Intro Whether they’re best friends, romantic partners, or mentor and mentee, I’ve always loved writing partners. Part of it probably comes from the fact that partners are a pretty common theme in the stuff that I like, but another part of it is just that they’re really fun to write. Two characters who are always…

Intro Ever since he was first introduced in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Winter Soldier has always been one of my favorite Marvel characters. He’s a great character, complete with a tragic backstory, a serious personality, and, of course, a cool metal arm. But you don’t have to be an existing fan to enjoy this…

I’ve got lots of fond memories of binge reading it over the course of multiple summer vacations (yes, it’s so long that it lasted me multiple summer vacations), so it’s kind…

Intro I’ve loved animals for pretty much as long as I can remember, so it’s only natural that they often play a role in the things that I write. Whether they’re loyal companions that do what they can to help their humanoid friends or pesky trouble makers that help lighten the mood, I don’t really…

And that’s why Xier is a workaholic. I’ve wanted to try something goofy like this for a while, and I might have had a little too much fun. I suspect I’ll be making more of these in the future.

Intro There are lots of middle-grade books about animals, and there are also lots of middle-grade books about magic. The Familiars basically just mashes those two things together, and you can trust me when I say it’s awesome. It’s like Harry Potter and Warriors rolled into one, and it works better than you might think.…
