So. Ever have one of those books (series) that it’s the HEART of your HEART?! The one story that if you never published anything EVER again, you’d be perfectly content? Well, that is what The Droseran Saga is to me. And I’m thrilled-over-the-moon-squealing-Snoopy-dancing excited to announce–IT’S OFFICIAL!!! I have signed a 3-book contract with Enclave Publishing (A Gilead Imprint) for my science fiction (space opera) series, The Droseran Saga. Fall 2019 will bring the release of Brand of Light (Book 1).

  I share this version of our national anthem (below) every 4th. Typically, I don’t like covers of our national anthem, but this one . . . well, it just RAWKS! To me, Madison Rising NAILED the spirit of the anthem and our country with this driving rendition. As a writer of military fiction, I think it mirrors the rawness of the fight for independence and freedom. Their addition of “It’s our future to save…” seems especially relevant today. Do you have a favorite version?
