The Fallen Shadows Series - Book 1

Writing has been the one thing I could always count on, no matter what. It is the one thing that I know that I am great at. I know when I have written something of substance and when something needs work. For instance, my previous two books, “Midnight To Sunrise,” and “Darkness In Between,” were really exciting to write and put a new spin on the vampire genre. However, I truly believe that my latest book, “The Fallen Shadows: Into The Light,” is by far the best thing I have ever written, aside from a poem I wrote in memory of my best friend. I know when to criticize my own work and when people are just being mean. 

I cannot even begin to express the thrill I am feeling knowing that “The Fallen Shadows: Into The Light,” is done and ready for publication. However, unlike my last two books, I will be holding off on self-publishing this book as a publisher has expressed interest in seeing the manuscript. If I have any luck in the world she will take the book on and I will become a well-known published author, something I have dreamt about my entire life. 

I have been busting my ass trying to get to this point, trying to better my craft and get the attention of publishers and I have finally done it. It is both a terrifying and wonderful feeling.
