Upcoming

Aside from book six in the original series, Louder!, I’m also working on ideas for a graphic novel series for Our Lady of Righteous Rage. This would take a lot of time and involvement, so the graphic novel series won’t be in the works until the end of the year. I’m writing a book under Aidan Sirci’s name, I’m Sorry For The Things I Said While I Was High: Stories & Advice, which is being released story by story on Patreon.
