Welcome!

I go by Jacob! I’m a San Diego based writer looking to share my work with the world. Under the imprint “Celestial Seaside Publishing,” my hope is to get my work to a world with stories that challenge the imagination. As a teacher of writing, I encourage people to think of writing as an extension of their own voice. When you have a voice, you have power, and writing gives you that power.

Sounds of Yesterday

“For five years, Rob and Ana have been inseparable. They both have overcome career challenges, achieved emotional stability, and survived a global pandemic. Their future seems bright.

That is, until Ana abruptly ends their relationship. Rob's routine-driven world is shattered, reopening traumas and insecurities he thought were long put to rest. As he obsesses over what might have gone wrong and struggles for healing and self-acceptance, his memories put him on an imagined stage where he teeters between the habit of meeting outside expectations, and the pain of ripping masks away to reveal his true self.

Sounds of Yesterday dives into the complex interplay between love and loss on the autism spectrum, unpacking the diverse ways empathy and emotional agency interconnect inside a neurodivergent world.”
