A boxed set, of Christmas Lights
In my mind it's never too early. I love Christmas any time of year.

Now I relish the positive parts of the season - lights, music, family, … Continue reading A boxed set, of Christmas Lights

Wake (City 0f Lights Book 1)
This is a fantasy about a dictatorship, and the banishing of all but the subservient. The Community lives in an isolated bubble built to sustain life and keep prisoners. Those who question or show signs of "cultism" are sent for "rehabilitation". It seems the stirrings of something more can never be stopped though, and Luke and Monet … Continue reading Wake (City 0f Lights Book 1)
