Do you remember the contests they used to have on the back of cereal boxes? Ever try to finish one?

The End of Captain Juliet
A few days ago, my friend Laurel told me about a dream that she had. The premise, she explained, had something to do with pirates in the time of Les Mis. One specific visual she had was of a woman tied to a burning ship. I couldn’t possibly turn up that kind of visual without giving this woman some kind of story. I set myself to telling this character’s story and was very excited about what came from it. I couldn’t not share it with all of you!
Princess Linni and the Moon
I love space. I like stars and planets, learning about all different space travel. As a sci-fi lover, it’s not surprising (nor is it surprising if you know my fiction). I also have a deep love of photographing the moon. It’s mysterious, bright, and familiar. This piece is a bit about that. Enjoy this extra-long piece for this month’s fiction piece!
Deviance
It’s been a wild few months for me! I started getting a little stir crazy and started volunteering a couple days a week at a horse rescue near me. It’s been really good to get outside semi-regularly and also work with really big animals. It’s very different from anything I’ve done before and I think it’s great to try new things. But what if you deviate too far from what’s expected with no reason?
The Obsidian Badge
A tale of ghosts, vengeance and billionaires! Enjoy this month’s fiction installment!
The Pirate in the Stables
This idea came to me while I was looking for some volunteer opportunities to fill some time. There was a retired horse rescue that got me wondering about what characters I’d put there. The thought of a pirate crossed my mind, so I started playing with this one. It seemed like a fun idea, so he might come back in another story one day.
Unity
I’ve always been a huge fan of space and space travel. Star Trek is a favorite of mine and I’ve always been curious about how a planet would react to a unified world government, especially the moment it was apparent that we were heading towards one. So here’s a short story about going from the final two world powers to accepting the unity of all nations. Where better to start cooperating than in space?
The Curse of the Ivory Witch
It’s October and that means it’s time for a good ghost story! I recommend pairing this one with a dark and stormy night, as well as a tense feeling of being watched in the darkness. Enjoy!
Forward Momentum
Hello everyone! I’ve been quarantining here in Connecticut for a little over a week now and been spending equal parts writing and spending time outside. It’s been nice to kind of reset from a very stressful move and take some time to get back on my feet. Hope you enjoy it!
Found Mysteries: In Your Hands!
You read that correctly!
If you follow me on any social media (which you should), I recently announced that my physical book came to my hands for approval! There’s a lot of emotions that came with that (namely shock), but it feels so good to have something physical in my hands! I had to make a few minor revisions that I couldn’t identify until I had a physical copy in my hands, but those issues have been resolved and I can comfortably say that the book is finally ready for you, dear readers!
You can get it online through the expected resources, but I highly recommend asking your local independent bookstore if they can order a copy for you! It’s available through IngramSpark and, if it’s needed, the ISBN is “978-1-7351463-0-0” (but it’s also the only book under my name).
I am so excited for everyone who was waiting for a physical copy to finally get their version, but I wanted to make sure that you were all getting the best possible product I could promise. If you bought a digital copy, don’t worry, none of the stories have changed.
Keep an eye out at the end of the month, as I’m going to be having a contest for the month of August for an opportunity to win a special prize!
