MEET THE OWNERS

At Flicker and Fated Co., we believe stories have the power to light the way and bring people together. Founded by two women with a passion for romance, representation, and community, our queer-owned business celebrates the beauty of diverse voices and swoon-worthy love stories.

From hand-poured candles to thoughtfully curated boxes and merch, everything we create is inspired by the stories and characters that move us. Our mission is to honor underrepresented voices, uplift authors and creators, and build a space where readers feel seen, celebrated, and connected.

Here, every spark matters—and every story deserves to shine.

KEE

Hi, I’m Kee! I’m 27, a mama, and, queer. LOVER of MM Romance and the color PINK.

If I were a candle scent, I’d be something warm and cozy—like brown sugar and toasted pecans.

The seed for Flicker and Fated actually came from a silly but powerful thought: I realized I rarely saw brown areolas represented in NSFW art, and I thought, “I need to see them.” That little spark grew into something bigger—a business rooted in love, representation, and the stories that make us feel seen.

I’m endlessly grateful to Tori, whose dedication and optimism balance out my “Negative Nancy” energy with her “Positive Patty” spirit. They say Libras are supposed to be balanced, but really, we balance each other.

Thank you for stopping by, and thank you for your support—it truly means the world.

TORI

Hi I’m Tori, I’m 24 from Brooklyn NY. I’m currently in school studying Political Science and I have a four pound yorkie and a chunky cat named Jeff.

I’m a big reader- main genres are romance (specifically queer POC books) and fantasy! To relax and meet other readers I created a bookstagram which I’ve had for 2+ years.

I’ve gotten so many great book recommendations, met so many good friends and now have an awesome co-owner to our passion project - Flicker and Fated.
