How to Write Cozy Fantasy with the Three-Act Structure
This book is a practical, welcoming guide to writing cozy fantasy stories using the classic three-act structure. Across its nine chapters, it lays out a framework that blends warmth, community, and gentle magic with the clarity of solid storytelling principles. You’ll explore how the notion of “cozy” emerges from intimate settings, amiable relationships, and a sense of safety—even when small conflicts or subtle tensions arise. By following a clear progression—from understanding the roots of the three-act structure, through designing immersive, comforting locations, to creating kindhearted yet believable characters—you’ll discover the essential ingredients for crafting narratives that make readers feel at home in a magical world. Early chapters introduce the fundamental concepts. You’ll learn why the three-act method (Setup, Confrontation, Resolution) remains so effective, even for stories that replace epic battles with soft-spoken problems and heartfelt solutions. Next, the focus shifts to the essence of cozy fantasy itself: creating inviting villages, whimsical bookstores, and snug cafés where the real “magic” often comes from warmth, shared meals, and close-knit friendships. Characters in these places wrestle more with misunderstandings or personal insecurities than with evil overlords, maintaining an atmosphere of comfort and hope. Subsequent chapters deepen this approach by examining the Wheel of the Year and natural magic, offering festive seasonal rituals and small-scale spells that reinforce bonds with nature. You’ll see how shamanic practices can enrich spiritual connections—without overshadowing the bright, uplifting tone that cozy fantasy fans cherish. The presence of faerie beings and folklore adds yet another layer of quiet enchantment, transforming the everyday into something delightfully tinged with wonder. Practical sections show you how to apply the material directly. You’ll learn ways to structure your plot so that each act flows gently, while still giving readers a reason to turn the page. You’ll discover techniques to develop characters who feel real, flawed, and lovable. The final chapters provide checklists, exercises, and planning resources that bring everything together—ensuring your story has consistent pacing, an endearing cast, and a softly enchanting world. Whether you’re new to writing or an experienced author drawn to calmer, friendlier fantasies, this book offers you a roadmap to craft tales where safety and solace coexist with playful magic. There’s room for gentle quests, the hush of old libraries, and the shared glow of a village festival, all guided by a structured yet flexible method. In embracing cozy fantasy’s slow-build charm, you’ll learn how to shape stories that resonate with quiet wonder—and invite readers to settle in for a comforting, magical escape.
A Letter to Three Witches
Bewitched meets Practical Magic in this sparkling and quirky rom-com with an enchanted twist. When romance problems cause their powers to go berserk, a trio of witches whose family was banned from practicing magic risk getting in serious trouble with the Grand Council. Can they get their magic—and their love lives—in order before it’s too late? “An enchanting paranormal rom-com…Fans of Practical Magic will be delighted.” —Publishers Weekly Nearly a century ago, Gwen Engel’s great-great-grandfather cast a spell with catastrophic side-effects. As a result, the Grand Council of Witches forbade his descendants from practicing witchcraft. The Council even planted anonymous snitches called Watchers in the community to report any errant spellcasting… Yet magic may still be alive and not so well in Zenobia. Gwen and her cousins, Trudy and Milo, receive a letter from Gwen’s adopted sister, Tannith, informing them that she’s bewitched one of their partners and will run away with him at the end of the week. While Gwen frets about whether to trust her scientist boyfriend, currently out of town on a beetle-studying trip, she’s worried that local grad student Jeremy is secretly a Watcher doing his own research. Cousin Trudy is so stressed that she accidentally enchants her cupcakes, creating havoc among her bakery customers—and in her marriage. Perhaps it’s time the family took back control and figured out how to harness their powers. How else can Gwen decide whether her growing feelings for Jeremy are real—or the result of too many of Trudy’s cupcakes? “A lighthearted supernatural romp.” —KirkusReviews
The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches
“This is one of my coziest reads of the last year, and I find myself thinking about its enchanted setting all the time.”−Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author A warm and uplifting novel about an isolated witch whose opportunity to embrace a quirky new family—and a new love—changes the course of her life. As one of the few witches in Britain, Mika Moon knows she has to hide her magic, keep her head down, and stay away from other witches so their powers don’t mingle and draw attention. And as an orphan who lost her parents at a young age and was raised by strangers, she’s used to being alone and she follows the rules...with one exception: an online account, where she posts videos "pretending" to be a witch. She thinks no one will take it seriously. But someone does. An unexpected message arrives, begging her to travel to the remote and mysterious Nowhere House to teach three young witches how to control their magic. It breaks all of the rules, but Mika goes anyway, and is immediately tangled up in the lives and secrets of not only her three charges, but also an absent archaeologist, a retired actor, two long-suffering caretakers, and…Jamie. The handsome and prickly librarian of Nowhere House would do anything to protect the children, and as far as he’s concerned, a stranger like Mika is a threat. An irritatingly appealing threat. As Mika begins to find her place at Nowhere House, the thought of belonging somewhere begins to feel like a real possibility. But magic isn't the only danger in the world, and when peril comes knocking at their door, Mika will need to decide whether to risk everything to protect a found family she didn’t know she was looking for....
