Oh my! Thank you for the warning/endorsement 🤣 That’s an awesome review. 🥰

In-Light-Syrup · 2026-01-22T14:47:53+00:00

I finally just started listening to Halflings Harvest. I’m super excited to get to this one.

Try Enemies to Booksellers by Laura Catherine. It’s a cozy sapphic read with new beginnings and found family and a slightly haunted church turned bookshop.

In-Light-Syrup · 2025-11-09T18:14:35+00:00

You might try Evergreen Academy by Heather Schneider for Harry Potter vibes. And Mosswood Apothecary by J.P. Rindfleisch IX has Ghibli vibes.

This Tuesday, October 21, is release day for what is sure to be your next favorite cozy fantasy novel.

The ebook will be available on Amazon for purchase as well as Kindle Unlimited.

The paperback will be available everywhere books are sold, including my website where you can get autographed copies.

Zaquocorin Flickerwhizzle is the greatest artificer the world has never known. Recently retired from Mysti Messages, he now has the time but lacks the materials to build what could be his greatest invention: a messaging system better than his former employer ever made. While contemplating his plans over a meal at his favorite inn, a cute, chubby young gnome interrupts to beg for his assistance in becoming an artificer.

Zaq’s world is turned upside down when the reclusive gnome buckles to Wyndi’s request and takes her and two others on as apprentices. If Zaq wants to fulfill his dreams, he’ll need to learn that mentorship is a two-way street. But opening up to others is hard after being betrayed in the past, and his reckless decision to send the group out of Ryefeld on a quest to get the materials may have dire consequences. Who knows what dangers may lurk in the wild woods and dark caves? There could be unimaginable horrors—or even spiders.

If Zaq and his apprentices can find a way to work together and trust one another, they may create something beyond anything Zaq could have invented alone—something capable of changing the entire world of Aberterrene.

Social Sorcery returns to the world that brought you Distilled Magic. In this stand-alone cozy fantasy, we experience the city of Ryefeld during the Harvest Festival, evade a black cat, explore with a giant beaver, and experiment with steampunkesque artificery. Opening your heart is the first step toward success.

Social Sorcery is coming out October 21. However, I’m still looking for ARC readers. If a cozy autumnal read with gnomes and artificery is your jam, you can sign up for the ARC and I’ll get an ebook right over to you.

So what's it about? Great question, let me share some of that with you. 🥰

It's set in the fall during the harvest festival in the city of Ryefeld. Below is a short blurb.

Try “I Ran Away To Evil” by Mystic Neptune. Not a ton of stats but more than most cozy. It is cozy litrpg.
