Author

A literary LitRPG about a burned-out English teacher that wants to survive a world where stories are now reality, but the AI running it only keeps characters worth reading.

Hollow Script blends progression fantasy, dark humor, and metafiction into a LitRPG where words have power and survival depends on becoming someone worth reading about.

"Incredibly clever, full of puns and wordplay. And the story is exceptionally well crafted too. This is genuinely one of the best I have read on RR."

— KaliopeD, Royal Road Reviewer
