With help from my husband, who's Japanese, I look up the meanings of various kanji (Chinese characters) and try to match a sound and meaning that matches the character. For example, the cruel race of Hawk-people are called Moukin, which means Crazy Bird or Bird of Prey.(less)

I loved reading the Twilight series, but thought it could use some more spice. 50 Shades of Gray was promoted as "Twilight for Grownups" so I thought, "Cool!" It was sexy, yes, but I was disappointed there was no otherworldly intrigue. When I dreamed about my characters and storyline, and they wouldn't go away, I had to write it.

My first draft was very sexy. Erotic. But while it was very liberating for a middle-aged mom to write something like that, I wasn't comfortable sharing it with others. After putting it away for several years (a story for another time) I came back and rewrote it. My first Beta readers loved it, but told me it read PG-13! I added back some of the intimacy, went even deeper into character emotions, and now it's something that I hope readers will find very special.(less)

Hello Goodreads folks!

For the ten days leading up to my February 1 release of TAERYN: THE AWAKENING, I will be sharing info about the characters, some trivia, and even a few surprises.
