Inspiration Through Adversity

Inspiration Through Adversity

Any busy author knows that trying to juggle writing life, working a full-time job, or even being a mom can be taxing. You need to figure out what best works for you and your schedule without burning yourself out. I took some time away from writing and YouTube to try and figure that out. The biggest lesson i took away from it was time management. I’m not one to follow a set schedule but even putting aside one or two hours a night for writing is better than none at all. Just when i thought i had it figured out I got sick, and that too left me feeling fatigued and wiped out.

Homeland: The Legend of Drizzt by R.A. Salvatore 

Discover the origin story of one of the greatest heroes of the Forgotten Realms—Drizzt Do’Urden—in this thrilling first installment in the classic Dungeons & Dragons series, the Dark Elf Trilogy

Drow ranger Drizzt Do’Urden, first introduced in The Icewind Dale Trilogy, quickly became one of the fantasy genre’s standout characters. With Homeland, Salvatore pulls back the curtain to reveal the startling tale of how this hero came to be—how this one lone drow walked out of the shadowy depths of the Underdark; how he left behind an evil society and a family that wanted him dead.
 
As the third son of Mother Malice and weaponmaster Zaknafein, Drizzt Do’Urden is meant to be sacrificed to Lolth, the evil Spider Queen, per drow tradition. But with the unexpected death of his older brother, young Drizzt is spared—and, as a result, further ostracized by his family. As Drizzt grows older, developing his swordsmanship skills and studying at the Academy, he begins to realize that his idea of good and evil does not match up with those of his fellow drow. Can Drizzt stay true to himself in a such an unforgiving, unprincipled world? 

The Unlife of Lisa Cooper by J.M. Celi

For over century and a half, Lisa has kept the toll of her curse at bay. In doing so, she’s maintained the remnants of the woman she was at life, but she has denied herself a great deal of power. Such a sacrifice can be dangerous in nights filled with supernatural perils. Matters complicate when a mortal becomes entwined in her life. How will Lisa keep her secret hidden from a new friend while protecting him from the horrors that threaten herself and everyone close to her?

Current W.I.P

After the success of L.N Frost’s poetry book launch Shadows Abyss: A Book of Poetry, she is currently working on a new poetry project titled Disenchanted. It will feature a collection of character poems retelling the fates of fairytale heroes, villains, and sidekicks.

After being stumped with how to conclude The Hunted Trilogy we are revising the books starting with book one, Hunted: The Immortal’s Kiss. We reached out to fellow author Jenna O’Malley for her coach writing services. We hope to republish the first two books and finish book three with her help. Here’s the link to her services.

Ko-Fi

To help with the eventual audio book of the trilogy and the other books both L.N Frost and I have published, we created a Ko-Fi. The goal is to share fun articles to help gain attention to the page help support the goal of making oir books into an audio format and make them more accessible.

YouTube

I wanted to help promote fellow indie authors. I had the idea of doing author interviews where I would send out a list of questions for the author to answer and a promotion for past or current books they’ve released. The first one of course was with L.N Frost for Shadows Abyss and there will be a video to go with it along with each interview we do with a link to the full interview which is featured on our Ko-Fi page.
