Obsessed with weaving cinematic stories onto the page, she draws inspiration from the films and shows that spark her imagination, bringing to life tales of gods, spirits, and star-crossed fates. Her debut series, Mystic City, is a love letter to the genres she adores—blending dark urban fantasy, murder mystery, and slow-burn romance into a world where the line between the living and the dead is razor-thin. When she's not writing, you can find her brainstorming new stories with her partner and her dog at all hours of the day, sipping hot chocolate, travelling with friends or painting as she teaches art classes on the side! Follow her writing journey on instragram, izzyfleaywrites and immerse yourself in the phantoms, Gods, and secrets of Mystic City.
