Here you'll find the stories behind the stories, along with updates on upcoming books, songs, and videos, as well as the creative journey that continues to shape this cozy fantasy universe.
Put on a pot of coffee, stay awhile, and enjoy another visit to the Hollow.
Welcome to the Roadstand Hollow Journal
If you've found your way here, welcome.
Roadstand Hollow began as a single story. It soon became something much larger—a town filled with forgotten wishes, quiet roads, blue lanterns, unexpected friendships, and second chances.
This journal is where the Hollow continues to grow.
Here you'll discover behind-the-scenes articles, updates on upcoming books, songs inspired by the stories, maps of the town, artwork, videos, and the many ideas that continue to shape this fictional world. As new visitors arrive and longtime readers return, this page will become a place to share the journey beyond the pages of the novels.
Thank you for visiting Roadstand Hollow. The lantern is lit. The coffee is warm. And there's always another story waiting just around the corner.
— Ronald Hudkins
