About the novel
The story of Kit Stitcher is difficult to summarize in a blurb.
There are things about her that take time to absorb — time to settle. A certain level of immersion is required to fully understand who she is and what she can do.
It's unfair to Kit to try and explain her in a few lines of tidy copy.
Still… we can try.
The story of Kit might begin like this:
“Why was Kit Stitcher able to heal a dying Christmas tree as a child with a simple touch? And how is she able to share other people’s dreams? Why does she sense things she shouldn’t? Maybe, those things can be shrugged off.
But now, on a beachside vacation with her best friend Janna, Kit stumbles across something peculiar: an empty archway carved into a cliff. Is there anything inside of it? Anything beyond? Janna thought not initially, but what about Kit...
Join Kit and Janna as they enter an unfamiliar territory to discover a very serious problem for the inhabitants of this strange place. Can they help? Only time will well.
Ultimately, Kit faces a choice: answer the call to something greater, or walk away and carry on with her simple, blissful life.
Some doors, once opened, can never be closed.”
Readings from the novel
Chapter One — “A Bit About Kit”
Readings from the first chapter about young Kit and Oliver
Page 6 — conversation between young Kit and Oliver
“‘This is an empty dream,’ said Kit.
‘Well, I like what I like. I only make things I want to make,’ said Oliver.
‘What do you want to make right now?’ asked Kit.
‘Nothing,’ said Oliver.
‘Nothing at all? This is your dream, you can imagine anything you want,’ said Kit.
‘Hmm… Okay, I know what I want to make,’ said Oliver.
‘Great—what is it?’ asked Kit.
‘I want to make a dark, long cape to wear on my back,’ said Oliver.”
Page 11 — Oliver pushing his boundaries
“But Oliver wanted to try something. He spawned a large monster from the mountains he’d created and instructed the monster to rip up the trees Kit had planted and tear them apart.
‘Hey! Why did you do that!’ asked Kit.
‘I wanted to see if I could,’ Oliver replied.
‘But I spent so long making those trees beautiful,’ said Kit.
‘They’re just trees—who cares?’ said Oliver.
‘I care! Don’t do that again. If you do, I will be really upset with you,’ said Kit with a grimace.
‘Okay, I’m sorry. I won’t do it again,’ said Oliver.”
Page 15 — Oliver has forsaken…
In the surrounding landscape, there was flame everywhere. Oliver had fabricated tall mountains in the distance in every direction and they were all ablaze. In front of the mountains were soaring trees with deep green foliage and massive brown trunks. They, too, were all alight. In front of the trees, around the dead bodies, were dismembered animals. Dogs, foxes, deer, and others Kit could not identify because of their state.
Encompassing this were enormous, walking behemoths—the word that came to Kit’s mind was “monsters.” They appeared to be carved out of the mountainsides of the surrounding scene. They had no face. Some were ripping up trees and throwing them hundreds of meters. Others, more sinisterly, were picking up dead bodies and crushing them between their hands, then dropping the remaining pellet of flesh on the ground.
Chapter Three — “The Color Green”
Readings from chapter three, Kit is sick
Page 37 — Memories of their first meeting come rushing to Adam’s mind
“‘KIT! KIT, WAKE UP!’ he shouted multiple times, but Kit remained comatose.
He shook her repeatedly with increasing aggression. But it made no difference. He checked her pulse and breathing and found that she was, at the very least, alive.
He stood up and walked back and forth, completely stunned. But in his state of excitement, his eyes remained locked on Kit, and he noticed something: Kit’s entire body was glowing. It was faint and practically imperceptible, but after starting at Kit for some time, he became cognizant of it. What’s more, she was glowing green.
Page 35 — Kit is comatose
From the very first time he laid his eyes on Kit, Adam was struck. She was beautiful—by far the most beautiful person he had ever seen. Her hair was long and thick, and it glistened and shimmered in the daylight. Her complexion was fair, and it was spotless. Her features were striking, beginning with her eyes. Her irises were a brilliant bright blue with deep, solid black dots in the center. And the white around her eyes was pure with no visible blood vessels. Her eyebrows were dark brown and full. Her nose was small and soft, not sharp. Her lips were bow-shaped and thick and deeply red. Her cheeks were full and rosy, and her jaw was neither narrow nor wide. Her skin was soft and silky and pale. Her beauty was transcendental, ethereal even, and everyone, including Adam, noticed it. But there was something more than plain beauty that drew him to her. She was graceful in a way he’d never seen in anyone else before. There was something about her that he could never put his finger on. Something otherworldly. Kit was special, and Adam knew that before he spoke a word to her. And now, the thought of losing Kit was just unbearable to Adam. Seeing Kit in this state broke him down.
Ant’s writing journey began unexpectedly—with a short horror story called The B Bot, posted anonymously on Reddit. The story quickly went viral, sparked intense discussions, and remains one of Reddit’s most celebrated horror entries. It was later adapted and read on several popular storytelling platforms, with many readers believing it might be real.
The response lit a creative fire, and Ant began writing more stories—until the universe of Kit Stitcher began to take shape. What started as scattered ideas and midnight notebooks turned into a novel crafted over several years—quietly, privately, and with love.
Ant writes fantasy with emotional depth, psychological tension, and a quiet sense of wonder. He lives with his wife and their two beloved cats, who regularly sit on his notes and judge his plot twists.
