zine and project notes

i've been a mod for various fan projects since 2016! this includes fan weeks, zines, and secret santas. i've also run social media for multiple school and professional positions, and have experience in both the traditional and independent publishing industry.i've helped to moderate events with over 400 people participating, and know my way around discord, google apps, notion, and airtable. i have been the lead or co-lead of multiple zines! i was the lead mod of lion lilies which donated over $7,500 to raphael house of portland and the finance, production, and shipping mod for where i can follow which donated over $11,200 to big brothers, big sisters of america.

available!

Ren has been in love with his best friend for the past three years. He has no intention of confessing, but he can't seem to move on.
Calliope has spent most of her life dancing. She's decided to put other interests before it now, but it's hard to let go of something she fought so hard for.
Ingrid plans to start over in college, to go beyond what held her back in high school. It's much easier in theory than in practice.
Less Than Three is a collection of three short stories about a group of friends. Together, they shoulder their way through romance, all-nighters, and the occasional dragon.

unnamed gampire (gay vampire) book

draft 1.5

Transferring in the middle of senior year wasn't in Milo's plans, but now he's in the middle of Maine living with his aunt and starting over. He's got his favorite book to ground him and not much else, until an eccentric group of friends decides he's part of their group. But what about the mysterious boy who Milo ran into on his first day?
