About

Aj Castelletto

Just a magical girl, long lost to the realms inside my mind. Come find me in unknown lands, meet creatures too chaotic to be real, and see all the wonders your mind seeks to explore . I am Aj Castelletto, allow me be your guide to the feral, the wondrous, and the inconceivable. Don't forget to try the pie!

I'm where all the magic happens!

I write cozy, comedy, fantasy stories that can be strange, hopeful, ridiculous, heartfelt, or occasionally all four at once.

I like stories with a little room to wander. Stories where something unexpected can happen, where the people don't always fit neatly into the world around them, and where there's usually something worth finding along the way.

Fictions by Aj

I have been escaping the world my entire life into the stories and adventures that I would create. But I never let people read it. Ever.

Until one night while drinking with my husband, 6 years ago. Alcohol does what it tends to do, become a random moment of liquid courage because of how much fun your having.

I pulled out a scene from my writing and let him read it.

I don't know what I had expected...

He began reading it out loud, so passionately, with so much excitement and enthusiasm.

He was so lost in the moment his arm shot up into the air holding an invisible sword

I could see it...

He was standing right there, inside of my story.

And while watching him, something clicked. Well...Everything clicked.

I saw my self entirely.

I didn't just want to write stories. I wanted to spend my life making people feel like they were inside of them.

Now years later, I'm a published author with my 5th book hitting shelves on September 22nd and I'm still chasing that exact feeling.

Around the books

The same hand's that spill the ink, are the same that call the venues, build the table, and spread the magic of reading. Nothing will stop me from accomplishing my dream, and spreading my stories to the moon and back.

I'm writing someone's future favorite book.

Meet Aj

Of course I want people to buy my books. But there's something even cooler than selling one.

It's when someone talks about Muse, Lark, or Hallow like they're people they know.

When you have a favorite. When you're mad at one of them. When you quote them. When something I made alone in my head becomes something we both experience. So yes, please buy my books. But mostly? Come meet my imaginary friends. I think you're going to love them.

The books

These stories, in a world of darkness and uncertainty, are the torches which can guide you away from the mundane straight into the heart of worlds untamed. Where magic waits just beyond the edge of what you think you know. Where both character and creature, and all their chaotic nature are free to roam.
