For Esther Judith Bryant, publication isn’t just a dream—it’s her way out. A book deal could pay for college and give her the freedom she’s desperate for. But after yet another rejection, she starts to fear her neurodivergence is the barrier no one in publishing will look past.
Everything changes when a strange spell drags her into her own manuscript. Suddenly E.J. is face-to-face with confused characters, unstable magic, and a goddess-sized plot hole threatening to collapse the world she created—and trap her inside it.
To get home, she must guide her characters back to the storyline and confront the insecurities woven into every corner of her narrative. But with each misstep, the darkness she wrote grows stronger.
If E.J. can’t overcome her self-doubt, the villain born from it may claim far more than her story.
