About

I have always loved stories!  When I was very young my father used to tell me stories to keep me entertained when we traveled, even if it was just on the bus ride to the zoo.  When I got older, my mother (bless her) coaxed me away from the television and into reading by offering to pay me two cents a page of my picture books!  Well, of course I was hooked before I'd earned enough to buy a pack of gum, and when I got older I realized that not only could I fall in love with stories created by others, I create my own stories to fall in love with!  September of 2008 brought the culmination of a lifelong dream when my first novel, Homesong, was published by Vanilla Heart Publishing.  My second novel, Still Waters, will be out this summer.  Now that I am finally telling my own stories, I hope you find yourself falling in love with them!

Description

<h2>Taliesin Weaver thought that he had saved himself and his friends when he defeated the witch Ceridwen. He was wrong.</h2><h3><i>He always thought of evil as embodied in external threats that he could overcome in combat. Soon he will discover that the worst evil has been inside of him all along....</i></h3><p>Tal’s girlfriend is in a coma for which he holds himself responsible. A close friend, suffering from a past-life memory trauma similar to Tal's, is getting worse, not better. Morgan Le Fay is still lurking around and has an agenda Tal can’t figure out. Supernatural interruptions in his life are becoming more frequent, not less so, despite his expectations. In fact, Tal learns that something about his unique nature amplifies otherworldly forces in ways he never imagined were possible, ways that place at risk everyone close to him.</p><p>Tal and his allies must face everything from dead armies to dragons. As soon as they overcome one menace, another one is waiting for them. More people are depending on Tal than ever; he carries burdens few adults could face, let alone a sixteen-year-old like himself. Yet somehow Tal at first manages to handle everything the universe throws at him.</p><p>What Tal can’t handle is the discovery that a best friend, almost a brother, betrayed him, damaging Tal’s life beyond repair. For the first time, Tal feels a darkness within him, a darkness which he can only barely control...assuming he wants to. He’s no longer sure. Maybe there is something to be said for revenge, and even more to be said for taking what he wants. After all, he has the power...</p><p> </p><h2><u>Can Tal stop himself before he destroys everyone he has sworn he will protect? Scroll up to buy a copy and find out!</u></h2>

<font size="2"></font> <p>&quot;I received <em>Homesong </em>as a Christmas gift from my niece with the promise that 'it is really good, you've gotta read it.' She was right. I couldn't put it down, but at the same time not wanting to read so fast that it ended. The story of love lost and then found again touches the heart of every romantic and a bit of mystery placed just right keeps the reader riveted to the pages. All the characters are realistic and interesting. I am very impressed that this is Misha's first novel. She is a gifted writer and I wish Misha continued success with her future novels. Misha Crews has been added to my list of favorite authors.&quot; – Gail Kobialka</p><font size="2">&quot;I have to say that I'm having a ball reading this novel! I absolutely love it and don't want to put it down. It's taking all my will power to read it only when I should be reading! <em>Homesong</em> is a very well-constructed story, it's believable fiction with believable characters. The book does not come across as the 'first novel' of a novice; Misha Crews has writing skills comparable to experienced authors in this genre.&quot; – Cynthia McIver </font> <p>&quot;I literally could not put <em>Homesong</em> down. I finished the whole thing in one day! It is exactly what I look for in a book: compelling and uplifting. The characters are alive. Misha Crews has a gift for telling a great story. She keeps you riveted. This is an absolutely wonderful story!&quot; - Mary Ellison</p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></font><font size="2">&quot;I had trouble putting it down. I am duly impressed! There is a lot of intensity to <em>Homesong;</em> lots of mystery and questions, even though you know that everything has to turn out alright. And in the end, it all comes together! Whew! I hope that Misha is working on her next book. I think her readers are going to demand it!&quot; - Linda Konzik </font> <p>&quot;Weeks after I finished <em>Homesong</em>, my thoughts kept going back to Kate and Reed. The characters are so alive I felt as if I've known them all my life. <em>Homesong</em> is a wonderful blend of romance and mystery. God has certainly blessed Ms. Crews with an amazing talent for weaving an intricate web of suspense and intrigue. Move over Nora Roberts and make room for Misha Crews.&quot; - Phyllis Sersen</p> <p>&quot;Misha Crews has created a saga that seeps into the reader's soul. It is at once a tale of youth and innocence and first love, of ragged and mellow elder years, and of the time between. Crews takes us through the endless drama that is life with seamless ease. She draws out people's lives in a thorough yet gentle way, reminiscent of storytelling on languid summer nights as she wraps the listener in a strong, gentle voice. She knows where she's taking you, with twists and turns along the way, and leaves you knowing you have made friends for life. I cannot wait for her next book!&quot; - Helen Collins</p><font size="3" face="Calibri"><font size="3" face="Calibri"><span></span></font></font>
