Flicker and Mist is Finally Here!!

Flicker and Mist cover image. Girl being enveloped in mist.







Today I'm so happy to let my very first teen fantasy, Flicker and Mist, fly free in the world! I've wanted to write about invisibility for many years, and I scratched out idea after idea until finally, Myra and her world leapt into my head as if they had always been there. Whenever anyone asks what superpower I would have, invisi

Quotes by Mary G. Thompson  (?)

“Evan had heard it all before. A paradise underground, made for things like the worm in front of him. A place where Evan would forget he had ever been human, forget he had a mother, maybe even forget his own name. This thing did not remember its own, Evan was sure of it.”
Mary G. Thompson, Wuftoom: A Novel

“I'd always known that when you went through one of these doors, you went to another planet, and that that other planet might be so far away, you couldn't fly there in spaceship in a million years. Somehow, the whole thing had never seemed strange before today.”
Mary G. Thompson, Escape from the Pipe Men!

“A head began emerging out of the darkness. It had two large antennae growing out of its forehead, with nothing recognizable as eyes. A mouth in the middle of its face opened in what I hoped was a smile. At least there weren't any sharp teeth.”
Mary G. Thompson, Escape from the Pipe Men!

Mary G. Thompson, Wuftoom: A Novel

“The other dark places,' Evan whispered. Visions of tunnels of earth and stone, caves and streams entered his head. It was far beneath them. He knew it was real and it was down there, waiting.”
