Lanterns of Evanescence

Lights of Evanescence is a monthly series featuring standalone historical fiction short stories that shine a soft light on forgotten corners of the past. These are not sweeping historical epics, but quiet, intimate tales -glimpses into the lives of those history left in it's shadow.

Each story is a flicker -grief, beautiful, and haunting. 

• Original short stories rooted in historical settings
• Standalone narratives -no required reading order
• Emotionally-driven, character-focused prose
• A blend of fictional imagination and historical atmosphere
• Quiet, human moments from across time: a stolen glance, a fading letter, a life erased and remembered

A new short story is published at the last Saturday of every month, inviting readers to slow down, reflect, and drift for a moment into another time.

The name reflects the heart of this blog -stories that appear like flickering lights in the darkness. They may be brief or delicate, but they burn with meaning. These are the soft glows of truth and emotion that illuminate the edges of history -just long enough to remember what was almost lost.
