Open Novella Contest 2023 (prompt 11)
To the plain and practical spirits of Derpham, novelty is grounds for suspicion and frippery, offence.
So, when a milliner's moves to town, the residents watch the illusive proprietor behind curtains, for what use could the good spirits of Derpham have with such fine things? And who could afford them?
To little Luna Pavski however, the Milliner is an uncompromising anomaly in her dreary town.
But as the Milliner begins to make gifts of their craftsmanship, Luna notices changes in her once predictable neighbours.

The Book of Trials || ONC 2019
When Veia Phelde is cursed, she hardly expects the ruin it will invoke, but will breaking the curse come at a cost more than its worth in blood? +++ Veia Phelde had been satisfied with her life in her small cottage in the woods, never bothering anyone save for her job as a blacksmith's apprentice. But when she loses her job, Veia is forced out of her comfort zone only to run into a simple book that means so much more than she wants it to. With blank white pages and a title carved by knife, the single word that scars the leather can only be the work of fate, and the danger it contains... well, let's just say that's fate, too. When a devilishly handsome traveler offers to take her to the City of Magic to break the curse, Veia finds herself hopelessly entangled in a danger more powerful than she could ever know. +++ ~ Featured Wattpad Picks: Hidden Gem (May 2020) ~ @StoriesUndiscovered Diamond list (2019) ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, Coral Awards 2021 ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, The Pantheon Awards 2020 ~ 3rd place in adventure, The Blue Rose Awards, August 2019 ~ Written for the Open Novella Contest 2019, gen fic open prompt (since expanded; 45k word count) ~ Also available on Inkitt, Prose, Sweek, and Quotev (but Wattpad has the best version) ;) Beautiful cover by @TheFashionPixieKumpleto

Foxtale [Vol. 1] - Ley of the Land
Cael is cargo. Bought, sold, and about to be handed to a buyer who's already paid in something worse than gold-until he breaks his cage and runs into Kymera, a marsh so drowned in wild magic that its rivers glow and its ruins whisper. There he meets Eldinor: a white fox arcanist, alone but for a bad-tempered raven, who tells him plainly that he doesn't belong here and can't stay. Cael follows him home anyway. He has nowhere else to go and the magic waking in his blood will kill him if the fox doesn't teach him to control it. But Cael's old owners haven't given up. A wounded slaver with something to prove, an old mercenary who's tired of the blood on his hands, and an imperial sorceress who sees Cael as property of a fallen empire are all closing in on the swamp, and on the secret Eldinor has buried there for years. Some things you have to face together. And some lies are told out of love. A dark-fantasy found-family story about hope, trust, and the cost of protecting someone from the truth. Sequel now available at: https://www.wattpad.com/story/414208820-foxtale-vol-2-a-deeper-darkKumpleto

Val is cursed. Or more accurately, his entire village is cursed. Maybe. That's what he's been told, anyway. But that's all just an old story. He doesn't know much about it, as he wasn't exactly born at the time of the alleged cursing. All he does know is that he's very small and very alone. Luckily, living in the walls of an apothecary shop isn't that bad, and Val enjoys his quiet life. But winter is coming, and when Val accidentally gets mixed up in a plant that Sorrel, the shop worker, takes home, he is suddenly confronted with his worst fear: coming face to face with a human.Kumpleto

Charmer

I may hate the very air he breathes, but when he tells me he knows something of my mother's disappearance I push my loathing aside to glean from him what I can. It's only when I'm dragged to a mysterious fortress on the high cliffs after following Nicandros directions that I realize my mistake. I've handed over my trust to a man who never deserved it.

The Book of Adventures [EDITING SOON]
A child on the brink of death, and when faced with Death herself, the child just couldn't bear it and he begged. "Lady... Can you please end my suffering?" The lady in velvet cloak looked down at him, confused. 'Why does this human asks for his death? Doesn't he want to live and take revenge on those who have hurted him?' She thought. His peculiarity piqued her interest. And instead of taking the child's life like how he wishes, the lady in velvet cloak took him in. Will life blossom fondly to the child after being abandoned by his family? Will the lady even understand the meaning of life for others? Or will they end up being fond of one another? "Lily, too much fondness will only ruin you again," the darkness whispered inside of her as memories of her former life flashed on her mind. ∘ ───▪─── ∘ The Book of Adventures Disclaimer: AN ORIGINAL NOVELLA WRITTEN IN ENGLISH.
