About
Windflower is a traditional Catholic newsletter for women looking for a less academic, more human approach to topics in fashion, writing fiction, art, and the occasional random topic (because it’s one of my favorite words).
Perhaps a breath of fresh air in an otherwise gray day, I hope that Windflower will bring readers beauty, inspiration, and a greater knowledge of God’s love.
Content
Here we have Catholic fantasy and science-fantasy novels, other epic adventures in various genres, short stories, original fashion design/sewing projects, articles delving into fashion history, & interviews with current Catholic authors! There will also be occasional polls to vote on the next dress I recreate from film and history, whenever there is enough monetary support to cover the cost of fabric.
Note: for the time being, the monthly schedule shown below will be altered - fashion articles are on hiatus, so those days will be filled in by the monthly bonus chapters, when available.
The monthly schedule will look as follows, with occasional updates sent out in the newsletter, Windflower Fields:
5th - a free article
10th - a chapter of a novel
15th - a chapter of a novel
20th - a chapter of a novel
25th - a free article
30th - any fashion project posts
I’ll also be posting up to two extra chapters a month on some of the following themed days here on Substack: Warrior Wednesday, Thorny Thursday, Sci-Friday, and Sword and Saturday.
