The Splitting of
Lucinda Howe
Thirteen-year-old Lucinda Howe has always wanted one thing: A normal life. No crime syndicate. No controlling mother. No destiny she didn't choose.
Then a portal splits her in two.
One half of Lucinda lands on a hidden sentient planet that feels like the home she never had. The other half is left behind to navigate the world of magical masterminds, arranged betrothals, and a school that rewards competition above all else.
When the two halves finally find each other, the choice to become whole again may cost one of them everything she's fought to become.

As a writer, my dream is to capture your imagination and never let it go. My debut trilogy is the culmination of that dream: The Splitting of Lucinda Howe, which follows a thirteen-year-old girl split in two by a portal accident. It's a story about identity, belonging, and what it costs to become whole.
Through this story, I have reveled in creating worlds that are bigger than they first appear, where science, magic, fantasy and the real world intertwine. And yes, there are creatures, familiar and new, and a soul-matched dog. More than one, actually.
I'm currently writing book one of the trilogy. Come along, join the adventure, help me name some of the dogs, or sign up to become a beta reader. I can't wait to meet you.
