Antigone: Daughter of Thebes

Expected Publication Date: March 2026

A middle-school-friendly translation of Sophocles’ classic play that aims to provide an accessible, entertaining introduction to Greek tragedy.

The civil war in Thebes is over, and the twin brothers Eteocles and Polynices have killed each other fighting for the throne. When Creon, the new king, declares Polynices a public enemy and makes burying his corpse an offense punishable by death, Antigone, Polynices’ sister, risks her own life to do what she knows is right. Both a scathing denunciation of monarchy and a call to resist in the face of injustice, Antigone‘s message rings loud and clear even – perhaps especially – today. My edition provides a brief introduction to Greek theatre, a clear, concise translation, discussion questions, and additional passages for comparison.

Senna, The Strong One

Expected Publication Date: Winter 2026

This one is my white whale! I’ve been working on it since high school, and it is near and dear to my heart. In this nonmagical fantasy full of romance and political intrigue, a woman must fight to reclaim her homeland from the man who betrayed and killed her family. To do so, she seeks help from an unlikely source: the people she was raised to hate. (Does this sound like Dune? It is, at least in synopsis form, fairly similar to Dune. I’m a huge Frank Herbert stan and always have been. But there are plenty of details that make my story different…you’ll see!)
