The Sibylline Scroll is the first book in The Time Travel Tales of Livvi Biddle - a middle grade light fantasy series. It will release in autumn of 2023.
I'm presently writing a standalone MG novel inspired by my 2014 trip to France, The Rabbit of Rouen. A third Lindstrom Wintertime Tale - The Winter Wayfarer - has been written, but needs editing, and for the illustrations to be completed. I've also outlined Book II in the Livvi Biddle Series.
