My favourite genres to write are dark fantasy, dystopian with a hint of supernatural, horror, and crime. I also write sci-fi, dark academia, and dark romance with morally grey characters.
Book two of the Prima Materia series will hopefully be released in 2026. The third and last of the series will come at a later date.
Prima Materia is a dark fantasy/dark academia series set in an alternative 1800s Europe. It contains a lot of spice on the page, enemies to lovers, supernatural and horror themes, a secret cult, puzzle and riddles, black and grey morality, over one-hundred-year old but still hot characters, space-time arts, sovereigns and royalty, criminal gangs, men into puppet transformation, hot professors, paradoxes, and many more!
My favourite stories are those by Stephen King (Salem’s Lot and Pet Sematary are among my top ten!), George R.R. Martin, and Margaret Atwood, but I also loved the Hunger Games series. I won’t nominate a certain two that became a little delusional over the years… Anyway, my very first encounter with stories was with Disney animations. My favorites are Robin Hood, The Lion King, and The Little Mermaid. Another significant influence for me were comics like Dragon Ball, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Saiyuki, Mars, and Family Compo.
If I don’t write, I’m probably drawing. If I’m not drawing, I’m probably reading. If I’m not reading, I’m probably infodumping on random things I will never need in my life, like how Space-Time works or how Rosicrucian initiation works. I’m thirsty for information that can become a cool plot. Or maybe I’m just attending another emo or metalcore gig.
For my neurodivergent mind, listening to songs with lyrics while writing is impossible. Some genres like classical, epic music, binaural beats, jazz, or ambient are safe, though.
Normally, I listen to metal, rock, metalcore, emo, gothic rock, industrial or nu metal. Here is a playlist I’ve created for ‘Prima Materia. ’ I use it when I have to plot some parts. Enjoy!
My books will be self-published for now. I may consider traditional publishing only in some instances.
