When I first began writing, I thought I had to choose a lane—thriller, mystery, science fiction, fantasy—and stick to it. But stories don’t always respect boundaries. Neither do the characters who live in them.
Over time, I realized I was more interested in the overlap: the tension of a thriller, the puzzle of a mystery, the what-if lens of suspense fiction. These elements kept showing up in my work, not as separate components, but as a single, layered voice. I wasn’t “genre-hopping”—I was building stories that needed more than one container.
For me, the lines are blurred as the genres seem to overlap. A mystery can have a thriller pacing; a thriller can involve a central mystery; and suspense can be the tone that binds them both. You don’t have to choose between solving a puzzle and racing against time—you can do both.
I write at the crossroads of “what if” and “what now.” My stories may not always fit neatly on a bookstore shelf, but they reflect how I see the world—complex, unpredictable, and deeply interconnected.
For readers, I hope this mashup delivers a richer experience: suspense that keeps you turning pages, mysteries that make you think, and thrilling twists that linger long after the final chapter.
