Star Magic is the Best Magic
Magic is in the air.
Can you feel it? I couldn’t feel it for quite some time. My creative juices dried up for a while and I couldn’t focus on anything writing related. Health issues, COVID, working the day job; they all contributed, but last month I told myself enough was enough.
In an attempt to reboot my writer energy, I attended the Novelists Inc (NINC) conference at St Pete beach. NINC confer

Hi Karen,Thank you for having me as your friend. Much appreciated.
Rick
Hi Karen! Happy Thanksgiving! I'm starting your books this weekend!
Thanks for accepting my friend request!!:D
Thanks so much, Rachmi! I'm excited about sharing with you!
Hello Karen, thanks for accepting my friend request. Can't hardly wait for Taking Back Forever!
Aww, thanks, Nereid! Hope you enjoy Tangled Tides. :)
Hi Karen, thanks for accepting my friend request. Now on to read Tangled Tides. :)

Thanks for the add. I really enjoyed Grasping At Eternity and can't wait for the next one. :)
Thanks so much, Brooke! :)And Rachael, I just saw your comment. Yay for Florida authors! :) Best of luck to you too. :)
Thanks for accepting my friendship! I am really looking forward to reading your book. Will start it next week :)

Rachael

Aww, thanks so so much, Holli. I'm glad you enjoyed it. :) That means a lot to me. I'm working on book 2 right now, so kind words like yours really helps keep my spirit lifted. I hope you have a wonderful New Year.
Thanks again!
Karen, I just finished your book last night and I wanted to tell you it was AMAZING (to say the least). ;) I really enjoyed it and am sooooo looking forward to book two!
Awesome. I will check out more of Hayley's work. :)I can't say much about book 2 but I will say that Vienna is in it. ;) I'm so glad to hear that Rownan is your fav. He's rarely a fav, but he really is such a great guy.
Karen wrote: "Alicia, Love it! :) and the girl in the video is very similar to how I picture Vienna to look. ;) Thanks for sharing!"Thats Hayley Westenra, she's the artist and has such an amazing voice. look at all her albums, her music is in general very soothing and helpful for focusing when writing. I hope you have Vienna in the next book, I was extremely curious about her when she's mentioned in the book, Rownan is really probably my favorite character.
Alicia, Love it! :) and the girl in the video is very similar to how I picture Vienna to look. ;) Thanks for sharing!
So when I listen to this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K0CqH... I see merfolk and selkies swimming, mainly in Rathe. It makes such a lovely background music/setting of it all to me.
WHAAAAT???? I'm so excited, but I don't really understand. Was this ad online somewhere?
I DO like the Beatles. :)I like a lot of old bands and music.
Hi Coral, I'm sorry I didn't reply to this sooner. I just saw it.
Yikes! Hope you're okay! Maybe it's time for a vacation and some fresh air.
Hey! Thanks for finding me here! Hope your weekend is great!
Hi Angel!Thanks so so much! *blushes* I love that you loved the summary. :)
I will def take you up on the book review. Thank you for offering. I will be in touch soon!
