Imuji in “Wings of Change”

February 28, 2019

My young, Olympus High dragon in Imuji has found a new home in the fabulous new anthology out from my publisher, Camden Park Press. Wings of Change is an amazing collection of stories about young people and (mostly) young dragons, and I’m proud to be a part of it!

Wings of Change gathers tales of young dragons growing into their scales, and human youths making choices that shape their destinies – destinies that will be forever changed by their interaction with the dragons.

Phouka in “Here be Fairies”

May 1, 2018

Fairies, fair folk, imps, trolls, and pixies—they haunt our myths from Ireland to Iceland and everywhere else. Join in the fairy fun, or fairy fear, as good, bad, and mischievous they show themselves. Dare you take the trip to Fairyland? No one who returns is ever quite the same.

And Fiona and her phouka are delighted to join in on the fun in Here be Fairies:

Fiona’s mother and siblings are fairies. Sparkles everywhere. Her uncle is a leprechaun, complete with rainbow and pot of gold. But Fiona takes after her father’s side of the family – the plain-old human side, without a drop of magic of her own.

And while the leprechaun did agree to grant her wish for her very own magic, she should have known better than for it to turn out exactly as she’d hoped for…

Imuji in “Fantasy in the City” collection

June 20, 2016

ImujiCover72_600x900I’m excited to announce a new Olympus High short story – Imuji.

Tim’s would-be girlfriend has snakes in her hair.
His best friend appears to be incombustible.
And during the night, a dragon tattoo has appeared
on Tim’s arm, a symbol of his half-Korean heritage.

Tim MacLaren was an ordinary student at Olympus High,
until the day after his seventeenth birthday when he discovered
that, like most of his friends, he was anything but “ordinary.”

 

Imuji is part of the Fantasy in the City bundle – an exciting collection of twenty short urban fantasy stories, offered through BundleRabbit.

What’s BundleRabbit? I’m glad you asked! BundleRabbit is a cool new way you can get collections of stories, by authors you know and authors new to you. The Fantasy in the City bundle is only available for a limited time, so you’ll want to “hop” on over right away!
