Well kids, it's official, I am now a published author! As I say in my about the author, I cut my teeth here on Althanas and I'm so excited to say I've made use of all I learned. In case you missed the blurb and cover:

3434


The world is a pretty straightforward place. Even for medium Sara Stone things seem pretty simple, aside from the whole talking to spirits bit. But when the spirits get too hard to handle and Sara ends up admitted to a mental hospital, the world starts to seem a lot less straightforward. First her family disappears, including her four year old son. Then she gets the sneaking suspicion that not only are the staff at the mental hospital somehow connected, but they also have no intention of ever letting her leave the hospital.

Everything changes when Sara has her first visitor in three months. Daniel is handsome, friendly, and a complete stranger. When he promises to spring her from the hospital and swears that everything she's experienced is completely real, Sara has no choice but to believe him. But once she reaches a run-down Victorian house in the tiny Alabama town her rescuer calls home, the last thing she expects to discover is that every memory she has is a lie.

Daniel reveals a world filled with angels, demons, and an impending war humans know nothing about. Sara wants to ignore her role in the whole mess – all that matters is solving the mystery of where her son has gone. But the forces of Heaven, Hell, and the Heart have other plans for her. Can she find her child before the world comes crashing down?

Where can you find my book to purchase? Well it's available in a few different places: Kindle (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MU3PSES), Nook (http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/at-deaths-door-astrid-v-tallaksen/1120165219?ean=2940046334890&itm=1&usri=2940046334890), Apple iBooks (https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/id910324345), and also in print (https://www.createspace.com/4899281). I'll probably also come up with a way to get autographed copies if there's enough interest.

Any burning questions? Comments? Emotional outbursts?

Thank you guys so much for being awesome!

Am I ever going to come back? Maybe... I've considered coming back so many times. In fact, when I started this book, it wasn't intended to be an entire novel. It started out as a writing exercise to get a feel for writing fiction back in my system, and then got out of hand. Now it's three books long (yes there will be sequels to this one). I wouldn't even know where to start if I returned!

Fantastic! :D

EDIT: and I'd suggest getting back into Althanas with a solo, but it seems you's pop out a book :p Why not just do a catch up thread with twol oldies?

It would depend on the oldbies who would want to catch up. I think a lot of the people I used to write with consistently (whose styles meshed well with mine) probably aren't around anymore.

I didn't know where to start. Now I'm in over my head. The characters still fell right, so that's something.
