HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CRATCHIT FAMILY AFTER A CHRISTMAS CAROL? The Cratchit family has come a long way since Ebenezer Scrooge’s glorious transformation many Christmases past, none more so than Lucy Anne ‘Raven’ Cratchit. Inspired by Tiny Tim’s childhood illness and miraculous recovery, Raven is working to become London’s first female physician, donating her time to those who cannot afford medical care. Brit Crane grew up fighting for his life in the slums of London, protecting his ragtag gang of orphan thieves until Olivia ‘Twist’ Brownlow and Jack ‘The Artful Dodger’ MacCarron rescued them all and Brit became a teacher in their new orphanage.
In a grim not-so-distant future where debt and drugs run rampant, Margot Azenari studies memory editing alongside the offspring of the rich and famous. She dreams of erasing the bad memories from her childhood-of her father’s involvement with the Vibora drug cartel and her mother’s struggle with addiction. Margo makes plans to escape the pain of her past, but her plans go awry when her mentor, Dr. Xander, asks for her help with a top-secret project involving the President’s son.
Tina is just a homeschooled high school senior trying to get into a good music program for next fall-and trying with her best friend Raphael to snap some senior pictures at northeast Ohio’s famous mansion built in the 1920s. Little does she know that she’s stumbled across a family gathering of the Daaés. A famous musical empire with a dark not so well kept secret: their son, Eric. Eric, who has climbed the ranks of video-sharing platforms on social media, hides half of his face.
Quill & Flame got its start from best selling author April J. Skelly’s frustration with the general market. Tired of searching for good books for her high school students that didn’t glorify toxic relationships, have words sailors would blush at hearing, and graphic sex on the page, she wanted something more for her students. Quill & Flame was born.
