Currently Seeking

Accessible language is highly favored over loftiness (unless done for intentional, artistic purposes). Abstract concepts need to be grounded with concrete images.

She is especially interested in memoirs that center the voices and experiences of people of color.

Christian romance novels that have dynamic, complex characters and don’t rely solely on the main love interest to drive the plot forward.
