Exciting News: Major Edits Completed!
Woohoo! The second round of major edits is finally complete, and let me tell you, it’s been both painstaking and incredibly satisfying. Of course, there have been countless smaller edits along the way, but this milestone feels especially significant.
Call for Beta Readers
At this stage, I’m eagerly looking for Beta Readers. Your insights on the whole story before the final line edit would be invaluable. If you’re interested in being a Beta Reader, please email me at: smvltrudeau@gmail.com.
About My First Book
In the meantime, don’t forget that my first book, The Phoenix and the Ant, is still available! This Upper Middle Grade Fantasy Adventure novel is packed with suspense, dynamic characters, and significant growth. Though I debated labeling it as Young Adult (YA), I ultimately decided it fits best as Upper Middle Grade.
You can find The Phoenix and the Ant in physical copies, e-books, and even an audiobook. Just search for it through your favorite retailer.
Connect With Me
I appreciate all the support and feedback from my readers. Your thoughts and opinions help shape my work, and I can’t wait to hear from you!
Best regards,

November 26th. What has been a long journey feels like it’s coming to an end (or truly just beginning). Admittedly I haven’t had much success finding a new audience outside of friends and family, but perhaps that will come with time. Either way, it is an exciting moment.
I have a lot of awesome things coming up in the pipeline, such as the second novel, the third (ish) novel, the TTRPG (which is slow going as the book, work, and my family take priority), and the AUDIOBOOK. Yes, that’s right, I am working with a producer to have an audiobook made and so far it is sounding amazing.
It would mean the world to me for people to pre-order my novel, or even add it to your wishlist. It will be on Kindle Unlimited for at least three months (not sure after that, it depends if I can get it into school libraries and local libraries).

But when a young girl named Ti discovers her ability to transform into a majestic phoenix, her life takes a drastic turn. With the memory of the royal family’s assassination by Were Wizards still haunting the kingdom, Ti’s father, a general in the Djat army, sends her to the prestigious school, Yaudi School, for her safety. Accompanied by Captain Arence and his eccentric crew from the Calydronian ship, Tubby Whale, Ti embarks on a journey through the vast and treacherous oceans of Ptansia, a shattered continent. Along the way, she meets Slayer, a skilled Wind Wizard whose ego matches his talent. Together, Ti, Slayer, and Ti’s loyal Animal Partner, Priot, a silver-tipped falcon, face ancient beasts, uncover hidden magic, and unwittingly become pawns in a kingdom’s desire for war. Ti’s adventure is not just about mastering her newfound powers but also about finding her place in a world where she feels like she doesn’t belong. With new friendships forged and incredible challenges ahead, Ti must navigate the delicate balance between loyalty, self-discovery, and the longing for a true home. Join Ti on her thrilling journey in this captivating tale that blends magic, adventure, and the timeless pursuit of identity.
