Ta-Da!
Baby chapbook is here!
WINGS OF MORNING
by Katharine Eliska Kimbriel
published by YARD DOG PRESS
ISBN 1-893687-67-8
http://www.yarddogpress.com/wingsof.htm
Tales of power and magic often speak of transitions. Magicians pass from day into night, from dark into dawn—they stand on the threshold of change and cast their spells. The stories we usually tell about our heroes are the flashy ones, the calling of the lightning tales, the riding of the storm saga, the splitting the earth and swallowing the enemy whole adventures.
Wings of Morning tells about two heroines, both capable in their own ways of pyrotechnics, but this time learning lessons of subtle power. Anthropologist Brenna Stewart discovers that you can neither run from nor dictate to magic, while young Alfreda Sorensson of Night Calls and Kindred Rites learns that the power of life and death may be the greatest authority of all...and that magic may have nothing to do with it.
Best of all, the black and white cover is lovely, the best YDP chapbook cover I've seen--Chris did a great job, his first paid gig.
So, for you Allie fiends out there--here's something to keep you busy while I try to heal and write. (I've wrapped two of them as new mom gifts, to be delivered this week.)
I can still write! Yay!

Ah, but I'd started to wonder...the LBb has changed my thought processes, and just the act of turning this fragment into a real story took focus I was no longer sure I had.
Now, slowly trying to plan a book in a new way--since the old way is taking its time returning.

Shorter work has kept me sane--and feeling like a writer--through quite a few times of not writing/selling the longer stuff.

And the next scene of the next Alfreda book. It's just very odd, how it's coming out...

Re: slobber slobber
When it used to dominate my existence, and then it slowly vanished.
Doubts do creep in, oh, yes, precious, they do...
