Arkadia, a Druid's Tale

About this ebook
As we made our way through the city to the center, where Belialz said would be the place to call for the Dark Lord, something inside me seemed to come alive.
I ran to his side, and with my father’s scimitar in hand, I saw Adonys come to stand at my side as we tried to help Belialz fight this demon, yet neither one of us was as strong as the Paladin who stood toe-to-toe with the monstrous beast.
As Luna took me to the battle site, I watched as Belialz fell to the ground; afraid that the Dark Lord was still alive, I ran to Belialz’s side, trying to heal his wounds just as Moonstar had shown me.
When you are gone from this world, where am I supposed to turn to find the love that I still yearn for?” I waited for the answers to all I wanted and needed to know.
It was not by coincidence that Steve sent you to hear my story,” Athinia said as she watched the sun coming up out of the sea and saw Belialz coming around the corner of the small cottage with Adonys and Luna at his side.
You had torn a rift between our worlds, the night you and your friend thought you could use magic to bring you, true love.” Belialz told me.
I need the help from your world and mine to stop the new evil that reigns over our lands,” Athinia said as she turned and watched as I admired the beauty of her world.
“Sophie, if you look, you will see that you have the gift to bring forth life to both our worlds at your feet,” Athinia said.
As I glanced down, I saw that as I walked in the World of Arkadia, the ground beneath my feet had started to spring to life with flowers growing around them with every step I took.
You see, this is not where our tale ends, for it is said that when you opened the rift between the two worlds was, the Dark Lord of the mist came to life and sought the one that was preventing him from gaining what his brother truly desired.

I was born in Canon City, Colorado, to Irish/Scottish parents, grew up in Canon City and Texas, now living in Florida for the last eleven years. My first book, "Arkadia a Druid's Tale," was published on March 1st, 2010. I love to write since I was 14 years of age but never thought myself good enough. When I met a man that encouraged me to fulfill my dreams at the age of 32 and still encourages me to move forward with my new works of art. Now I have the sequel to Arkadia and two others published. I hope you all will enjoy them. When I'm asked if I write about myself, I have to sit back and try not to laugh. I was told that since my characters carry my pen name that my readers think it is about me. The truth is, I write under my characters' name since she is the one who is really writing the book. I'm just her instrument of use. The one that allows her to write through me. Now you might think I'm crazy, but I can assure you, I'm just as sane as everyone else. I don't want people to know my real name. Those who do already think I have lost my ever-loving mind. My family seems to think I should write successful conclusions, where the hero or heroine lives happily ever after. Yet that is not me. I want to write about good/evil, happiness/devastation. I want it where my readers are crying with the characters when they are happy or sad. I want them to want to do murder when the bad guy is out to harm another. I want my readers to cheer when the characters finally have a happy time and things have gone their way. That is who I am. The kind of writer I want to be. So yes I hide behind my main character. I use her to keep me safe.
