Whispers of the Willow

🌿 Help Shape the Story 🌿

I’m opening a small, cozy beta reading circle for my upcoming light novel set within the Whispers of the Willow universe.

Beta readers will receive early access to select chapters before public release and are invited to share feedback on pacing, clarity, emotional impact, and overall flow. This beta is not about perfection. Any editing will be left to the professionals. This beta about listening, refining, and growing the story together.

If you love cottagecore fantasy, quiet magic, soft lore, and stories that feel like stepping into a warm library at dusk, I’d love to have you.

If selected you’ll receive a private email with access to a password-protected reading space on my website. Inside, you’ll find the first four chapters of Whispers of the Willow, presented as a quiet, self-guided reading experience.

You may read at your own pace. When you’ve finished (or whenever you feel ready), you’ll be invited to share your thoughts through a gentle feedback form at the end of the reading space. Feedback can be as light or as detailed as you’d like. This is my first attempt at being an author so I want your genuine input.

My only request is that you do not share the link or password with anyone and you do not leak information on social media.

These archives hold the beginnings of a tale still being written: a light novel that weaves together the legends, spirits, and whispers of the Willow, introducing Skunksylvette: the Legend of Skunk. What you see here are fragments, glimpses of her world, each page shimmering between myth and memory. These archives are but the first traces of that journey.

Follow along behind the scenes through a monthly membership providing sneak peeks into the making of my newest (and probably only) light novel series.
