Even villains were kids once, though most people, by now, know that Darth Vadar was born Anakin Skywalker. I like this image because, aside from being cute, there’s a sense of hope in it. Obviously, something went wrong along the way, but there’s always a story, told or untold, that explains it all.

Anyone could be a villain; people don’t set out to be bad or do bad things, but circumstance can sometimes change faster that we are able to process and deal with them. In the Eternal Curse Series, there is always a reason why someone is either good or bad, but sometimes it is not so clear as to whether someone is good or bad. Sometimes, heroes are seen as villains and villains are seen as heroes, at least in all the really good stories, the truth eventually comes out and all is explained, even if it’s not all better. I cling to this idea as I continue to write my EC series…it truly doesn’t take a genius to see where and how I’ve been influenced by this story and others, if you just read between the lines of my book.

Here is approximately 100 – 150 words from a randomly selected original piece for your enjoyment. These samples can include excerpts from my all my WIPs and my Eternal Curse Series, but only as works in progress (not the final products). These samples of published and unpublished works are protected under the U.S. Copyright agreement.

Eternal Curse: Giovanni’s Angel chapter 4.3 (wip)

Mira removed her glasses; she pushed her hands up into her face, swept them up over her hair, and then took a deep breath. She folded her arms in front of her chest, looked back, and then forth between Giovanni and Abraham several times quickly. Abraham was a mystery to her and a little creepy in a sweet way, but seemed harmless. Giovanni, on the other hand, looked like he could stop a bar fight just walking through the door, yet he too seemed safe enough. He seemed to always be so subdued and to have a constant cloud of sadness around him, which Mira looked upon as a silent screaming out for help and understanding. Mira didn’t know why she was there with these strange men and their strange stories and mysteries, but she’d decided to stay.
