Glimmerheart Grove

Beschreibung

Mililea Windwalker, a clever and fiercely independent halfling with a knack for magical mechanics and sarcasm, lives in the snowy village of Glimmerheart Grove with her scone-thieving companion, Mr. Tibbins, a charcoal-grey teddy bear hamster with a taste for editorial commentary and jam. Her peaceful days of enchanted breakfasts and meddlesome muffins are upended when a mysterious scroll arrives, summoning her to the ancient stone glade. What begins as a simple summons becomes a transformative quest through memory, myth, and magical bureaucracy. Guided by cryptic echoes and grumpy archivists, including a raccoon named Thistlequill and a metaphysical librarian owl, Mililea must face a series of Trials: Echo, Shadow, and Becoming. These challenges force her to confront who she was, who she feared she'd become, and who she still might choose to be. With Brimstone, her loyal, semi-sentient motorcycle, and Tibbins ever-snarky at her side, Mililea ventures through scrollbound corridors, paradoxical archives, rogue arcs, and memory-drenched valleys. Along the way, she duels with forgotten selves, reconciles fractured pasts, and navigates the bureaucratic absurdity of fate, one annotated scroll and jam-fueled breakfast at a time. In a world where memory is magic and punctuation can explode, Glimmerheart Grove is a whimsical, heartfelt fantasy about what it means to carry your past, choose your future, and ride gloriously into the weirdness of becoming.

Autor

I was born in Canon City, Colorado, to Irish/Scottish parents, grew up in Canon City and Texas, now living in Florida for the last eleven years. My first book, "Arkadia a Druid's Tale," was published on March 1st, 2010. I love to write since I was 14 years of age but never thought myself good enough. When I met a man that encouraged me to fulfill my dreams at the age of 32 and still encourages me to move forward with my new works of art. Now I have the sequel to Arkadia and two others published. I hope you all will enjoy them. When I'm asked if I write about myself, I have to sit back and try not to laugh. I was told that since my characters carry my pen name that my readers think it is about me. The truth is, I write under my characters' name since she is the one who is really writing the book. I'm just her instrument of use. The one that allows her to write through me. Now you might think I'm crazy, but I can assure you, I'm just as sane as everyone else. I don't want people to know my real name. Those who do already think I have lost my ever-loving mind. My family seems to think I should write successful conclusions, where the hero or heroine lives happily ever after. Yet that is not me. I want to write about good/evil, happiness/devastation. I want it where my readers are crying with the characters when they are happy or sad. I want them to want to do murder when the bad guy is out to harm another. I want my readers to cheer when the characters finally have a happy time and things have gone their way. That is who I am. The kind of writer I want to be. So yes I hide behind my main character. I use her to keep me safe.
