We discussed her life in Italy, her faith in Christ, her struggles, her family, her new book and even sneaked in a conversation about Taylor Swift.
Alex would like to publish books inspired by her love for art history, Italy, and all things fantastical and mysterious. When she's not writing, she can be found feeding her obsession for Victorian literature or playing her flute.
OF CONSTELLATIONS AND CLOCKWORK (Available November 20th, 2024)Story-weaver PublishingIn a crumbling republic where the ancient system of values—and the noble families who upheld it—has been torn down, Clemenza Giudice, a clockmaker, has one goal: do whatever it takes to regain her family’s noble status. Even if another noble dies as a result.

Episode Thirty: Chapter 31

With the people of Brecon tucked away in Lord Gandwy’s keep, Cardigan and company must begin their next task - securing an army to overthrow Zorreale, but they can’t do that safely without dealing with the spy. Flint traps his hound in time to reveal Vera’s transformation back into a human. Priest Michael recognizes Vera and her demonic possession, prompting him to perform an exorcism. Unseen enemies become real, new dangers, and new threats throw Flint and Rhona into a world filled with possibilities, but will Cardigan’s mission be kept secret from their enemies? Will he raise aid to save his people? Can Flint handle the truth about heaven and hell, angels and demons? Will Rhona’s heart soften toward the people she loves? Find out in the finale episode of season one of 1232.
