She Vanished Once...Now She's Back.

Some stories refuse to stay buried. Years ago,  The Shape-Shifter's Wife  found its way into readers' hands, and then, just as suddenly, it disappeared when my publisher closed its door. Since then, I've heard from readers asking where it went, if it would return...and the answer is finally yes. The Second Edition is now up on Amazon as a Kindle Presale, and will be released September 10, 2026. This isn't just a reprint. It has been carefully re-edited, refined, and brought back to life with the help of an exceptional editor--making the story stronger, sharper, and more immersive than ever. If you enjoy time travel/romance, and metaphysical fantasy, I think you'll find something here that lingers long after the final page.  I wanted you to be the first to know this story has returned, and I'd love for you to be part of its new beginning.
 I'm excited to announce I have been adding to my Youtube channel. Check it out at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYQDuedUfm9A4PxeUlMuUDg?view_as=subscriber Fascinated by the Tree of Life, so I have a video where I explore my favorite oaks, and discuss the ancient trees being mysterious and being a balance between the spiritual world as the branches reach to the heavens and the roots toward the material world.  In the Tree of Death video, I discuss my almost drowning in the Russian River and how it influenced my writing. I am slowly adding hiking videos. Nothing gets me as charged as going into the woods and exploring.
