Conceits of Whim and Fancy isn’t really a collection of spooky stories, but it does involve a lot of supernatural creatures, like witches, familiars, faeries, skeletal warriors, goblins, and liches. The majority of the stories in this collection are kid friendly, as well, which makes this collection a fun one to share with little ones […]

When I wrote my first Marsh sister’s story, it was with the idea of the mechanical garden in mind. That phrase was actually a child’s mishearing of “botanical garden,” which I loved so much that I wrote a story about such a place and the people who lived there. From there, I wrote several other […]

Intercity Illusions came out four years ago, collecting a variety of contemporary fantasy stories and poetry, a large number of which had been previously published.
