The Velvet Fox

I hope my words become the spring sunshine that melts the ice of survival mode, letting your inner child finally step out of that preserved moment and into the warmth of now, where healing and joy dance together like old friends.

I want my stories to be the safe place where that younger version of you realizes they don't have to stay frozen anymore—that they can stretch, age, laugh, play, and become who they were always meant to be before time crystallized around them.

I dream of them being the key that unlocks not just healing, but the permission to continue growing from exactly where you paused, to let the clock start ticking again in those rooms of your heart where it's been forever 3 PM on that particularly difficult Tuesday.

I want my words to be the gentle thaw, the whispered "It's okay, time can move forward now. You can move forward now."

WIP-A collection of letters:

I pray my words reach into those frozen moments where your inner child has been waiting—suspended in time like a photograph, stuck in that single breath where everything stopped. Where you created your moment of safety.

Spring: fresh beginnings
Summer: growth
Fall: introspection
Winter: quiet refinement

The shifting of seasons mirrors the writer’s journey—fluid, ever-changing, and full of opportunities to transform, to reflect, and to create something beautiful and enduring.

The life of an indie author is equal parts chaos and magic. We’re the storytellers, the marketers, the dreamers who refuse to wait for permission to share our words. Every chapter is a risk, every release is a leap of faith, but it’s all worth it for the love of the craft.

They say to write what you know. But maybe, just maybe, I can write what I wish to know. What I hope to feel. What I fight to become.

A story that shows the strength it takes to survive the darkest nights and still believe the dawn will come. A story where the scars don’t define me but remind me of what I’ve overcome.

I want to write the life I deserve—the one I’ve dreamed of but never dared to believe could be real. More than that, I want to write the happy ending I’ve earned. Not a fantasy, not an escape, but a triumph.

I want to write about hope so strong it drowns out the echoes of despair.
I want to create a world where love doesn’t hurt and trust isn’t broken. I want to imagine a life where happiness isn’t fleeting, where it stays, where it belongs.

I don’t want to write about those things. I don’t want to give my pain the power to define me on the page. I want to break free from it, to rise above the weight of all I’ve endured. I want to write about joy so pure it feels like sunlight warming my skin.

They say to write what you know. But what if all you know is pain? What if the threads of your life are woven with grief, each memory stained with sorrow, each chapter laced with anger? What if every moment you replay in your mind is a reminder of loss, betrayal, or longing?

Your kindness.
Your peace.
Your identity.

And slowly, it consumes you.
It takes root in the cracks of your pain, growing until there’s nothing left but the rage.
The bitterness.
The emptiness.

Until hate is all you know.
Until hate is all you are.

Hate.
It’s a dangerous force, creeping into your soul like a slow, insidious poison.
It corrodes everything in its path—every ounce of goodness, every glimmer of light.
And before you realize it, it’s changing you.
Stripping you of the things that once made you whole.

You grasp it with trembling hands, desperate to feel anything but weakness.
You clutch it tightly, refusing to let go—because you can’t.
Because the thought of being weak again is unbearable.

“Hate.
It’s a powerful force, intoxicating in its intensity.
When you’ve felt powerless for so long, it feels like a deliverance.”

“Retribution.
Revenge.
Justice.
These things feel stronger than prayer.
Stronger than faith.
So tell me, what am I supposed to do with this?
How am I supposed to speak into the void, to cry out to the one being I thought would never fail me…only to realize they already have?” #amwriting

Currently pouring my heart into a series of letters—some to myself, others to people who’ve shaped my journey. Calling it cathartic doesn’t even begin to cover it.

“The fallen leaves crunch loudly under my feet, an echoing reminder of the grim fate that awaits one of the village women of Wraithmere. Any woman but me, that is. I was freed from that barbaric offering a decade ago on the last Winter’s Maiden Offering.” #writingcommunity #romantasy #writersofbsky

New WIP: “The rules of men are fickle, shifting like the autumn winds, and I have grown tired of their inconstant urges. Their words are hollow, void of truth, crumbling under the weight of their duplicity.”

Thanks for the support! It means a lot!

Picked it up at a thrift store! It was published in the 90’s.

The Warrior - Nicole Jordan

I read this: “It is clear you are a maiden languishing for a man. Permit me to show you,” Ranulf murmured, his voice stroking Ariane’s senses like dark velvet. “Let us see if we can make your lovely body turn traitor.”

I was hooked…

These books started my obsession with romantasy!

It’s definitely a headache, but the nerves will be my undoing! I don’t know how people do this! Lol

Just uploaded my first book on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited. Anyone else feel like throwing up during this process?

She burned for him—a slow, consuming fire that threatened to reduce all her carefully laid plans to ash. And for the first time in her life, she welcomed the flames.
