ABOUT THE AUTHOR
You know…
I have always been drawn to magic. Ever since I was a child, I dreamed of worlds filled with such adventure and wonder that the real world simply… could not compete.
My professional life is the exact opposite of those dreams. I earn my living in a world of logic. Of code, algorithms, and calculations. It is grounded and precise, but it lacks the "wings" I have always craved.
So eventually, I made a promise to myself to take flight toward those distant, magical lands. In doing so, I realized something simple yet profound: those worlds were never truly distant. They were right here, within my grasp, waiting to be discovered, cherished, and shared.
Because it would be a shame to keep them to myself.
I invite you to take flight and dream along with me.
And I am thrilled to welcome you to my debut series: Custodians.
This world was born from a simple "what if" inspired by my lifelong fascination with gemstones. I began to imagine what it would truly mean for us to bind with a crystal and gain unique magical abilities. But the wonder does not stop there.
Because of my deep love for animals, I have envisioned a world where ancient beasts are more than just creatures. They are Gods who guide, teach, and work alongside humanity, each possessing their own distinct magic and spirit.
All these elements are pieces of my own life that I cherish, woven into a story that explores the core of the human experience: our strengths and weaknesses, our hunger for power, and our enduring yearning for love.
I cannot wait for you to meet the characters and dive into this world.
I have come to love it deeply, and I hope you will, too.
Feeling a connection?
I’d be happy to stay in touch!
