If you’ve read Night of the Purple Moon, you’ve already encountered it.
The Ravenite Ring.
But there’s a difference between knowing something exists and understanding what it can do.
When I began expanding the world of the Faery Academy of QuillSnap, I knew I didn’t want magic to exist simply because someone waved a wand. I wanted magical objects to have histories, mysteries, limitations—and sometimes secrets even the characters didn’t understand.
The Ravenite Ring became one of those objects.
But The Ravenite Ring is also about something much bigger than magic.
It’s about Tansy growing up.
Tansy is still learning who she is and where she belongs. She doesn’t always feel brave. She questions herself. She makes mistakes. And sometimes the things happening around her feel much bigger than she is.
I think we’ve all felt that way at one time or another.
One of the things I love most about Tansy is that her courage doesn’t come from knowing exactly what to do. It comes from continuing even when she doesn’t know. She is learning to trust herself, to believe that she is capable of more than she realizes, and to understand that being afraid doesn’t mean you can’t be brave.
And maybe that’s part of growing up at any age.
Sometimes we spend so much time wondering whether we’re ready that we don’t realize how much we’ve already grown.
The Ravenite Ring has its own mysteries to reveal, but so does Tansy.
And neither one is finished yet.
Now the ring has an adventure bearing its own name:
The Ravenite Ring
Book Two of the Faery Academy of QuillSnap series
I won’t tell you its secrets here. You’ll have to discover those with Tansy.
But I will give you one warning:
Never assume you know everything a magical object can do.
And maybe never assume you know everything you can do, either.
Especially in QuillSnap.
And there’s more magic coming later this month! ✨ A QuillSnap book launch party is on the way! We’ll be celebrating the books, the 2nd anniversary of the publishing of the rebranded NIght of the Purple Moon, the characters, and this growing world together. Watch for all the details coming soon!
✨ Sparkle Every Day! ✨
