Okay, you know that phase we all went through when we were obsessed with werewolves and everyone and their mother had to write their own version of a werewolf story?

Yeah, this is mine.

Wolf Prints, a two-volume story about a werewolf war taking place right in a small-ish town in Florida. I know that sounds goofy, but it has had its successful days when it was being downloaded on kindle by the thousands, people telling me left and right they couldn't put it down, and even accidentally stumbling upon a chat room where people were talking positively about it (every novelist's dream come true). I will remember those days fondly in an effort to overcome the intense humiliation that comes with admitting my first pretty decent pair of books were band-wagoners. Oof!

A few years later, those days are long gone, as are the raving reviews. Everyone is so darn sick and tired of werewolves (understandably) there is just hardly a market for it now. Not to mention, my youthful inexperience with editing and cleaning up my work left a lot to be desired, as helpfully submitted by several readers in reviews varying between pitiful and scathing. Actually, it started as one maniacally lengthy book, over a thousand pages long, that I severed in half with less care than a more experienced writer would have taken, and then I published them much too closely together, not even giving my readers a chance to grow into them. Just, boom! READ ME PLEASE.

To be frank, one could say that Wolf Prints, consisting first of Treason and her sequel, Revolution, are my first introduction to the tender mercies of the public eye, which are few. Nevertheless, as a writer, mercy is something better left to my family and closest friends; I will never grow in my talent, insight, or understanding if I do not receive accurate and deep opinions from people who read the books without seeing it through a film of their love for me. That means I had to thicken up my skin, accept the help as a positive influence instead of a discouraging one, and learn from my mistakes. Of course, it doesn't hurt to remember that for every terrible online review I received, I also got genuinely pleasing feedback, ten-to-one.

To make a long story slightly less lengthy, Treason and Revolution are the books that propelled me forward as a writer. They revealed my weaknesses and confirmed some of my strengths. I could be happier with the books, yes, as most writers would say of their works; but I can honestly tell you that I am satisfied with what the experience has taught me, and that is priceless -if I may take a moment to abuse a cliche.

So, without further ado, here is the novel of my youth, Wolf Prints. I know, I know, I am supposed to be enticing you to read them, and I really hope that you do! ...I think. But you'll get used to me, honest as little George Washington when he chopped down that fateful cherry tree.
