What's up, everyone?!
I'm Jessica Christie, AKA Shadows and Bonds! I'm 18, a huge Pokémon fan, and I've got a thing for all things mysterious, especially Ghost and Dark types. Zephera, the protagonist of this story, totally reflects that vibe! My favorite Pokémon is Luxray, but there's just something about the eerie and enigmatic Pokémon that really draws me in.

When I'm not writing, you can find me immersed in the world of Pokémon games, hanging out with my two dogs, or just enjoying life in between. As of 1/9/25, I'm on college break and have already written 40 pages (8 chapters) in just a week! Who needs sleep, right? 😅 With college starting back up in three weeks, I'll aim to upload a new chapter every week, but being a chronically ill college student may cause some delays, so stay tuned for more adventures with Zephera and her unique journey!

I'm in college to become a Kindergarten teacher because I love working with the little ones! I live in the USA, and when I'm not studying or writing, I'm busy dreaming of ways to make learning fun for the youngest minds.

I used to think I was a terrible writer since it often takes me much longer than most, but I've definitely proven myself wrong with this story! I'm still gaining confidence in my writing, but it just goes to show you that anyone can be a writer if they keep pushing forward.

Does this story have an end? Honestly, I don't know yet, but that's part of the fun, right? I'm just going along with the flow and letting the story unfold. I hope you enjoy the ride as much as I've enjoyed writing it. I also hope that you take the words the characters say to heart, you can learn quite a bit from them. Your feedback means the world to me, so feel free to share your thoughts and connect!

Thanks for reading, and let's dive into this mystery together!
