Book Quote Wednesday ~ #tight on 6/24/2020
It’s #bookqw and Daeryn’s enemies might be as ‘tight’ as friends. I’m celebrating the 5th anniversary of publishing The Unraveling, Volume 1 of The Luminated Threads. Yesterday’s post included several insider details of my writer’s journey in this story. Read it here. I also posted an excerpt from my heroine’s viewpoint, that of a proper […]
Happy 5th Anniversary to The Unraveling!
2015. So long ago. And not that long ago. The Unraveling was the first of my books that I chose to release. I began writing it in 2012, a flow of words that reached over 200K. Critique partners suggested I break it into shorter novels and form a ‘serialized novel.’ Here’s my original promo when […]
My books are also in paperback print
During this week of promotions and sales, the marketer-wanna-be in my writing life can’t help but point out that my books are available in print paperback. The covers are beautiful and the formating underwent professional attention to detail, if I do say so myself! Check it out: The Windborne series are perfect holiday gifts for […]
Mark your calendars!
I’ll be at Mad City Coffee this Saturday, August 31, 2019 from 7 to 9 pm, selling and signing my paperbacks with a host of other authors to celebrate science fiction author Catherine Asaro‘s book launch. I’ll have my YA fantasy and steampunk / historical fantasy novels, including the newest–Lost Whisperer of the Seas! Other […]

It’s #BookQW and this family history has been held ‘tight’! More from The Twisting, Volume Two of The Luminated Threads, Chapter 3: Miriam lifted the mug, and a smile etched itself across her tired face. “You’re a strong-willed woman. Just like your mother.” Annmar’s eyes widened. “Mother? You knew my mother?” Without realizing it, she […]
Book Quote Wednesday ~ #eye on 2/27/2019
It’s #bookqw and our heroine has her ‘eye’ on the mysterious villain. More from Chapter 1: Making a little huffing noise, Polly turned and peered at the framed engravings of Mr. Shearing’s machinery, all from the advertisement illustrations Annmar had rendered. Several were missing, the ones submitted to the New Works Competition. He’d embarrassed Annmar […]

It’s #bookqw and our heroine has discovered the land of her ‘heart’…though she doesn’t know it!

She could not afford to be dismissed for suspicion […]
Book Quote Wednesday ~ #secret on 2/6/2019
It’s #bookqw and our heroine has a ‘secret’ experiment. More from Chapter 19: She blew out a breath of disappointment. “This doesn’t tell me anything about how I did it.” They were looking at her oddly, so she admitted, “I’ve never done this before.” “Never?” they asked in unison. She didn’t blame them, but she […]
Book Quote Wednesday
It’s #bookqw and our hero is ‘deep’ into a hunt. More of the excerpt from The Unraveling, Volume One of The Luminated Threads: Wellspring Collective, Blighted Basin Daeryn Darkcoat’s paws carried his polecat form in a weasel’s rolling leaps along a dirt road. The setting moon, just past half, lit Wellspring Collective’s rows of plants in […]
