When influential women of the west contract the Wraith Riders of Arkenheim to help them defect to the east and seek the protection of the Lianshi, their escape goes horribly wrong, nearly resulting in the death of the Vordoshan Konigar. The rulers of the west are forced to take action that will have dramatic consequences for the Lianshi and her fledgling empire of women. 

REVIEW: Captivating! "This is a brilliant page-turner that makes you dive into the fantasy world easily. Captivating plot with lots of twists and horrible scenes will grab you from the first pages. I absolutely fell in love with charming Francesca (she was named Lianshi by the Dravin upon her arrival in the World of the Lianshae) and beautiful and brave Margot, the Wraith Rider of Arkenheim." ~ Ellen Khodakivska (Goodreads, Facebook)

Of course I’ll hurt you. Of course you’ll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence, means accepting the risk of absence.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

I had a writer's group I belong to ask us to describe rain without using the words "rain" or "water."

This was my reply:

"I blinked and the world disappeared for a moment. When my eyes opened, the moisture once again collected in droplets that ran down my face and into my eyes. I pushed my hair back, damp and stuck to my forehead as I forced what ran into my mouth out by forcibly exhaling through closed lips. And then it happened. For just a moment, it covered my eye like a sheen of crystal and I saw in the distance the end of a rainbow. There, seated upon his throne of gold, was a leprechaun who had not yet noticed me."

I believe we all have a social responsibility to both provide oversight on our system of governance and to agitate for change when necessary. I also believe that we share a responsibility to help raise the lowest among us and commit to not leaving anyone behind if we truly wish to remain a great society...because we are losing that battle. That is why I became an activist in both social media and in my writing. Too many people today suffer from what I refer to as "willful ignorance." I define this as a desire to believe a convenient lie rather than address an inconvenient truth. Because when we accept a premise at face value, we make it an individual truth whether it is true or false. It is only by keeping an open mind...being mindful that we are all of us fallible...and hearing dissenting views that our own arguments become stronger and our actions more effective at addressing the difficult issues we face in the world today..
