ABOUT JOSHUA AND THE ARROW REALM:

On August 30th take the lightning road back to a world of beasts, bandits, and heroes in book two of the Lightning Road series. Join Joshua in a new fight for power in the Arrow Realm. Can Joshua and his friends conquer an unstoppable evil?

Joshua never thought priligy he’d return to the world of Nostos but is soon called to the Arrow Realm to free his imprisoned friend, King Apollo, kidnapped as a power pawn in Queen Artemis’s quest to conquer every realm. With his loyalties divided between our world and theirs, Joshua wonders whether he alone can restore magic to the twelve powerless Olympian heirs and save all those enslaved. But when he finds himself abandoned in his quest, he fears he cannot only save those imprisoned—but himself as well.

“Fast-paced and endlessly inventive, Joshua and the Arrow Realm is a high-stakes romp through a wild world where descendants of the Greek gods walk beside you, beasts abound, and not everything—or everyone—is as it seems.” ~ Michael Northrop, New York Times bestselling author of the TombQuest series

Second, I had a productive writing retreat at The Highlights Foundation this past weekend, writing final scenes on the new teen fantasy I hope to finish soon. The book is about a culture that is ruled by inherited memory on a floating island and I am having so much fun with it!

Ahh … Earl Grey tea. Braveheart soundtrack. Pattering of rain with sun showers. Hummingbird in my window. Hawk above. Perfect.

Walks in the woods and through the countryside filled my head with scenes of love, loss, and triumph. I floated back to my cabin, propelled by words in the air.

I love how this tree marking looks like a seagull forever soaring into the unknown … kind of like storytelling. Over and over. It’s where the magic imprints itself on the page buy xanax with discovery. But first, to discover we must venture into the unknown …

There’s something about a cabin all to yourself in the words to let the words flow. Nothing but you and your characters.

But there’s also something to meeting up with old friends – and making new! Here’s my friend Jess Rinker with me, a talented writer to watch out for. Great things are coming from her!
