“We read to know that we are not alone.” - C.S. Lewis

As a writer, I want to capture the hearts and emotions of my characters. They bleed red like the rest of us. Their feelings–positive or negative–are sometimes too deep for words. People crave connections with others who are like them. They want to relate. They want to know they are not alone.

These two books have made a world of difference in my writing. They have allowed me to turn ideas into people with heartbeats. People who are as human as you and me.

Looking for a fun, exciting read this summer? Something is Moving is a kingdom adventure book for teen/young adult readers. It is available in ebook and print on Amazon and also for FREE on Kindle Unlimited.

Summary:

People say the Arthur is haunted. That the ghosts of those who entered it and never came out still dwell within the mysterious forest.

For twelve-year-old Hari, who has grown up among peasants and thieves, the Arthur is her safe haven…her home. She and the rest of her village reside in the forest in secret, living a simple life free of the king’s tyranny and the cruelties of the outside world. Then comes the day when their peace is shattered by a stranger who is on a violent rampage, murdering innocent people and burning the villages to the ground. Forced to flee her wooded sanctuary, Hari believes no place can ever be safe again.

Bitter, hurting, and frightened of what each new day holds, she embarks on a journey to save her people and learn more about her broken past. But the darkness is spreading, and if Hari cannot learn to fight it, not even the truth about her family may save her from the darkness growing inside her.
