          Biography
              I'm an Anishinaabe-kwe from Treaty 9 who writes stories about Indigenous and Queer characters (preferably both at the same time). Currentlym I have a traditionally published fantasy romance series The Halfling Saga and will be releasing self-published sapphic romances later in 2024. I love board games, movies, and being by a lake with my dog.
