“He walked faster, almost running, his footsteps echoing on the pier. The wind whipped at his jacket and the lights along the railing cast long shadows. Suddenly, the music stopped, and he saw it. The carousel. Tucked away near the end of the pier. It wasn't lit up, wasn't spinning. A silent silhouette against the night sky. Yet something about it caught his eye.”
Step onto the carousel, where every turn reveals a new story.
In this collection, Ashton Camelots spins tales of fleeting moments, whispered memories, and the strange magic hidden in everyday life. From forgotten towns where time stands still to quiet encounters that change destinies, The Carousel invites readers into a world where nostalgia lingers, reality blurs, and the ordinary turns extraordinary.
