Hello to new (and old!) readers!
I am T.L. Bellia and I reside in Perth, Western Australia.
I began writing Beneath the Ashen Sky in mid-2024 while employed as a Medical Emergency Services Officer within the mining sector. Prior to this I was employed within the Construction Industry as a Concreter for 15 years as well as an Armed Guard protecting valuable shipments during transit.
Being an avid reader and a huge fan of grim, gritty stories, it had always been a dream of mine to write my own novel one day. So, after competing in numerous short story/flash fiction competitions I realised I was being held back by word-count limits (and other rules lol) so decided it was time to try my hand at writing a full-length novel.
About 8 months later, Beneath the Ashen Sky was born.
After receiving loads of positive feedback and requests from readers, friends and family I decided to expand the world of Blightreach and create The Testament of Torment Trilogy.
I recently just completed writing the second book in the series - Whispers of the Fallen - set 10 years after the events of the first story!
I am currently at work on the final installment and cannot wait to share it - things are going to get even darker...
When not writing I can be found hiking, gaming or hanging out with my cat (and master) Chester. I also have a keen interest in Boxing and the UFC and have trained in Boxing, whether in the gym or on my own over many years.

I also have instagram although I'm not as active on there.
And please, if you have read the books so far and enjoyed them, please consider leaving me a review on Amazon and Goodreads - it helps so much and encourages me to write faster to get the next book in your hands sooner!
