Brief Intro—Hoping to make some new friends at the conference!

Hello all, I’m a Christian author of YA-level Epic Fantasy and Science Fiction hailing from Ohio. I grew up reading Fantasy of all kinds, eventually edging into the Sci-Fantasy genre when I began my most recent series (third and final book coming out soon). 2025 was my first full year as a self-published writer, and it was quite humbling given my current marketing skills. I’ve been posting a lot of my stuff on Royal Road, however, slowly building a following there, and working on future series, so I’m treating it all like an investment. I’m excited to meet some new author friends particularly at this conference, because I’ve really struggled with forming any sort of writer’s group, particularly any who happen to be of similarly conservative mind. For any curious, here’s a link to my list of works.
