Buy Michigan Now Festival Author Tent
I’ve participated in the Buy Michigan Now Festival in the past, as part of the Scribe Publishing Tent. This year, I was invited to join the BMNF Author Tent! I was extremely pleased to get the invitation as I’ve always had a blast meeting people at the festival. I hope to also get to know some new fellow authors this time around.
The festival is in Northville, August 3rd-5th. I’ll be there on Sunday, August 5th, from 1:30 to 5:00, signing and selling my books.
Even if you can’t make it when I’m there, I highly recommend checking out this festival. The local merchants and products are worth trip!

Heart of Ice Series Cover
I’m proud to reveal the new and improved cover for Heart of Ice!
The biggest change, of course, is that Heart of Ice now displays its status as the Legacy in Legend Prequel. The smaller changes lightened the artwork for legibility – especially for smaller screens.
It’s pretty exciting to see the series come to fruition!

A Veiled Existence Song
It’s been my tradition that after I release a new book, I choose a holiday tune to create a song that more or less summarizes the story. This year the book is Veiled Existence and the tune I borrowed is Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow! I sent it out to my reader group over the holidays and just realized I never posted it on my website, so here it is:
It’s a Curse! It’s a Curse! It’s a Curse!
The pretty girl I met is phony,
And a witch now claims she owns me,
My plight couldn’t be much worse.
It’s a curse, it’s a curse, it’s a curse!
Who knows what nasty web she’s weaving,
But the fumes that I am breathing,
Will probably kill me first.
It’s a curse, it’s a curse, it’s a curse!
When I finally make my escape,
I’m overcome with a sense of alarm.
That if I really leave this place,
My loved ones will surely be harmed.
Seems the price I pay for my rescue,
Is that I’m compelled to kill you,
This spell needs to be reversed.
It’s a curse, its’ a curse, it’s a curse!
