Baby of Mud and Blood
In colonial New York, a woman’s desperate act of creation blurs the boundary between miracle and monstrosity. Her child, born of mud and blood, grows restless beneath the weight of her love — and hungry for more than she can give.
Blending history and folklore, Baby of Mud and Blood explores the nature of evil and the hope of redemption in a world where faith falters, hunger rules, and love may be the most dangerous magic of all.

A reclusive potter navigates the weight of isolation and rumor in 18th-century New York. After a confrontation with a figure whose words linger like shadows, her once-flawless craft falters as doubt and fear seep into her work. As the town’s whispers grow louder, she grapples with a choice: to retreat into silence or risk everything to reclaim her voice. When a mysterious event looms on the horizon, will she find strength in her art—or succumb to the forces that seek to define her?
