Conceptually, Autumn Country is that part of our own - real - world where wondrous and inexplicable things occasionally happen. Maybe.

Technically, Autumn Country is a fictional frame world; a collective term used to describe the setting for a series of stories and images that explore our world's myths and folklore in a (hopefully) new and interesting way.

This site is always expanding with new stories and images and other things; so we hope you will come back often. And remember, this site is part of the story. As some of the characters who inhabit Autumn Country have found, many of these stories are hidden and don't necessarily want to be found - but, as with most things, the finding is a large part of the fun. For those who just don't have time to search for the story paths there is a site map. We hope you won't use the site map.
