roots squares square-roots
Square root of a cosine? How is that ever going to be useful?
love-to-read
Like most authors, I also love to read.
cutting two firsts
The first two chapters of any first draft generally need to be cut.
eye reflection fire
No - the light in Tamani's eyes was much more than a reflection. It was the fire that melted her anger and devastated her resolve, every single time she saw it.
illusion should ends
At the end of 'Illusions,' readers should see the inevitable coming.
love forever asking
I'm not asking for forever, Tamani said. Yet. I'm just asking for a moment.
selfish love-is self-love
But love is something that has to be as selfish as it is unselfish. You can't make yourself love someone because you feel like you should. Just wanting to love someone isn't enough.
mom mother broken
As far as her mom was concerned, tea fixed everything. Have a cold? Have some tea. Broken bones? There's a tea for that too. Somewhere in her mother's pantry, Laurel suspected, was a box of tea that said, 'In case of Armageddon, steep three to five minutes'.
reading too-much fantasy
Guess I've been reading too much fantasy.
believe views people
There's always someone who secretly believes in myths and legends; or at least parts of them. Those are the people who will look beyond the obvious and see things in this world that are truly wonderful... But they won't say anything, even if they do. Because the rest of us who view the world as logical and scientific wouldn't see the truth if it was posted up on a billboard.

book thinking wings
Before 'Wings' came out, I told a few people that at the end of book one, readers should think Laurel made the right choice. Then, at the end of 'Spells,' they should understand why Laurel made the choice she did.

I love music, singing, and playing piano (though I'm not very good). And I adore musical theater.

I am a gym rat who loves to work out, particularly running, Zumba, yoga, cycling, and kickboxing.
