An up-and-coming poet and struggling grad student, 24-year-old Lillie Glass has enough to worry about in her life. Yet a new discovery that the words in her poems are becoming eldritch -- and sometimes outright dangerous -- realities threatens to destroy what little routine she has. It isn't long before Lillie becomes afraid to do the very thing she's passionate about, the pages before her remaining blank.
27-year-old Felix Montenegro is the latest bearer of a curse that has plagued his family for decades: his right eye holding a ceaseless storm within it that obscures his vision and can influence the weather around him if he isn't careful. He's never considered before that there might be a way to break the Montenegro curse or understand it differently, until he meets a certain poet whose words show him a new horizon.
Spurred by chance and circumstance, Lillie and Felix set out to achieve what seems to be an impossible feat: to see their magical afflictions for what they truly are, and at last, to break the cycle.

The Hollow Prince
COMPLETED. *NSFW* Auralie doesn't believe in fae stories-not the ones whispered by dying villagers, not the ones about cursed woods or monsters that eat your heart. But when girls begin to vanish and strange symbols bleed from the bark of the forest, she crosses the veil in search of answers. What she finds is him. Unmoving. Inhuman. Wearing a crown of antlers and eyes like cut emeralds, sharp with amusement. He speaks in riddles. Smiles like a threat. And calls her little moth, like a name he's been saving. The first time they meet, she draws his blood. The second, he offers her a bargain. The third, he consumes her. The Hollow Prince says worse things hunt her now-creatures that wear her face, sing her name, and slip into her dreams. He claims he's the only thing standing between her and the dark. But the deeper Auralie goes, the more twisted the forest becomes-and the harder it is to tell whether the prince is her captor, her shield, or the very thing she was warned to fear. There is a curse. A game. And a price that was never hers to pay.Complete
Spell Book & Scandal
Shelby King is tired of living in her sister's shadow. Shelby's a scribe, like her mom, and everyone expects her to write spells for her sister, the way her mom always has for her dad. But Shelby's spells fail spectacularly, and by the time she's a sophomore, Christina won't touch them with a ten-foot-pole; their parents aren't much better. Shelby is fed up, and she decides to show the world she doesn't care if she isn't as good as her stuck-up sister, or as talented as their powerful parents. In fact, she decides it's time to break all the rules, magical and otherwise, and she starts sneaking out to meet Jeremiah Smallwood, the second-best caster in school at illegal pop-up spell battles around town. She may not be able to scribe for him, but she doesn't mind letting him think that she could; Shelby's been half in love with Miah as long as she can remember, but he's never paid attention to her until now, and she's not going to risk her chances worrying about a pesky thing like the truth. But when Christina rats her out to their parents, Shelby can't control her anger, and words come pouring out of her that she can't take back even if she wanted to, threatening Christina's future...and Shelby's own chances with Jeremiah. It'll take more magic than Shelby's ever dreamed of to set things right, but no scribe has that much magic...right?Complete

Fourteen-year-old Eileen, who escaped the waking world, helps out at the chocolate shop and lives with her inventive adoptive mother, Cecilia Haunt. Besides the occasional cat, zoog, or animate pumpkin snatching the wares away, all is well. That is, until a mysterious eye statue appears in Ulthar. Every night, it moves to a different location. It's the sign of the Great Ones, who long ago left the dark palace of Kadath and went to the sunset city. Listless and hurt over the past, and desperate for an adventure to give herself a purpose, Eileen asserts that this is her chance to make a name for herself at the risk of her own safety and identity.
