My amazing niece bejewelled her copy of Jude! Very impressed. @LucentDreaming take note for further publications by my fellow authors...adds a certain classy quality I think!

So grateful to @LucentDreaming for helping me share this story.

[cecil fenn @cecil__fenn]

The Restorative Artist-my debut novel-is coming September 2026. It’s a contemporary gothic that dissects memory and grief.

An accomplished mortician haunted by the death of his first love pulls apart his relationships and funeral home in an attempt to escape the pain of loss.

Cover Reveal!

We’re excited to share the penultimate cover of Lucent Dreaming Issue 14. Artwork by Amy Moody!

Inspired by the circuit board, this maroon cover makes us think of the hearts behind the computers that seem to rule the world.

Thank you to all who contributed!

Many thanks to @LucentDreaming for including #TheMargaretCode in their alumni success news.
