Hello everyone! As some of you know I’m working really hard on the final edits of my second novel. It’s consuming a great deal of my time and I’m finding it difficult to keep up with everything else I need to do. Soon I will be able to share a few excerpts from the first installment of my Fantasy Angels Series so that you guys can give me some feedback on it. I would love to read your reviews. In the meantime, I will continue to make my book the best it can be. Today I will leave you with a few writing quotes and some fan art by illustrator George Miltiadis. Thank you for all the support and I will be back with more short stories and articles as soon as I’m done with the editing. Love you guys! ❤

“I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know these fascinating characters and their world.”

Her ruthless ambition for power and recognition led millions of angels astray

“Powerful and believable characters that live and breathe.”
I wasn’t sure what I’d done to deserve such a wonderful gift, and I wasn’t sure if it was insolent, but I thanked God for fallen angels.”
― Jamie McGuire, Providence
I don’t know where people got the idea that characters in books are supposed to be likable. Books are not in the business of creating merely likeable characters with whom you can have some simple identification with. Books are in the business of creating great stories that make you’re brain go ahhbdgbdmerhbergurhbudgerbudbaaarr.”
― John Green
“You don’t really understand an antagonist until you understand why he’s a protagonist in his own version of the world.”
― John Rogers
“The only characters I ever don’t like are ones that leave no impression on me. And I don’t write characters that leave no impression on me.”
― Lauren DeStefano
The Fall of Lilith
(Epic Fantasy with elements of Horror about angels)
The characters in this story are angels depicted in a very unique way. It is a story of many twists, surprises and a bit of controversy.

“The Fall of Lilith is an amazing story! It’s a fascinating reimagining of mythical events. I especially loved the vivid descriptions. The magnitude and beauty of heaven and earth is conveyed so well –– and the horror of the fallen angels suffering. The characters are also nuanced and fascinating.” ~Elizabeth Stock (Editor)

Hi Alana! So far so good! It’s just a lot of work. My original manuscript was over 160,000 words. I’ve brought it down to 140,000 words and now I’m finishing the final edits. I’m excited about the way it’s turning out and so is my editor, which is always a good thing. 😀 Thank you so much for always being there for me. I hope all is well with you and your family. How is everyone adjusting in Scotland?

Good luck on your edits! Remember to take breaks as you go — otherwise you end up like me, where I completely forgot to eat one day, and then around 5pm I stood up and almost fainted because I was so hungry. Also, love the illustrations!!!

Hi Michelle! Oh my! Ha,ha! That happened to me too! I got in the zone and forgot to eat and go to the bathroom! Ha,ha! When I got up everything hit me all at once. You’re right, I started to take little breaks after that, but you know the feeling–once you start you don’t want to stop. Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the illustrations!
