While I don’t write a ton of winter stories, it’s without question one of my favorite times of year. Not a lot of things I like better than sitting in front of a fire with a cup of hot cider while it snows outside. Then there’s the morning after a snowfall, with that quiet serenity of an unbroken blanket of snow, when even the normal noises of the world are muffled and distant.
So it’s probably not the biggest shock that my winter project this year is (yes, yet another) retelling of Snow White. Coming in January!
Prince Carwyn is going to be crowned in less than a week when he overhears a conversation he wasn’t meant to—one that precipitates his swift flight from the castle, pursued by Gareth, the loyal huntsman who wants nothing more than to keep him safe.

I promised more information on my upcoming projects, so here’s one that’s in the works for an anthology in 2021: An Urban Fantasy retelling of Puss in Boots.
The plot:
Luke Miller’s parents just died, and his greedy brothers turned him out of the only home he’s ever known, with little more than his clothes and his cat, Wentworth. In his quest to find stability and somewhere to belong, Luke stumbles across an apparently abandoned mansion, a mystery surrounding the neighbor who left Wentworth in his care, and a whole lab worth of shattered glass, all of which conspire to change his life not only for good, but for the better.
