Dear Night Owls,
After a long silence beneath the stars, we’re back—with stories to tell, shadows to chase, and starlight to share.
In this brand-new episode of the Shadows & Starlight podcast, Lila and Elyra return to the mic to explore:
✨ The emotional weight of time – and what it means to live, lose, and begin again.
🎧 The release of the Lila & The Dark Audiobook, narrated by the incredible Grace Noble.
🌆 A first glimpse into City & Shadows – a sequel set 100 years later in New Orleans, where chaos and desire step onto the stage.
📚 Fantastic FREE Fantasy book recs from this month's promo—perfect for stargazers and dreamers.
🎉 And a heartfelt congratulations to Sharon Barnes, Top 10 Finalist in the 2025 Indie Book Awards for Shanghai Sunset!
“Stories don’t always end. Some just wait... in the quiet between chapters.”
