Murders happen. Life goes on. Just make sure it doesn't happen to you. Richard is determined not only to survive but to come out on top. When a newcomer threatens Globe Prep's delicate social hierarchy, a deadly power play ensues.



Based off of Shakespeare's Richard III, chronologically after 'The Sixth' and 'Henriad' but they don't need to be read in order. Feels like a black-teen comedy, like Heathers. 

Trigger/Content Warning: violence throughout, mention of an eating disorder, family trauma, peril, and some distressing imagry. Some teenage sexual content, teenage characters discuss sex, two characters are stated to have had sex, and are shown in bed, partially clothed. Some brief crude teen dialogue.

Rose and Swan Boarding School's social heirarchy is disrupted with the arrival of a new student who catches the eye of the star of the hockey team. Can Edward and Gaveston keep their relationship a secret from the malicious student body and faculty? Definitely not. Rose and Swan is a highly religious boarding school nestled deep in the mountains. It's the perfect place to hide, but Edward is about to find out you can't hide from yourself. He had no problem hiding his sexuality, not until Piers Gaveston, his new roommate, shows up. Based loosely on Kit Marlowe's play 'Edward II'. Feels like a teen rom-com. I wrote this as the book I wished I'd had as a teenager, that is to say I wanted it to be a sort of comforting, relatable world, as well as genuinely fun. That said it does follow the basic plot of the play so there are some unsettling scenes. Namely Chapters: 15, and 23 on. (If you think the cover is too gay I assure you it's what Marlowe would have wanted. If you think the book is too gay I PROMISE you, it's what Marlowe would have wanted). Trigger/Content Warning: some graphic violence that may be disturbing to some readers (chapters 21--on, Epilogue is fine). Some teenage sexuality (teenagers kiss, it is implied teenagers have sex, chapter 19 primarily, but all scenes are PG-13 level sensuality). Brief teenage level crude humor. Self harm is discussed throughout (worst depiction in chapter 14). Conversion therapy discussed at length and briefly depicted (Chapter 15). A character suffers from gender dyphoria and is dead-named on page (chapter 20). Graphic violence/torture after Chapter 21. Be aware of your mental state and seek help as needed.

You Don't Want the Crown

46 parts Complete

Betrayal. Revenge. Murder. True Love. Knights. Princesses. Druids. Pirates. Madness. Gays. Magic. Intrigue. What more could you want from this darkly funny take on faerie tales? The old king is murdered. The crown prince is missing. Who in this diverse cast of characters is to blame? Is it the king's reluctant but dutiful wife? Is it the spiteful old queen? Is it the king's illegitimate son? What about the king's suspiciously loyal man-at-arms? Read and find out. Plenty of swashbuckling, magic, sarcasm, and plot twists await in the mythical land of Ulster. Trigger/Content warning: Violence, but primarily fantasy violence. Profanity throughout. Some brief crude humor. Some conversations and circumstances may be emotionally upsetting, primarily to do with parental abuse, as well as dysphoria. A character is stated to be suicidal, suicide is discussed. A character describes post-partum depression.
