COMING SOON...
NON-FICTION
Over the last few years I've been building: a book on learning to read the tarot; one on poetry forms; prompts for creative writing; and perhaps a few memoirs will hack their way to freedom.

I dip in and out of these projects whenever I am drawn, and because these things take time to develop...they could be a while yet, but I think definitely within the next year.
