ONGOING STORIES

Welcome to my ongoing fiction serials, where new chapters are released regularly as each story unfolds. If you've ever wished you could experience a book the way you watch your favourite TV series, this is the place for you.

 My stories are serialised across [**Inkitt**](https://www.inkitt.com/ClareDugmore), [**Royal Road**](https://www.royalroad.com/profile/287353), and [**Ream**](https://reamstories.com/claredugmore). If you're discovering my work for the first time, Inkitt and Royal Road are a wonderful place to begin. If you'd like to explore my growing library of stories—including completed novels, exclusive serials, and behind-the-scenes posts—I'd love to welcome you over on [Ream](https://reamstories.com/claredugmore). 

Whichever platform you choose, you'll be able to follow the journey one chapter at a time, with opportunities to comment, react, and share your thoughts as the story unfolds.

With short, bite-sized chapters and regular updates, it's the perfect way to escape into a new world—one episode at a time.

## Magic, Dreams and A Place to Belong

Daphne Fletcher has dreamed of studying at the legendary Arcanium for years, but as a human, the gates have always seemed closed to her.
