Episode 3: Lost in a Dreamworld with Rowyn Adelaide

• Bethany Amanda • Season 1 • Episode 3

Welcome back to The Mythic Mic Podcast, where myths intertwine with reality, legends come to life, and fantasy is more than just a story! In this episode, host Bethany Amanda takes you beyond the veil of sleep into a realm where reality fractures, magic lingers, and a single dream can change everything. Joining us is Rowyn Adelaide, author of Of Withering Dreams, a dark romantasy debut filled with secret realms, forgotten memories, and a love that defies time. If you love haunting dream realms, powerful magic, and romance with a touch of darkness, this is an episode you cannot miss!

🌙 What happens when an entire world is forced into six months of magical sleep?
💀 What secrets lie in a dream realm that no one remembers?
🔥 And how does one woman’s forbidden power change everything?

Rowyn gives us a behind-the-scenes look at her mesmerizing world, where an entire kingdom is forced into seasonal sleep—and their stolen time may not be as empty as they believe. She dives into the inspiration behind her dream realm, spills details about her characters (including a fan-favorite who swears too much and stabs first, asks questions later), and gives us a glimpse into what’s next.

Oh, and did we mention there’s a giveaway? Stay tuned. 👀
