Instructed in the Wiccan path by her mother and father, Abigail is a solitary Witch and very accomplished for her young age. After her mother’s sudden death leaves her feeling isolated and alone, she finds solace in the art of witchcraft and dedicates herself to the study of the Old Ways.
Between her father’s new girlfriend and being caught in a love triangle with her childhood friend Vic and fellow witch Erica, seventeen year old Abigail finds herself growing quickly dissatisfied with her life and the world. Seeking comfort, she reclaims her mother’s extraordinary antique bed as her own, hoping the energy it holds will help ease her pain. But Abigail soon discovers that the bed contains a ghostly power that wants more than just to help her.

My book is published!
I’m very excited about this. I have wanted to be a writer for as far back as I can remember (well, at first I wanted to be an eagle, but that didn’t work out). I wrote a short story called “Traveler” about 10 years ago, at the end of my undergraduate studies. For years I let it swim around in my head as something that I wanted to novelize. Then, two years ago, I started writing as part of the NaNoWriMo challenge. 8 days later, I had the first draft of this novel.
Last year I read a post by the new publisher, Jupiter Gardens Press. What they were looking for sounded exactly like this novel. I cleaned it up and submitted it. I’m thrilled to be their first novel and I hope that we are both very successful.
Don’t hesitate; buy now. It’s cheap, it’s a good read, and you totally rock for buying it.
After you buy it, I would love it if you wrote an honest review of it on one of the many places where it is sold (I will supply links later). And, of course, if you like it, I would be honored if you would recomend it to your friends, your blog readers, your enemies, whatever.
