It's almost surreal to think this story is finally out in the world, after so many years working on it.
It may be my newest release, but some of these characters have been with me longer than any of those from previous books. Here's to Kye, Sorin, the Zylars, and Zinn

The sequel to Starlight Jewel is an engrossing, gritty adventure that nods to macabre fairytales. You can find the full review on Willow Wraith Press.

Happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating in the US!
Here's a photo of my neighborhood's flock from about 2 weeks ago (not sure if flock is the right word for a group of turkeys, but they're birds, so I'm running with it 😅)
