Books
Novels and collections — the longer roads.
The Cartographer of Small Hours
Every night, Wren maps the sleeping city for a department that may not exist. When maps of un-built places begin arriving in her own hand, she has to decide whether she's charting the future or writing it. A novel about the loneliness of small hours and the quiet power of paying attention.
The Weight of Blue
A restorer of damaged paintings takes a commission she can't explain — a canvas that changes when no one is looking. Part ghost story, part meditation on grief and the things we can't quite finish.
Everything the Tide Returns
Twelve linked stories set along a single stretch of coast, across a century of tides. A lighthouse keeper, a girl who collects other people's letters, a town that remembers a storm that never came.
North of Ordinary
Two estranged siblings drive north to scatter their father's ashes and find the map he left them leads somewhere that isn't on any map. A road novel about the distance between people who share a name.
A note on reading order
The books stand alone — start anywhere. Readers who like a slow build tend to begin with Everything the Tide Returns; those who want a single thread pull, North of Ordinary. New work is announced first in the newsletter.
