A Story of Threads
I’m Connie Nolte, a writer of romantic, time-touched fantasy and quietly powerful speculative fiction. I blend ancient myth and soft science fiction to explore memory as magic and love as a force that alters time, history, and fate.
I have always been drawn to the things that live between.
Between languages. Between cultures. Between what was and what might be remembered. Stories that live between worlds, past and present, folklore and future, silence and song.
I was born in Germany, in a place steeped in old stones and older stories. But it wasn’t until I came to Ireland (where the hills breathe and the sky is dramatic enough to deserve its own trilogy) that something in me began to fully unfurl. It didn’t just feel like home. It felt like the kind of place where time might be folding in on itself, if you listened hard enough.
I’ve spent my life working in tech, games, language, and story, localising worlds, shaping narratives, and listening deeply to how people connect. That background shapes everything I write. I believe in emotional resonance, world building with precision, and characters who carry both scars and hope. I’ve always asked the same question: How can we make people feel more? How can we make meaning travel, across silence, across screens, across time?
And quietly, always, I wrote.
At first, just for myself. Scribbles between spreadsheets. Myth-flavoured daydreams that wouldn’t leave me alone. The stories started small, little whispers, half-scenes. But they grew teeth. They demanded more. I write to remember what’s been forgotten: old truths, wild places, the names whispered in the wind.
And then one day, a girl stepped out of fire and spirals and said: I remember everything.
That’s how The Veilcutter Saga was born, from that place between grief and wonder, time and transformation. It’s set in a world where time folds, the land breathes, and the thread of love stretches across centuries. It’s the story of a girl who wasn’t supposed to exist, and whose love bends the rules of the world.
A story about resistance. About power and softness. And what happens when we choose to become more than the world allowed us to be.
Now, I write for the ones who feel too much.
For the romantics. The rebels. The soft-hearted warriors.
For anyone who has ever looked at the sky and thought, something is watching, and maybe it remembers me.
I blend folklore with soft sci-fi. Sacred feminine power with system-breaking love. There is memory magic, found family, time that listens, and cats who may or may not be visitors from another timeline (they refuse to confirm).
I write for the ones who have been told they feel too much.
For the ones who know softness is strength.
For anyone who has ever looked at a closed door, and decided to rewrite the blueprints.
If you have ever felt like you were made of too many places.
If you have ever dreamed of rewriting the story you were given.
If you believe that time listens, that memory matters, and that love can be a kind of magic.
Then I think we have always been connected.
You are exactly where you are meant to be.
