“You become a writer by writing. There is no other way. So do it, do it more. Do it again. Do it better. Fail. Fail better.” — Margaret Atwood
About Me
Hi Everyone!
My name is Ashley & I am writing my debut novel in dystopian speculative fiction. It is a work in progress but I hope you join me wild journey of discovery and growth as I navigate the complexities of the writing, literary and publishing world.
I reside in East Austin TX with my partner ( Danny) and 3 fur baby rescue mutts ( Bently, Fredrik & Bruno). A self declared bibliophile and always a storyteller casting tales from a young age along the way I’ve typed away for various scholarships and minor publications. Now though, I’ve thrown myself into the realm of novel creation. When I’m not writing you can find me out in nature far from the chaos of the world, hiking, kayaking, enjoying good, inventive food or a matcha latte.At home my garden and library are my solitude though I deeply enjoy the artistic, quirky offerings of Austin. Having traveled the world each place and community has deeply impacted my life in ways I’m beyond grateful for. I can’t predict what’s next because it’s always an opportunity to take part and I’d rather hop on an adventurous side quest than die a bore.

Books in the Works
“In the near future the breathtaking yet haunting world of “Stasis” unfolds where instincts will keep you alive and rustling leaves mean more that what can be heard. Immersed in the gripping tale of Jessi- a young woman whose life has been turned upside down by a nation in political upheaval. A mesmerizing mountain forrest draped in fog, once a ravishing vacation retreat now her solitude amongst the dystopian military state in this new world.
Can you feel the crisp mountain air as it whispers its secrets? Jessi navigates this wilderness, drawing strength and solace from nature itself. Each day through survival, her senses heightened by the ever present threat of remaining undetected. Lurking beneath the surface is an ever present question: Is she truly alone in this vast expanse? What does the future hold? Does it even matter when tomorrow isn’t guaranteed?
“Stasis” invites you to explore a duality of worlds and survival. With every page this story challenges you to think deeply about resistance and existence, inviting you to questions the essence of what it means to endure.”
