I have a novella titled Exiled that just came out, and I'm currently working on the next full-length novel that I hope to have out this fall. I'm so glad you've loved my series. Thank you!(less)

My husband, who also loves fantasy novels, and I were having a fun discussion about that question one day. I started thinking about elves living around us without us knowing. How would it work? What might happen?
That led to me wondering if they would have children with humans, and if they did, what would happen if the half-blood child found out?

After that, the initial scene where Arlyn confronts Lyr popped into my head. The point of entry for the reader was mine, too. :) I actually tried to shift the opening several times to give a bit more of her arrival, but nothing seemed to work quite as well. Everything flowed from there.(less)

Solace Updates

Hello,

I did a small status update on my Currently Reading listing, but I thought I would do a post with more details. I've finally finished the first draft of Solace! I'm brushing it up a little before sending it over to my editor.

I have the release date set for April, but if editing goes well, I'll move that sooner. Fingers crossed! And have you seen the cover? I love it so much.
