Six Sentence Sunday

Visit all the participants here:

Milayna

I just finished my second YA novel tentatively titled "Milayna."  It is my first paranormal romance, so I'm really excited about it.  You can read an excerpt of the first chapter here.  You can also see my idea of cover art for the book…if it finds a home and is published (fingers crossed.) Tomorrow I'll do a read through and enter the editing cave. Sigh. What is everyone else working on?

What's everyone reading?

What book are you reading?  I need a good YA book to read, preferably a paranormal or dystopian.  Have any suggestions?

Six Sentence Sunday

This week I'm sticking with my WIP Little Flowers.  Just a recap:  The woman is returning home and the Monster is waiting for her. The monster watched her enter the bathroom and walk over to start the shower. It saw the moment she knew something was wrong and a tingling sensation crawled up its back, [...]
