Welcome!
My name is Z.M. Celestaire, and I’m the one behind @artcoffeecats. I’m an author and illustrator. I publish my own novels that center around queer characters, unique fantasy settings, and strong relationships with mental health themes involved. I don’t like dark fantasy but I’m not afraid to hit ’em where it hurts during the height of the plot.
My published work so far includes The Heartwood Trilogy, which came out in September 2023, January 2024, and June 2024. The Heartwood Trilogy is for sale at a number of Twin Cities bookstores.
I have been featured in MPR alongside such giants as Abby Jimenez and Jenna Miller. I have done readings at Comma, MiniCon, and Dream Haven Books to promote my work and have a strong following in Minnesota thanks to appearing several times in Twin Cities Pride’s Queer Writes Book Fair.
I am very excited for my next book! It is a complete departure from the urban fantasy of THE HEARTWOOD TRILOGY, and is currently planned as a standalone.
Right now, you can add CFTM to your Goodreads TBR, follow me on social media for regular updates, and preorder the digital edition of the book. Stay tuned for the opportunity to preorder paperbacks and goodies directly through me! If you’re a reader, you can also join my review team by requesting a review copy of the ebook!
Love binds the wounds that hate created.
Armed with a sword and his trauma from the Folk of Lilydale, Andrew Vidasche stumbles into half-Fae Micah’s enchanted world, beginning their spellbinding saga. The Heartwood Trilogy follows the pair as they grapple with dangerous Folk, the challenges of blending their worlds, and healing from the scars Fae magic has left behind.
