About

I am a retired high school English teacher. A devourer of books growing up, my profession introduced me to writings and authors from times long past. Through my studies and teaching, I fell in love with the Ancient and Medieval Worlds. Now, I hope to inspire young readers and those Young-at-Heart to read more through my Quest Books set in these worlds.

You can find me on Carpinello’s Writing Pages (http://carpinelloswritingpages.blogspot.com) where I interview other children/MG/Tween/YA authors. My home is at Beyond Today Educator (http://www.beyondtodayeducator.com). At The Quest Books (http://www.adventurequestbooks.com), I’ve teamed up with Fiona Ingram from South Africa and Wendy Leighton-Porter of Abu Dhabi to enable readers to find all of our Ancient and Medieval quest books in one place.

Description

Ascending Voice is a collection of love, loss, vulnerability and healing. The book speaks of self-love while finding the way through the lotus, a symbol of life. There are fifty journal pages at the end of the book to encourage any feelings that come up to be expressed. This journey of poetry and inspiring prose includes affirmations, mantras, and Dear Self letters. This book is for anyone who has ever been lost or through dark times and wishes to be inspired.

Story Behind The Book

I always wanted to live in Medieval England and would love to meet King Arthur. When I started thinking about this story, I wanted it to be different from the stories out there. I didn't want to include time travel or some other magical way to transport readers to medieval Wales. I wanted my readers to wake up in medieval Wales so they would feel like they were actually there. It is my hope that I have done just that!

Reviews

<div> “Pull out those swords and slide into your armor - can one slide into something that bulky? - Doesn't matter because this story will still feed the fantasy of children…” “A Timeless Story of Courage and Loyalty” “[T]he feel of ‘The Goonies’ mixed with ‘The Young Riders’ but set in the time of King Arthur instead…Like a non-romancey chapter out of ‘The Princess Bride.’” “[A] wonderful introduction ~ to King Arthur, and to the lives of knights and others in a castle…” </div>
