Future Projects I've Got Cooking

A novella in the TGKatS universe starring Amaryllis Wild and Vali Kirkavall. Amaryllis is 7 when the story begins, and the novella will follow her life through Foxxglove's birth, highlighting flashbacks and stories hinted at in the main series.

​

Another novella in the TGKatS universe about a pirate queen named Grace who goes to war with the Alundan branch of the Sasori Raj. Taking place roughly 20 years before the main story begins, it will include some of Arkaemor's favorite pirates.

This novella will be part of a larger series of fantasy "pirate retellings," featuring indie authors from around the world!

​

A standalone historical fiction novel set just after WWII in rural Alabama—with an Alice in Wonderland twist.

Will is a soldier waiting to begin a new chapter. Alice is a young girl who speaks to no one and rarely leaves her room. After witnessing a few strange occurrences, Will finds himself drawn into a mystery that may be far darker than it first appears.


A trilogy that screams Avatar: The Last Airbender meets fae-like creatures in a world with Pandora-like vibes. An outcast and a dragon-raised boy must join forces to confront powerful enemies and save the future of a persecuted people.

​

A dystopian standalone (maybe?) that explores the value of happiness in a world of sin. It features a handsome criminal with a heart of gold, a ruthless kingpin, and a girl searching for her missing sister who finds herself in way over her head.

​

A standalone about a dark circus run by a soul-stealing master. When a wayward woman stumbles into a world of sorcery, tricks, and monsters, she discovers the line between villain and victim is way thinner than it seems. Steeped in Celtic lore, this dark fantasy explores the meaning of family, the price of a bargain, and whether one lost soul can save the people she comes to love.

I am so excited to introduce you to J.S. Helms!

It's been a dream to publish works outside of my own and help other creatives and dreams reach for the stars. At last, I've been given the opportunity to begin that journey.

​

J. S. Helms is the pen name of Julie Helms, a wife, mother of two grown daughters, and—most recently—a grandmother. Over the years, she has been a sheep breeder, homeschool mom, curriculum store owner, and Bible study teacher.

​

She writes fiction that explores biblical themes through story rather than explanation, seeking to make complex theological ideas more tangible and human.

​

Welcome to the Vellichor and More family, Julie. I'm thrilled to have you!

In this epic fantasy about redemption, family, and the power of love in the face of ruination, can hope survive when everything else falls apart?
