Blog postHeroes. You gotta love 'em. Well, at least I DO. Today, I want to share my top ten favorites from movies/tv shows/video games! Note: This is not the order of Most Favorite, that would be far too hard to choose! ROBIN HOOD From ROBIN HOOD (lol) It's fitting to start with the one who is no doubt my first crush on the screen. And every time I watch this movie, it's obvious why. I LOVE his wit, his humor, his kindness! Ahhhh!!!! Strengths: Ingenuity, frankness, wit. Flaws/Weakness: Overconfidence,

Blog postHave you seen the cover for my upcoming release yet? If not, take a look! It is a beauty! I always knew I wanted a beautiful, character-based cover for this story. And for a long time, I was determined I would be the artist to create it. I went through several versions all strongly featuring Tellie, my other main character, a young orphan girl (some of you might remember those cover concepts). But recently I decided that was appealing to the wrong audience for the overall series as the next boo

Blog postGosh! When is the last time I stayed up late to read a book? I can't even remember. Fantasy Romance is not my typical go-to genre as I generally find it full of uncomfortable hormones making poor decisions or sweet and clean but really boring. But every once in a while I find a gem in this niche and FIERCE HEART is such a gem! First off, ELVEEEEEESSSSS. I'm really picky about how elves are handled in books. I love Tolkien's elves, and I generally find other elves in fantasy fall short to

Blog postIn a word? Stunning. From the very beginning, it is crystal clear that the reader is in for a unique story. Its storytelling style is quite unlike anything I’ve read. I appreciated the “historical fragments” in between chapters that kept the reader on track rather being lost in the heroine’s confusions. I am usually frustrated when our main pov believes a bunch of lies, but it was well executed here. The magic is also...vibrant and creative. Some of the most exquisite and ferocious magic I’ve

Blog postWhat’s this!? A previously unknown clean YA Fantasy series with a really fascinating faerie world and GORGEOUS covers? I’m so excited! This is a world where humanity is misusing and draining magic—where fairy nectar is used as drugs, where unicorns age in stables, where merfolk are kept in chains. Our heroine and her little sister fear their father, who is not a typical drunk father in most fantasy novels, but a recognized criminal—former Assassin, now Druglord. To save her little sister

Blog postI have a lovely guest with me today, none other than the debut fairy-tale author, HANNA SANDVIG! If you haven't had a chance to see her beautiful book, then behold. Isn't that cover gorgeous? Even more amazing, she did it herself. YES, she is ALSO an artist and has a book cover business, so check out the links to her sites at the end of this post. A self-published fairytale author/artist named Hanna, OBVIOUSLY you can see why I had to interview her, lol. So let's get to the questions! What is

Blog post5 stars!!! Romanov...Romanov...Romanov.... I’ve heard the name from friend after friend, the recommendations unending. And so I finally obeyed the chant, and read this book for myself. To be honest, I had reservations. I desperately wanted to like it, but I also knew the true history of the Romanov family broke my heart and I wasn’t sure I’d be able to handle a book about their deaths and an explanation on how some didn’t die even though current evidence is strongly to the contrary. Howev

Blog postAll Isobel wants is a quiet place to read, but apparently that's too much to ask. She only needs to make it through one last summer with her broken family before she can leave for university and get on with her life. At least she has her books and the solitude of the woods. But there are wolves in these woods. Caught out in the forest after dark, Isobel is pursued by a disturbingly intelligent pack of wolves. When the grizzly bear who rescues her turns out to be a cursed fae prince, she

Blog postMY REVIEW! I devoured Mark of the Raven in a day, so of course I was on pins and needles for the next book! Flight of the Raven picks up exactly where the first book ended and sets us forth on a quest of self-discovery. It was really beautiful to see Selene open her guarded heart to the possibilities of happiness and hope she thought was completely barred from her. As she and Damien carefully explored their new and unexpected relationship, I both cheered and cringed because they are so awkward

Blog postNot too long ago, I enjoyed a genderswap Sleeping Beauty retelling called DAGGER'S SLEEP by Tricia Mingerink...and now she is continuing the series with a Cinderella tale! Behold the cover reveal! High King Alexander rules the Seven Kingdoms of Tallahatchia—a divided nation on the brink of yet another war. When an invitation arrives from the king of Pohatomie, Alex knows it must be a trap, but could it also be his opportunity to unite the kingdoms? Daemyn Rand has lived a hundred years, served

Blog postAs a young Tolkienite, I devoured "The Silmarillion." I fell in love with the epic elves therein and mourned their tragic fates. For the most part, I'm not a fan of reading tragedy, but nevertheless Tolkien's style and world drew me in, and eventually the great evil was defeated. Still, as I grow older, I look back at some of the tragic lives of the characters and....I feel discouraged. Mainly, I am sorry for the elf Maedhros, who after swearing a deadly oath as a fiery youth, quickly

Blog postI just so happened to see this book for free as recommended by another author, and that beautiful cover convinced me to give it a try. Boy, am I ever so glad I did! I've never heard of this author, but he is AWESOME. The desert atmosphere is so vivid, the action is intense, the characters are excellent, all important qualities to tell a good story, and a good story this is. It follows the journey of a sixteen year old girl determined to prove that a woman can also join a special sect of her

Blog postHappy Valentine's Day! I know, I know, I'm a day early, but tomorrow the winners for the coloring contest are announced so I figured I would do a Valentine post today! Just the other day, someone put Keeva and Idris up on top of their favorite couples in literature! I can't begin to say how THRILLED I am how many people have connected to them. I'm really thankful for their romance, they basically wrote themselves. Her post inspired me to make my own list of favorite couples in literature! So he

Blog postYou know, I've been noticing a growing trend in literature or rather just culture in general. I don't think it's anything new, just a repeat of history, something deep in our nature. And that is a fascination of darkness. As a writer friend of mine recently pointed out, villains are often given an enormous amount of power, respect, and dignity, making them a popular and admired character. That same romanticization of evil has bled into the protagonists. More and more books feature a morally gre

Blog post"The setting is moody, mysterious, and frigid..." " All the descriptions are gorgeous and real, showing the author's artistic background in the way the setting is painted in exquisite detail. " " ...description of scenery and events made me feel like I was there ...." Readers have praised Fairest Son for its descriptive setting and atmosphere, and I attribute this to many things...reading other great books, real life experience, artistic devotion, and..........Skyri

Blog postHappy New Year, Fair ones! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are beginning a wonderful new year! So about a little question.... "Are you writing another book?" 'Tis the classic question asked by a fan to an author whose book they have just finished and enjoyed and found that they want more, but there is currently no more to be had. And the answer is YES, I am writing another book, in fact I have been writing it for a long time....much, much, MUCH longer than Fairest Son. So

Blog postSo strange thing...I actually didn't read a lot of books this year. Yes, it was a busy year, but also I just had such trouble finishing books...distracted, I guess. Nevertheless, those I did read were pretty good, so let me share my top five favorites! The Princess Search by Melanie Cellier I've been enjoying Cellier's books for a while now, but this is probably my favorite. A family of royal siblings going on a vacation (of sorts, it's more than that), with the main character being a talented
