Perseid Meteor Shower

It’s that time of year again! The annual Perseid meteor shower is happening now! The best viewing time is midnight to dawn. This amazing meteor shower runs through late August, with peak viewing on August 12-13, 2025.

There are several meteor showers throughout the year, but the Perseid meteor shower is my favorite. It’s one of the reasons I used is as a base for some of the events in Star Touched.

Look north toward the Perseus constellation (just below Cassiopeia)

Pull out a chair.

Slather on some bug spray.

And camp out under the night sky.

Enjoy the show.

But don’t worry, none of the meteors are big enough to cause a cataclysm.

Then make sure you pick up a copy of Star Touched.

STAR TOUCHED

Sometimes it’s hard to be who you are meant to be.

Especially when your powers can get you killed.

Eighteen-year-old Tatiana is running from her past and her star-touched powers eight years after a meteor devastates earth’s population.

Her power to heal may be overshadowed by more destructive abilities. Fleeing the persecution of those like her, Tatiana seeks refuge in a small town she once visited. But this civil haven, in a world where society has broken down, is beginning to crumble.

Only by harnessing the very forces that haunt her can Tatiana save her friends…and herself.
