Belinda's indie author journey
Reclaiming the creative soul

2003
First foray
My high school senior thesis culminated with the publication of Catching the Rose via Aventine Press. Learned I didn't know a lot about a lot, like marketing, and editing, and cover design. I got a dedicated interview slot on my local news station!

2010
Bright Bird Press
Celebrating our first step into true indie publishing by creating the Bright Bird Press imprint and publishing Haunting Miss Trentwood through Smashwords, AuthorsRepublic, and CreateSpace (now Amazon KDP).
This is also the era of my Etsy store, where I combined my love of bullet journaling with my love of writing. Thus, the Bright Bird Press stationery collection was created.

2021
Begining anew
After winning the 2017 international Self-Publishing Review award for The Last April, I realized I wanted fantasy in my historical stories.
Thankfully, during a midnight feeding of my infant, Tessa leapt onto the scene. "Miss Preston's Predicament" opened the door to the Hesitant Mediums universe, and I've never looked back.
And then I saw what Hanna Sandvig and Ireen Chau were doing (illustrating their own books)! I ran to my nearest art store to brush up my skills. Four years of formal drawing classes in high school surely couldn't be for nothing!
