Have you seen Rogue One? Excellent. That's the tone of Blood Over Bright Haven, a standalone that has kept ACOFAE thinking and feeling all the emotions. Ugh, so many emotions. Frustration, disbelief, and sheer audacity are some of the ones that come to mind. Sciona Freynan is determined to the the first female high mage in history and she's been single minded about that fact for years. Blind to her environment outside of study, Sciona embarks on a three month journey of discovery and creation that shatters not only her faith in magic, but in society and religion as well. You know how ACOFAE loves that shit.

"Not all men, but all mages."

ACOFAE welcomes DEBUT author Lindsey Olsson to the podcast to discuss (SPOILER FREE) all things To Drown A Witch! Laura Marie and Jessica Marie are delighted to report that while writing and organizing To Drown A Witch Lindsey used a "murder board'! Longtime listeners will know how exciting this is. Join ACOFAE and Lindsey as they dive into the entire process of creating the world of Gadore. Someone is killing guards with magic and that someone can only be the witch. Or so it seems. In a world where women are being drown because men are scared, what happens when love isn't enough?

It's Jessica Marie's half birthday and here on ACOFAE that means that she gets to choose a piece of media to cover that maybe ACOFAE wouldn't normally cover. Her choice this year is "Atmosphere: A Love Story" by Taylor Jenkins Reid. A story about space, about women, about relationships, and about what happens when you finally accept all the parts of yourself that you've discovered along the way. Laura Marie actually chose this book out of a list of options that Jessica Marie suggested, and she has strong feelings about rule following. No, really! Rules are important in SPACE! They are there for a reason!

"Jail, immediately jail."
