Like Hatchet, but with vampires, witches, and dragons... oh my! Indigo ‘Indi’ Adams and her three friends venture into the wilderness for a few days of hiking fun. Indi hopes to capture a photo of the elusive phoenix, and she’s determined nothing will stop her. Not the fact that she’s never been hiking before. Not her deathly allergy to the sun. Not even the possibility that she and her friends aren’t the only ones tracking the phoenix... But there are others who want their own shot at the bird, and they’re willing to kill for it. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This is mostly a fun adventure story with some light horror and action scenes, and probably at least one literal cliffhanger. For those who have read my other work, Spliced, this work here features some of the same characters but is an unrelated plot and is set earlier than the events in Spliced. A Witch's Guide to Hiking is now complete!
