Things You Might Not Guess About Me


One thing you’d never guess about me is that in reality I break all the rules set out for newbie authors on purpose. I don’t like rules and I am not trying to be a literary author at all. I think putting rules on something creative like writing is a bit silly. No, you don’t need to use adverbs all the time, but I love them. No, you don’t have to have a prologue but sometimes its necessary. I don’t restrict myself when writing or editing. I write what fits the story.

Another thing you’d never guess about me is that I am both an introvert and an extrovert. I am usually reserved when meeting a person for the first time but after that I can be quite wild. I love walking into a room and feeling it for “temperature.” If the tone is depressing and quiet, I walk around talking to people to elevate their moods. I love making people laugh. Nothing other than writing gives me more pleasure.

On the same note, I am a people attractor. Yep, no matter where I go, people walk up to me and start talking. It’s a phenomenon that has been happening all my life. It doesn’t matter if I am in a good mood or a bad mood, people walk up to me and start talking. I always attract attention. Even when my hair isn’t a weird color, and my eyes are normally colored. I’ll be in a store, minding my business and a stranger will walk up to me and start talking about their day or asking my opinion. It’s a drain on my system so I have to go out when I am fully “charged.” Yep. I’m an empath too.

I based the characters in The Witches Prophecy on people in my life or people I knew. Everyone except Xaivier. I had to imagine him as my ideal guy. Trouble is based closely on me. You’re always told write what you know. I know myself quite well. In order to write Trouble, I based her solely on myself. She’s full figured, sarcastic, and sassy. You’re told not to do that as a writer either. In the earlier drafts she has an ex-boyfriend in the book that was an amalgamation of all my ex-boyfriends, but I hated him so bad I wrote most of him out.

One last thing you’d never guess about me is that I love action movies and anime. I love it so much I used to watch it all the time but something funny happens to me when I watch it. When I am watching anime especially, I get so wrapped up in it. Too wrapped up. And when I get too excited about something I pass out. Yep, something thrilling like a karate will be happening and I will get so amped up I will start screaming then I will pass out. It’s happened twice to me. My daughter bans me from watching certain anime. So, no Attack on Titans for me.

Within the shadows, a prophecy-bound assassin emerges, holding the fate of our world in their lethal grip - the key to salvation or the catalyst of our downfall.

Trouble Ferell is your average gun toting assassin, never once caught she revels in anonymity. But she can’t face the demonic force that has come for her. She can no longer trust herself but burgeoning from her is that what you’d call magic. Now, as a sorceress with divine lineage she must face creatures from other realms in a race against time.

Confronting the truth, she must rise to the occasion of becoming the most formidable witch throughout history. She is tasked with banishing abominable entities back to the depths of the Underworld, all while ensuring her own survival.

Pity. It’s on Tuesday.


Read an Excerpt

When Darkness looms, the world finds its hero…

In "The Witches Prophecy," Trouble Ferell, a renowned assassin, yearns for normalcy and acceptance. However, her world turns upside down when she discovers her involvement in an ancient prophecy and unlocks her long-dormant magical abilities. Doubt and uncertainty fill her mind as she grapples with her newfound identity and the visitations of a powerful deity.

With her best friend turned lover by her side, Trouble must confront monstrous beings in human bodies and an impending apocalypse orchestrated by Chaos, an entity seeking her as his bride. As interdimensional gates creak open, Earth dangles on the edge of peril. Trouble must embrace her role as both a Demi-goddess and witch, rallying against her half-sister's ascent and thwarting Chaos's pursuit of the formidable Darkveil Talisman.

In a race against time, Trouble and Xaivier unravel the tapestry of their shared history, hurtling towards an epic clash that pits good against evil. 'The Witches Prophecy' weaves a spellbinding tale, where ultimate victory tips the scales for but one contender. Pity. It’s only Tuesday.
