Hanson Ashwood is an emerging author of fantasy and fairytales. He weaves narratives rooted in folklore and the intricacies of human behavior, with a strong emphasis on introspection. His debut short story, "Marigold," captures the essence of his work, offering a fresh perspective on traditional fairytales. His stories do not promise happy endings; instead, they reflect emotional depth, harsh realities, and timeless themes that linger in the mind long after the ink has dried and the last page is read.
