  • Interview with Stacey McEwan - Author of The Glacian Trilogy and A Forbidden Alchemy
    2025/06/14

    Stacey McEwan is the best-selling author of fantasy romance. Her books have been translated into four languages. Her high school English teacher once called her writing "above year level standard" and she took it far too seriously. Stacey received a bachelor's degree in education in 2012 and was a school teacher for eleven years. She is a content creator on multiple platforms, including Tiktok and Instagram.

    Stacey first published after book lovers of the internet encouraged her to share her story ideas. She was born and raised on the Gold Coast, Australia, and still resides in her hometown with her husband, two children and one questionable dog.


    Stacey's Books:

    The Glacian Trilogy

    • Ledge
    • Chasm
    • Valley

    A Forbidden Alchemy (publishes July 2nd 2025)


    Ledge's Blurb:

    In a place known as the Ledge, a civilization is trapped by a vast chasm and sheer mountain face. There is no way for anyone to escape the frozen wasteland without befalling a deathly drop. They know nothing of the outside world except that it is where the Glacians reside – mystical and vicious winged creatures who bring meagre rations in exchange for a periodic human sacrifice.

    Dawsyn, ax wielder and only remaining member of her family, has so far avoided the annual culling, but her luck has run out. She is chosen and ripped from her icy home, the only world she knows. No one knows what will happen to her on the other side, least of all Dawsyn. Murdered? Enslaved? Worse?

    Fortunately, a half-Glacian called Ryon offers to help them both escape, but how can she trust one of the very creatures that plagued her life? Dawsyn is a survivor, and she is not afraid to cut anyone down to live.


    A Forbidden Alchemy's Blurb:

    Nina Harrow and Patrick Colson are only twelve years old when they are whisked from their disenfranchised mining towns to dazzling Belavere City to be tested for magical abilities. Nina’s lifelong dream is to become an Artisan, a powerful elemental mage who fulfills the city’s grand ambitions, while Patrick wants only to return to his family of Craftsmen.

    Together, they discover a devastating secret: Artisans aren’t born, but chosen. With this information, they take their future into their own hands. Patrick departs for home, while Nina finds her place as one of the rarest, most coveted types of Artisan.

    When a Craftsman revolution ignites years later, Nina is captured by Patrick’s rebel group – and despite the years, he hasn’t forgotten her. In fact, he needs her help for a mission that could shift the tides against Belavere City, which she reluctantly accepts, battling the sparks between them. But when Nina’s first love reappears, asking her to betray Patrick for the Artisans, she faces an impossible choice that will determine the fate of their world.

  • Elyse Glynn - Author of Heretic Behaviour: The Secrets of Demons
    2025/03/21

    Elyse Glynn has always been a writer. Writing stories from a very young age, all she wanted to be when she grew up was an author. However, her mum gave her some advice that took her away from writing for a while. She told Elyse to go out and get some life experience first so that she actually had a story worth telling and a better understanding of human nature - so that's what she did. Over the next ten years, Elyse studied filmmaking and international relations at uni and joined the Australian Army as an officer. Although she loved her job and got a lot of satisfaction from it, something was missing. So, in 2023, Elyse switched to part-time and focused on writing a story worth telling. That story turned into 'Heretic Behaviour: The Secrets of Demons', the first in a high fantasy series.
