Perhaps! If you need a Beta reader, ARC reader, or just general feedback on your book I might be able to read it depending on how much I have on my own plate.

Fire and Starlight Content

What is "New Adult"?

New adult is an emerging genre that combines the themes, feel, and tropes of Young Adult books but approaches them from a more mature angle that appeals more to adults. The main characters tend to be a little than in YA, most of them ranging between the ages of eighteen and their mid- to late twenties, and the problems they face have less to do with coming of age and the typical problems associated with teens.

Does this series contain any sensitive or triggering content?

There are some aspects of the story that may be sensitive for some readers. Content warnings for each book can be viewed here.

What is the recommended age for this series?

This series is best for ages 16 years and older.

How many books are in the series? Is it complete?

Yes, the series is complete and contains four main books and three novellas. There are also additional short stories and conus chapters available on my Patreon. (View Patreon Stories.)

Do I have to read the novellas?

No, the novellas are not required reading for the series to makes sense, but I do recommend reading them to give you insight to certain characters and to create a more complete story.

Does this series contain any queer characters?

While it may not appear this way at first, most of the characters you meet throughout the Fire and Starlight Saga are queer. There are lots of hints in the first book, The Night the Stars Fell, but as you get to know the characters better later in the series, it becomes very evident. View some of the queer rep.

Does this series contain on-page sex or spice?

There is no sex in the first book, The Night the Stars Fell. Future books have a little bit, but I'm mostly a fade-to-gray or fade-to-black author. This means that I make it pretty clear what is happening, but I don't write out a full play-by-play. 

Does this series contain violence?

Yes, my books do have some violence that varies throughout the series. Most of the time, the violence is not overtly graphic or descriptve. You can view a list of content warnings here for more information.

Fate of Elodia Content

Does this series contain any sensitive or triggering content?

There are some aspects of the story that may be sensitive for some readers. Content warnings for each book can be viewed here.

What is the recommended age for this series?

This series is best for ages 18 years and older.

Does this series contain violence?

Yes. Most of the time, the violence is not overtly graphic or descriptive, but it does occur on page more than once. You can view a list of content warnings here for more information.

Does this series contain any queer characters?

I think the better question is "Does this series contain any straight characters?". But to answer the first question, yes. While their queerness is not always immediately obvious, almost every single character is queer in one way or another. However, this series does not focus on queer trauma or specifically to dealing with being queer. These are simply queer characters existing in a relatively queer normative world.

How many books are in the series? Is it complete?

This series is currently intended to be a duology. I hope to have it completed in early 2025.

Does this series contain on-page sex or spice?

Yes. The spice in the first book is realtively brief and not overly graphic, but it is not closed-door or fade-to-black.
