What’s that?
High fantasy takes place in another world, has a hard magic system, and high word counts. Urban fantasy takes place in our world, can have soft magic systems, and usually come in shorter books. My writing combines the two. Also, I just really like jazz.

My Favorite Disney Remake
There isn’t anything left to be said about this new Mulan remake, and I haven’t even seen it.
