On Stories, Imagination, and the Worlds We Build

L.S. Franco, Conjurer's Prophecy trilogy author

Hello, dear readers,

Have you ever stopped to think about how a single story can ripple outward, creating connections far beyond what we imagined when we first put pen to paper? Writing, for me, is not just a craft—it’s a doorway to countless possibilities. Every word, every chapter, every character is a thread in a tapestry (oops—scratch that word, no tapestries here! 😉).

When I began writing The Conjurer’s Prophecy trilogy, I had no idea how much it would shape not only my imagination but also the way I look at the world. Each book has been a challenge—a battle, even. There were times I doubted myself, times I wanted to set the manuscript aside and “just think about it tomorrow.” But the love for storytelling, and for the chance to connect with readers like you, kept me going.

Through The Pandora’s Box and The Oberon Stone, and now as I prepare to share The Temporal Scythe with you, I’ve learned something deeply humbling: these stories don’t just belong to me. They belong to us. You, the readers, bring the world of my books to life in ways I never could on my own.

Whether you’re flipping through the pages at midnight, discussing plot twists with your friends, or imagining yourself standing in the Downtown-Verse (or running away from a certain witch with a green beard!), you are part of this journey.

I want my books to be more than just entertainment. My hope is that they’ll leave behind something lasting—a whisper of courage, faith, and the endless possibilities of redemption. Because if there’s one thing I believe, it’s this: every ending is just the beginning of something greater.

Thank you for walking this path with me. I can’t wait to hear what The Temporal Scythe will mean to you when it releases in February 2025.

Yours,


L.S. Franco
Author, dreamer, and someone who believes in the power of a good story.

  The Journey Behind the Pages Hi everyone, Writing has always been my way of understanding the world—or perhaps escaping it, just a little. When I was younger, I’d get lost in the pages of books, imagining myself in faraway lands, wielding magic, or standing bravely where the heroes stood. Back then, I never imagined I’d someday be creating those worlds myself. Yet, here I am, pouring my heart into stories that I hope will inspire, thrill, and maybe even challenge you. When I started  The Conjurer’s Prophecy  trilogy, the idea felt like a flicker—a small spark of a story. I didn’t know it would grow into this sprawling adventure filled with danger, hope, and complex characters who feel so real to me now. But as the pages piled up, so did my conviction: this was a story worth telling. Not because it was perfect, but because it was raw, honest, and a little messy—kind of like life itself. I think that’s the beauty of storytelling. It doesn’t have to be flawless. It just ha...

Why I Write Fantasy Worlds – A Journey from Children’s Books to RPGs and Beyond From my earliest days, storytelling felt like a natural part of me. I started with children’s books—not just reading them but creating them. I’d write the stories I wanted to read, ones with worlds and characters that felt as magical as anything I could imagine. I’d even illustrate them, bringing my ideas to life on every page. There was something powerful about the feeling of finishing a story and holding it in my hands, even if it was just for me. As I got a bit older, poetry became my passion. I poured my thoughts into lines and rhymes, sometimes daydreaming in class and writing poems in the margins of my notebooks. I wanted to share my work, to see it resonate with others the way it did for me. But I was too young to join the local poetry competitions; they had age restrictions that kept me from the stage. Still, I’d go to the events, watch others recite their poems, and feel the thrill of being part of...
