Meeting a Stag God: An Excerpt from “To Drive the Hundred Miles by Alec J. Marsh

“To Drive the Hundred Miles” by Alec J. Marsh (currently open for pre-orders on the Duck Prints Press website, through October 20th!) is a contemporary holiday romance novella starring a trans male main character who returns home for Solstice and Christmas to his less-than-accepting family. While navigating his relationship with them and the feminist Wiccan traditions they raised him with, he finds new magic he hadn’t expected…

Movement to my left caught my eye, and I turned to see a pale stag. He had an enormous rack of antlers that seemed to phase through the trees as he walked toward me. I stayed perfectly still until he reached me. We stood face-to-face for a moment, and then he leaned forward and blew out my candle.
