Stories for the curious, the seekers, and those who know that the best mysteries are the ones we carry in our blood. Discover a world where the past is never truly still.

 

 

Welcome to Sol y Sombra Story Studio

My stories are born from Dominican roots, ancestral whispers, and the messy beauty of becoming. I believe the heart of a world is found in the pages, not the profile, so I keep the focus where it belongs: on the women navigating transformation and the quiet magic woven into their everyday lives.

For a long time, motherhood, work, and life in motion kept these stories waiting. New creative tools finally helped me unlock the door, but the soul of the work is entirely mine; every rewrite, every cultural thread, and every mystery is shaped with care and intention.

If you’re here, it’s because you feel the pull of magic, memory, and mystery too. Estas en tu casa.

Start With:
The Weight of Forgotten Names

In Santa Tierra, the past doesn’t just haunt,  it speaks.

When a museum curator uncovers a sealed box of forgotten names, she doesn’t just revive history; she awakens a lineage of magic she wasn’t prepared to carry.

Now, she must face a spirit with her family’s face and a secret her grandmother died to protect. Some doors, once opened, can never be closed.

About Marielly de la Sol

I write for those who know that the most profound transformations happen after forty. My stories weave Dominican folklore with subtle supernatural threads, creating a world where culture, mystery, and second chances intersect.

Every line is shaped by herencia and a deep belief in the power of a well-timed mystery. Think of this space as a warm room where the magic of the everyday finally has the space to breathe. Here, the stories speak for themselves. Pasa adelante, estás en tu casa.
