About Arcadia/Myra  

Actress I would pick: Arcadia: Anna Van Hooft; Myra: Jordan Hinson

Arcadia grew up on Recar until her home was attacked by the Pandronan Empire. She was taken captive and put into the Kamps—a facility for the children of rebels against the Empire where they conduct experiments and make the children battle each other and brainwash them into becoming weapons of war. Arcadia survived and when she was being tested in front of the new emperor, Neil, she tried to kill him. Impressed she withstood everything in the Kamps, he decided to train her himself. She becomes the Emperor’s Shadow, an assassin that works behind the scenes for the emperor.

Arcadia trains for years and is given her first mission by herself on Recar. She is supposed to assassinate the leader, Jack, but fails as he figured out what she was up to. Instead, he proposes a deal with the Empire and that starts the Recar—Imperial treaty. Her and Jack work often together, and the two of them becomes closer each time.

She completes mission after mission, never questioning what was asked of her. That is, until her long last brother, whom she thought was dead, shows up trying to assassinate the Emperor. Find out what happens in the first book of the SANSHLIAN SERIES: THE QUEST, which is only $0.99 on all eBook platforms, available through your local library, and physical copies through your local bookstore. THE QUEST is also available as an audiobook through audible and iTunes.

Hi everyone!

I wanted to update everyone as to what the new year will bring! I have a lot of projects I’m currently developing and I can’t wait to share them with you!

A World of Vampires:

I will be finishing up the last three novellas here soon with the third volume paperback available in the spring.

And…..

I will be writing an adventure with most of the vampires in a modern day setting! It’s going to be like an avengers get together where they have to defeat some sort of evil? Who’s gonna be the villain? Well, you will have to find out! Also, there will be extra stories about our vampires in the back of this novel so stay tuned for that! It is scheduled to publish in the fall of 2016.

My Broken Heart:

The last three short stories are currently being written and the paperback collection should also be available in the spring.

Sanshlian Series:

The Journey is currently at the publishers being edited with a spring release. I am also planning on working on the third, and last, book in the series that should be published in the fall/winter. There will also be two preludes for 2017.

Hel’s Labyrinth

At Antik Comics, Ari and I are working hard on finishing up our graphic novel for our kickstarter. We are aiming for a kickstarter in the spring so do check back here in March! We are planning on two graphic novels for the series.

THE NEW SERIES!!!

Daughter of Hades (series name not set in stone):

Get ready for a new series! This series is about Chrys who is the unknown daughter of Hades and Persephone. Her parents have been hiding her in the underworld, not wanting any other god/dess (mainly Zeus) to find out about her as she has the power to control life and death. However, Chrys is sick of living in the underworld and wants to know what Earth is like, what being a teen is like. She takes her tutor, a teen who was her tutor on recent history and modern age, and they sneak to earth and enroll in a high school where Chrys tries to learn what being human is like. However, little does she know that god/desses have spies everywhere and it isn’t long until some figures out what’s going on.

This is scheduled for a late spring release and the second one for a winter release as well.

Tales as Old as Time (series name not set in stone):

I will (hopefully) be releasing one remake of a fairy tale legend a year. Each book in the series will be independent. The first one will be based of Little Red Riding Hood. Details to come! Little Red Riding Hood (Title TBD) will be released in summer 2016.

Pitching to agents!

I will also be pitching some of my books that I have finished, currently working on, and ones to start next year. I’m very excited about some of my new ones I am working on and hope that it will get picked up. Wish me luck as I do so!
