Coming Out Soon...
Keep an eye out for my upcoming novella "The Hotel Montclair"! It will be available on Amazon and Lulu marketplace. The gorgeous proposal art was done by Maureen Chokola.
​
In an isolated hotel in the Colorado mountains, Gabriel “Gecko” Sherwin grows up listening to his family’s stories. His father’s side has run the hotel for generations, while his mother’s immigrated to the West Coast from the Philippines and saw a steep rise and fall in their fortunes. As he grows out of the whimsy of childhood and into the somber reality of his teen years, Gecko watches his family change, too, and must find a way to redefine his relationships with the people he knows and loves best.
A timeless coming-of-age story, The Hotel Montclair balances wonder and connection in the quiet but colorful life of the Sherwin family.
About Me
Hello! Glad you stopped by. I'm Quinn (or Quill), and I've been writing my whole life. Ever since I could hold a pencil. I like dancing, singing, reading to my little brothers, and staying up late when I have a story idea but going to bed early the rest of the time. I'm currently a software developer in Madison, Wisconsin.
I am a two-time winner of the Heermans-McCalmon Stage Play Award, and have had short stories appear in a couple of online magazines: "The Imaginary Creature on My Rock" in Everyday Fiction and "An Eye Out for Ladybugs" in Kitsch Magazine. The Faerie Linguist was published in Pixie Forest's anthology Ever After. I've also been fortunate enough to see many of my plays performed on stage!
