New Book!


My new book, Dance of the Phoenix, published by Worldcastle Publishing, is now available on Amazon! It's a sequel to The Reckoning, although the protagonist isn't the same person. Lillith is in it, though. Blurb below, you can get my book on Amazon.

Q'ella might appear to lead a glamorous life: her appearance is human standard perfect and unlike many fairy creatures, her kind is admired and sought after. Meet Que, short for Q’ella; a former royal forest fey, now the owner of a dance studio post-Reckoning, the day when all fairy creatures became visible to humans. Que doesn't like humans all that much, but does her best to get along in a world she’s rather have no part of. But involved she becomes when a handsome new dance recruit draws her into realms of magic outside her own, and in the process she realizes her heart and mind have been locked tighter than she ever knew…or wanted.

New Book!

My book, The Prodigy, has been signed by Zharmae! The write up about it was really nice. I've had much fun working with the editor, Sara Bangs. She is talented, communicates, and is encouraging...what more could you want? Not sure of the exact release date but I'll keep you posted.

The Final Frontier

I love Star Trek in all of its reincarnations and adaptations; I even watched the cartoon series with great fervor. I love reading sci-fi too. I’ve written some short sci-fi stories, but until now never attempted a novel.

Why? It’s hard. And it’s not my bailiwick; fantasy worlds also must be constructed, but I know my fairies. I’m also fairly well versed in world religions, so with a little research, I can successfully add a spiritual element or two in between the elves and dryads.

But sci-fi…whew. Aliens have to make sense; you can’t have them be all bug eyed and green skinned and then have them prancing around on earth, um, someone would notice. The science has to make sense. A unique culture must be invented. Language. Arts. Social mores….eeeeeeek.

But I’m doing it. Sci-fi is something I haven’t done yet. Since I've read a lot of it, at least I’m familiar with the genre. And, although I can’t add fairies, I might just be able to sneak in my signature spiritual bit.

It’s scary. But I’ll try to boldly go where I’ve not gone before…

New Book Signed!



I'm very excited to be signed with World Castle Publishing...new book is The Reckoning. No release date yet, blurb is below. Yeha!!!

Lillith Brown's a daimon muse, a fairy creature who inspires humans to be the best they can be. Her job used to be a lot easier when humans thought muses, like all fey, were imaginary. But then something happened that changed the world forever; all fairy creatures became visible to humans. Now Lillith functions as a counselor while she finds and inspires humans. It doesn’t help that humans confuse the word daimon with demon. It also doesn’t help that Lillith looks the part. In her free time she assists the local police in cases involving the fey. Her life is complex, but pretty humdrum; that is, until her newest client is murdered. Lillith, along with her friend, Sergeant Frank Peters, are sent into a whirlwind of excitement and danger as they discover the murder is only the tip of the iceberg.
