Introducing My Hunter Character

I submitted my fairy tale retelling to Beyond the Bookery. Hip-hip-hooray!

Everybody do a happy dance. 🙂

Another character bio is here, and it’s on the significant male character in my Red Riding Hood retelling.

Yes, I do have a huntsman in my story. Actually, he’s a prince, too.

Prince Deverell is of the country Lusanda. He’s fourteen years old, and like the people of Lusanda, he has the inborn ability to fly, as well as shoot fire and wind from his hands. Assigned by Elohim (the Supreme Creator God of the world), he hunts for monsters created by the alchemist, who’s intent on harming the weak and helpless.

Introducing My Red Riding Hood Character

I’m close to submitting by Red Riding Hood story, you all!

The official publishing date is March 3rd, and it’ll be in an anthology from Beyond the Bookery. Hooray!

In the meantime, here’s a bio my main female character, who’s the Little Red Riding Hood character, of course:

Thirteen-year-old Nan is an orphan who lives with and works for Madame Ethel, an innkeeper in the country Bueron. She’s kind, smart, and a problem solver. She has a physical disability that slows her gait, and when trekking through the woods, she needs a walking stick. Having a prideful streak, she likes to show she can do things herself. She loves reading and dogs, and she can shoot a crossbow (as long as her legs don’t wobble underneath her).

Notice Anything New on This Website?

I added something to the menu. No, it isn’t a dinner menu, ha ha. It’s the menu of this website. It says, “Bonus Story.”

There you can sign up and have chapters of my new book emailed to you.

A Book Theme . . . And a Movie

As I continue sharing with you my Red Riding Hood retelling, I’ll ask a question: What is the theme of my story? Or a theme, anyway?

Let me stall in answering by talking about a movie I’ve just seen.

I watched the movie version of Phyllis Reynolds Naylor’s Shiloh.

What I Have Been Doing . . . And a Fairy Tale Retelling

In the meantime, something definite is happening. Another story? Yep, and it’s a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood!

I’m going to be featured in an anthology from Beyond the Bookery called Of Dangers and Dreams, and my story will be friendly for teens and tweens.
