Hope you had a great week!! I am so happy it is Friday! I am working away on Cataclysm and plan on spending the rest
of the night finishing some scenes that have been really fun to write. It is hard for me to believe that I am
in the middle of my third book in the trilogy – that the trilogy is getting
close to wrapping up! I have grown
so fond of Athen & Ana and Cyril & Arie that it is actually a little
sad. I love how these characters
have grown and the adventures that they find themselves in! I don't want it to end!!
The love between Athen and Ana hits home especially so, and
I love getting feedback from you guys about your thoughts on the two! There is so much that happened in
Legions, as many of you know, that created a perfect storm for Cataclysm that
the writing process has been thrilling.
The rollercoaster of writing Cataclysm has been so fun, and I can't wait
to share some with you in the months to come!
That being said, for those of you who haven't read Legions
yet, I wanted to provide a little snippet below. Now, because I am so new to this whole blogging thing, I
would love to know if this is something that you guys are into! I sooo don't want to be boring you to
death when I post topics so please let me know if this is something you'd like
to see more of or not! I'd love to
hear your feedback because I am, in all honestly, still finding my way in the
blogging universe so any ideas or suggestions you have as to what works for a
post or what doesn't - I'd love to hear.
I think it would be great to someday have a nice dialogue going.
Thanks so much! Happy Reading...
Excerpt from The Watchers Trilogy: Legions (Book 2 of The
Watchers Trilogy)
"Do you know who she might
be? Is she a major player?" Watching Cyril and Arie look at each
other as they both began to fidget told me everything I needed to know.
"Her name is Lilith. She's truly the epitome of evil." Arie took a deep breath in. "Her type's been around longer than any
of us. She's part of the
Lamiai. They have the ability to
seduce men by luring them with their beauty. She knows what she's got, and she knows how to use it, both
with mankind and in the underworld.
As you saw, she can encompass beauty in a blink of an eye. Her true form, though, leaves her with
a serpent tail and fiery red hair.
Unfortunately, when she's in one of her other forms, no one can see it
including us."
"I could feel it. That's gotta count for something. Obviously Athen can feel it too,
judging by his recent reading selection.
So, what's her goal?" I
inquired. It seemed odd that all
she would care about is seducing mankind and the underworld.
"Her goal is to reek havoc –
create distractions. Throw her
into the mix of any situation, and you've just added an unpleasant
element. But you don't need to be
told that. You've seen it
firsthand."
That last shot was like a nail
gun aimed directly at my soul.
"It seems so peculiar that
someone with her clout would be involved in something to do with us."
"Well, our lineage is such that..."
Arie stopped herself. Her green
eyes looking as if they lost some of the usual glow I was used to seeing.
"What? It takes one to know one? Or are we so super powerful it takes someone like her? Come on. I can't take much more of this. Why don't you just tell me everything all at once." I was full of contention and spite, my
eyes wouldn't stop darting around the room, I was about to explode. I was tired of knowing half-truths. It seemed the last three months had been
full of almosts and not quites, and I was tired of it. I needed to know what I was facing. What we were facing.
