Skandar and the Unicorn Thief
Soar into a breathtaking world of heroes and unicorns as you’ve never seen them before in this fantastical middle grade debut perfect for fans of the Percy Jackson and Eragon series! Skandar Smith has always yearned to leave the Mainland and escape to the secretive Island, where wild unicorns roam free. He’s spent years studying for his Hatchery exam, the annual test that selects a handful of Mainlander thirteen-year-olds to train to become unicorn riders. But on the day of Skandar’s exam, things go horribly wrong, and his hopes are shattered…until a mysterious figure knocks on his door at midnight, bearing a message: the Island is in peril and Skandar must answer its call. Skandar is thrust into a world of epic sky battles, dangerous clashes with wild unicorns, and rumors of a shadowy villain amassing a unicorn army. And the closer Skandar grows to his newfound friends and community of riders, the harder it becomes to keep his secrets—especially when he discovers their lives may all be in graver danger than he ever imagined.

Witness to the Pain
Children who grow up in homes characterized by parent on parent abuse don’t suffer from domestic abuse, they suffer because of it. I refer to these children as domestic abuse survivors by proxy, a term I coined to describe this specific population. In short, survivors by proxy experience abuse simply by virtue of being in and around abusive environments. Their symptoms mimic those experienced by the primary survivor (the spouse targeted by the abuser) even though they were not the intended target of the abuser. In addition, survivors by proxy experience symptoms specific to their role as a witness to abuse.
