Hi!!

I'm the author of "The Dark Whisperings Saga" which includes:

1. DARK WHISPERINGS
2. DARK PATH
3. DARK WAR

A few things about me: I would probably die without mustard, I eat enough bread to be labeled the 'Pillsbury dough boy' (but I'm a girl), my favorite animal is the desert rain frog and I don't think I need to explain myself on that one, sunsets are one of the best things in the world and I WILL be taking pictures, and I've wanted to fall into a fairytale for a long time, but let's be real, nobody wants to suffer the character development the mc goes through in fantasy tales *nervous giggle*

If you like stories with adventure, action, found family, witty banter, and a *dash* of romance . . . I'm your huckleberry :)

2.5. Just wasn't engrossing to me. I didn't like it until the very end where there was a good plot twist. Also, they had to throw in a same sex relationship which felt like a very forced thing to do especially when it kept being brought up in no way t ...more

“Danger causes one of two reactions: fear or courage. But I suppose danger doesn't really do anything besides reveal the truth buried beneath one's skin. Coward or warrior. Decisions, decisions . . .”
