Gheist has never been one for talking about herself, but rambling about fictional stories has always been a part of her life; so, here goes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen a single reindeer gently shook its antlers to the cold, star-laden sky, a wish was formed; a wordless desire for love and chaos and frequent little treats. When the impulse grew too strong to ignore, the wish let itself crash into a secret forest, where several flowers, a handful of shiny rocks, and a yearning memory of the sea took the form of a whispering ghost girl. She roamed the woods collecting the prattling talk of local wildlife, then formed these ideas into a soft dress, sturdy boots, and long, whimsically flowing hair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut then, because the world is what it is, Eliwood had to get a job working in IT and save the writing nonsense for weekends and lunch breaks. She spends her time with her husband and gremlin-like pets of various sizes, and when she's not working or writing, she's playing video games or planning fiendish D\u0026amp;D campaigns.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hook \u0026 Quill Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52160089194770,"sku":"9798994064313","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_63cee653-7d83-42c1-88e7-b244ca2ad89d.jpg?v=1775035415","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/bludeye-beach-9798994064313","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
