Love, Loss, and Painted Secrets

Love, Loss, and Painted Secrets

I’m pleased to announce that my short story “Focal Point” is now available from Haven Speculative!

This is my second published story from my lumastration universe (and I have two more in the pipeline that are awaiting their own publication days)!

This story began as a much larger novelette, an exploration of grief, shameful secrets, and the vulnerability of the road to emotional healing, all through the lens of a painted art form that allows its artists to infuse their own emotions into the paints.

Over time, I whittled the story down to a shorter version, but much of the original work on it contributed to the framework for the greater world of my novel, The Counter-Ward, which I’m in the process of revising.

I hope you enjoy this one! 🙂
