Welcome to my Myth-Stained Worlds
Step into realms of buried prophecy, wild magic, and haunting beauty. I'm L. A. Beal, a queer fantasy author weaving tales of love, legacy, and rebellion in crumbling kingdoms and cursed deserts. Whether you're drawn to slow-burn romance, lore-rich worldbuilding, or morally complicated heroes, you're exactly where you belong.
The Library
My work sits at the intersection of high fantasy and romantic myth. If you love:
Prophetic dreams and forbidden magic
Slow-burn queer romance
Found family dynamics with bite
Enemies-to-lovers (and back again)
Expansive worldbuilding with political intrigue
Then you’ll likely fall in love with these worlds. Influences include Tamsyn Muir, Sarah J. Maas, Naomi Novik, and Dimension 20’s narrative arcs.
