Big News!
After a two year writing journey, I finally published: Love, Treachery, and Other Terrors! If you’ve been following me for a while, the synopsis below probably looks familiar. This is the novel length version of a series of stories I put on my blog a few years back.
What’s different? It’s about twice as long—there’s more romance, more action, and more humor and everything is more fleshed out.
If you are one of the people who read the original stories, I hereby honor you with the title hipster. You have gained access to a whole array of phrases, including:
“I liked the originals better.”
“Katy was great before she sold out.”
Wield this power wisely.
Synopsis:
Fairies have one job. They are tasked with helping people learn and practice virtue. I am sure you’ve heard stories of fairies taking the form of beggars, blessing those who help them, and cursing those who don’t.
However, not all fairies are good. Instead of helping people practice virtue, some encourage vice. These are the types of fairies you generally want to avoid. Nothing would delight them more than seeing you destroy someone you love.
Unfortunately, for the young King Alexander, his sister falls victim to a pair of such fairies who convince her to launch a coup. Alexander has no choice but to flee to a barbarian kingdom and try to build himself a new life among the uncouth locals.
Even if happiness were possible in such a place, could he live with himself if he left his people at the mercy of such evil beings? And even if he wanted to help his people, how could he possibly match the fairies’ power?
This quirky coming of age story is about responsibility, courage, and self-sacrifice.
But Katy, this costs money! What if I don’t like spending money?
Wow! We have so much in common! For a limited time, you can get a free ebook in exchange for an Amazon review. Follow this link to sign up: https://booksprout.co/arc/54438/love-treachery-and-other-terrors
That’s all I’ve got for now! I have more projects in the works, I’ll be back with more updates, limericks, and short stories later!
Bye-bye!
