Convent is a debut work of historical fantasy exploring the world of witchcraft in New Orleans across both a modern and colonial timeline. The Southern Gothic revival begins following Mac LeBlanc, in modern times, on a journey through motherhood that evolves into a spiritual awakening as she learns she's a witch through her roots as a native New Orleanian. In the process, she finds a support system amongst some wayward women whom Mac manages to unite. Almost three hundred years prior, we meet Camille LeBlanc, a twelve-year-old girl with "gifts" traveling with the Ursuline Nuns from Rouen, France, to New Orleans. We get a glimpse of the origins of the female community in colonial New Orleans and the Ursuline Nuns that built it, with a magical twist. Convent is a cocktail mixed with a shot of magic, a splash of mystery, and a dash of humor. All garnished with historical fiction and the truths, I imagine, were forgotten. "Laissez le bon temp rouler" - Let the good times roll!

Stoner, Kerri: - Born and raised in Metairie, LA, the suburbs of New Orleans, I consider myself fortunate to have been shaped by such a unique place. My debut novel Convent gives a taste of the place I call home with a flavor that is uniquely New Orleans. I've always had a creative streak and have managed to find blank canvases everywhere in life. Whether I'm designing and sewing clothes, planting a garden, dressing a window, or concocting something in the kitchen, I find joy in all of it-except baking. I'm terrible at following instructions. After going through my own spiritual journey, it's no surprise that I found writing to be a therapeutic way to express myself. And so, Convent was born.Layering letters on a blank page is a new medium for me, but I like to think I've always been a storyteller. I believe everyone has a story to share, and it's our individual life journey to discover the best way to tell it. Through the work we do and the careers we choose, the art we create and the music we make, or the children we raise-our souls leave their lasting impression on the world. I hope you enjoy the small dent I've made.
