I'm a writer of horror and fantasy stories.
Pop culture loves the image of medieval people with blackened, rotting teeth, even though it’s mostly a myth.

There is a cautionary tale making the rounds in the taverns of Tolosa.

If this is the year you finally want to start that book, I recommend you do just one thing: write.

You sit at the water’s edge with friends you love, wrapped in the quiet that only exists before dawn.
For a moment, time slows.

Imagine stepping into a tavern at the end of the day.

Why are you doing this?

Why don't you tell me how you would like your villains? Just plain evil, or more complex? Tortured, brooding, sexy, glamorous, captivating? Let me know.

Medieval headdresses, especially in the 15th century, were absolutely on another level.
Loose hair was seen as tempting or vain, so from puberty onward, women were expected to cover their hair.

Here's a fragment from Chapter 3. This one never made it into the book. It was one of those kill your darlings type of situations, that was a bit painful, since I really liked the descriptions here.

Say you’re living in the late Middle Ages and heading to the market for grain.
How do you know how much you’re actually getting? 🌾
One way of measuring grain was measuring stones.

What looks like an arcane symbol… is actually a map. 🗺️
These O–T or T–O maps show the medieval world as a circle divided by the Don, Nile, and the Mediterranean—separating Europe, Africa, and Asia.

If you want your story to feel alive, you need to live it a little. ✨
Books, records, and AI can help you write, but experience makes it breathe.
Take a class. Visit the place. Talk to people. Immerse yourself.

Hi, I’m Eva. I'm a writer, and occasional illustrator. ✨
I love stories, people, tea, chocolate, history, animals, languages, and... basically everything else. 😅
Stay tuned — there’s more to come!

I love history, research, and those weird little medieval details most people overlook.
Expect deep dives into late-medieval life, the odd writing tip, and fragments from my vampire-filled fantasy horror novel.

I’m starting to share my writing journey. ✨📖
I’m working on a fantasy horror novel set in late medieval Toulouse with history, tragedy, and… vampires.
If you love dark stories, history, or vampires, follow along!
