Welcome to my Creative Outpost

Hi, I’m Shannon O’Neil—a contemporary fiction author, western-influenced artist, and professional marketer. This is where all the pieces of my creative life come together—books that make you laugh, artwork inspired by the open range, and a little marketing magic sprinkled in for good measure.

Most recently, I’ve ventured into the art world with my first-ever collection of limited-edition watercolor prints, Boots, Bones & Blushes. It’s a mix of flirty cowboys, sassy skeletons, and western romance with a playful edge—and just the beginning of what’s to come.

Take a look around, explore my books, artwork, and creative projects, and if something speaks to you, I’d love for you to bring a piece of it home. Thanks for stopping by!

Shop: Limited Edition Watercolor Prints

Now available! My latest watercolor collection, Tides & Trails, is a love letter to living between worlds. From bison on the break to sheriffs in the shallows, each piece tips its hat to the magic of contradictions — the way salt air can live in a mountain heart, and prairie winds can dream of the sea. It’s a reminder that what we carry inside isn’t always what we wear on the outside… and that’s where the best stories begin.

  • Hand-numbered, printed, matted & packaged by me
  • Printed on archival textured watercolor paper
  • Each print includes a white beveled mat & sturdy backing board
  • Limited to 20 prints per design—once they’re gone, they’re gone!

Books: Fiction with Heart, Humor & a Dash of Chaos

I write contemporary fiction full of wit, warmth, and a little bit of trouble. If you love stories with quirky characters, small-town charm, and just the right amount of mayhem, you’re in the right place.

  • Killer Shine – A cozy Florida mystery with moonshine, murder, and a small-town reporter in way over her head.
  • Ancient City Christmas – A hilarious holiday rom-com set in St. Augustine, packed with festive disasters, second chances, and just enough Christmas magic.

Both books are available on Amazon & Bookshop.org—grab a copy today!
