Andrew Lang 1844-1912 Wulvers aren't exactly a huge part of mythology, largely because they're believed to have been made up by a writer only a few decades ago. But I knew that I wanted to have one of them be a part of Whynne largely because of the variety they offered and just how interesting … Continue reading Talking about Wulvers.

The Wild Fae and Foxes in Whynne
John Bauer 1882-1918 If you have any interest in literature and have studied it at all, you probably already know about animal symbolism and trickster figures throughout folklore. If you don't, then basically what you need to know is that throughout history, animal symbolism has been used as a vehicle for moral education, political commentary, … Continue reading The Wild Fae and Foxes in Whynne
Talking about the Gancanagh’s Bride, the World of Whynne, and When the Next University of the Unseen book will be released.
Let me start off by saying surprise. Or not surprise. I don't know. If you read my blog you've gotten hints that the World of Whynne was coming, but I never really elaborated much on it. What the world of Whynne is is a monthly standalone novella series answering some questions about lore, expanding on … Continue reading Talking about the Gancanagh’s Bride, the World of Whynne, and When the Next University of the Unseen book will be released.
Selkies in Whynne and Haldia.
Did you know that while Whynne is the main country with fae, it's not the be all end all of fae/magical creatures? Well, bam, now you do. When you get into the Chronicles of Whynne, you see a country that is just beginning to open up for the first time after so long, and consequentially … Continue reading Selkies in Whynne and Haldia.
The Evolution of the Gancanagh
Today we're talking about the Gancanagh, which too me is just like a super cool topic and something that really ended up shaping the series. The original trajectory for Quill and Cobweb was so much different before these creatures and it really became something that ended up shaping the story of Whynne. Probably the most … Continue reading The Evolution of the Gancanagh
Bugul Noz, the Loneliest Seelie.
Bugul Noz. Oh my god, Bugul Noz. When you get into characters in the Chronicles of Whynne, I definitely have some clear favorites, but in five seconds or less, Bugul Noz beat them all. I originally wasn't going to include him at all, he was just a funny story I read about in my research … Continue reading Bugul Noz, the Loneliest Seelie.

Ever since, there have been whispers from humans and Seelie alike that the beasts will return to reclaim the stolen … Continue reading Ink and Foxglove, available May 19th!
About Ink and Foxglove
There's been a minor setback with the cover, and I'll be posting both here and on my Instagram once everything is settled! I still wanted to talk about Ink and Foxglove today, so here we go! What is Ink and Foxglove? Ink and Foxglove is the beginning of the Chronicles of Whynne, a trilogy taking … Continue reading About Ink and Foxglove
What Happens to Those Who Love the Fae?
I know that that’s a question I have asked thousands of times over, the mortality of humans hardly being a topic to gloss over. For many worlds, the answer is that the human partner will continue to grow older and eventually pass away, but as Winnie eludes to in the Night King, things are a … Continue reading What Happens to Those Who Love the Fae?
