I'm launching Iphigenia a feminist retelling of the Greek myth that gives voice to a girl history tried to erase.
For fans of Circe & Elektra.
Launching soon on Kickstarter.
I’m looking to connect with:
Myth lovers
indie book boosters
List curators!

’ve been captivated by retellings of Greek myths, especially those featuring figures like Helen and Clytemnestra. Yet, Iphigenia's story is often overlooked. Her sacrifice was essential for the voyage to Troy, and I want to give her a voice.

Why Iphigenia matters. Without her, there might not have been a war, as they may have lacked the strong winds needed to make their journey to Troy. Her sacrifice was meant to bring the winds, yet she is left without a voice! In my book, I give her the voice that she was denied.

She is the guardian of the manuscript; challenge her, and she will meet you with a fierce gaze that commands respect.

We have unlocked three of the five stretch goals, and the fourth one is very close to being unlocked. I can't express how grateful I am for the support Iphigenia has received.

There's nothing quite like stepping away from your writing to refresh your mind and indulge in some self-care.

Remember to be kind to yourself, you deserve it!

Support my Greek myth retelling on @kickstarter. It's all about Iphigenia and finally giving her a voice, rather than the two lines she's had in the myth.

Back now at: www.kickstarter.com/projects/172...

Exciting news: I’m finally putting together an author website!
I’d love to say I’m designing it all myself, but let’s be real… that’s not where my skills shine. Thankfully, I have two amazing friends who do know what they’re doing and are helping bring it to life.

fuck it, here's a cover reveal for my upcoming supernatural sapphic romantic thriller, "Undead Flowers: Blood on the Bay"!

no set release date as of yet, but I'm in the finishing touches of editing and will likely simply lowkey release it as an epub and pdf on itch later this month/early July :)
book cover featuring a closeup of a woman with a glowing red eye and another woman in a leather jacket behind her, both of whom in front of an image of the Golden Gate bridge. the atmosphere is a deep red, a large moon is in the sky, and thousands of bats fill the air. pink text at the top reads "Undead Flowers: Blood on the Bay" and the bottom text reads "Ruby Rockatansky"

I love writing and everything about it. But outside of that? My hobbies are.

📚 And of course, reading all the books I can get my hands on.

What about you? What are your creative outlets when you aren't writing?

The stunning cover of Iphigenia wouldn’t exist without the incredible work of @JGorobets; they brought myth, and emotion to the cover.
