Hayle Coven Novels

Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Can you recommend classic queer novels for beginners?
Sure. 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' is a good start. It has a touch of queer elements within a more general story of beauty and morality. It's easy to get into as it's a well - known classic. Another is 'Maurice'. It's a love story between two men that is very touching and not too complex for a beginner to understand.

It was controversial at the time of its release in 1928 as it was one of the first novels to openly deal with lesbianism. It's about a woman named Stephen who is a lesbian and her journey through life.

What are some classic works in queer science fiction?
Well, 'The City and the City' by China Miéville has queer undertones. It's a complex work of science fiction where two cities exist in the same geographical space but are perceived differently by their inhabitants. The relationships and the unique world - building can be related to queer concepts of identity and perception. Also, 'Star Trek' has had some queer - friendly storylines over the years. For example, the character of Sulu was revealed to be in a same - sex relationship in some of the newer movies, which is a step towards more queer representation in the science - fiction franchise.

How do queer history graphic novels contribute to the understanding of queer history?
Queer history graphic novels contribute in multiple ways. Firstly, they give a voice to those who were often silenced in mainstream historical accounts. They can document personal stories, like coming - out experiences or struggles against discrimination. Secondly, they can show the evolution of queer culture over time. For instance, by depicting different fashion styles or social gathering places in different eras. They also help to break down stereotypes. By showing a diverse range of queer characters, they show that there is no single 'queer experience' but rather a rich tapestry of different lives and stories. In this way, they expand the understanding of queer history far beyond what a simple textbook entry could do.
