Speculative Fiction at the Intersection of Queerness and Neurodiversity

An alchemical gaslamp fantasy full of romance, wisdom, wit, more than a dash of magic.

Charlotte Price is a mess; perpetually tardy, chronically unfocused, and indecisive to a fault. She’d hoped that apprenticing for London’s only master alchemist and private detective would help solve her problems, but her first investigation will test her limits in ways she never imagined. On the trail of a dangerous magical drug, Charlotte’s mentor vanishes without a trace. Lost, overwhelmed, and inexperienced, Charlotte must use everything she’s learned, and improvise the things she hasn’t, to track down her tutor.

About Me

I’m Ashley and I’m a sci-fi and fantasy author and professional astronomer. When I’m not studying the intricacies of galaxy evolution and artificial intelligence, I’m plotting out and writing character-driven speculative fiction at the intersections of queerness and neurodiversity. In my downtime, I enjoy picking up and putting down heavy objects at the gym, playing table-top RPGs, and I developed a taste for going to raves at the age of thirty.
