Start Here: A Guided Tour of Wander Words
A map for poetic wanderers
Welcome, wayfarer. Wander Words is a map stitched from stardust—woven with stories, wonderings, and whispers from somewhere beyond.
Here, you'll find fiction, essays, worldbuilding fragments, and the occasional cosmic whimsy. This guide offers a few threads to pull—each leading to a different constellation of posts.
Where to Begin Your Journey
Starwoven: Hear My Call is a serialized speculative fiction story about Red—born on a generation ship bound for Talamh Ru—who discovers a signal no one else believes is real. It’s about listening when no one else does. About connection when silence is louder than space. About mothers, daughters, stars, and the promises we make to be heard.
Whale’s Song
A seven-part speculative journey exploring alien communication through the lens of whale song. Great for worldbuilders and first-contact fans.
The Threaded Deep
Lore fragments, glyphs, language experiments, and mythic symbols from World Beyond the Song. Dive into the worldbuilding.
AuthorKind Archetypes
Discover your writer archetype through a playful series of profiles and a self-test. Created for authors seeking connection to their creative self.
Poetic Drift
Where wonder meets words. Reflective, lyrical, and loosely tethered thoughts for dreamers.
Sunday Whimsy
A weekly wink from the Muse. For lovers of clever nonsense, metaphor dust, and creative joy.
CharacTarot
Meet the voices behind Starwoven: Hear My Call. Tarot-style character cards, secret fears, and quiet truths.
Notes
Quick musings, behind-the-scenes insights, and stardust thoughts too small for essays, too strong to forget.
Whether you're here for worldbuilding, character stories, essays, or a little light-infused nonsense—I'm honored to have you wandering this way.
