WONDERFICTION
What is it?
You know that feeling when you're reading a romance, and you're exhausted by the trauma that has to be overcome before anyone can be happy, and you just want them to talk to each other?
That's how we sometimes feel.
You find yourself skipping ahead because you just want to get to the good parts - the discovery, the connection filled with empathy and kindness along with the sexiness. The falling madly in love when they truly see each other.
Wonderfiction asks: what if the whole book could be the good parts? Instead of drama, it could be full of love. Joy and hope, and - now more than ever - love as a space of delight and wonder instead of struggle and misunderstandings.
This doesn't mean conflict-free or unrealistic.
Real relationships have complexity, colliding needs or plans, scars that need healing, personal failings, and moments of weakness. But those elements can exist - instead of as barriers to overcome before love is finally achieved - as part of the process of two people figuring out how to be together and create a life of love.
That's what we, Henry India and Sage, went through to create our life of love. We are soulmates and that's why we write soulmate stories. Our story is like wonderfiction and that's why we write wonderfiction.
In wonderfiction, the central question becomes "how will they turn their love into their lives?" rather than "how will they get past all the obstacles?" Watching people grapple with their faith in love, with their healing, with how to choose each other anew each day can be as compelling as watching them fight their way to it.
You've probably already read books that fit with our description of wonderfiction and loved them, even if you didn't have a name for the style. Stories where you felt hopeful instead of anxious, where you opened your heart and trusted that you can let yourself be vulnerable, where the relationship felt like an opening into wonder rather than a prize at the end of suffering.
That's wonderfiction. And that's what we aim to bring to you in every story.
