She knew the way all the women in the kitchens whispered about her, the way they eyed her, as though they were any less familiar with the concept of earning one's daily, albeit stale, bread. It was no different than anyone else anywhere else she went. - my WIP, When Morning Comes #WIPSnips

My favorite one to answer this for is probably Henry in Be. Everyone thinks he's impulsive & doesn't think anything through, but the truth is he often does think things through. He just sees things differently & values certain things more than his own physical safety.

Robyn from A Dance of Bow & Blade can be incredibly patient when it comes to certain people & certain situations. She can be known to weigh her options carefully, but her friends wish personal safety weighed a bit more for her. When her temper flares, though, she can be known to jump into things.

Oh, and then there's this gem from my Seven Years Love WIP: The character who will die if she touches the ocean almost launches herself over the side of the ship to save a stowaway she's not too happy having on board to begin with from potentially drowning.

Finished the newest character art for A Dance of Bow & Blade!!!

2/2- Day or night, they have the ability to vanish & reappear anywhere on the ship they want. They can interact with people & inanimate objects if they wish, but not vice versa. I'm still working on the details, but that's pretty much what I have so far.

1/2- Seven Years Love WIP: The souls of pirates who died at sea who are bound to a set of skeleton keys to work the pirate-witch's ship. Their appearance reflects the state of their bodies at the bottom of the ocean. They have the ability to be invisible during the day if they want.

Robyn in A Dance of Bow & Blade is not normally one to take orders. As leader of the outlaws, she gives orders to her friends, which they don't always follow, except when it really counts. Art, on the other hand, is queen, but often feels like she's playing dress up, even when she does it well.

"It takes a lot of fortitude to set aside one's pride for the needs of their people. That, at the very least, deserves our respect. We have the means to help and extending an open hand might get us further than a closed fist." - A Dance of Bow & Blade

Always! While A Dance of Bow & Blade is with beta readers, I'm working on When Morning Comes (book 4 of the Be Series), as well as Seven Years Love (pirate witch story), & dabbling with 200 Years (book 2 in Uncanny Encounters Series)!

I wander the halls looking for doorways that might lead me to my ghosts. I press my ear to the closed wood like a seashell whispering "home." I open it only to find that all consuming darkness. - Where the Heart Is #vssdaily Paperback, ebook, KU: www.amazon.com/dp/B0DJWSGDTL/

For the first time since she could remember, she could feel the start of a seam, mending the tears in her. She let Elsbie be her needle and thread. She let her take care of her. - my WIP, When Morning Comes #WIPSnips

In one particular scene of A Dance of Bow & Blade, Robyn mocks knights by peppering Art with an inordinate amount of progressively ridiculous questions with scarcely a breath anyone else can get in edge wise. #AwesomeCharacters

This is really cool!

Why some dreams take longer than a lifetime.

Each knot and tie represented a person. Someone in a moment of shedding all bulwarks and pretenses. Someone vulnerable. And even when all other life faded, when the land itself laid fallow, but a memory itself, what endured most were people's hopes. - A Dance of Bow & Blade #WIPSnips

“Curiosity, as you’re well aware of, is not a very welcomed nor admired trait in the world I grew up in. You learn quickly not to ask questions.” Again, there was that same weight to Art’s words. “But curiosity does not always simply leave." - A Dance of Bow & Blade #WIPSnips

On the day democracy won the Nobel Prize, here's what else went right in the world:

“The title & arrow are yours.” “I'll take the title.” Robyn leaned up on her toes, mischief dancing in her eyes, all the more for the enamored sparkle she swore she found hidden in the queen's ever-so stoic ones. “But I want something far more precious.” - A Dance of Bow & Blade #WIPSnips
