AHH <3 Its donnneee~ <3<3
This was my little project to get me back into the groove of art on the computer, oh man it was wonky at first!
This is one of my highly favored characters in The Biodome Chronicles, written by the lovely Jesikah Sundin! Her name is Willow Oak Watson, a young lady who has fallen inlove with a very mysterious stranger named Fillion.
She’s a wild and free spirit (reminds me alot of myself sometimes! ;D ) and has a natural beauty that could capture many and her temper and personality will whirl you into her crazy life, it will make you fall in love with her character so much! Shes modest but also a playful person, her faith in her community and family is strong, and she tries to hold on to her family and life so courageously :)
I’m not much of a reader but these books have been an amazing experience and I’m honestly super excited to read the one currently in the works. I salute the strength of the coffee pot jesikah owns, you need props to buddy, us creative minds need the pick me ups!
Back on to the original point of what I was saying (I forgot the blinker on that last paragraphs subject, oops). This book helped me realize that the worlds of games, anime, and real issues in the future we may face can all smoothly flow together in a beautiful story of a futuristic Romeo and Juliet. I highly recommend the books to anyone looking for a enjoyable and wild adventure into the minds of people who life in entirely different worlds than our own but are so familiar its chilling <3
If I get some time in between moving to Florida and work, I may do another character as well ;)
WOW! I’m so moved. Thank you <3 <3 <3 Willow looks amaaaazing! Beautiful work. *blows kisses to you*
It's surreal when the characters of your imagination take shape on a page. What they look like, their quirks, sound of their voice, how they smell...
I'm beyond giddy that Willow Oak and Fillion, from The Biodome Chronicles, have leaped off the page and transformed into story candles *heart eyes* A Court of Candles, THANK YOU so much! These candles are BEAUTIFUL! And, gawd, they smell gooooood! I've burned both candles several times during writing sessions and while reading. *happy sigh*
--Willow Oak-- Lavender • Oak • Sage • Willow Gold & Green
“Lying on her back, one hand on her stomach and one above her head, she watched with blurred vision and a fragile mind as the golden leaves fell from the willow oak growing from the center of the temperate forest. It was the tree responsible for her name. A name signifying that she was the Daughter of Earth."
--Fillion-- Tobacco • Cedar • Rain • Whiskey Solid Black
"Head down and hood up, Fillion dragged on a cigarette and focused only on his boots as they clomped across the damp concrete. Neon signs and holographic advertisements flashed in his peripheral vision. Fingers of light clawed across the wet roads, clutching at the asphalt as the shimmering colors bled into the shadows. Nothing gave his mind peace like walking the city streets. Alone. In the dark."
Check out A Court of Candles Etsy page! "Rainbow" and "Son of Earth" story candles from THE BIODOME CHRONICLES will be added soon, too! <3

My favorite season of all: Autumn <3
(via Interview with The Biodome Chronicles author Jesikah Sundin)
Fantastic interview with SFFWorld! Not only did I get to describe myself in the 3rd person, but I also revealed a snipped from my next book series, “The Last Forest Kingdoms” ;-)
Every so often, serendipitous moments come my way while writing. In this instance, I was perusing poetry on Tumblr, as I often enjoy doing, when I encountered a snippet of a poem by @johnmarkgreenpoetry. The words gripped me, especially as I was in the heat of writing Lynden's novella at the time.
Nervous and shaking with excitement, I reached out to @johnmarkgreenpoetry who graciously allowed me to include the below stanza from "Foolish Manboy," featured in TALES OF AN INCONVENIENT HEART, a poetry collection still in the works. How did I get so lucky?!
His poetry is BEAUTIFUL, often featuring themes of romantic love, healing, and exploration of self-worth. I encourage you to visit his Facebook, Instagram, and Tumblr page. You won't be disappointed!
Thank you, John <3 I am a serious fangirl and thrilled to have your gorgeous words as part of "The Biodome Chronicles" book series.
"Foolish Manboy" is featured in TRANSITIONS (The Biodome Chronicles #2.5): http://amzn.to/1PJtdrG
“A pocket of loneliness transformed into a rainbow of butterflies and fluttered away despite their punctured wings...”

My character, Fillion Nichols, is meeting Nathan Fillion. Oh, and so am I! <3

Amazon * Smashwords * Goodreads
Five weeks after the Great Fire, the village square in New Eden Township bustles with rebuilding activities. Hope begins to flicker as a new future rises from the ashes of deception. Yet for three newly appointed Elements––Ember Watson, Skylar Kane, and Rain Daniels––the many transitions to Project Phase Two expose dark secrets that demand sacrifices. Sacrifices, they discover, that may still destroy the very community they vowed to protect and serve.
Beyond the dome walls, Mackenzie Ferguson and Lynden Nichols refuse to feel powerless as Fillion Nichols stands trial. But, under constant surveillance, control and privacy seem as elusive as hope. Then Mack schemes an outrageous idea to help his friend reclaim ground by using the law to create an opportunity. The very same law, Lynden learns, that places her and Coal Hansen at risk of being forever separated.
A prequel to GAMEMASTER, book three in The Biodome Chronicles, this collection of novellas allows the reader to embark on a journey with Ember, Skylar, Rain, Mack, and Lynden as they untangle truth from lies and rebuild hope after betrayal.

Medieval door with an iron ring handle and lattice windows, similar construction to the homes inside New Eden Township from “The Biodome Chronicles” series.
A reconstructed 14th century cottage made from wattle constructed walls covered with cob and slatted windows.
The residents of New Eden Township in “The Biodome Chronicles” series sleep on beds similar to the one featured above: made from wood, a netted rope foundation, and a straw mattress.
The linden tree (aka lime tree / tilia), was known in medeival Germanic folklore as the “tree of lovers” and a tree of truth. Judicial hearings were held under linden trees as it was believed that the tree would reveal lies.
In other cultures, the linden tree is considered “sacred” and revered for luck, fertility, justice, and for warding off evil spirits. Entire towns throughout Europe were constructed around a central linden tree.
In New Eden Township, when a woman accepts a suitor’s hand in marriage, he carves their initials into the trunk of the linden tree. Wedding ceremonies (handfastings) are performed beneath the heart-shaped leaves, using the ribbons woven around the trunk to tie the hands of the bride and groom.
This 12th century poem about a tryst between a maid and a knight is referred to a few times in “The Biodome Chronicles” series.
Under the linden tree
on the heath
where we two had our bed,
you might find both beautiful
flattened flowers and grass.
At the edge of the wood in the valley,
tandaradei,
The nightingale sang beautifully.
I came walking
to the meadow,
where my sweetheart had come.
There I was received
oh honored woman!
So that I forever happy was.
Did he kiss me? A thousand times!
Tandaradei!
Look how red my mouth is!
There he made
in joyful haste
a bed of flowers for us both,
that must still cause a knowing smile
to those who find it in their path,
and see the spot, where, on that day,
tandaradei,
My head among the roses lay.
How shamed were I if anyone,
God forbid, would know
that he had romanced me!
There we two lay,
but that was known
to none except my love and I,
and the little nightingale,
tandaradei,
who, I know, will tell no tale.”
— Walter von der Vogelweide, “Under the Linden Tree,” 12th century A.D. *
