Ink & Ember was born from a spark.
The Story Behind the Spark
I’m Christy, the founder of Ink & Ember.
For most of my career, I built brands for other people, big ones, polished ones, the kind with teams, timelines, and strategy decks. I love my craft. But somewhere between the deadlines and deliverables. I got caught spending time reading to learn and improve my career and along the way I lost the joy of getting lost in a story.
Falling Back Into the Pages
Reading found me again when I needed it most.
And not just any reading, romantasy.
The kind of stories that keep you up far too late, heart racing, imagination fully lit. Books that blur the line between the real world and the one you wish you could step into. Reading stopped being background noise and became a ritual again.
That spark stayed with me.
The Birth of Ink & Ember
Ink & Ember grew out of a simple idea:
What if reading didn’t stop at the last page?
I wanted to create more than a bookish brand. I wanted to build a world with an environment that deepens the experience of reading itself. Candles that set the mood. Merch that feels like an inside joke with your favorite fictional characters. Pieces that turn a quiet corner into a portal.
The Ember You Carry
This brand is my love letter to atmosphere, imagination, and the magic of carving out time for yourself in a world that rarely slows down.
Ink & Ember exists to make reading feel immersive again. To turn moments into rituals and stories into something you can almost touch.
Welcome to Ink & Ember.
Stay a while.
