Welcome to the tales of Edenwood, a collection of fae fantasy stories about cosy cottages, eldritch woodlands, and the magic of found family.
The Adventures of Marmot & Marmalade Tales
Marmalade is a mysterious wood witch who dwells in a hollow red tree deep in the wilds of Faewood. Her companion (and self-appointed apprentice), Marmot, is a chaotic woodland critter with a penchant for mischief and mossy baked goods.
Together they confront the dangers of the forest, learn new magics, share tea by the hearth, and find a sense of family that stands the test of time.

Marmalade’s Love Potion Novel
If you love cosy romance, friends to lovers, found family, hurt/comfort, mutual pining, angst with a happy ending, magic & alchemy, and cottagecore vibes with a dash of eldritch darkness, this tale is for you! This tale will be edited and published in print format, this first version of the story is currently free to read!
In the final days of autumn, a young princess climbs her favourite tree clutching a folded star of paper to her aching heart.
Contained within its crisp lines are recountings of her dreams and darings… and a plea that she might, at last, be welcomed home. With a kiss for luck, she tosses her star to the southbound winds, and stumbles her way to a crumbling cottage in the deep woods.
Years pass and the constellations spin, her pleas have gone unanswered. The princess grows, and her uncertainties are buried beneath the gentle earth of spurned hopes.
It is now, when she has almost forgotten how to wish on morning stars, that an invitation of smoke and dream light arrives, carried on horseback by soldiers of a different kingdom; the Dark Moon Ball might prove her salvation.
