Aubrey Lance, Season 1: Info and Posting Schedule!

UPDATE: The completed serial is now posted! You can read it FREE right here: https://www.ccrawfordwriting.com/aubreylance-season1

-----

Hello, everyone!

I've been hard at work for the past year on a new serial, and I'm thrilled to announce it is finally underway!

This serial will be posting FREE TO READ right here on my website. ️🎉 The very first episode posted March 3, 2025, and there will be a new episode six days a week until the Season is completed!

So what is this mysterious mystery serial, what's it about, when do episodes post, and where can you find it?

I'm so glad you asked! ;)

Aubrey Lance, S.S. (Supernatural Sleuth)!

Aubrey Lance, S.S. (Supernatural Sleuth) -- Season 1: The Vanishings

Genre: Young-Adult Mystery with strong Fantasy elements

What's It About?

This is a story about trusting your instincts (and the people closest to you), learning to ask for help, leaning into your gifts, and never giving up on those you love.

But it's also a story about shapeshifters, puzzles to solve, magical abilities, disappearances, and supernatural realities existing all around us... plus lots and LOTS of literature references!

It deals with some heavy themes (grief, loss), but always, always with an edge of hope and a push toward a better future.

Here's the official blurb for Season 1: The Vanishings:

Aubrey’s theories sound crazy, even to her—but this time, they might be true. 

 **Aubrey’s theories sound crazy, even to her—but this time, they might be true.**

Aubrey Lance loves literature, but if she’s learned one thing about life, it’s that real life doesn’t have neat endings like the stories. In real life, getting lost in imagination can be dangerous.

When Aubrey’s sister Emery vanished two years ago and the police declared it an accidental drowning at the Gulf, 15-year-old Aubrey was convinced that something more was going on. After months of wild theorizing, Aubrey was finally forced to admit what everyone else had already accepted: Emery had drowned. The rest had just been Aubrey's imagination.

Now, at age 17, Aubrey has adopted a more reasoned approach. Concrete, tangible facts only—NO speculation allowed.

…Until now.

When Aubrey’s best friend Chloe also vanishes, and Aubrey yet again finds herself disagreeing with the police’s explanation, she falls down another rabbit-hole of conspiracy theories which leave her doubting her understanding of reality.

Aubrey can’t deny the facts—something strange is happening—and her suspicions about her sister’s death may have been right. It may not have been an accident.

Emery may even be alive.

The more layers Aubrey peels back, the more certain she is that Chloe and Emery are both out there somewhere, in danger…

And Aubrey is determined to find them.

Recommended Reading Age: 13 and up!

This story will be posting around 9:30 PM DAILY in a special section of the blog here on my website (every day except Sunday), and is FREE TO READ!

I've created a special landing page for the Season 1 episodes, to differentiate them from my regular/main blog post feed so they're all easy to find!

There are 67 episodes in Season 1, and it's a complete story arc (no cliffhangers!), but with potential for me to write future Seasons later if I decide to.

The first episode went live just after 9:30 PM on March 3, 2025!

I will also be doing some fun social media posts to go along with Season 1, and possibly some additional posts here on my main blog with reference info that ties into the story... which will make more sense once you see what I mean! ;)

Where to find Aubrey Lance, S.S.?

Right here on my website! http://ccrawfordwriting.com/aubreylance-season1

Each episode will be going up as a separate blog post under the Season 1 category landing page, so that it's easy to scroll down and find the episodes in order... and I'll have the commenting capability turned ON for every post, so you can leave me comments on the episodes! (I hope you will!)

Be sure to join as a Site Member on my Blog! It's FREE, and enables you to leave comments, plus gives you the option to turn on notifications (if you want to!) so you'll know when I post new episodes! Just use the Log In/Sign Up button on the top-right corner to create a free Site Member account (or to log in, if you already have one) and you'll be ready to go!

I'm excited for the launch of this story I've worked so hard and so long to finish... and so happy to be able to share this particular story with all of you for FREE. I am very eager to share this story with all of you, and I hope you'll love Aubrey and her friends (and the mystery) as much as I do! <3

Sincerely,

Crystal
