SECOND NOVEL RELEASED!!!! - please check my website for details!

I am in a continued fight with P.A. regarding my contract and rights but I am so glad to announce that my second book will be published this winter with Inkwater Press.

Entitled "Nicholea: A Life Damned" I am hoping it will be a success and is the prequel to my first work of fiction: "Wicked Dreams".

Okay I have to vent. I received my very first royalty cheque from P.A. and I have never been more disappointed in my life. Just one in a series on disappointments with them.

ANGELS

They say angels are found
in the strangest of places.
They appear when you least expect it.
Their affect on your life,

The one message we all search for...

Love and be loved in return.

ASHES

We come from ashes
And back to ashes we go
Scattered across the firey sky

And much care we must take
To feed and water this gift

Once it is over
And we are said and done
Water is drained and ashes return.

Well I am using a lot of my nervous energy by working on my next masterpiece! LOL
I am 50 pages into a new manuscript and I am pleased to say it is going well so far. A little different from the other two, this one delves into the faerie realm. Can't wait to see where it takes me.

Happy writing!
