~ ABOUT "BRIGHT STAR" ~

Bridgette Conner is in her early 20s, studying violin at a university in the American South. She's a part-time waitress, a full-time creative, and for all intents and purposes, a pretty normal twenty-something living a pretty normal life. She has senior year finals coming up, a few summer classes to round things out, and after that? Bridgette hasn't given it much thought.

One Sunday in 2018, a newcomer enters the diner where she works. And suddenly, Bridgette has many, many thoughts about what comes next: Magic is for fairytales. Her life has been anything but.

​

... Until now.

"Bright Star" follows Bridgette as she begins to tackle an uncertain, constantly changing present based on a past she didn't know was hers to claim. The world in which Bridgette grew up is very different from the possibilities she's now presented with — if she is willing to join forces with Elves and Fairies, witches and Sanguisuge coteries, Tieflings and Baetalü, to make possibility reality.

Immersed largely in the history of the Salem Witch Trials and Civil Rights Movement, melded with modern-day challenges of changing colonizer mindsets and confronting one's own economic and social biases, "The Meridian Trilogy" is as much a fantasy series as it is a lens through which to view twenty-first century politics and global lifestyles. Intensely researched, meticulously detailed, combining fictional worldbuilding with real-life happenings, it's a rarity in the genre ... and perhaps like Bridgette Conner, something new in its entirety.

​

The saga begins now. Will you join us?

*** Please note "Bright Star" contains strong language and themes related to mental health.

~ ABOUT "Triumvirate Rising" ~

— SPOILERS BELOW if you have not read "Bright Star"! —

.

.

.

The Era of the Liluthuaé Has Begun.

When last we heard of Bridgette Conner, fated Elfling "savior" of worlds both magic and non, she crossed a spelled barrier into the secret world of Palna: a country encapsulated in its own borders, home to ill-intentioned Craft Wizardry and the potential threats she was born to fight against. 

That's the last anyone in greater Heáhwolcen heard of her, too.

As she immerses herself in this mysterious country, her comrades charge themselves with rescuing her, while also determining how to handle a second potential civil war within their own borders. Old legends are retold and new truths are revealed. 

But the biggest secret of all could bring everything crashing down. The biggest secret could destroy the Samnung, Heáhwolcen, and by default, the world below. There's a member of the Samnung who's been hiding something; who isn't all they seem to be. And in order for the task of the Liluthuaé to be fulfilled, that which is hidden must come to light ... for the Bright Star does not shine alone.

*** Please note "Triumvirate Rising" contains strong language, themes related to mental health, and scenes of an intimate nature.
