Sera, Lily & The Fox Prince A Journey to #1 New Release on Amazon
A Milestone for Sera, Lily & The Fox Prince has been reached!

Today I am sharing an accomplishment that I honestly had not even considered before it happened.

On February 26, 2026, Sera, Lily & The Fox Prince was named #1 New Release in Classic Coming-of-Age Fiction on Amazon!

I am so deeply grateful. This is a celebration that I am holding onto for the moment is the direct result of craft, leadership, and identity.

Craft is the quiet part that people don’t always see. It’s the countless revisions. The belaboring over each and every punctuation. It’s learning to uncover the magic of what your story is actually about and having the courage to rewrite it until it finally matches the feeling in your chest you want to emulate.

Leadership, in the indie author world, often looks like leading yourself. Choosing consistency and learning how to be disciplined. Creating the structure behind creating and keeping to imaginary deadlines where no one else is holding you accountable. Holding to those standards even when you’re bone tired.

Identity is what remains when the excitement wears off. The sentence you return to when you’re not sure that you are supposed to be doing this. I am a writer. I finish what I start. I create worlds.

If you’re new here, Sera, Lily & The Fox Prince is a YA fantasy about two sisters, a forbidden forest, and the kind of courage I call wild-hearted bravery—the bravery that shows up while your hands are still trembling.

Are You Brave Enough to Adventure Into the Netherwood?

Two sisters. One forbidden forest.

Lily was named for the white lilies of the field, pale as winter moonlight, serene and thoughtful until the moment her temper flashes and proves quiet does not mean weak. Sera—Seraphina—is honey-fire, quick-witted, fearless, and impossible to ignore, her laughter filling rooms as if it belongs there.

They’ve been warned their whole lives to stay out of the Netherwood.

But when the sisters rescue a small white fox and uncover a strange red-stoned pendant—an ancient relic whispered to be the Heart of Unity—they realize this isn’t just a haunted forest.

It’s a curse.

And the one who cast it is still out there: the Gnome, clever as poison, greedy as hunger, and obsessed with power—and with turning trust into a weapon. He doesn’t just want to win. He wants them to suffer.

Now Lily’s quiet strength and Sera’s fire must hold against riddles, trials, and bargains designed to split them in two because the Netherwood doesn’t attack from the outside.

It creeps in.

It learns your voice.

And it uses darkness to convince you to turn on the people you love most.

Two Days Until Launch
We Are Finally Here

It is hard to believe that we are only two days away from the digital launch of my debut YA fantasy novel, Sera, Lily & The Fox Prince. I’ve been writing, revising, world-building, and (lovingly) obsessing over this story for more than two years–and somehow, it’s finally time to send it off into the world.

Where it All Began

This path unfurled when I decided upon my next adventure: I wanted to write a children’s fantasy story rooted in goodness for my then 7 and 9-year-old daughters.

Something warm.

Something brave.

Something meaningful.

What started as a picture book idea with a moral lesson and a hidden twist (the kind you talk about over dinner) grew into something bigger: a 19-chapter, coming-of-age YA novel centered on two sisters–14 and 15–whose love for each other is tested by hinting shadows, old magic, and a forest that doesn’t just surround you…

…it learns you.

I have been pouring my heart and soul into these pages. I cannot wait for you to step into this world alongside me.

Get Your Early Reader Materials

Tomorrow (the day before the release), I’m sharing a special bundle of early reader goodies–perfect if you’re excited to preview the story, share it with a friend, or help spread the word.

Here’s what will be available:
- Early release of the first chapter
Head on over to my contact page and sign up to receive it directly in your inbox.

Where to Get Your Digital Copy

I’m self-publishing through KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing), and you’ll be able to grab the ebook as soon as it drops.

(And if you prefer Kindle, you’ll also be able to find it through Amazon via KDP.)

Download it directly from the Books page.

When is The Hardcover Copy Being Released
