Book Cover Reveal!
One of the great joys of writing a novel is reaching the moment when readers get their first glimpse of the world you've spent so long creating.
I'm delighted to share the official cover of Adverse Events.
Thank you for being part of this adventure.
Adverse Events will be published by Spectrum Books on September 18, 2026.
I've signed with Spectrum Books!
Publishing with one of the world's premier LGBTQ+ presses
I’m excited to share that Adverse Events will be published by Spectrum Books, a UK-based publisher committed to LGBTQ+ visibility and community. Spectrum is known for championing bold, character-driven stories and for building a global readership for queer fiction across genres.
Adverse Events is a queer medical thriller set in a near-future United States shaped by dismantled healthcare oversight and institutional failure. The novel will be released in late summer/early fall and distributed worldwide.
I’m proud to be joining Spectrum’s roster of authors and to be working with a publisher whose commitment to visibility, care, and community support is central to its mission. Spectrum’s dedication to championing queer stories—and to materially supporting LGBTQ+ charities—reflects the values that drew me to this partnership. I look forward to sharing more about the novel, the series, and the publication journey in the months ahead.
