Phenomenal
Somewhere between Oz and Narnia, and not that far from the little alley that takes you to Hogwart’s, is a beautiful island called Wraidd Elfennol. The way that Rick Riordan brings to life the traditions of the Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Norse, Morgan Sheppard pulls her readers into the not so forgotten world of the Welsh, where magic is a way of life, and nature is something strong and powerful that must be kept in order. With strong characters and magnificent details, Sheppard takes her readers on an odyssey that leaves them laughing, gasping, and begging for more. A story that appeals to old and young alike, Water Weaver is as educational as it is page turning as it follows young and gifted Marella on her journey to discover who she is and what she is made of when she and the other Chosen of Wraidd Elfennol must travel to mystical lands in a desperate attempt to save their tranquil world from all the harm that can come from a world out of balance. Sheppard does her own weaving as she blends humor, fact, and poignant life lessons into a piece that reads like an articulate friend telling you a fascinating story in front of a cozy fire. She had hooked me with Marella, the first book in this series, but now I am an addict. Water Weaver is an extraordinary read that leaves you craving exotic foods, a warm cup of tea, and her next book.

Something new is being written, and I wanted to introduce it here first. 😁

Only in Fairy Tales is a contemporary romance set in Monmouth, a small Welsh border town where the castle ruins are free to enter, the river runs past a medieval gatehouse, and history sits in the stone of everything. A story about a woman who has quietly, without drama or bitterness, stopped expecting love. A man who, from the moment he sees her, pays attention in a way that doesn’t leave him much choice about where it leads.

It's a slow-burning story; a patient one. Set against Welsh border landscapes, old stones, and the particular atmosphere of a place that knows what it is.

I started writing it this week. I'll be sharing the journey here as it unfolds; the setting, the characters, the world of the book, without spoilers, but with enough to give you a feel for what's coming.

Only in Fairy Tales — 2026.
