Silver lightning that strikes thrice, foretelling uncertainty and adventure in Zantoris. Twelve-year-old Kendra Astor discovers she belongs not to her human family, but to the Land of the Pixies — even though she functions in ways a pixie shouldn't. With three pixies she barely knows, Kendra fights turbulent waters, a wicked curse, and a strange watcher — and learns what four friends can face together.

About

Hi, I'm Sasha.

I'm a high school student who writes fantasy novels about friendship and poetry about everything else.

My debut novel, Silver Lightning, was published when I was in school — written, revised, and polished between classes and homework. Alongside fiction, I publish poetry and short stories on Medium, exploring memory, growing up, and the way minds wander.

This space collects my published work — my novel, my poems, and the milestones along the way.
