“Essei-khai.”  That means ‘spirit-river” in one of the two native tongues of the people of Evohe, the world on which a great deal of my novel Annah and its two sequels take place.  Essei-khai is the place between lives, where all life originates–and where all dreams have birth.  I’m intending this new blog to be a place to talk about my writing–Annah and the Children of Evohe series of which it is a part, as well as other projects, but also about the imaginative life and things that inspire me.  The word “evohe” is also, I am told, an expression of spiritual ecstasy–and I hope that this can be a place in which the enjoyment of imagination can lead to an enrichment of the spirit as well.  Welcome!
