There will be blood...

I thought today I would share a new teaser with you all from my new book, Enchanted Legacy, due out in the Spring. Speaking of Spring it reminds me of how warm it is then. Today, with temperatures plummeting into the negatives, it's Spring I am dreaming of. Stay warm out there folks, and if you happen to live somewhere where it's nice and warm. You are lucky. 

Now, back to the teaser photo, I have shared. This book is going to be different than what people are expecting from me. This is a dark, fantasy, novel. 
My first stand alone novel, as it is. I wanted to write a book that reminded me of one my favorite love stories, yet a tragic love story. Romeo and Juliet. 
This is my take on that concept. 
No one will ever compare to Shakespeare and they shouldn't try. That's why I wrote this. I wanted something different, I wanted something that you could sink your teeth into, so to speak. 
I wanted to write true feelings on how sometimes the world isn't always on our side, and we have to make our own paths. 
We have to make our lives for the better. 
Not letting others bring us down, pull us down, and overall, learn who we want to be. I often find myself wondering why everything goes wrong at once, or why when everything seems right, something goes wrong. 
How do we overcome the shit that gets thrown at us. Everyone has a story. Everyone has the ability to fight for what they want, what they believe and fight to be accepted for who you are. This book also has a character in it, I became very fond of. 

As I started writing this story I wanted this character. He had to be in a book. It may not be what people want, and I may take quite a bit of slack for writing a character like this, but I didn't care. 
I hope that when Spring does arrive you will fall in love with this book as much as I have. You may even recognize yourself in this one. Fight for what you want, don't let others try to sway you into being something your not. BE YOU! Believe in yourself, and the power to be awesome just the way you are. See you on the dark side, my friends..

Thought I forgot you..


WOW! It's been a while since I have wrote on my blog. I know, I know.. I should have told you that I was going into a cave for a while.. but.. I have came to spread cheer! My second book, which is a stand alone, is finished! Coming in 2015 Enchanted Legacy will be out near an EReader near you! This book has so many thing I love in a story that I wanted to share with the world. My first romance I loved was Romeo and Juliet. It may have been a horrific ending to a story, but the love was there. Another favorite was the Twilight Saga. Now, again, I know what your thinking. Shakespeare to Twilight? How in the world.. but I loved both. After working on an idea for a while Bridget's story came to me. Thus, locking myself away to write. 

Now, for those of you that read the first book I wrote, Charming Selene, I am more than half way through the second book on the writing. It's from a different point of view, so I know I am taking a huge leap by doing that. I wanted people to know someone's else's thoughts and feelings as Selene traveled the road she was and is on. That book, the second in the Charming Series will be out in the summer of 2015. 

For the big TADA of this little blog post.. MUSIC! That's right. My first love. The one thing I never forget to share with you. Music. I have decided to do something WAY outside of the box. I am going to try and produce some of my own songs to match up with the books. This way you get a feeling of how the book should read. When the chords are low and sad, when they are heavy and hard, and when they are amazingly beautiful. This is a dream of mine, and I hope I can do this..

We all have to find faith in ourselves at one point. I know that my book is nothing compared to so many others in the Indie World. I also know that if I doubt myself all the time nothing good will come of that either. I am here to tell you dreams can happen.. You, yourself, can make these dreams come true. Nothing is ever easy.. I have known this for a while. People assume that fame and fortune comes from money etc.. it doesn't. It comes from within. Believe in yourself, and you will find that your making your own fame and fortune lives inside of you.

Before the holidays come I just wanted to take the time to let you know.. I am still here.. I am still holding onto a dream. 

Best Wishes,

    Dee
