🌷Hello! I'm Bri: a writer, cosplay enthusiast, cellist and singer, and self-taught graphic designer/illustrator. (Read: I am a busy geek and my quarantine hobby was to start learning to create fan art for my own stories...)
🌷I write about friendship, family, love, loss, mercy, forgiveness, joy and pain. Sometimes that's in the context of magic fantasy worlds, and sometimes it's not.
🌷Current work: The Ársa Series
Book 1: The Way of the Sea - set on an Irish island in 1945 as well as in the magical world of Ársa. [Current word count: 57,838]
🌷Rewrite: The Crowns of Crecidia series
Book 1: Fight - set in the fictional land of Crecidia, this was 14-year-old-me's first attempt at Christian Fiction set in a medieval adventure. (Not fantasy). Currently working on the second draft!
