Radiance - 21, 22 and epilogue now posted

My sincerest apologies. I thought I'd posted earlier here that Radiance - chapter 21 was posted. Christmas preparations have left me frazzled, so I'm overlooking stuff. I'm here to rectify that.

RADIANCE's bed hair (rough draft) version is now complete. All chapters and the epilogue are posted. I will leave this version up on my blog until 01/06/15, and then it comes down while my editors and I get down to the brass tacks of revision and correction. We're estimating a formal publishing release in mid January. I'll remember to update here then.

Wishing you all a Happy Holiday!

ALL THE STARS LOOK DOWN

A quick note to let folks know that the Christmas story project I worked on with the author Elizabeth Hunter - ALL THE STARS LOOK DOWN - is now live at Amazon and Smashwords. If you're looking for a little seasonal-themed reading with a splash of paranormal and fantasy (academic vampires and exiled elves), then these two stories in the collect might be just thing. :)

Elizabeth revisits her Elemental Mysteries world in LOST LETTERS AND CHRISTMAS LIGHTS.

My story, SUNDAY'S CHILD, is a brand new, stand-alone storyline.

Happy holidays and happy reading!

Status update on RADIANCE

For those following RADIANCE, I had to move it to the backburner for several weeks due to obligations for the day job that required a lot of work hours and overtime, as well as a story for a joint Christmas project I'm on with author Elizabeth Hunter.

Now that both projects are complete, I can refocus on Radiance and will start back on it December 1st. I hope to have a new chapter up by December 8th.

Thanks for reading and your patience.

Best,

Grace

LOVE IS...charity antho - (THE LIGHTNING GOD'S WIFE)

I, along with 39 other authors, participated in a charity anthology called Love Is... It's a collection of short stories spanning multiple romance subgenres (contemporary, historical, pnr/fantasy/scifi, etc.) and heat levels.

All proceeds from the sale of the book (not counting what the tax man takes for himself) will be donated to the literacy charity Reach Out and Read.

My contribution to the anthology is a short story that takes place in the world of Master of Crows and is titled THE LIGHTNING GOD'S WIFE.

Love is…
hope and sacrifice. While watching an approaching thunderstorm, the slave woman Martise tells her lover—a renegade sorcerer known as the Master of Crows—the story of a human woman who became wife to the lightning god and brought rain to a dying world.



The anthology is priced at .99 cents and may be purchased from the following vendors:

iBooks: https://itunes.apple...4496?ls=1&...

Kobo: http://store.koboboo...ebook/love-is-8

Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MDL8G4Q

Nook: http://www.barnesand...n=2940149647552

Best,

Grace
