"I am sad - and furious - that so many women have internalized misogyny to such an extent that they deem this book an attack on men. There are brave, progressive, feminist men in this book - men as heroes and accomplices to women wronged. And even if "

question:
Hi, L.B.! Thank you for reading DAMSEL. Some ideas are the result of complicated plotting and concentration; some hit like a flash, all at once. DAMSEL was like that. I started with the ending, and worked from there. This is the only book I've ever w

“The thing about life, I thought as Star drank his mother's warm milk, is that you have to choose it. And then you have to keep choosing it, again and again.
You can choose it by staring out at the vast horizon. By focusing on the smallest stone. By feeling humbled by the greatness of others. By claiming victory in a challenge. By judging. By loving. Through balance. Through knowledge. In wisdom. In grace.”
― Splendor

Hi, Dee! I am glad you enjoyed SACRED! That makes me so happy. Please feel free to tell the world! :) Yes, the sequel SPLENDOR is full of horsey stuff... but different. And actually, horses make a cameo appearance in BURNING, too! All My Best,
