Hi everyone! I hope this gets some attention even after I posted this at 11pm.

My YA fantasy book "The Book of Mossy: Secrets" is finally available for beta readers. What does this mean?

That means YOU get to read a copy of my book BUT there's a caveat. You have until the end of March to finish it and complete the form at the very end. You will only have access to commenting on the document as I have already chosen my people to have editing permissions. This is a volunteer thing and I do need dedicated readers. The story is young adults, aimed for readers 13-17 but I want an adult audience as well that love YA. I am NOT writing GoT, LotR, Wheel of Time, ect. There are rules on the document before you get to the story.

If you have read that last paragraph and are interested or know anyone interested in being a beta reader, please let me know and I'll send you a link. DO NOT share that link with ANYONE as I need to keep track of my beta readers.

Alright, what is this book about? Here's my blurb.

Young Mossy Sorelu has never truly belonged.

Living as a half-breed bipedal feline among dragons and their masters, the Daso Verta, Mossy lives quietly in their shadows. She scrubs their halls, assists in their trainings, and runs errands for her Master, careful not to draw too much attention to what makes her different.

But when Mossy accidentally stumbles upon a forbidden gathering, her fragile place in the world begins to crack.

Hidden beneath an unassuming weaver’s shop, a gathering of Daso Vertas are meeting in secret led by a blood-drinker known as a Dralil whose very existence is treason. Among the attendees are faces Mossy trusts including her closest friend, Fox, a half-fire dragon with secrets of his own.

If Mossy reports what she’s seen, she could become a hero but at the cost of her friends’ lives.

If she stays silent, she risks being drawn into something far darker than she realizes.

As whispers of trouble in the city stir and loyalties fracture, Mossy must decide who she is and who she is willing to become.

In a world where brute strength leads and heritage determines worth, Mossy’s greatest battle may be with the ones she loves most.

A coming-of-age fantasy about identity, belonging, and the dangerous allure of being told you matter.

Below is a picture of Mossy and Fox because I don't have a book cover yet, as I'm saving up to commission one.

She was the only child. She was given love and attention, care and safety. Then, she was given a sister. They were loved, warm and had each other. They were their Master's students. Then one night, a Sehktet was brought into their lives. Then everything went haywire.

Many years later, Willow was the student and Mossy was the help. It still seemed like Master Sapphire favored the cat child over Willow.

Then, an older boy came to her. He knew a place where Willow could be given the love, attention and guidance she desired and craved. It would just come with a small price.

For the record, her wings look like that because she had just sprouted them. This period in every Daso Vertas life is called "New Wings" (equivalent to teenager)

It's FINALLY here.

I'm sorry about the wait. I was getting over a BAD URI.

Ugh, so I'm getting over an illness that left me exhausted and in pain for 4 days. The Daso Verta Dossier will be up by the weekend. It's a good one and any help or critique would be great!!

In the meantime, here's my 2 year old forever kitten, Socks.
