I've been writing for as long as I can remember, as cliche as that may sound. I remember being no older than eight years old with several coil notebooks already filled with hundreds of stories that I dreamt up. I never imagined I could publish, being from a small suburb outside of Toronto and not having much confidence in putting my work out into the world. However, thanks to a teacher in high school who believed in me more than I believed in myself, I found the courage to publish my short stories in the Polar Expressions Canadian Writing Contest and was featured several times throughout my high school career. Once I was in college, I didn't want to stop writing and took an online class on how to properly write and formulate a romance that readers couldn't put down...that's where I came up with the idea for Courtesy Of, and published it in March 2023. Since then, I've had the pleasure of growing my community, my Advanced Reader Copy team as well as writing more novellas like the Toronto Blues Series, Christmas In Scrubs and Behind The Scenes; and that's only the beginning.
