Sunflowers
&
Shadows

A debut collection of poetry written at the edge of love, grief, memory, sensuality, and self-reckoning. These poems hold the brightness and the bruise in the same hand.

Built from contrast, the collection moves through devotion, rupture, ache, tenderness, and the long discipline of remaining open after being changed.

TIDES

The World of Sa’ Reyen is a richly imagined arcanapunk tabletop roleplaying world of airships, ancient sigils, crystal-powered wonders, political tension, and tide-worn mysteries. Across storm-dark skies and fractured kingdoms, players navigate a setting where magic is engineered, alliances are fragile, and every voyage may uncover a secret powerful enough to reshape the world.
