My new book has just been published!
As a new author, I’m both thrilled and nervous in these early days as my baby- – oops! I mean my book! – slowly gains reviews. Half of the time I’m polishing the second volume in the series, and the other half I’m addictively checking on the status of Threshold of Destiny or writing more requests for those reader reviews that are so helpful and even essential to launching any book these days.
What it REALLY feels like to have finished a book
The following quotation says it better than I ever could….
Here’s part of the book’s description on Amazon:
Shrouded by the mists of an Unseen World, dark spirits lie in wait for the unwary traveler, while in the Earthly Realm, only heartache seems to be in the cards.
Clever, enigmatic, and dangerous: he’s a 200-year-old English vampire with a penchant for old poetry. Sensitive and psychic: she’s working for an undercover organization. And she knows his secret.
Old myths and legends must be given their due – even in the modern age of high-tech surveillance.

Diversity in Fiction: We’re badly in need of more good Clean Reads
These days, it seems like everything that was once shocking now routinely appears in the pages of fiction but – no surprise! – it’s not that shocking anymore. The old forbidden fruit seems worn-out and obviously commercial, now.
Needed: good stories. Diversity in characters. New and engaging viewpoints.
It can be hard to write romances that are different when so many other novels, novelettes and novellas follow the current fads or take advantage of lucrative trends.
But – in my opinion – since writing a novel takes so much time and personal effort – why use a cookie-cutter? Better to craft something by hand and make it unique. Bonus: more choices for readers.
Whether you’re actively seeking clean romance, or you’re browsing through a range of heat levels in search of a good read, you’ll find plenty of romance in this series.
