Did you know I write books too?

Forbidden Pages (Embers and Ashes Book 1)

Asher Wright has never turned down a dare in his life.

When he sneaks into an abandoned house on a dare, he doesn't expect to find anything more than dusty furniture and cobwebs. Instead, he finds a book the world forgot existed, a Bible, hidden away in a world where physical books have been banned and history can be updated and manipulated digitally.

The more Asher and his sister Ember read, the more they realize someone very much wants that book to stay forgotten.

Now someone is watching their house. Their school is asking questions. And a neighbor named Calder keeps showing up with a plastic smile that never quite reaches his eyes.

The more answers they discover inside those thin, fragile pages, the more dangerous the questions become, and the more Asher and Ember begin to wonder if they found the book, or if the book found them.

Perfect for fans of middle-grade adventure and dystopian fiction, Forbidden Pages is Book 1 of the Embers and Ashes series. It's a story about two siblings, one banned book, and the dangerous discovery that some truths are worth fighting for no matter the cost.

For readers ages 8–13 who love action, suspense, adventure, sibling stories, and books that make them think.

His truth doesn't burn.

Truth's Echo

Truth is rewritten. Books are forbidden. And Shawn Seeker just inherited a secret that could get him killed.

In a near future where the past is tightly controlled and dangerous to remember, twenty-five-year-old Shawn Seeker is drawn into a mystery he never asked to solve. At his grandfather’s funeral, a stranger appears with a cryptic box, a handwritten letter, and a chilling warning: the history you know never happened.

What begins as curiosity soon pulls Shawn into a deadly conspiracy where faith is forbidden, truth is erased, and silence is enforced at any cost. To survive, Shawn must decide. Will he walk away, or rise as the man his grandfather always believed he could be, a Seeker of Truth?

Truth’s Echo is a fast-paced dystopian thriller about legacy, sacrifice, and the price of uncovering what others want buried.
