What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
The concept for Daughter of the Antediluvian World originally came to me in college. I was taking an Introduction to Mythology course as part of a communications minor, and it reignited a long-time love I had for Greek Mythology growing up. So, this story started brewing and – of course – changed quite a bit over time. (Spoiler Alert: There are no Greek gods in DOAW.)
As I started writing I just couldn't seem to get the fantasy aspects of the story to jive with what I knew about the world – I tend to be a very logical thinker – so magic became science. (Because really, aren't they the same thing?) The concept of an action-adventure story really developed as I got a bit older and started doing more traveling. I've mentioned that U have a severe case of Wanderlust – I want to see the world. The places in the book are a few at the top of my list, so getting to research them and visit them through the process of writing the story was thrilling.

A Russian witch steps through her magic mirror. The heir of a voodoo queen makes more conventional travel plans. But why are they headed for Texas?

Book 1 of the Baba Yaga Chronicles, in which she and her sisters confront the modern world, with alarming and comical results.
If you like light-hearted fantasy with offbeat humor, clever plot twists, and quirky characters, read the Baba Yaga Chronicles!
