Early morning light illuminates a winding dirt trail through wildflowers and evergreen trees, leading toward distant mountains. Gentle golden motes float in the air along the path like living fireflies, suggesting the quiet presence of magic answering a traveler’s steps.

Early morning light illuminates a winding dirt trail through wildflowers and evergreen trees, leading toward distant mountains. Gentle golden motes float in the air along the path like living fireflies, suggesting the quiet presence of magic answering a traveler’s steps.

Sometimes the first sign of magic
is simply this:

the feeling that the world
is answering back.

#lesficfri for NAME

Mage names can often be long and unwieldy, so nicknames have become even more important. But between two best friends who can't/won't admit their feelings for each other, maybe a little dangerous.

A sunlit meadow filled with wildflowers stretches across the foreground, where a wide, gently curving dirt path begins and winds forward into the distance. The trail is smooth and inviting, bordered by grasses and clusters of small flowers. Tall trees stand along the sides, their leaves catching warm golden light from a rising sun. In the background, rugged mountains rise along the horizon, partially illuminated by soft morning light. The scene conveys a sense of calm forward movement and an opening journey leading toward the mountains ahead.

The path doesn’t just take you somewhere.
It changes how you walk.

Step by step, the world opens—

A gently curving dirt path winds through a meadow bordered by tall evergreen trees. The trail rises slightly toward a soft horizon where faint blue-gray mountains appear in the distance. Natural daylight illuminates the grass and path evenly, suggesting a quiet widening of perspective rather than a dramatic arrival.

Red Moon almost touching the sky.

Mikael collapses.
Kai activates ancient formations with shaking hands.

Love, magic, and apocalypse collide inside a burning pentagram. 🌑

A stone archway opens onto a narrow dirt path leading into a sunlit forest. Warm golden light filters through trees beyond the arch, illuminating the trail while the stone walls around the doorway remain in shadow.

Sometimes the path doesn’t appear until you’re already walking.

Cover of the novel Beneath the Shell by Cameron Darrow over aw white background. Beneath it is the text: "For having eyebrows the same color as her skin, Raeny’s face could be remarkably expressive. But expressive of what, Sunny had no idea, even as those incredible eyes regarded her an extra moment. The longer it went on the warmer Sunny became, and she had no idea why—or so she told herself. The further apart they were, the closer Sunny wanted to be. She had missed Raeny in ways—and parts of herself— she’d always told herself not to. What had changed?"

A solid wooden door set in a stone wall stands slightly ajar, more than a crack but less than halfway open. Warm golden light spills through the narrow opening onto a worn stone floor, illuminating drifting dust motes. The interior beyond remains unseen, inviting without revealing what lies ahead.

Not every door is meant to be rushed.
Some open only when you’re ready to step through.

A wide landscape at sunrise shows a gently winding trail in the foreground leading toward distant mountains on the horizon. Warm golden light spreads across fields and low hills, suggesting time, stillness, and a quiet invitation to remain.

A wide landscape at sunrise shows a gently winding trail in the foreground leading toward distant mountains on the horizon. Warm golden light spreads across fields and low hills, suggesting time, stillness, and a quiet invitation to remain.

Some landscapes don’t change you all at once.
They change you by asking you to stay.

Staying often asks for a different kind of courage.

Cover of the novel Beneath the Shell by Cameron Darrow over a white background. Beneath it is the excerpt in black text: "It's been a few days since I checked on you, I wanted to make sure you hadn't gotten distracted. Or died, since you don't seem to have brought any provisions." 
"I go outside to eat and drink!" Raen blurted. The only thing that would get her in more trouble with Mivindra was an open flame. "I use the toilets upstairs, too! Go ahead and check the wastebaskets if you don't believe me!"
"That's the minimum I expect." Mivindra swept a hand over Raen's table. "I know the rules against food and drink, I wrote them. But… please bring some water down with you next time you go up to the surface world. You look parched."
Raen's tongue peeled tackily from the roof of her mouth."

Trip: RD chose this question KNOWING I literally have a PhD in magical markets, so I can only assume he has some kind of trump card hidden up his sleeve…possibly the cursed relic in question!

RD: I can spend hours in an antique store and will literally pick up anything that catches my eye. So I'm going to argue that I would find the cursed relic, even if I shouldn't be touching it. (What is RD up to?)

Trip: I can ride, and rope, and somewhat fight and forage…but I’m also a Type 1 Diabetic, so if magical healing isn’t on the table and sharpish, I will not be lasting terribly long, lol. Might be a coin toss for me. 

R.D.: You might be tempted to vote for Trip because he’s well acquainted with fae dealings and 12 feet tall…
…BUT consider: I am a CHAMPION hide-and-seeker!

RD: Farmboys don't stand a chance in my stories! Design of Darkness literally starts with a handful of violent deaths. The answer should be clear here.

Trip: All due respect to RD but I was literally raised on a ranch. I have a personal beef (pun intended) with the whole concept of farmboys. And I will not hesitate to settle scores in fiction (tho, admittedly, I haven't YET…)

A forested, green background with gold text, reading:

R.D.: I can’t even pretend I would win this one. Just read the pre-launch page for each of our upcoming Kickstarters, and I think it’lol be pretty clear who is the greater crusader for the gay agenda.

Trip: I guess I’m guilty as charged? I do tend to write a lot of queer characters, in queer worlds, with lots of queer references/easter eggs. And yeah, my upcoming Kickstarter is case in point…

(Point for Trip? or no?)

The work was never about power alone.
It was always about who walks with you.
