Meet Yosrick, father of Maggie and a witch of considerable power, focused on spirits and the Pallid Realm. He has been missing and Hazel sets out on a journey to find him. Art by @hannahdanielle.bsky.social

Yosrick Bio Card
Pronouns: He/Him
Species: Deep Gnome
Occupation: Witch
Wants To: Research the Pallid Realm
Favorite Food: Meat Pies
Biggest Fear: Losing Maggie

"You should make sure she knows you actually found me. Tell her I neglected to bring my soup case on this journey, but plenty of people offered me food while I was here."
Hazel's ears stood up, and her whiskers twitched. "Is that some kind of odd code you arranged?"
"No, no." Yosrick chuckled. "But she'll know I told you to add that, I'm sure. When she was very young, l often traveled for research. Not journeys like this one, but to different towns and cities, meeting other spell casters, collecting books, and earning coin by helping all who needed it. I always packed a large suitcase to take with me, which Maggie misunderstood to be my soup case."

Meet Ms. Rosebloom, a skeleton cat possessed by the spirit of an elf. She journeys with Hazel through the land of the dead and insists she is not a cat. Read about Ms. Rosebloom and the rest of the cast in Raising Spirits, out August 13 📚 Character Art by @hannahdanielle.bsky.social

Ms Rosebloom bio
Pronouns: She/Her
Species: Skeleton Cat/Former Elf
Wants To: Be Included
Favorite Food: Smelling Baking Spices
Biggest Fear: Being treated like a cat

"Are you all quite done talking about me while I'm sitting right here?" asked the cat.
Hazel took a step closer. "I'm sorry, um...do you have a name?"
"Of course, I have a name. You can call me
Ms. Rosebloom."
Maggie wrinkled her nose. "That sounds awfully proper. Can't we use your first name?"
"No," Ms. Rosebloom said flatly.

Meet Maggie, who Hazel falls for in Raising Spirits. She’s a bookish gnome, learning to be a witch like her father, and she loves the enormous enchanted library they have in the manor. Raising Spirits releases August 13 👻 Preorder available Character art by @hannahdanielle.bsky.social

Maggie bio card
Pronouns: She/Her
Species: Deep Gnome
Occupation: Witch in Training
Wants To: Find her father
Favorite Food: Cornbread with lots of butter
Biggest Fear: Crowds of people

The cavernous library smelled of old leather, subtle vanilla, and incense, with a faint ferric undertone. Hazel took in the enormous room. It was the most incredible sight she'd ever seen.
Some people in Brookhaven had collections of books, but they would've been hard-pressed to fill even one of the many shelves arrayed before her.
"I can't believe there are so many books in here.
How do you find anything?"
Maggie pointed at the large floating tome.
"That's where Paige comes in. She knows every single book in here and where to find it."

Thanks to a 3-day weekend, the first pass at editing my next spooky cozy fantasy novel is done. Quite a few words were both removed and added, so it has more of the right words. It’s still rough. It needs at least one more, not two passes before it’s ready for my editor to take a crack at it.

Alex Peachy 📚 Cozy Fantasy Author @inlightsyrup.com · 19/05/2026

Started in on editing, going chapter by chapter making small changes and catching a lot of typos. Also making notes for later chapters where I realize there is a good tie in. Tomorrow I won’t get any edits done. I’ll be at a signing event at Brick & Mortar Books in Redmond. Come by and say hi.

Got through the first five chapters in my first edit pass.

Hazel told me last week that I was doing it all wrong again. Thankfully, I just needed to tweak things. Meanwhile, a new idea for another book popped into my head. Don’t worry. I put my brain in a timeout and we will NOT be doing that until this book is complete.

Sorry for the silence folks. There was major reconstruction with a re-write to tell Hazel’s story after she informed me that it really was hers. I’m over a third of the way through the book as far as word count and I just finished chapter 13.

Added 900 words. Now at 30,802, over a third done.
