I'm so glad you liked Dark Twin and Blood Seed! Time Candle came out in the middle of January 2018, and is listed right here on Goodreads.

I would go to the Seani, the small hillside community in the beleaguered Land of Shunder, That is the setting of my books Dark Twin and Time Candle. The place is a refuge for people who have been hurt by, and are bravely resisting, the encroaching power of the despotic Spider-king. I'd try to help Mena with the kids in her classroom or assist Celume in her mission to restore hope to those who've lost it.

As an author with a third book now published, I feel I must do what I can to let readers know that--among the hundreds of thousands other books out there--Night Cruiser, Blood Seed, and Dark Twin exist! They all have a lot to say and, hopefully, more people would enjoy the books if they knew about them. That, of course, means marketing, which every author I know finds challenging. We're writers, not salespeople. But we're also kind of like parents who want to give their offspring as good a start as we can. So in between my attempts at marketing, I do what I love: continue to work on my four-novel series Coin of Rulve. I also critique manuscripts with the two crit groups I belong to, take part in our parish book club, review books when I can, attend book signings, and try to keep up with my website, newsletter, and social media. My next novel in the Coin series is Time Candle. The cover is ready, the book has been critiqued and copy-edited, and the proofreading edits are being incorporated.

The best thing about writing is how that act can take me completely outside of my small self. It makes me focus on what the characters are feeling and thinking, on how to shape and express the idea that's out there and wants to be shared with others, on the achingly beautiful myth every one of us is part of. It's funny how, when we forget ourselves, the world gets a lot bigger, deeper and more exciting.
