I write royalty stories set against fantastical backgrounds. My characters have #PrincessProblems but they always get the guy! When you subscribe, you’ll receive free chapters from several stories I am writing at once.

About Solo Storm
I write romantic fantasy (romantasy) and sci-fi (romansci-fi?) with royalty as main characters (mostly princesses).
I grew up on major franchises like Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Star Trek, and the Chronicles of Narnia. Other favorites of mine include Avatar, The Hunger Games, Twilight, The Mortal Instruments, The Vampire Diaries, The Witcher, Westworld, Game of Thrones (aside from that ending!) and so many more.
I also read a ton of romance and have another pen name that writes contemporary romance. I’m a huge Jane Austen fan. And while fantasy is very much my first and greatest love, shows like Bridgerton, Emily in Paris, Downton Abbey, Victoria, The Crown, Reign, Gossip Girl, and so many more are some of my favorite stories when I’m not up for something intense or heavy.
I really like romance, teen drama, paranormal creatures, almost any type of fantasy, and space opera done well.
I do not much like horror or thriller, and you won’t find sad, depressing, or nonsensical endings in my books.
One last thing: Solo Storm is a pen name. Pen names are common in writing and I have several. My real name is Monica Leonelle, so if you see me having an identity crisis or not responding when you call my name, it’s because of this!

About This Substack
This Substack is strictly for the fiction content (the content that goes into the books) and the regular, ongoing updates I make. I sometimes drop bonus content from the books here, but it’s not a regular feature.
If you’d like to get bonus and behind-the-scenes content, I post specifically on Ream and Patreon for that. On Substack, I’m only allowed one paid tier and I’ve decided to make that the $5 level. On Ream and Patreon, I have multiple tiers that go higher than $5 and you can get additional content there.
If Substack ever changes this, I may add tiers going forward (not retroactive).
