BLURB
Ripped from her family at the top of Infinity Cliff, Kimi McKenna finds herself thrust somewhere into the future. Dark elements threaten to destroy the earth unless Kimi can work together with the white witch to stop the destruction. Confused by her mate’s role in the conspiracy, she refuses to acknowledge the connection. But amidst raging fire and attacks on the people she is coming to hold dear, she allows Maska O’keefe into her heart.
Maska O’keefe has loved the beautiful shapeshifter for years. Unable to save her life years ago, he vows to watch over her as he is given a second chance to convince her that even though he is a witch and not a shifter, they are indeed soul mates. Kimi’s divided loyalties between her family and the cause she is now a part of will determine their relationship. Only the part she plays as the messiah can bring this to a conclusion in the final battle.

PUTTING IT OFF or Getting Put Off?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
A question like this makes me think of my novel “Hezbollah”. I wrote this about a fictional rock band based on the people, places and things that happened during the time of the SPOILER during the Punk Revolution. It’s an action/adventure novel that went through three major evolutions over three decades. It went from an action/adventure novel in the Nineties to a postmodernist tale in Y2K, and is now a women’s fiction novel in the 2010’s. The storyline didn’t change much, but as you can imagine, it spun like crazy.
In the Nineties, it was born on an electric typewriter and was completely edited and reviewed by a cottage publisher in San Antonio TX. The owners, a husband and wife, thought JRD was the greatest thing since sliced bread. The novel, not so much. They had friends who warned them not to go for it but they left it up to me. I decided to hold off, and procrastination put it on the shelf for a few years.
Upon arriving in KC MO after Y2K, I sold it to a Canadian publisher who also said it was a great piece of work. Only he conned me into buying into his promo plan, and didn’t sell a single copy after stealing my money. Great lesson learned at considerable cost. I demanded and got the rights back, but not the money.
Finally I self-pubbed it, and so it sits again. I consider it a testament to the NYC Spoiler, and know after I’m dead and gone there will be Millenials reading it for free on Kindle, saying, “That character’s my Grandpa!” and “That must be Grandma!”
Moral of the story? When your work is done, PUBLISH NOW or forever hold your peace!!! Or your regrets will give you no peace.
