Many of you know my story and how reading helped pull me out of a difficult season a few years ago. What you may not know is that I didn't do it with a stack of books beside my bed. I did it through audiobooks. I have rheumatoid arthritis, and over the years I've lost some dexterity in my hands. Holding a book for long periods can be difficult. I frequently drop things, and there are days when turning pages aren't as easy as I'd like them to be. At the same time, I was travel

And while that choice may have felt simple in the moment, it mattered more than you’ll ever know. Faebles didn’t begin with scale or polish or perfection. It began as an introduction—an offering. A hope that somewhere out the

Celtic Folklore and the Roots of Modern Fantasy Fantasy didn’t begin on bestseller lists. Long before dragons filled modern pages and fae courts ruled romantasy shelves, there were stories passed from voice to voice — around fires, across fields, and through generations. These were the myths, legends, and folktales of Celtic cultures: Irish, Scottish, and Welsh stories that helped people understand the world, their place in it, and the unseen forces that shaped their lives.

Faebles Tomes & Teas December TBR A month of cozy reads, sequels we’ve waited forever for, customer recs, and holiday magic. There’s just something about December that makes a TBR feel extra special. The twinkle lights, the mugs of tea, the cold mornings that practically insist you curl up with a book… it’s peak reading season. So I’m kicking off the month with eight stories that span everything from holiday romance to dark fantasy, personal memoir, Scottish library magic,

A Gathering of Travelers: Our First In-Person Book Club Meeting November Traveling Tome Book Club Recap Today, something truly special happened. Our Traveling Tome Book Club gathered in person for the very first time at Crown & Anchor Pub in Pooler, and it felt like stepping into a warm, bookish haven — the kind of place where stories are shared, friendships deepen, and new chapters quietly begin. Although one of our Travelers couldn’t join from Houston, the table was full,
