What if the stories didn’t end when you closed the book? 


Every story leaves a thread behind. The world of Emerdeen is stepping off the page and into your hands as an oracle deck filled with wisdom, wit, and just enough magic to feel personal.

I’ll be stirring up some Appalachian magic at the Appalachian WordFest! This one-day celebration of storytelling and creativity brings together authors, poets, publishers, and readers from across the mountains. It’s the perfect place to discover your next favorite cozy fantasy read—like Stirred & Spellbound and Rooted & Remembered, of course. Come say hi, grab a signed copy, and let’s chat about books, coffee, and a little bit of magic in between.

Step into a world where alchemy flirts with industry, spells spark behind brass-rimmed goggles, and every ticking cog seems to whisper a secret. Clockwork Arcana blends the meticulous with the mystical, featuring hand-forged jewelry, curious inventions, arcane art, and relics that feel borrowed from forgotten timelines. Honestly? It feels like a perfect fit. Come wander, browse, and say hello. You never know what kind of magic you’ll stumble into.

Her home is a cozy fantasy that blends art studio, sanctuary (for both humans and dogs), and tasting room—where tequila is appreciated like fine poetry and poured with purpose, much like the creative spirit of Melody K Smith in her work, Stirred & Spellbound.
