Written for origfic bingo: They called it ‘magic’, this feeling that was supposed to overwhelm her when she finally met the one. Air tossed another cheap paperback book across the room, narrowly missing Shadow’s head. He shot her a raised brow glance from the dresser he was sitting on. “Boring,” she said tightly. “Unrealistic.” She […]

Aneda turns the pages of the ancient book, weights down the delicate page with a carefully […]

I’ve been looking at a few things, like archiving my original fiction on its own site for that, on writing.com, or maybe even the Kingdoms and Thorn stuff that started as promptfest stuff on AO3. And then there’s Patreon. If I had one, would anyone even be interested? I already kind of post too much […]
