About

When I was a kid, I never dreamt of becoming a writer. Writing was only something you did because your teachers told you to. I had other dreams. I was going to travel the world and be a missionary in Africa. At one point, I wanted to get a job working for an NHL teams. I was all over the place in my goals and then came the disability. It wasn't out of nowhere because I had struggled with an undiagnosed illness my whole life but I had been functional. 

Soon after college, my illness started worsening and didn't stop until I was no longer able to leave my bed many days. That took me to a dark place. I was feeling hopeless and depressed but the worst feeling was one of uslessness. 

I started to write out of boredom more than anything else and I fell in love. My stories and my characters brought me back from the brink. In my life, I was never really good at anything or even passionate about anything like my sisters were. Now I had my writing. I now have something to work towards; something on the horizon besides endless doctors appointments. I can honestly say that I have never been happier. My body has failed me but my mind has not and as long as I have that, I'll be okay.

There are many characters in Dawn of Rebellion but the most important relationship is between two sisters, Dawn and Gabby. They have grown up as orphans on the streets of militaristic London.

A mix of history, adventure, and love makes this story come alive right there on the page.

Reviews

<p>&quot;I loved it. Dawn of Rebellion is a great story about two sisters who find themselves caught between warring factions in a believable post-apocolyptic future. You really feel like you get to know and care aout them and the young men who join them on their quest for freedom. The revelation about who their fathers is has me excited for book two- Day of Reckoning!&quot;  --Neil</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
