Who We Are
We offer a boutique experience for literary lovers and anyone looking for something a little different.
From our very own greeting card line designed, printed, and crafted in our little studio in Metro Atlanta and curated books in our MoonRavens Book Trove subscription, to paper & novelty gifts, kimonos that tell a story, bookish tees, and more, our collection is unique and hand-picked just for you.
Taking inspiration from literary giants like Jane Austin and Edgar Allen Poe to modern-day authors and artists such as Sarah J. Maas and Jean-Michel Basquiat, we have a little something for everyone.
Thanks for stopping by—we hope you'll stay a while.
We have so much more to show you!
About Me
I am an Atlanta-based business owner, writer, wife, mom, sky-watcher, and magic-maker.A few years after the loss of my two oldest sons, who were in a car crash in 2017, I decided to step back from my corporate role and have been freelancing as a copywriter ever since. Throughout the changes in my "day job", I've also been building my little business behind the scenes—unsure of where it would take me or how it would evolve.

The Graceseeker
The Graceseeker has been a labor of love in honor of my boys and was my first venture in 2019; it has continued to transform through the years.
I'm excited to announce that The Graceseeker is moving to Periphery Mill and becoming its own collection (and more!), known as Grief & Alchemy.
Periphery Mill
As an avid reader, I have been in love with old books my entire life. It's an honor to touch such delicate treasures that have been held by many hands throughout the decades and survived to tell the story—beloved paper-filled pages that carry lifetimes within them.
MoonRavens Book Trove.
With my lifelong love for books, it only makes sense that I would find a way to bring that into Periphery Mill.
MoonRavens Book Trove represents the part of me that simply loves to read, starting with my favorite genre: Fantasy. This book subscription is for anyone whose idea of a great time includes venturing to every quaint used book store in the city, opening fairy mail from your online besties, and adding new books to your already extensive TBR.
Inspiration comes in many forms, and I find it every day—whether through grief, love, friendship, reading, or pride in being a woman, wife, and mother.
Modern. Day. Magic.
Welcome to Periphery Mill.
I look forward to creating a little MAGIC together.
