Grave Mistakes
Gabriela's first trip to the city doesn't end well, but she's sure Mama can fix things. What starts as 'girl meets boy, boy oversteps, girl shoves boy down a flight of steps' follows a quest of redemption, adventure, self-discovery, and heartbreak. Will Gabriela overcome her mother's past, or will she make more grave mistakes?
Author, cat dad, martial artist, whiskey lover, nerd
The Chronicler's Awakening started over twenty years ago as a disjointed collection of video game fan fiction, around the same time that I briefly trained in taekwondo. I quit both when my grandmother passed away. More than seventeen years later, in my mid-thirties, I restarted my martial art instruction. As I neared my black belt testing, I thought of what other projects I started and never finished. As with Lone, that was a long list. It took close to three years but I ended up with a story and characters I enjoyed writing about. I have the people and places of Poas in my mind and through the magic of writing, I can invite others to join me there.
