Hi, I’m Collette!

I’ve been writing stories for as long as I can remember. From epic battles in faraway lands to heartwarming love stories set in cozy small towns, I’m always jotting down notes, filling pages with story ideas.

I started my writing journey in screenwriting. It was an amazing learning experience, and where I fell in love with the craft of writing. From there, I decided I wanted to write novels.

Fantasy is my first love, so I set out to write in that genre. Several manuscripts later, I tested the self-publishing waters with two YA Fantasy novels, mainly as a way to learn the process. There was a lot of trial and error, lol, but it was a space I knew I wanted to do more in. Flash forward a couple of years, and I decided I wanted to venture into romance novels. Romance was always a subplot of my fantasy stories, so it was a natural progression. And now here we are today, where I write both fantasy and romance.

Stories filled with hope, courage, family—the one we’re born into and the one we find—and love in all its forms are the ones I want to share. If these are the kinds of tales that keep you reading late into the night, I’d love for you to come along for the ride as I prepare to put more stories out into the world.

When I’m not writing you can find me hanging out with my family (I’m a mom of two boys—now young adults—and happily married to a man who still makes me laugh after all these years), dreaming of travel destinations to add to my must-see list, or curled up with a good book.
