A BIT ABOUT GARRITY

Garrity Beales is a freelance creative writer, novelist and artist who relishes exploring the facets of human nature in all its complex glory through transformative works in fanfiction, provoking free-verse poetry, original bodies of fiction and through the stroke of her paintbrush.

 

A Professional Interior Designer/ Project Coordinator specializing in Retail, Restaurant, and Commercial design for almost 15 years, Garrity shifted her focus to the field of Electrical Engineering, alongside volunteering in various capacities at her local Children's Hospital.  Behavioral management of how humans operate and function within a space was always her passion, and thus she shifted once more into the realm of Security design, focusing on electronic security systems and threat/risk assessments for clients of all varieties. 

 

Storytelling, through use of words and visual media, has been a driving force of interest for her since she was young; a prominent thread that’s continually woven itself throughout her professional and personal lives and is an outlet she strives to continually grow and refine.  

 

PROFESSIONAL WRITING:

Garrity has a varied portfolio of professional work produced as a freelance writer, ranging from product case studies to persuasive blogs to B2B and B2C content.

LITERARY WORKS:

She currently has fourteen stories published in the Harry Potter Fandom online, both in novel length format and short stories.  Through the freedom of the online platforms and the power of transformative fiction, Garrity's works explore topics such as PTSD, mental health, societal expectations, accessibility, ethics, and sexuality, along with other impactful topics and experiences. Her works can be found on AO3.

 

She is currently working on her debut novel, 'Entwined through Ink and Blood.'

 

PAINTINGS AND ARTWORK:

Acrylic and watercolor are her mediums of choice, however, ink and other means of artistic expression also call to her. A commissioned artist, she has also donated her work for fundraising prizes. Her current focuses are in watercolor and digital illustration, while honing her hand lettering typography and branding skills.

Entwined through Ink and Blood

Synopsis

A women finds a diary in the attic as she cleans out her childhood home following her parent's accident that took her dad's life and left her mom in a coma. 

The diary contains an enchantment that sucks her into the pages, allowing her to experience the events described in the pages, one 'scene' at a time. 

Through these flashbacks, she learns of family and town held secrets; of betray, fraud, and mysterious disappearances. Possibly murder. Those she meets have influences both in the past and in her current time.

How will she stop the growing malevolence that flows from the page, as she finds it impossible, once started, to stop reading. As she makes her way through the diary, the line between past and present, between memory and reality, becomes blurred.

And secrets long past suddenly surface to become a modern day nightmare she'll need to work against time to halt.
