I write fantasy, exploring ancient tales and characters through mythic retellings. I'm particularly enchanted by Celtic-Irish myth, folklore, and history.
Read my latest Substack article and get a sneak peak at an excerpt from my upcoming novel, Prelude to a Poet-Seer: Book of Fedelm I.

The Castle & the Cloister by @lauraeweymouth.bsky.social is one of the best fantasy books I've read this year. Wanted to give it a shout out because I haven't seen it discussed much.

macabre = “muh-KAHB”

Worcestershire = “WOOSS-ter-sheer”

omnipotent = “ahm-NI-puh-tunt”

reticent = “RET-uh-sunt”

epitome = “ih-PIT-uh-mee”

myriad = "MEER-ee-ud"

Never make fun of someone if they mispronounce a word.

It means they learned it by reading.
