Folklore

Bones and blood scatter across the forest floor, while the beasts of your nightmares call out through the trees.

Folklore echoes throughout generations, felt in the subtle power pulsing through each story. With each telling, the characters tread, transgress, and transform. Through this door, magic and madness dance gleefully with the macabre.

Fables

Deep in the woods, you can choose between the path of needles or the path of pins, but at which end does the wolf wait?

Fables connect us to the deep mysteries of storytelling, introducing us to the enigma of the ancient world, the moral rules woven into each yarn, and the ways in which one might avoid—or fall into—their fate.

Burnt Leaf Press

Burnt Leaf Press is the publishing collaboration between two lifelong artists—L.M. Riviere and K.M. West. Together, they bring 10+ years in the publishing industry and decades of experience in music, art, photography, graphic design, and, of course, authorship. With several titles between them, they recognized a similar call in the dark and followed that devious pull toward the fables and folklore that haunt us all.

Riviere and West travelled parallel paths, often hand-in-hand, and now they’ve come together to create something as magical as themselves.
