ONCE-UPON-THYME
What happens when nothing goes according to plan in a fairytale?
Once-Upon-Thyme is a quirky fairytale retelling featuring a drunk fairy godmother, a princess seeking a dragon, and the meddling stablehand trying to stop her.
If you're a fan of quirky characters, found family, fun yet heart-warming stories, slow burn and clean romance, all with cozy vibes and, of course, a dragon, then you will love this fairytale retelling - at its heart, a story about finding your place in the world even when you don't fit the norm.
Once-Upon-Thyme is a wonderfully twisted take on the classic fairytale formula, full of misfit characters, unexpected twists, and all about the importance of embracing life's beautiful imperfections.
After all, even the most imperfect stories can lead to the most satisfying endings.
It comes with a bundle containing ALL of the printed art and stickers from the Once-Upon-Thyme world.
- Four 4x6 printed art cards featuring the princess, the stablehand, the prince charming, and the kiss from the happy ever after.
- Three colouring pages featuring the ramshackle little Veridi castle, the mother dragon, and the baby dragon.
- Four vellum inserts with colour character art featuring the princess, the stablehand, a gorgeous illustration of the dragon, and an adorable baby dragon!
- A double-sided bookmark featuring some of the gorgeous artwork from the case laminate and a stunning illustration of the dragon
- Two 4x6 pieces of dragon art.
- Two adorable dragon stickers. One features a young dragon reading alone - nicknamed Dwagon (this one already comes as a stretch goal for all physical tier backers). The other features a mother dragon introducing Dwagon to the world of books, and Dwagon is clearly captivated!
- A beautiful 6x9" double-sided card with the dragon art from the Once-Upon-Thyme Deluxe Hardcover case laminate, and the castle art on the other side.
- A 6x9 postcard with an illustration of the princess Adrianna and a written update from her from beyond the Happy Ever After! So you can continue the story even after it ends...
MUSIC & MIRRORS:
A gender-flipped Phantom of the Opera retelling that is, at its heart, a story about those who have spent their lives behind a mask—longing to be seen, to be accepted, to finally belong.
Eric, a former escort who has always performed the version of himself others wanted, finally believes he’s found his true calling on the stage of the Grand Opera House. Ada, a brilliant but awkward inventor with a mind full of numbers and machines, wants nothing more than to slip out of society’s spotlight and build a life where she can simply be herself. Inside the opera’s labyrinth of mirrors, shadows, and secrets, the two of them begin to find acceptance, belonging—and each other.
But in the hidden passageways of the opera house lurks Marian, the reclusive owner. She never shows her face. She speaks only through mirrors. And as she becomes obsessed with Eric, the opera house transforms from refuge into a cage.
If you love atmospheric settings, slow-burn romance, and complex characters who don't fit society’s norms, and of course if you love the Phantom of the Opera and all its gothic gorgeousness, this book is for you.

- Foiled invitation to the opera house in a laser cut envelope with a foiled bookmark
- Silver foiled plain-lined notebook that is the same notebook used by Ada to record her thoughts on human interaction and help her navigate the bewildering rules of society
- Feather quill dip pen with glass ink vial, metal stand, and 6 different nibs (ink not provided)
- Black lace mask
- 6x9 foiled double-sided art card
