Did you know about this snow monster in the mountains?

Hey Dragons!

If you’re following me on Facebook, you might have seen the announcement of the latest Kickstarter I’m in.

I’m part of an anthology featuring various authors in a fairy tale, folklore, and fable reimagining.

My story is Peach Samurai, a disgraced samurai who is cursed by a mystical peach seed and is faced with the ultimate choice: allow himself to fall into corruption or kill his people.

We met and exceeded our stretch goal, but you can still provide a late pledge if you want to grab the books at a steep discount.

Yokai Of The Week: Yuki Onna

This ghost is a really cool one, pun intended.

Yuki Onna literally translates to snow woman, which is what they are. They appear young and ageless which gives them an ethereal beauty about them.

They spend their lives primarily in the mountains, where there are heavy snowstorms, and they hunt after humans. You’ll sometimes have stories of houses having their windows or doors crash open and the blame falls on Yuki Onna, hunting the humans in the cold.

However, they aren’t as dangerous as other yokai because they can fall in love with humans and sometimes have relationships with humans too. However, this only lasts so long until the human realizes it’s a snowwoman, and one or the other kills the other.

If you’ve read Purchased by the Oni Lord, the main character is actually part Yuki Onna herself and uses her snow powers later in the story to protect herself and the Oni Lord from danger.

Fire and Inferno

The choice that started it all.

Two years after the battle at Heartheim, Kalindra’s heart remains restless. As protector of balance, she has yet to glean new information on the Elemental Aspects. Meanwhile, trouble brews among the kingdoms of men and geans, as political allegiances shift, and the value of Dracomancers is diminished due to Kalindra’s choices.

Evolution is just beginning.

Rina, Kalindra’s dragon companion, is changing too quickly for her understanding. Not only is her body growing in size and strength, her knowledge and thinking ability is evolving beyond what is normal for a dragon of her younger generation, causing her to be shunned and feared by her peers.

Danger has come.

Yenderen, Kalindra’s mentor, returns from a diplomatic expedition to Sil’derel Academy, but his return heralds disaster. Battered and wounded atop his dragon Braxenar, he warns of an incoming wave of attackers from Sil’derel Academy. The demidrake shares his fears with Kalindra: That Academies, and the history around them, are a sham, and the once-proud protectors of Balance have become infatuated by their own power.

As the battle is waged on Iclindir, the question remains in Kalindra’s mind: Who, or what is behind the attack on the Academy?
