👋 Meet Blimmery from MAELIN:

Even with the boarding school demanding my absolute dedication, I couldn’t stop squeezing words into the brief moments I had to breathe. Creating a world where I controlled everything kept me sane in a world where I had little control over anything at all.

👋 Meet Maelin, the title character from MAELIN:

I wish I knew that I could have saved her. Well, I suppose there’s no way of knowing whether she would have listened to me. But I wish I * tried* to save her.

I wish I knew that in just five years, she was going to die.

👋 Meet Taig from the YA dystopian novella MAELIN:

If there was one person we *knew* would make the final five, it was Taig Bitterview. The sixteen-year-old was designed to become a guardian in the Force. Blessed with the build, the brains, and the smile as intimidating as it was captivating, everyone wanted a piece of Taig. Everyone wanted to *be* Taig. It was always Taig, Taig, Taig.

So naturally, I couldn’t stand him.
