You don’t need perfect clarity to move forward.
Joy is a rebellion.
Hope is your superpower.

The cost of magic is rising, and faebloods are being hunted. Watched. Used. But in one hidden place—tucked along a leyline—there’s a pause.

When the world turns cruel, sometimes the bravest thing is an act of caring.

Meet the Knockers—tiny, wrinkled fae in miner’s garb who once guided Cornish miners to tin… or tied their shoelaces together for fun. And these gnome-like spirits still haunt mining lore from Cornwall to the Appalachians.

You’ve got this.

✨ Midpoint crossed. Secrets spilled. The betwixt is cracking open… ✨

I’m deep into Act 2 of Faeries Don’t Hide and things are on fire—literally.
🔥 Bibb’s compass whispers
🐀 Wererats scurry
🔥 Firelings ignite
And the secrets? Oh, they burn.

Just an fyi, I think I got an adult content tag because of sharing a public domain painting depicting the Wild Hunt.

Honored to speak to the #ApexWriters group tonight, humbly following (sort of) in the footsteps of the inimitable #DavidFarland. Make sure to check out this amazing group and up your #writing game! #AmWriting #BookSky #IndieAuthors

✨ In Heart of the Worlds, things are never what they seem…
A marble giant once hurled wyverns in the Grashbear Mountains.
Now he walks into a tower—as a dwarf.
Shapeshifter? Illusion? Or something far older?

Beware the Hounds of the Otherworld but don’t mistake their howl for malice because they once guided souls gently to the afterlife. Then again, they also make up the roots for the British hellhound legends.

One moment, Aunia’s saved by an ancient marble giant, its stone body moving with impossible grace... the next the Boggleman's whispered spells sink into her bones like ice. And then there's that missing, broken prophecy.

🧚🏽‍♂️Pookas are intriguing faery types. They CAN be benevolent & kind... but most stories say they love to await some unsuspecting fool who will climb upon their 🐴backs... & that's when the real fun starts!
