I had the honor of being hosted for a GabTALKS short at BookCAMP 2026 with the wonderful Gabby Olczak. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to share more about the book, the story behind it, and where to find it.

Falcon Review by Printed Word Reviews

I’m pleased to share that my debut novel, “Everlasting”, has been featured in an editorial review

by Falcon Review, from Printed Word Reviews.

 

The review highlights the novel’s focus on layered timelines, memory, and the internal architecture of its world, as well as its emphasis on atmosphere and the protagonist’s evolving search for truth over conventional pacing.

I’m particularly appreciative of the attention given to the book’s structural complexity and thematic direction, especially its framing as a “coming-of-truth” story rather than a traditional coming-of-age narrative.

 

For readers drawn into immersive world-building and intricate, non-linear storytelling, more information about “Everlasting” can be found here: https://www.printedwordreviews.com/bookreviews/978-1035872183

You’ll also find Printed Word’s Book Review of Everlasting, offering a closer look into the novel’s depth and the themes that lie at its core. Seeing the story described as a journey that moves beyond coming-of-age and toward a coming-of-truth experience offered a thoughtful perspective on the novel.

NYC Big Book Award

Writing teaches patience more than certainty.

Most of the work happens quietly, drafts that go nowhere,

ideas that don’t land, hours that never get seen.
This recognition comes from staying with the work anyway.
Choosing to write, again and again, because the process itself matters.

Proof that persistence shapes outcomes and that doing what you care about, consistently and honestly, can take you further than expected.

I’m really looking forward to meeting inspiring minds and connecting with fellow authors.

There is no map for what comes after the last word is written.

You release the story into the wild, hoping it finds the readers it was meant for, and then you keep forging new paths.

So when the work is seen: especially by a city built on language, narrative, and story, it means something.


Third award. Same story... an Everlasting story.

International Impact Book Awards - Gala

The International Impact Book Awards Gala was truly unforgettable.
