Hello those of you who follow this page. I have been having a terrible time in the wake of the loss of my dear pet.

That being said: I also miss uploading chapters of A Ballad of Roots and Rituals.

So I will tentatively be uploading a chapter this coming Friday.

If there was one book I could erase from my mind and read again for the first time it would be the Unbroken by CL Clark

I'll never forget the wonder of reading it the first time and experiencing the joy of feeling truly represented in a fantasy setting
