It’s #bookqw and our hero won’t tolerate the ‘rage’ of his teammates. More from Chapter 3: By the time Daeryn caught up to them, the wolves were rolling in an outright fight, the beta Maraquin for once taking on her headstrong alpha. Leaves, dirt, fur and snarls flew in confusion. He couldn’t tell which was […]
It’s #BookQW and ‘bliss’ is not our heroine’s feels. More from Chapter 8: Instead of dirt, a patch of water shimmered in the sunlight, fed by a silvery stream diverted from the nearby creek. “Your pond seems to be there,” Beri said with a sigh. “H-how?” But now Beri’s muddy clothing made sense. Did this […]
It’s #BookQW and we all brighten the coming solstice with ‘color’. More from Chapter 2: “You feel put out?” Beri huffed. “I had to spend eight hours of the one snow day inside a school building and two more inside a bus. I had only the walk home and a few snowballs pitched at Fern.” […]
It’s #BookQW and the ‘dark’ is celebrated at the Solstice. More from Chapter 3: With the house darkened, the view through the windows showed the spruce and pines surrounding the cabin. Everybody clustered into a semicircle facing the hearth. “Heather?” Dad asked quietly. “Who shall do the lighting this year?” “I’d like Mum to have […]
It’s #BookQW and ‘pound’ is too appropriate for today + a trigger for our heroine. More from Chapter 4: Squinting against the wind, Fern peered at the first guy, who was still panting, and then Raven, who scowled back at her. He was anything but an angel. She had to be reasonable, to sound reasonable. […]
It’s #BookQW and Fern is drowning in ‘details’ to help Cor’s dream! More from Chapter 10: A sound like the wind blowing through power lines surrounded them. But Giuthas had no power lines. Seconds later, a small figure shimmered into view. “This is the closest I can come to meeting your request, Mistress Fern. During […]
It’s #BookQW and magic weighs ‘heavy’ on our heroine. More from Chapter 3: Fern flinched, expecting him to smack into her, to pin her to the ground. But she continued to slip while he—is this really happening?—hung suspended, half over her, wings sweeping up and down, feathers whacking her, the bush, the ground, sending sticks […]
It’s #bookqw and our heroine tags the hero as ‘sweet’ at the cute meet. More from Chapter 8: Daeryn, which Mistress Gere pronounced day-rin, seemed to take it in stride. He nodded, a single dip of his chin. “Yes’m.” He didn’t pause between that acknowledgment and extending his hand. His gaze searched hers curiously, and […]
It’s #bookqw and will our hero’s ‘gut’ lead him on the right path? More from Chapter 5 of The Unraveling: Daeryn wiped a hand over his face. “Sorry to take it out on you. My worry shouldn’t be Jac, but these new pests appearing in the Basin. I couldn’t say no to Miz Gere. She’s […]
It’s #BookQW and Cor loves to ‘grow’ trees! More from Chapter 1: Master Harold preferred the botanical rather than the magical side of plant growth, ironically, since the Gruen Foundation focused on increasing tree energy. Instead, Cor dug a handful of beechnuts from his pocket that he’d scavenged from the leaf litter. “More to start […]
