Ronie Droseran Saga Leave a Comment

VOIDS!! It’s the gorgeous COVER REVEAL for SHADOW OF HONOR, Book 3 of The Droseran Saga. Isn’t she beautiful? SHADOW will release June 2022 from Enclave Publishing. I’m thrilled with this cover, as it’s perfect and conveys the right message for this installment in my much-beloved series. It took some back/forth to find the right representation of Isaura for this cover, but I think we finally landed on the perfect model, who is both demure yet strong.

Ronie Uncategorized 2 Comments

TITLE REVEAL!!!! Here it is, y’all!!! Droseran Saga #3, which releases in June 2022 from Enclave Publishing, is titled: ***SHADOW OF HONOR*** There are so many nuances and layers to this story. You might’ve seen over the last year while we were in the agonizing throes (no, really!) of getting a home built, I made a plea with my publisher to let me break book 3 into two parts. Truth be told, I was so worried about word count that I was ready to walk away so I could publish this one on my own and do what I felt needed to be done. But thank God I have an amazing publisher who said quite simply, “Do what needs to …

Kardia Illustration Reveal!

Ronie Uncategorized 7 Comments

ILLUSTRATION REVEAL!!! Look at this gorgeous rendering of KARDIA, the capital of Kalonica and residence of the royal family from the Droseran Saga. Originally when I wrote of Kardia, I had something in mind that more resembled Kensington Palace, but as this illustration came to life, I realized I had it wrong. The royal residence would not be simple, not in Kalonica. Not as the most powerful realm on Drosero, home to centuries of medoras. So, I let the incredible Laura Hollingsworth take the lead and was thrilled with how it came out. You will see much more of Kardia in DAWN OF VENGEANCE as well as the third book. REMEMBER: PREORDER DAWN OF VENGEANCE now and submit your receipt …

VVolt N629 (ret) Seizes Rainbow Bridge

Ronie Uncategorized 5 Comments

VVolt is gone. Our hearts are shattered. Mid-morning yesterday—after he’d eaten breakfast and taken his medications—I noticed he wasn’t doing well. He seemed very mopey, then borderline lethargic, refusing food and water. So, we took him to the ER … and late last night he went into distributive shock, likely from the cancer. The Red Bank Veterinary Staff, especially Dr. Levitt, was extremely respectful and caring—they draped a flag blanket over him as Brian and I watched him leave our sides to seize the Rainbow Bridge. Around 11:30pm, he went peacefully amid our tearful, whispered thanks for his love and his service.   Many of you have heard me say—I’ve never known or loved a dog like VVolt before. It’s …

I’m over here minding my own business, having dinner with my husband–at a restaurant for the first time in six months!!–and my phone starts blowing up … BRAND OF LIGHT won the 2020 ACFW Carol Award – Speculative!! This is the first-ever win with this award, which is special to me for so many reasons, including that I grew up in ACFW as an author, I coordinated the Carols a while back, and–mostly–because BRAND is truly the story of my heart and one I never gave up on.
