A Heart So Dark is coming out in less than a week! Excited? Pre-order your copy today . And while you wait, read the first 3 chapters now! Chapter 1: Kieren Lia? Lia? Only a cold, empty silence met Kieren’s thoughts. He kept his eyes on the four departing figures. What had just happened? Crouched behind the bushes, Kieren couldn’t hear what they were saying, and Lia’s thoughts were too soft and hazy. But he could certainly feel her fear. She was suffocating in it as Azriel led her away. What are you doing? Get her back! The dragon within him roared. She shouldn’t meet Fearson alone. But Lia wasn’t alone; she had Azriel. The knot in Kieren’s stomach tightened. Because of the Verdurans’ deep hatred of dragon shifters, Azriel and Lia were supposed to find Fearson and discover the World Eater’s whereabouts while Kieren and Griffith stayed with Azriel’s friend and waited for them to send word. Kieren had agreed to this plan before seeing Azriel kiss Lia.   The image of that still burned...

It's confession time. This week I did a tiny bit of editing... and a LOT of map-making. Check out this map I drew of Solair. Fantasy Map of Solair Pretty neat, huh? I really enjoyed the process of creating this map. It helped to make the places in my Light and Fire novels  come to life. And can you believe this was my first time drawing a digital map? Yup! There's this super-nifty webpage called Inkarnate  that allows you to design and create maps for free. It's super intuitive and easy-to-use. You can also pay a small fee for fancier designs and more features. I'm debating about trying out the paid option to create beautiful parchment-style maps for the boxset. Well, alrighty then. I just wanted to pop in and share this lovely image. Now, back to writing!

Hi friends! How are you doing? Our family of four is slowly getting used to the new normal of online life and social distancing. My two boys have really great attitudes. They see this as a fun new adventure. My husband also seems resigned to it all, although he really dislikes Zoom. Unfortunately, it takes me much longer to adapt to new changes. (I know, it's been over 4 weeks... so it's not even new anymore... oy!) Honestly, it's hard for me to feel hopeful when there is so much suffering and the end isn't quite in sight. So today I thought I'd pop on the blog and share about something that makes me happy. And that's the cover of Haven of Smoke and Shadows , the 3rd book in my Light and Fire Series . Here she is- isn't she gorgeous? Once again, all props go to KD Ritchie from Story Wrappers for designing such a beautiful cover. Here's a blurb for the book: Sometimes first loves were never meant to be... Lia reveals her true...
