About this author

I am both a traditionally published and an indie author. My YA books include a fantasy romance, Uncommon Magic and a vampire romance, Blood Sisters which are available in e-formats.

My traditionally published books, The Dragons of Hazlett and An Anthem for the Battle Lands are available through Mundania Press, LLC.


You can't judge a book by its coverRecently, I read an article by an author who had a unique way of dealing with low ratings on her books: she immediately contacted each of her disatisfied readers and tried to convince them that her book deserved a better rating.

Topics Mentioning This Author

Art Spiegelman
“I'm not talking about YOUR book now, but look at how many books have already been written about the Holocaust. What's the point? People haven't changed... Maybe they need a newer, bigger Holocaust.”
Art Spiegelman

Dorothy Parker
“The cure for boredom is curiosity.
There is no cure for curiosity.”
Dorothy Parker

Samuel Beckett
“We are all born mad. Some remain so.”
Samuel Beckett

Henry James
“Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind.”
Henry James

C.S. Lewis
“I live in the Managerial Age, in a world of "Admin." The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid "dens of crime" that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voices. Hence, naturally enough, my symbol for Hell is something like the bureaucracy of a police state or the office of a thoroughly nasty business concern.”
C.S. Lewis
