Every legend begins with a single choice
Step into the world of The Sources of Shantor.
Meet J. M. Kelts
Joelle (penname J. M. Kelts ) rites emotionally rich epic fantasy where magic is only part of the battle.
Her stories explore identity, sacrifice, resilience, found family, and what it truly means to rise after loss. Inspired by mythology, psychology, and the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit, she creates worlds where every scar has a story—and every choice changes history.
When she's not writing, Joelle is a mom to two incredible children who continually remind her that adventure exists in everyday life. She finds freedom on the open road with her motorcycle, balance on her yoga mat, and inspiration in the quiet moments between. And if she's deep in a writing session, there's a good chance you'll find her Siberian Husky, Nova, curled up faithfully at her feet, keeping watch over every chapter.
J. M. Kelts writes stories where courage is forged, hope endures, and legends are born.
White Change
The kingdom believes the Oro are extinct. They are wrong.
For 30 years, the kingdom of the Cynth has lived under a single truth: the Orowye, masters of an ancient Source of power, were destroyed in the war. History is settled. The past is buried.
Until it isn't.
After his village is attacked and everything he loves is ripped away, Wylen Falconer is thrust into a world of dangerous secrets, forgotten powers, and a destiny far greater than he ever imagined. As hidden truths begin to unravel, he discovers that the stories he was raised to believe were never the whole story, and that the fate of Shantor may rest in the hands of those that history tried to erase.
Across the kingdom, Princess Sitara Dawn is trapped within the glittering walls of a palace where loyalty is a weapon and trust is a luxury. As political tensions rise and ancient forces begin to awaken, she must decide whether to protect the crown she was born to inherit, or risk everything for the truth.
As war stirs, alliances fracture, and forgotten magic returns, Wylen and Sitara are drawn toward a future neither of them chose, but both may be destined to shape.
