Astoria: home of the Brethren, a place of legend, learning, and Truth, and secrets that cannot be told. The Lady thought she knew everything that passed within the walls of Astoria and most of that which happened in the wider world, but there are some secrets to which even she is not privy. What must be hidden at any cost? Why must she remain ignorant of mysterious happenings within her own keep? Can she trust those who would intentionally hide things from her?
Discover a boy with a destiny he refuses to accept, a servant that dares defy the Lady to her face, a book of tales few can read, inexplicable comings and goings, and adventures beyond count. Unicorns, dragons, griffins, and other fantastic creatures all have their part while the Truth lies within grasp, waiting only to be discovered.

The Greylands: Modern Edition
A land of shadows, of mystery, of obfuscated Truth. Welcome to the Greylands, that strange world, within the bounds of Time, peopled by mortal men. We cannot see truly, only as through a glass, darkly. There are things that move and have their being completely beyond our ability to perceive them. There are things beyond our mortal ability to comprehend. There are hints and glimmers hidden within the body of revealed Truth, but there is much we do not know, cannot yet understand, and could never dare dream. These stories are mere fancy, with a seed of Truth at their core. They play with the ideas of mortality and Eternity, Time and things beyond it, and of course the epic battle of Good against Evil. Each stands alone, and though there are common themes, threads, names, and concepts, each story is an entity unto itself and should not be seen as occurring in the same world or mistaken for installments of a series. These are random musings, not Gospel Truth, and should not be taken as such. Joy, hope, and encouragement are hopefully a byproduct, but certainly not sound Theology. If you would know more of the true world beyond these Greylands, one must be a careful student of the Scriptures, not of silly stories such as these. While still fairytales, these stories are set in modern surroundings rather than the land of Faerie! Each story is unique unto itself, and doesn't reference any other story, world or character elsewhere.Complete
A Door In Every Dream
A Tapestry of Magic and Wonder This enchanting collection of short stories weaves together a world where magic breathes through every shadow, whisper, and wonder. From forests guarded by fairies and forgotten cities beneath the sea, to talking animals, haunted houses, potion shops, dream crafters, and memory thieves-each tale offers a glimpse into a realm just beyond the veil of the ordinary. With stories of hope and heartbreak, mystery and magic, these pages are filled with brave girls, curious boys, lonely giants, mischievous fae, soulful spirits, and unexpected friendships. You'll meet kitchen witches, soul reapers, shape-shifting shadows, dragons who raise children, and libraries that only open at midnight. Each story stands alone, yet together they form a vibrant mosaic of wonder, where new kinds of magic bloom in every chapter. Some tales are whimsical, others haunting, but all are bound by a shared sense of imagination, transformation, and deep emotion. At the heart of it all are characters who are learning, growing, seeking, and finding-home, truth, courage, or themselves. This book is for dreamers. For wanderers. For those who still believe that anything is possible if you just step sideways into the unknown.Complete
