BLURB:

 

The Fallenwood Chronicles is the ongoing story of Ash Kensington, a young woman who finds herself transported into a fantasy world, where she must take up arms in a battle of Good vs. Evil, against the Dark Lord Malegaunt. Tragedy strikes her life in the real world, but she finds friends in Fallenwood, like her mentor Will Everett, a talking cat named Greymalkin, and a court jester named Terces. Working together, they battle against the odds as Ash faces attacks from the world and from within. Eventually Ash finds the strength within herself, to attempt the fight against Malegaunt, against overwhelming odds, come what may

EXCERPT:

 

Her heart raced and she breathed slowly, trying to calm her frazzled nerves. Glancing around, she wondered how far off the road she’d wandered. She knew it had been midday when she’d started running, and now looking up into the star-filled sky, it had to be late into the night. A rush of air greeted her the moment she reached this strange part of the forest, before her eyes had temporarily forsaken her. The wind whipped around her from all sides. She backed away from where she stood, and the wind felt like it was whooshing up from a precipice. Ashley paused to allow her eyes to adjust to the dark. When her sight returned, she realized that she was standing nowhere near a cliff—it was just an unfamiliar area of forest. Suddenly, a ball of fire hurtled overhead in an arc toward her. Her mind screamed at her to run, but she found that her legs wouldn’t move. The flaming orb continued its descent, burrowing itself into the soft ground only inches away from Ashley’s boots. Two men rushed toward her, arguing all the while as Ashley stood immobilized. Her bones were in revolt. Her brain scrambled for an alias to give out to the men if they asked, but she could only come up with Ash, because she was looking at the little pile of soot at her boots. “Deflected,” the man in the lead announced.

INTERVIEW 

If you could apologize to someone in your past, who would it be?

I would apologize to some of the people I’ve gotten into online spats with, years ago in my fiery youth. 

 

If you could keep a mythical/ paranormal creature as a pet, what would you have?

I think it would be fun to have a talking cat, like my character Greymalkin. 

 

How do you keep your writing different from all the others that write in this particular genre?

That’s a great question. There are so many talented writers out there that are working in this genre, but I feel that what sets my writing apart is that I really try and delve into the emotions of my characters. 

 

What are the best and worst pieces of writing advice you ever received?

The best piece of writing advice I’ve gotten, was to do research on the subject I write about. The worst piece of advice, was to go with independent publishing for my works instead of a traditional publisher. 

 

Are the experiences in this book based on someone you know, or events in your own life?

The events of the series are based on events from my own life, such as having to make difficult decisions early-on in life, and facing the world’s darkness and its various forms.
