16 years ago, scientists perfected the art of genetic manipulation and parents were offered a choice to have their fetuses enhanced. Smarter, more athletic, more attractive. Today your teenager is living with the consequences of the choice you made.

  Malous and Jonalee Ilsedine, twin heirs to the throne of Kinh, have spent their entire lives together. They're inseparable, and neither of them can imagine life without the other. That perfect future is shattered when their father, King Liazar, announces that he has set up political marriages for both of them. Jonalee's marriage would take her away from Kinh - and from Malous. The twins take matters into their own hands and plot to steal Jonalee's marriage contract. However, when Malous meets his sister's fiance, he falls for the very man who would take his sister away.  When Jonalee discovers her brother's betrayal, she demands that Malous accompany her to watch a sacred water spirit ritual to prove his allegiance to her and their plan. Unfortunately, it's forbidden for anyone to watch the ritual, a key tenet of the covenant all members of the royal family must swear to uphold. So when the twins accidentally disrupt the ritual, the water spirits dem...

[Image: My Hermes Baby typewriter with text "Draft Zero to Writing Hero"] Hi fronds! Welcome to the grand tale about my writing journey! I wanted to write about this in all its roller-coaster ups and downs because I had a lot of trouble finding this information when I was getting started in 2016. This is definitely going to span several posts, but I hope my story will help someone else with their own path to publishing. If you'd like to know how this all began, please start with  Chapter I . Chapter VI: NaNoWriMo 2018 With less than a month to go before NaNoWriMo, I was in panic mode. I'm a planner, but a notoriously bad one - usually, I think I'm 80% ready, but the real number is more like...30%. Even so, I usually have my NaNoWriMo idea bouncing around in my mind for a few months before November rolls around; having only three weeks was...well, like being told I suddenly had to write a full novel on a topic I'd barely researched.

I'm Back! and It's Preptober Time!

Hello, fronds. It’s been quite a while. Okay, a really effing long time. A year. But hello, because I am (at least for now) RETURNED. I know the grammar there was wrong. It’s just how the words happen in my head. Anyway, a lot of not-so-fun stuff happened that made me stop writing on my blog for a while. Without going into too many specifics (I’m a fan of my privacy), after last year’s NaNoWriMo, I developed some mental health issues and it took me a long time to get back to the level where I am now. Moving on... I decided to start blogging again because I’m gearing up to start Preptober, during which I’ll be planning for this year’s NaNoWrio project with the 90-Day Novel method. This year’s work is tentatively titled THE JULIE PROJECT, since it’s based on the legendary life of Julie d’Aubigny. If all goes well, this will be my fourth finished manuscript, which is exciting! And I want to keep track of what I’m doing, not only for myself, but in the hopes that this m...
