Meet Fake Geek Girl, the band that plays nerdy songs at the university bar every Friday night, to a mixture of magical and non-magical students: lead singer Holly writes songs based on her twin sister Hebe's love of geek culture though she doesn't really understand it; drummer Sage is an explosive sorcerous genius obsessing over whether Holly's about to quit the band to go mainstream; shy Juniper only just worked up the nerve to sing her own song in public and keeps a Jane Austen themed diary chronicling the lives and loves of her friends. When the mysterious, privileged Ferd joins their share house, everything starts to unravel...

Unmagical Boy Story

2016

Viola Vale, Ferdinand Chauvelin & Jules Nightshade had everything: wealth, family legacy, powerful magic and high status at Belladonna University's College of the Real. When Chauv lost his magic, he ditched Viola and Jules for a bunch of geeky, tragically unmagical students on the wrong side of campus. What would you do if a rock band stole your best friend? Go drinking with the enemy, obviously. A Belladonna University novella.

The Bromancers

2017

Our favourite witchy rock band, Fake Geek Girl, are road-tripping to a magical music festival in a wi-fi free zone on the same weekend that the season finale of their favourite TV show drops. Can they avoid spoilers? Can Hebe, Holly, Juniper & Sage camp in tents for three days without murdering each other? Can coffee really fix EVERYTHING including missing band members, messy relationship drama and obsessive fan shenanigans? Friendship is magic, but if you pile too much friendship on top of too much magic over one weekend, the results are bound to be explosive.
