Autumn Dawn

MOLT Or, How Trash Became Couture and a Cat Became Business Partner A cozy portal fantasy short story (~4, 000 words) set in the world of The Pun Chef. The snake migration leaves Danielle Boone's water garden buried in shed skins. Most people call it a disaster. Danielle calls it raw material. One pun later, Molt is born - a luxury fashion line made from snakeskin that moves like silk and shifts color in the light.
Scale mail that turns the valley's worst week into its most profitable. And a certain opinionated cat has already claimed her cut. The collection drops once a year. No waiting list. No restocking. No exceptions. Perfect for fans of cozy fantasy, portal fantasy romance, and magic with a sense of humor.
