Service Work
Community Leadership

Novel Writing
Currently writing a post-apocalyptic novel grounded in psychological realism and nuclear history, exploring how memory, loss, and quiet desperation shape the will to survive.
Scars of a Broken Sun is a post-apocalyptic novel rooted in psychological realism and the shadows of nuclear history. It is not about the end itself, but the slow, unbearable silence that follows.
Murry walks the hollow corridors of a world undone—cities collapsed into their own shadows, highways stretching into nothing but wind and dust. He carries little but a battered notebook, its pages crowded with fragments of memory that refuse to fade. The living he finds along the way feel altered, their humanity worn thin, as though the catastrophe had burned straight through their souls. And in the silence between ruins, Murry begins to wonder whether the same fire that scorched the earth has already begun to consume him from within.
Drawn from real testimonies of nuclear disaster, Scars of a Broken Sun lingers in grief, survival, and the strange ways people learn to keep moving when there is nowhere left to go.
Six years in the making, Scars of a Broken Sun released October 4, 2025, with its successor And Prometheus Wailed coming in the near future.
