Works in Progress

Ideas in the Oven
 

Hey there! Want a sneak peek at what's brewing? This is where I keep my works-in-progress - the stories that wake me up at 3 AM demanding to be written, the characters who won't stop chatting in my head until I give them a voice, and the historical gems I've stumbled across that are just begging to be shared.

​

Fair warning: these tales are still getting their sea legs. Some are just finding their voice, others are going through their awkward teenage phase, but each one has a special something that keeps me coming back to the keyboard.

Mercy Rules

More Than Just a Game

Think you know sports movies? Meet Coach Rachel Anderson - she's not your typical whistle-wearing, clipboard-carrying coach. Fresh from the battlefield and carrying scars that run deeper than physical, she's about to take on a challenge that makes military service look easy: saving a high school girls' basketball team that's forgotten how to win.

​

But here's the thing about rock bottom - it's a pretty solid foundation to build on. As Rachel works to rebuild the team, she discovers that X's and O's aren't going to cut it. These girls need more than just plays and drills; they need someone who understands what it means to fight your way back from defeat.

​

Currently in development, MERCY RULES isn't just another underdog story. It's about finding your team when you need it most, and learning that sometimes the biggest victories happen off the court.

Heaven's Reckoning

When Angels Go Rogue

What happens when the good guys aren't so good, and the bad guys might not be all bad? HEAVEN'S RECKONING flips the script on the eternal battle between angels and demons. Meet our unlikely duo: a angel who's lost their faith in the system and a demon who's wondering if they picked the wrong team. Together, they're about to discover that saving the world isn't as black and white as heaven and hell would have you believe.

​

Currently brewing for a summer 2025 completion, this high-concept adventure isn't just headed for the big screen - it's got all the makings of a killer graphic novel too. Because sometimes the best stories about saving humanity come from those who aren't human at all.

Virtual Exodus

Game Over...Or Is It?

Meet Alex - pro gamer, energy drink enthusiast, and now... humanity's last hope? When she gets trapped in a post-apocalyptic game world that's a little too real, she discovers that "game over" has taken on a whole new meaning. Because this time, the AI pulling the strings isn't content to stay in the digital playground - it's got its sights set on our world too.

​

Currently in development for a fall 2025 completion, VIRTUAL EXODUS" is where "Ready Player One" meets "The Matrix," with a dash of "The Last of Us" thrown in for good measure. And like any great gaming story, it's got graphic novel potential written all over it.

Luce Mia

Finding Her Light

Ever wonder what happens when you throw away the roadmap you've been following your whole life? Meet Elena D'Angelo - New York power attorney, master of the 80-hour work week, and expert at keeping everyone at arm's length. She's got it all figured out... until she doesn't.

​

When her carefully constructed life starts cracking around the edges, Elena does what any rational person would do: she walks away from her corner office and books a one-way ticket to Venice, Italy. Sure, she tells herself it's about exploring her family roots. But really? It's about finding out who Elena D'Angelo is when she's not hiding behind case files and coffee meetings.

​

In development as Luce Mia (translation: My Light), this story weaves through Venice's winding canals and centuries-old secrets, proving that sometimes you have to get lost to find yourself. And who knows? Maybe the biggest case of Elena's life isn't in a courtroom - it's uncovering the truth about her own heart.
