"Okay, that's a little weird." "No, mate. That's adorable."

 I am doing two books today, written by two sisters.
 The Shadow Things by Jennifer Freitag The Soldier's Cross by Abigail J. Hartman.
 Jennifer's blog is HERE! and Abigail's is HERE!
 I didn't know of Abigail's book until a few weeks ago. I had been following Jennifer's blog for awhile and loved her posts - which always made me wish she had a book out. I was delighted to discover she did, and that her sister had one as well. If their book writing style is anything like their post style, I have a feeling the books will prove to be wonderful to read.



 Summery for The Shadow Things: The Legions have left the province of Britain and the Western Roman Empire has dissolved into chaos. With the world plunged into darkness, paganism and superstition are as rampant as ever. In the Down country of southern Britain, young Indi has grown up knowing nothing more than his gods of horses and thunder; so when a man from across the sea comes preaching a single God slain on a cross, Indi must choose between his gods or the one God and face the consequences of his decision.


Summery for The Soldier's Cross:
 A.D. 1415 Fiona's world is a carefully built castle in the air, made up of the fancies, wishes, and memories of her childhood. It begins to crumble as she watches her brother march away to join in the English invasion of France. It falls to pieces when he is brought home dead. Robbed of the one dearest to her and alone in the world, Fiona turns to her brother's silver cross in search of the peace he said it would bring. But when she finds it missing, she swears she will have it and sets out on a journey across the Channel and war-ravaged France to regain it and find the peace it carries.

 Exciting, no? Both books have gotten very high reviews as well.

 So, right now, I am trying to finish every last minute thing before publishing and trying to keep awake. And not think too much about the 14th. It will be a fun day but very tiring. I won't get home until late on Thursday as I will be going to the midnight showing of The Hobbit. On Friday I shan't have time to sleep in because I have marketing to do that day, then a copy of my book to mail - if they get here on time. Then I have to go before lunch to get my hair done for a play I am in, then I have to go and help with the last minute set up of the play, then do the play, then clean up - which will get me home my midnight at the earliest. 
 If anyone wakes me up before noon on Saturday I shan't be responsible for my actions. *Smirk*
 And right now I am leaving, to sleep.
