THIS YEAR HAS BEEN far from ordinary. It started out with a roar, but has faded into a sigh. As I write this, I am grateful to be right here, experiencing, witnessing, and evolving with humankind. I hope at the end of this year, pandemic, trauma, etc. we are all more compassionate, kind, and united because as cliché as this has become, we really are in this together.
I first outlined this book back in 2017, while I was finishing my Theia’s Moons series. It started with just Zoe Dawn and Kia Lynn, then in 2019 I added Alex. I needed the third elemental and she fit snug and tight into the story. Writing their journey during the Covid-19 pandemic seemed fitting, since I felt like I was living in a dystopian world. Now it is complete and I am thrilled to share it with my readers. Thank you for showing up and diving into this story with me!
My family has been a solid rock for me. Between my surgery in January and then holding space for me while I recovered and wrote this story, was a gift. They are my lifeline and I am grateful that I have such an amazing support system.
Thank you to my editor, Angie Wade from Novel Nurse Editing. I love your saucy humor that makes me laugh while working through your constructive feedback! I appreciate all the work you put into my manuscripts. Once again, you have helped me sculpt a story I am proud to call my art.
I want to give Niki Ellis Designs a big round of applause. Thank you for seeing my vision and creating a fantastic book cover for this mystical dystopian world I created. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with you!
Finally, to my fans, readers, followers, and all who have supported me on this road. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I would not be here if it weren’t for you. Cheers to many more years of entertaining you with my imagination!
