The Unwanted Little Witch Shifter

Fifteen-year-old Melica has always stood between worlds, born of a witch mother and a shapeshifter father exiled before her birth. On the eve of her initiation into the coven, Melica's magic refuses to choose a single element, unleashing a dangerous blend of fire, water, earth, and air that shocks the elders and terrifies the village. Branded, unstable, and cursed, she's denied the place she's dreamed of her entire life. But when an ancient prophecy awakens, and a powerful exile named Varion comes hunting for her blood, Melica is thrust into a dangerous battle between the coven that fears her and the shadowed forces that seek to claim her. Varion offers her power and belonging if she'll help him open the forbidden gate that seals the realm of chaos. The coven demands loyalty, even as they plot to bind her wild magic. With only the animals of the wild as her trusted companions, Melica must navigate betrayal, buried family secrets, and a growing power that threatens to consume her from within. Faced with impossible choices, she must decide who she truly is: witch, shifter, outcast, or something entirely new. If she chooses wrong, both her world and the human realm could fall into ruin. In The Unwanted Little Witch Shifter, a coming-of-age fantasy rich with elemental magic, ancient rivalries, and a heroine determined to write her own story, Melica learns that sometimes the most extraordinary power comes from embracing every part of yourself, even the parts others fear.

I was born in Canon City, Colorado, to Irish/Scottish parents, grew up in Canon City and Texas, now living in Florida for the last eleven years. My first book, "Arkadia a Druid's Tale," was published on March 1st, 2010. I love to write since I was 14 years of age but never thought myself good enough. When I met a man that encouraged me to fulfill my dreams at the age of 32 and still encourages me to move forward with my new works of art. Now I have the sequel to Arkadia and two others published. I hope you all will enjoy them.When I'm asked if I write about myself, I have to sit back and try not to laugh. I was told that since my characters carry my pen name that my readers think it is about me.The truth is, I write under my characters' name since she is the one who is really writing the book. I'm just her instrument of use. The one that allows her to write through me. Now you might think I'm crazy, but I can assure you, I'm just as sane as everyone else. I don't want people to know my real name. Those who do already think I have lost my ever-loving mind.My family seems to think I should write successful conclusions, where the hero or heroine lives happily ever after. Yet that is not me. I want to write about good/evil, happiness/devastation. I want it where my readers are crying with the characters when they are happy or sad. I want them to want to do murder when the bad guy is out to harm another. I want my readers to cheer when the characters finally have a happy time and things have gone their way.That is who I am. The kind of writer I want to be. So yes I hide behind my main character. I use her to keep me safe.
