The novel "Demon of Annwn" is still on schedule for electronic release as an e-book this coming August 1st. We are very excited about this project. Here is a very brief introduction to the novel:
When an immortal evil is evoked in a small New England town to destroy an ancient bloodline Arianrhod Danann and her lover risk more than their lives as they draw on the secret rites of two legendary cultures, those of the ancient Egyptians and those of the Celtic Druids, to defeat it.
After the brutal murder of her Grandmother, Arianrhod returns home only to be thrust into a world of witchcraft and black magic. There she must choose between her life in cosmopolitan Boston, or assume her birthright as the head of a clan of sorcerers whose ancestors escaped the Salem Witch Trails.
Descended from the mythic Celtic race of the Tuatha de Danann, Arianrhod is plagued by erotic memories from a former life in ancient Egypt. Through the combined magical systems of these two vastly different cultures the evil may be confronted. To do this she must decide whether to follow her heart and the man she loves or perform the ancient sexual rite of the 'Dream' with the man she recognized from her life in ancient Egypt. Only this ritual can bring together the forces needed to defeat the shape-shifting demon who stalks her and threatens all of Whitewood.
"The Demon of Annwn" draws from actual occult practices as it weaves a spell of murder, seduction, and love in a fast paced and exciting story.
Please watch this blog for details on how to order this when it comes out.

This week's update!!! July 10, 2011
Trying to get the free shortie prequel (Covenant of the Cauldron) done before the first book in the Banriona: Queen of the Witches series, the Demon of Annwn is released on August 1st, but not sure if that is going to happen. We're about half-way through the book and we are trying to keep it reasonably short which is getting difficult. Sometime in the future it will have to be a bigger book. So when Covenant of the Cauldron (the prequel) gets out - that date is still in the hands of the Gods . . .
We have everything done for the first book in the series (The Demon of Annwn) except the cover. The artwork that has rights I don't like and the stuff I'm finding that I do like, I can't find the copyright holder! Artists that I like are booked or just doing certain publishing houses. And, like everyone else, we're on a tight budget. Very annoying.
If anybody has any suggestions, I have a pix or two that I like the style for some guidance, let me know. Even a student or someone breaking into the art field I would entertain. The series is in a contemporary setting with Celtic and Egyptian magic threads and of course the first book has a shapeshifting demon. We are into the second book of the series already with plans for the third. So if we find an artist, and as we really like this story line, we could be talking quite a few covers over the next few years.
