2026 Schedule of Events (So Far)

I’m making a real effort next year to show up more often, meet readers in person, and build community beyond a single download. Here’s what’s on the calendar so far, with more in the works!

January 11
Blue Hummingbird Coffee, 13844 Alton Parkway #135, Irvine CA

Come watch a live interview with Nathen from BookBase, then get your books signed and ask me anything after the recording is over! Paperbacks of Forged in Shadow will be available for sale. 

January 24
The Macabre Mysterium Presents the Bookish Bazaar at Weir Beer in Vista, CA

This will be my first Bookish Bazaar, and I’m really excited to see how it goes. If it’s a good fit, I’d love to make this a recurring thing and return again later in the year.

February 10
Quenched in Secrets launches on all retail platforms

This one has been a long time coming, and I can’t wait for it to officially be out in the world! (Pre-orders open!)

March 27–29
WonderCon in Anaheim

This is one of my favorite shows every year. It has all the Comic Con energy I love, but on a slightly more manageable scale, which means more time to actually chat with readers and enjoy the cosplay.

April 18–19
LA Times Festival of Books at USC

USC is my alma mater! And the LA Festival of Books is the largest book fair in the country (or so they say). I’m thrilled to be returning to the Aah! Real Indie Authors booth on Trousdale, near Taper Hall.

June 13–14
Hellmouth Con in Torrance, CA

Another first for me, Hellmouth Con is a celebration of all things Buffy fandom, held at the actual high school where the show was filmed! 

July 26
San Diego Comic Con (Sunday only!)

I’ll be sharing a table with Aah! Real Indie Authors and will be there just for one day, but SDCC always feels like a whirlwind worth stepping into.

Most fall events haven’t opened applications yet, but my goal for 2026 is to average one event a month. If you ever feel like coming out to say hi, I’d love that. And if not, just knowing you’re cheering me on from afar still means a lot.
