Defense Against The Dark Arts

As Halloween nears, the veil between worlds thins. Paranormal activity increases.For many, this is a wonderful time to honor their Beloved Dead.For others, the time from now until the first week in November can be fraught with unwanted attention from the not so beloved dead.
Hence, the need for a Defense Against the Dark Arts workshop.

"Defense Against the Dark Arts" is not a writing class, but authors who write paranormal stories will find it highly informative.

But as long as her best friend’s disappearance remains unsolved, she can’t shake the obsessive-compulsive disorder that once landed her in a mental ward. Thor Grael, a teen dragon shaman, spikes Ainslie’s pulse and calms her OCD.  But will she lose him once he discovers her past? Or will Thor’s deadly secret be their undoing?

Spell Struck Book Anniversary

Today is the one year book anniversary of the Star Tribe Publishing edition of Spell Struck, Book 2, The Teen Wytche Saga.
“A fantastic YA paranormal read, reminiscent of the film “Practical Magic”!~InD’tale Magazine
When Goth outcast Salem Miller casts a love spell on Halloween night, she asks for a boy who is handsome, magical, and artistic. She doesn’t count on Fate sending Aidan Cooper.
As a child, Aidan thought he was being rescued, not abducted. Now fifteen and homeless, he realizes he was taken because of his Gypsy blood. His kidnappers believe he’ll lead them to the Grey Grimoire, a priceless spell book. Madness. The book doesn’t even exist.
Or does it?
Salem is charged with fixing a half-destroyed spell book, her last hope for saving her sister. Amy attempted suicide and the meds aren’t helping. Maybe a powerful Get Well Spell will cure her.
Aidan’s kidnappers will kill to attain the Grey Grimoire. But if he destroys it, Salem will hate him. Either way, he loses. Again.
