An Illustrated Folkloric Mini-Series
DO NOT FOLLOW THE GLOAM CATS
Every Mythkeeper knows not to follow a Gloam Cat.

A collection of illustrated folkloric accounts exploring the creatures—and the shadows—they quietly witness.

Bound by the Bow: The Hydan Archeress Chronicles

A Two-Part Fantasy Series
Sylvandor's Reclamation
For nearly two centuries, Tilia Brierhurst has lived quietly among humans beneath a carefully constructed glamour, holding firmly to one simple truth: Magic is Trouble.
But when old magic begins finding its way across the Veil—and calling Tilia by name—the life she has carefully built begins to unravel. To discover why, she may have to return to the world she abandoned and confront the truth about the magic she has spent centuries trying to forget.
A two-part story of old magic, forgotten truths, and the delicate balance between destruction and reclamation.
Coming 2027
A YA Arthurian-Inspired Fantasy Novel
A Realm of Splintered Crowns
Sam Avalon’s senior year was supposed to be painfully ordinary. But when her best friend, Kyra Morat, jokingly dons a crown backstage during their school’s production of The Completely True Story of King Arthur, Sam reaches out to touch it, and the two girls find themselves plunged into the waters of another realm.
Narlimot has spent nearly eighteen years mourning the death of King Arthur beneath the rule of Malin the Mighty, a powerful Steward who was only ever meant to hold the kingdom until its rightful successor could take the throne. But time moves strangely in Narlimot. The Lady of the Lake has disappeared. A masked Black Knight is gathering a quiet resistance. And the story everyone remembers about Arthur’s death may not be the truth at all.
As Sam searches for the reason the crown brought her to Narlimot, Kyra begins asking a more dangerous question: why has no one questioned the story they’ve been told?
A Realm of Splintered Crowns is an Arthurian-inspired fantasy about friendship, inheritance, identity, and a kingdom forced to remember that a crown was never meant to mean possession—but stewardship.
Release Date TBD
