The world of Descended does not end on the page
Join the Akasha Family
My newsletter is where I take readers behind the veil of the Descended series: the creative decisions, the character obsessions, the research trails, and the 1990s details that refuse to leave me alone. It is intimate, irregular, and intentional. I do not send emails to feed an algorithm or fill a calendar. I send them when there is something worth sharing.
No spam. No noise. Just a direct line from me to you, written with the hope that when it lands in your inbox, you will actually want to open it.
What Awaits You
What Readers Receive
Behind the Story
The research, references, 1990s details, and strange little threads that shaped the Descended series, including the pieces that never made it onto the page but still shaped the world around it.
Character Letters
Occasional letters from inside the world of Descended, including private moments between Indigo, Cordelia, and the Akasha family, written exclusively for subscribers and shared nowhere else.
New Releases & Extras
Updates on what I’m writing, revisiting, researching, or quietly building next, including notes from the desk, early thoughts, and glimpses of the stories taking shape behind the scenes.
I don’t write to feed an algorithm, and I don’t send emails just to keep a schedule warm. I write because something in me insists on being put into words. This newsletter follows the same rule: it goes out when there is something honest, useful, or meaningful to share, and not before. If that sounds like the kind of reading list you want to be on, I’d love to have you there.
