Iβm Alex Larkspur, a reader and writer! Iβve always loved reading and making up stories. I would get in trouble for staying up late reading, and there are so many βbooksβ I made as a kid that Iβve saved through the years! The books that kicked it off were probably the Narnia booksπ»
A book shelf full of books; Prince of Sorrows, Lord of Silver Ashes, Herald of the Witchβs Mark, Vessel of Woven Night, The Fox and the Dryad, A Bone in His Teeth - all by Kellen Graves

What's this? A cover reveal for a brand new novelette slated to be released March 2026?
When a fallen angel is pulled out of freezing water by a stranger that knows far more about angels than any kith should, their entire world changes as they grapple with their new reality of living as a mortal.

Heβs wrong, but he thinks he knows!
#AwesomeCharacters
For Galen in The Need for Dandelions, he is haunted by every time he failed to save someone, even when it was far out of his control.
Sasha, however, is haunted by the death of his sister. And although there isnβt a literal ghost, she is very much with him.
The ebook cover of Phantom and Rook by Aelina Isaacs On a busy market street in a modern town with tudor architecture a warm glow illuminates the crowds & stores that line the road. There is a seasonal festival, which is evident over this hustle because of the decorations of red & gold bunting and flags crisscrossed cross over head, and sunflowers have been pinned on the beams and roof tops. Between all the people, two men have seen each other. A tall brown man, with a mane of curly black hair, wearing a knitted rainbow duster, looks over his shoulder with the confusion of a clouded memory. He has arms full of shopping in paper bag, herbs, flowers and bottles, he has to be on his way and the crowd is moving, but still he lingers as he looks at the other man. The other man is small, thin, freckled and has a shock of red hair that is firey in the dawn light, he is taking the hood of his green jersey like he is going to pull it over his head, but before he does he looks back at the second man. The heaviness of his heart and thin hope are evident in his face.
I am pleased to announce the Game has officially begun. π»π³οΈβππβ¨οΈ

Galen from The Need for Dandelions is associated with (drumroll) dandelions! Dandelions are resilient, they keep coming back despite efforts to get rid of them. Although theyβre seen as weeds, thereβs beauty and benefits to them. And Galenβ¦ well.
