HEY! I'M NICOLE.

By day, I am a computer engineer who designs for healthcare and by...er...very early morning, I am a novel, play, and short story writer. 

A self-proclaimed "story nerd", I love diving deep into my favourite books, TV shows, and musicals - you can find more info on that on the 'Writing freebie' page!

I write YA contemporary, action/adventure heists, and adult historical fiction. In 2023, my goal is to dip my toe into the query trenches and I will share the journey every step of the way!
