So, I have decided to do something new and frightening, and something I am completely uncomfortable with. Starting March 20th, I will begin posting chapters of my WIP for The White Hind on Ream for all to read. It is terrifying because of the way I write, which is not linear and prone to much …
And they turned out beautifully! Here is the unboxing video The black and white illustrations are sharp, and the feel of the book is exactly as I had hoped. Once again, a huge thank you to all of my backers on Kickstarter. This project would not have come alive without you!
I can’t wait to share this with all of you, but The Seven Sisters’ Kickstarter ends soon! Click here.
Kickstarter – The Seven Sisters’ Fairytales If you have been following my blog for a while, you have probably read at least one of the posts in my Fairytale Series. I have called in my “fun” project, my palate cleanser in between working on other books for my Stolen Away and An Affinity for the …

Excerpt from The Broken Court, book 2 in the fantasy series Stolen Away. This scene is very much a nod to a book I read and loved as a young girl, “A Net To Catch The Wind” by Margaret Greaves. It was a library book, and I wanted to own a copy so much. Of …
The Broken Court is now available for preorder on Amazon and Barnes & Noble! To celebrate, I posted an excerpt below. Of course, if you can’t wait for it to be released on May 30th, or if you just like to be in the know before everyone else (and you like free books) you can …
