Goodreads asked Orysia Dawydiak:

What are you currently working on?

Orysia Dawydiak The third book in the Kira series will be published in 2018. At the end of the second book, Kira's Quest, Kira was thirteen and she had found her biological parents. Five years later, she is ready to take a huge step toward a career as marine botanist, when a strange merrow shows up in her village, and others appear in the sea. There is talk of an alliance with the foreign merrows to finally drive the finfolk out of their ancestral home, Merhaven. Kira has inherited the throne from her father who can no longer take his merrow form. That is a lot for a young merrow to take on, but it is nothing compared to what follows operation 'free Merhaven'.

Currently I am working on a dog memoir. Since this dog, Asil Akkush cannot write, and in fact is dead, I have taken the liberty of telling his story from his perspective. I've been involved with Turkish livestock guardian dogs for decades, and in the last century I co-wrote a book on these types of guardian dogs (yes, I've been around a long time). So I believe I can represent this one particular dog, his life and adventures as a travelling stud dog whelped (born) in Turkey and working his way across North America. Stay tuned!
