I’m thrilled to announce my first Author Talk for my debut novel, Catching Qat!
If you’re in the Southern California area, mark your calendars for a special lunchtime event where we’ll dive deep into the world of assassins, cooks, magical elves, and dragon eggs.

Event Details
What We’ll Be Discussing
This isn’t just a reading; it’s a conversation! I’ll be discussing the core themes of the novel, revealing how the characters—like the tiny cook Bell and the ruthless assassin Qat—came to life, and walking you through the magic and lore of the world.
The second half of the event will be a Q&A session, so come prepared with all your questions about the story, the characters, or my writing process!
Exclusive Book Discount
To celebrate the event, I’ll have copies of Catching Qat available for purchase on-site at a special price: 30% off the retail price! Plus, 10% of all sales will be donated to the library. It’s the perfect chance to get a signed copy and support the library.
Join the Community (and RSVP!)
I’ve also just launched a brand new Discord server for readers to get announcements, ask me questions directly, and chat about the fantasy genre! It’s a great place to find exclusive behind-the-scenes content and be the first to hear about the next book.
You can get the link to the event page and instant access to the Discord Server by clicking the button below:
I can’t wait to meet you, chat about the book, and share some exciting details about what’s next for the world of Catching Qat. See you there!
P.S. If you can’t make it, join the Discord server anyway! It’s the best way to stay in the loop for future events.
