  <about><![CDATA[I'm a mom. I have a dog named Wyatt. I started writing way back in high school, but it took me a lifetime to write what you'll read about next: In a Goodreads poll, <strong>82% of early readers voted <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/search/search?q= Secret Speakers and the Search for Selador's Gate" title=" Secret Speakers and the Search for Selador's Gate"> Secret Speakers and the Search for Selador's Gate</a> equal to or better than <em>Twilight</em> in terms of likeability. 68% voted it equal to or better than <em>Harry Potter</em></strong>. I was surprised, because it doesn't have the same dark quality those books have. <em>Secret Speakers</em> is a story of the ultimate sacrifice, unconditional love, and the sublime transformation of a soul in a dark, dark world.  Thanks to all my heroic readers who voted during the Read &amp; Rate It event. And thanks to all 700 who originally signed up. Oh, and it's available April 2010 from bookstores, and of course on Amazon. Wink, wink.]]></about>

    <![CDATA[Thirteen year-old Fair O'Nelli is set free after spending nine years of her life in a cellar, studying the Scrolls of Truth by mysterious finger light, educated by her mother in the dark of night to avoid being discovered. Her father and brother are missing, or dead. While on the grassy path to find Selador’s Gate in the company of three guardians, little does Fair know she’s about to end up in the middle of a dark secret the parents of Cloven Grave know nothing about, where the key to survival is learning to see things as they are. <br/><br/>Heart-wrenchingly suspenseful and achingly beautiful, <em>Secret Speakers and the Search for Selador’s Gate</em> is an astounding tale of triumph that pulls you around dark corners, drags you down to the depths of the earth and lifts you up to the soaring realms of Rall Kindaria, leaving your spirit breathless with the possibility that we are never, ever alone. Ever.<br/><br/>The audiobook adaptation is brought to life with the award-winning talents of British-born narrator, Simon Vance. He was awarded “Audiofile Magazine Golden Voice status,” June 2009, and Booklist’s 2008 “Voice of Choice Award.”]]>
