Winds of Change

About the Book

"I could blame all this on my grandmother. She’s the one who sent me to this place without even a word to warn that I would wake up in the middle of an arid plain with the sun literally cooking every inch of exposed skin. Because of her, I was chosen to succeed the current chieftain of one of the four ruling Cities of the plainspeople who inhabit this parched world. A decision that has resulted in a war I have no hope of surviving. I might be able to negotiate a surrender before the allied territories raze my City to the ground. But what kind of choice is that? A surrender would mean my execution, and I am definitely not ready to die . . ."

About the Author

I truly believe I was one of a fortunate few. Not many aspiring writers get the opportunity to learn their craft from an actual published author. I learned from two. One of whom – the generous and talented Joan Hall Hovey – was reviewed and called ‘. . . [a] female Stephen King . . .’ by Rendezvous Magazine. That’s high praise, from anyone. I would like to think some of that ability was passed on to me. When I was little, I discovered talent. But a lot of kids have talent. Later, I developed skill. Now, it’s fi nally time for me to start building from that foundation.
