Hello, and thanks for stopping by my booth!
I write children's and young adult fantasy, and will be giving away e-copies of my award-winning first novel, Ennara and the Fallen Druid.
The Ennara Series follows our young heroine Ennara and her friends, two boys and a giant cat, as they adventure across the world of Lan to stop the Fallen Druid and his nefarious plans. Themes touched on in the series include teamwork, responsibility, and compassion. And, of course, there's plenty of magic, mythical creatures, and fun!
The first two books of the series are available, and Ennara's third adventure is expected on Halloween, 2016.
