TEA TALE. Divine has learned a lot about herself, her magic, & her goddess. Now she & Saph are getting ready for the cozy Midwinter Nights Faire- the worst time for her magic to go haywire. It will take an unlikely quest, world-shaking revelations, & unexpected friends to show Divine her direction.

FOMO I went to a local author fair last year as an author with a table & somehow missed the announcement that applications were open. I don’t think they emailed me. I’m so sad. I might still see if they have any openings. I’m in no events this fall and I have a FALL COZY FANTASY READ. UGHHHHH
