Stories begin in shadow, unfurling into worlds.
Imagination. Impact. Transformation.
“The dark is but the light unsparked. My stories take root in shadow, where every shadow aches for dawn.”
About Winter Rose
I write speculative fiction as a way of holding a lantern to the unknown. My stories live where myth, memory, and imagination collide, always chasing the spark of transformation.
Every tale begins as a flicker — a question that won’t quiet, a fragment of myth, a shadow of what might be. Through writing, I follow those embers until they take shape: stories of resilience, metamorphosis, and the hidden magic woven into everyday life.
Winter Rose Writes is my space to share that journey with you. Here, you’ll find glimpses of my creative forge — vignettes, novels in progress, and reflections on what it means to shape a life through words. My hope is that the stories you encounter here stay with you, sparking your own imagination long after the last line.
Featured Work
From shadow into light, this is where my words take form. At the heart of it all is my debut novel,
Taken: A Mother of One — Book One of the Adherence Trilogy.
In a future where AI drains children of their humanity through neural uplinks, one mother discovers her fractured bond with her daughter may be the only spark strong enough to break the machine’s dominion.
This is only the beginning. Taken marks the first step in a trilogy where compliance fractures into mistrust, and mistrust ignites the path to reclamation.
Coming in 2026.
