What Else You Should Know About Them:
What kind of geeky goodness will you be bringing with you to the next Geekery Market?
I'm bringing copies of all of my fantasy books and possibly my dog books for younger shoppers. I'm also working on some bits and pieces like special bookmarks and other things that make the gift of a book even more special.
What's an item you are bringing that you are really excited about?
The latest installment in my Guardians of Orana series, Hero, comes out over the summer and will be available in paperback and hopefully* special edition hardback. *I am forever at the mercy of printing and binding. But, fingers crossed!
What else would you like everyone to know about your wares?
I write books with flawed yet strong female characters and powerful found family vibes. I am very character driven, and love to investigate how language and culture can influence the interactions between my characters.
If you could travel anywhere in space or time, real or imagined, where would you want to go?
No question. I would go live in my Orana Chronicles story world. Until I can, I would go back to my second home, the UK, and live in Edinburgh.
Come see them live at The Geekery Market on Saturday, November 9, 2024 from 10am to 4PM at the Cabarrus Arena & Events Center - 4751 NC Highway 49 (Event Center B). The event is FREE to the public, but we are requesting a donation of canned goods or cash which goes to our charity, Second Harvest Metrolina.
