I'm going to read you a short story I wrote!

This was originally written as part of Dr. Kobus Vorster's Power Therapy series to help illustrate how some of the techniques from his trademarked Power Therapy would work in practice. He asked me to write them as sort of fairy tales with the characters either representing or using the multiple techniques Dr. Vorster created in order to help others achieve and maintain mental and emotional well being.

The characters, story and world are all of my own creation.

My partner was actually asking me some insightful questions tonight about my writing, which got me thinking that maybe I should clarify some differences between my two different book series that I write. Buckle up! This is going to be a shorter one ;)

See what I did there? I think I'm funny.

Also, come see me and YA fantasy author @themagiclocker at the Time Travelers Book Fair on Saturday, September 30th in Acworth, GA! There will be lots of other great authors there too, so you should definitely come check out the event. Both Elara and I will be in costume for the entire event.

Learn about what I have planned for DragonCon 2023 happening this Labor Day weekend in Atlanta, GA. I've got book swag and selfie fun times.

Delve into what makes the main character from Spare the Swallow and the upcoming Lost Beacon Chronicles series tick and why she always tries so hard even when it hurts her.

I've been on a bit of a hiatus with my podcast, because, well I'm doing everything all by myself as well as working full time and managing a household, etc... Sometimes, something has to go on hold and for the past couple months that thing has been this podcast. Hoping you can all forgive me. I genuinely appreciate everyone who listens, so I'm going to do better for all of you.

Anyway, this episode is about what I've been up to over June and July 2023 as well as getting ready for DragonCon! Yay!!

Sometimes, I think we writers forget to extend self care to ourselves. I know I do. Let's be nicer to ourselves :)

I've learned A LOT since my episode last year about self publishing, so I wanted to share what I have learned with everyone who listens because I have better, more helpful information now. Yay!

*SPOILER ALERT* I will be talking about my upcoming book, The Queen Witch, in this episode. I will not give away major surprises or plot points at all, but I will have to talk about how the characters evolve, as well as who the antagonist(s) is in the story. So, no actual spoilers, but if you're someone who doesn't want to know anything about the story before reading the book, you might want to skip this one.
