Hameln debuts this Halloween
My debut novel, a historical fantasy retelling of the Pied Piper of Hameln,
follows a group of teens trying to unravel the mystery of their cursed town.
I’m a writer, editor & reader
who loves horror, otters & travel.
I create things sometimes.
I have opinions all the times.
