A Love Lost

This is not a love story: it’s a tragedy. Radnar and his friends were fun–loving boys, ready to take on the world, but he never wanted to be a warrior or lead armies like his powerful father. In truth, he never really knew what he wanted until he met Nessa the summer before his 16th birthday. From the moment their eyes met, his dark world was filled with light and his bitter heart swelled with hope. In her, he saw his always and forever. Everything changed on Radnar’s Ascension Day when Nessa was forced to leave, and he had to accept his new, terrible powers—and the grip they would have on his life. As fate would have it, Radnar crosses paths with Nessa again years later. Like the first rays breaking through a torrential rainstorm, he sees his salvation creeping above the horizon. Light has been brought back into his life. Only this isn’t a love story, it’s a tragedy … and fate is a cruel mistress.

The Devil's Trill

I saw my death coming. It was staring me in the face through the eyes of another witch, but I was wrong. It’s an easy mistake to make, that your enemies would be the cause. Death didn’t come from the front. It didn’t even come from behind. No, my death came from the person I kept beside me for so many years. My heart-keeper, my savior, my protector, my husband, my killer... Summer may have been the villain, but her story is one of survival and betrayal. Captured as a witch, she’s “recruited” to fight against the technomancers as a secret weapon. Her marriage to Donarick Thames sets in motion a vicious cycle of misfortune when her once-sweet husband starts to grow more violent, but in the meantime, she’s a badass witch who commands netherbeasts. This novella contains spoilers for Sonata, book 2 of Lyra R. Saenz’s Nocturne Symphony. Readers who have not yet read Sonata are advised to pause before venturing further. Additional Warnings: Mentions of rape, torture, domestic abuse, stillbirth/infanticide, and abortion.

Manure

This is not a once upon a time story with fire breathing dragons, aliens from outer space, nor giants climbing down beanstalks. This is a real story complete with bratty brothers, adults who never grew up, and some very ordinary, everyday heroes... and, oh yes, manure. There’s no mistaking it. If you see it, smell it or step in it, you know it. Call it poop, dung, do-do, cow pies, scat, turds – or as your grandmother might politely say, excrement, bowel movement, feces or defecation, there’s only one word for it – Yuck! Even something as disgusting as manure can take on magical qualities that lead to adventures in your own backyard. In the summer of 1942, while the world was at war, Jim Brown Godwin found himself covered from head to toe in manure. This is his story, how he got there, what he did, and – most importantly – how he got out.
