Coming Soon: Chicago Steampunk Exposition!
Come listen to a gothic tale from an unforgettable trip to the Chicago World’s Fair in an alternate 1893!
The Chicago Steampunk Exposition schedule has been posted ! I'm excited to announce that I'll have a table at the convention at Printers' Row where I'll be showcasing my latest works. In addition, I will be giving a reading from my Strange Happenings series on Friday, April 14th at 8:30 pm in the Mahogany V Lecture Hall. If you're in the Chicago area, come say hi!
For those who are not familiar with my series, Strange Happenings is a gaslamp fantasy series set in an alternate timeline where steampunk technology collides with the monstrous. During the reading, I will be sharing a selection from the series, so you'll get a chance to experience the world of Strange Happenings firsthand.
After the reading, I'll be hosting a Q&A session where I'll be happy to answer questions about my stories, alternate history, favorite steampunk tropes, and more! Don't miss out on this fun opportunity to dive into the world of steampunk and gaslamp fantasy.

Monsters, mad science, and recklessly brave women collide in an unforgettable trip to the 1893 World’s Fair.
Fireman Rosie dreams of attending the Columbian Exposition for a glimpse of her hero, Nikola Tesla. When she is assigned to an overnight train bound for Chicago, she jumps at the chance. Her shift takes a dark turn when a peculiar trunk is discovered, and a passenger goes missing. Caught in a nightmare, Rosie must use her wit and courage to uncover the truth behind the mysterious cargo before more passengers disappear.
