But first she has to come to terms with her past. She reaches out to two childhood friends who she was in college with: Mac, a hard-drinking, pot-smoking professor of physics and climatology in Wisconsin, and Danny, an introverted college dropout working as a landscaper in Arizona. She asks to set up a meeting with them, and while both men fear such a reunion will wake the sleeping dragons of their collective history, old loyalties, and old fears, propel them forward.

And the Rest Is History…

Nighted

The light fades away,

The darkness creeps in.

The sins begin to emerge,

Immersing and drowning,

Slowly standing,

Waiting for divine light.

But nothing comes,

Except creatures of the night,

Dark and deep,

Falling into an endless stream,

Never to come back out.

Because when light leaves, darkness prevails.

Pirates’ Pyrexia

“The sins of the Golden Objects of Power come to hunt you.”

This was the warning that was given to those who seek to abuse the powers of these ornaments. They soon found that they were hunted by pirates whose purpose was to retrieve and protect these objects, so these protectors were nicknamed “Sins”. Jon Bon Crim is a member of the Black Ribbon Pirates, and he is a Sin, a qualified doctor, and Medical Officer aboard the steam cargo ship S.S. Elizabeth. He utilises the Objects of Power to grant him immortality, supernatural strength and speed.

Together with his family, operation and sea creatures that share his burden, he travels the high seas aboard tramp steamers and submarines to exotic locations all across the planet of Besiens. If you are an Abuser, you had better watch your back as the Sins of the Black Ribbon Pirates seek, find, take and hold.

No Name

The poetry collection No Name depicts the path of the heart, and the path of the mind, through the images of the Deer, and the Wolf. These two paths, along with the symbol animals that illustrate them, are very different at first sight. The mind divides, and the heart unites.

Through the eyes of the author, however, the Deer and the Wolf are both magical creatures, and equally dear to her. All symbols that are presented in the book live together and represent wholeness.

And although the author reveals the message that each of the two creatures wants the other dead, there is one subtle voice intertwined in the story that insists that both the Dear, and the Wolf should remain alive. You can hear this voice while embracing the journey yourself.
