Summer Maiden on Pause
I’ve made the difficult decision to take Summer Maiden: Persephone’s Fall out of active publication for now.
I wrote the original novella more than ten years ago as a short erotic retelling. I’m still grateful for the story it began.
But Bacchanalia has changed since then. And boy, howdy, so have I.

"A charming, atmospheric homage to Golden Age mysteries
The Harlot of St. Cecelia’s by Darcy Graves is a delightful 1920s cozy mystery that blends locked‑room intrigue with vibrant Jazz Age detail. When French actress Isabelle Jalbert is murdered, Amer" Read more of this review » |

“Freedom is the most important choice a women has, to have control over your choices. To be told what to do by no man, no being, no fate. Nothing standing between her and her destiny.”

“I begin to sing of Demeter, the holy goddess with the beautiful hair.
And her daughter [Persephone] too. The one with the delicate ankles, whom Hadês[1]
seized. She was given away by Zeus, the loud-thunderer, the one who sees far and wide.
Demeter did not take part in this, she of the golden double-axe, she who glories in the harvest.
5 She [Persephone] was having a good time, along with the daughters of Okeanos, who wear their girdles slung low.
She was picking flowers: roses, crocus, and beautiful violets.
Up and down the soft meadow. Iris blossoms too she picked, and hyacinth.
And the narcissus, which was grown as a lure for the flower-faced girl
by Gaia [Earth]. All according to the plans of Zeus. She [Gaia] was doing a favor for the one who receives many guests [Hadês].
10 It [the narcissus] was a wondrous thing in its splendor. To look at it gives a sense of holy awe
to the immortal gods as well as mortal humans.
It has a hundred heads growing from the root up.
Its sweet fragrance spread over the wide skies up above.
And the earth below smiled back in all its radiance. So too the churning mass of the salty sea.
15 She [Persephone] was filled with a sense of wonder, and she reached out with both hands
to take hold of the pretty plaything.[2] And the earth, full of roads leading every which way, opened up under her.
It happened on the Plain of Nysa. There it was that the Lord who receives many guests made his lunge.
He was riding on a chariot drawn by immortal horses. The son of Kronos. The one known by many names.
He seized her against her will, put her on his golden chariot,
20 And drove away as she wept. She cried with a piercing voice,
calling upon her father [Zeus], the son of Kronos, the highest and the best.
But not one of the immortal ones, or of human mortals,
heard her voice.”

“We gods may pretend otherwise, but it is mortals who pay the cost. If love is not pain now, it is pain and grief in the end. Every love affair ends in heartbreak or death.”
