 It's time for the Down Falls the Queen cover reveal! GetCovers design did a beautiful job saving me when my original cover designer for this novella couldn't make it work, and I am so very grateful!
Down Falls the Queen is the next novella in my "Splitting Worlds" series, scheduled for release in June 2021. Rei, the Tengu Warrior Princess, is only a week away from becoming the next Ascended--the Queen of the Tengu. However, her father's assassination and the untimely intervention entreaty from the Angels taking refuge in The Between--the Tengu's domain--throws Rei into a chaotic whirlwind of mystery that she must unravel before she loses her only chance to wear the crown.

This week I faced one of my biggest fears yet as a writer, thanks to the amazing Anna Walner! Now, you can watch my first interview as an author: The Vow That Twisted Fate on YouTube on Anna's channel or right here in this post: If you've been following me a little while, you know that I interview fellow indie/self published authors every month about their work. In the past four months I've led a virtual write-in for AutoCrit (an AMAZING self-editing software that gives genre-specific editing standards) and spoken at SaS Con abut professional beta reading, but NOTHING compares to the nerves that wrack up the first time you're in the hot seat sharing your own works.
With that being said, Anna made my first interview as an author smooth, fun, and positive. I cannot thank Anna enough!

Splitting Dusk has been a huge success thanks to your support! I've read your comments and messages, and am excited to share a new novella announcement and character art: Rei - Tengu Warrior Princess.
I commissioned this awesome piece of Splitting Dusk's most popular character from the super talented Sbsillustrations on Fiverr (HERE is their Fiverr). Stoic, deadly, and devoted, Rei has served the Tengu as their commander-in-chief far longer than her role as Natius' (the Demon King) captain of the guard. It's time to share her story! New novella announcement: "Down Falls the Queen" (working title). Here's some sneak-peak information about the June 2021 novella: A Tengu serves the world as the god-appointed hand of justice. Rei, to be exact, is that hand. For years the youngest Tengu Warrior Princess has served her father, the Tengu King, to keep the balance of good and evil poised on the edge of her blade, never tipping too far to one side. Cold, calculating, and loyal, every Tengu knows that Rei will follow in the tradition of her people and, as the youngest heir, ascend the throne on her 500th birthday so that her father may retire from his millennium-long reign. Her straightforward world cracks, though, when twin brothers from the nearby Angel Refuge seek her father's aid in resolving an eternal dispute between the Angels and the Demons. Can Rei remain an impartial mediator? Or is the world that the twin abominations--vampires--shows her too tempting to settle for the status quo? --New Adult Fantasy Novella-- More details are coming soon!
