The Work of St.Alia: The Writer's Knife
My authorial bio
Writing for me is tumultuous. Sometimes I go into a trance, and things come out of me that I didn't know were inside.
Other times, I can't stand the sound of my own words. Sometimes, the perfect amalgam of hate and love reveal a cohesive piece that makes sense and says something worth reading.
I want my characters, born from the collected stories of my life, to have a voice. And hopefully, entertain in the process! My genre is typically science fiction, fantasy, spec. fiction, and mystery. I have found that my characters don't stay in a box, they want to traverse the world of genres and bend it to their will.
How about a Mafia mama that can read your mind? Or taco's that empower you to be the best version of yourself? What if a child unknowingly chases her own death, through years of time travel and thieving?
These are the strange and lovely characters that are leaping from my mind to the page. I have spent a lifetime collecting stories, it's time for these tales to be put into the world!

Deep in the heart
Is a life and a lie
Waiting for the sun to grace
A face to show the shiny world
Masking a scarred and broken hole
Tasting the effects of a fallen race
Running true thick and strong
Is a line that can’t be blurred
If the mask does wane, wander, and drop
The life is left vulnerable and ruled
Judge and jury, let us say
That the lie that keeps us
Bids us fair, keeping pace
With hope and balancing despair.
