When not at the beach, writing or reading, I can be found wandering the stacks in a library, perusing antique stores and thrift shops, playing tabletop role playing games, or spending time with my family. A family that consists of six children, eight grandchildren and two spoiled dogs.

Anyway our story will take you, dear reader, on a journey through strange new lands where you will meet fantastic creatures and witty characters. Think homage to Terry Brooks' The Sword of Shannara Trilogy and a wink nod to G.O.T.

Our books will be the flashy cousin at the fantasy family reunion. You know the one that all the younger cousins want to hang out with and be like. The one who the little older Aunties want to dance with....That is what Necromancer's Song will be. (less)

Book Fact: Don’t Believe Everything You Hear

Many people believe that Charles Dickens was paid by the word, which is why many of his books are so lengthy. The statement is a myth; Charles Dickens was not paid by the word, but rather by installment as his novels were serialized

His writing was often lengthy because serial publication required him to provide enough content to keep readers engaged until the next installment, and he was paid a se

He reached up and brushed his knuckles over the wetness on my cheek. The smallest smile touched his bloodstained lips. "Someone to mourn me." He dropped his hand, as if the weight were too much. "No grave," he gasped, his hand tightening on mine, "for them to desecrate.”
Leigh Bardugo, Ruin and Rising
