Ys Goldt writes literary and speculative fiction exploring love, memory, and the quiet ways people change each other.
Her stories range from the haunted atmospheres of historical settings to richly built fantasy worlds, but always return to the same question: What does it cost to truly let someone in?

A funny and endearing steamy romance about two people who listen and respect one another! COUNT ME IN. Really done well, tasteful, and I just loved how the male protagonist really respects the female protagonist! 5 stars!

“He makes solitude sound like a duty, not a punishment. I like that. Because solitude can be so heavy… but also so clean. I think one must learn how to be alone before one can be with anyone else.”
Ys Goldt, The Strange Mercy of Listening

“When I write, it isn’t courage I feel. It is terror. But I choose it anyway. I choose to give the trembling a shape. To let it speak, even if my voice falters. And maybe that is all bravery truly is... the choice to move forward, even as one’s hands shake.”
Ys Goldt, The Strange Mercy of Listening

“She is more than an obsession now. She is a religion. And I am her most fervent, most damned disciple. I would sacrifice everything I am, everything I have, for a single drop of her grace.”
