Tidbit Tuesday: Miri Makes Up Her Mind

Quill pen and ink well resting on an old book in a library conce

Sky Woman will always hold a special place in my heart as my first “official” novel. It was born from a rather steamy daydream I kept having in the car on my commute home from work. It was so pervasive, and ate so much of my brain, I finally decide just to write the damn thing out. I let is sit for a long time, then stumbled into the world of fanfiction, where I discovered to my surprise that I could write 50,000+ words in thirty days – again and again and again. So I put Sky Woman up on Smashwords and Amazon, and I hoped for the best.

It turns out my readers loved Miri and her family as much as I did, so I went on to write the Seeder Saga, and that, as they say, is history.

In this scene, Miri makes a decision – after being transplanted on a planet far from home and meeting Lunan, first son of the first son of the House of Falenua. And this decision has been a long time coming… Continue reading

Excerpt Tuesday: Sky Woman Meets Determined Suitor

The plot device was every woman’s fantasy come true, and I spent many a squirmy afternoon commute home from the day job fantasizing up scenes and dialogue.

In this scene, our girl Miri and the eldest son of Falenua house, Lunan, find themselves trapped in a mountain cabin during a rainstorm. Night is falling, and so are Miri’s inhibitions… Continue reading

Book Excerpt Tuesday: Seasinger

Open book with space for saying, quotes, excerpts. Chat symbol. Outline.

In my latest novel, Seasinger, we meet Kai Vand, a mysterious millionaire who has an interesting secret: he’s a Twixter, part elemental, part human, and he can command the forces of water. In addition to that Kai is a singer, which gives him an extra gift – one that leads him right to the closed-off and suspicious Shira Wen, an anthropology professor who’s got a reason to be wary of someone like him.

In this scene, Shira has overheard some information that confirms one of her fears where Kai is concerned. Continue reading

The wait is officially over!! SEASINGER is now available for Kindle!

Kai and Shira’s journey was so very different than I’d first imagined it – and so much fun to write! He’s such a force of nature and she’s so cool and collected – until he makes her feel again. The stakes go up even further in this book, and things have been set in motion that could have catastrophic results.

If you loved Windsinger, we’ll also catch up with Brad and Cecy again, and get to know our Earthsinger, Manni and our trucker friend Matt just a little better, too. All in all it’s a great ride and I’d love to have you along.

Get your Kindle copy of SEASINGER here (print will be available on Tuesday) and get caught up in the wave!
