What if the mythic winter hat really had the secret to all growth?

I’ve always loved the old hags in stories, so much in fact, I included the mythic Beara in my upcoming book.

Want to know more about the myths of Beara? 👇🏻

The stage is set, let’s turn the tome,
Of legends old, where dragons roam;
Gather 'round, and listen well,
As the Sagaman’s tale casts its spell.

A nice suit, a big show, all to cover up fraud, scams, lies and promises that are worthless.

This one is a special treat….id like to say that the Phooka isn’t like this in my book series…but that would be a lie.

Writing my urban fantasy series saved my life.

Each morning when I woke up disappointed I’d woken up, those moments I carved out of my 60 hour work week were the time I had to breathe and wander in a world where hope pierced the darkness.

We had some “conversational snow” so I had to.

If you love wacky, morally grey sidekicks, you’ll love the Phooka in my urban fantasy series. Liïnk in bïo.

Any other slow writers out there feel intense peer pressure to rapid release? I’ve got this author friend who jabs an unintentional stick in my inadequacy daily. She’s completing a book a month. Meanwhile, the last one took 18 months and I’m on my 75th page of brainstorming notes for my next book.

#Follows Said it before, guess I have to say it again. First thing I do when contemplating following back, on any platform, is to view profile/bio, you'll be surprised how many fail to attend to this simple task. Then their content, sorry I'm NOT following back a 'me, me, me' timeline! #Share

Have the holidays become threadbare and fake? Do you love them or is it a big yawn?

If you’re like me and love a little (okay a LOT) of spooky in your Yuletide, why not take a look at the deep connections between ancient Yule celebrations and Krampus.
