"I'm new to this. Do you have any advice?" For more than twenty years, YA author and freelance writer Victoria Perkins has been navigating the writing world, from teaching to publishing to conventions, and the number of times she's been asked some form of this question has only grown. With so many books out there about how to write perfect plots or the secret formulas to sales, she decided to put together a more generalized book that answers many of the common questions she's been asked, covering everything from the differences between plot-driven and character-driven writing to the legalities of AI-generated art, from common writing mistakes to suggestions about what to take to events. If you've ever had a writing question you wanted to ask someone who's been there, this is the book for you.

They have no way of knowing that the crash was no accident and that, if they ever want to get home, they'll have to face dangers far greater than the elements.

A forbidden world referred to as The Firelands thanks to nuclear, chemical, and biological warfare. That sounds like exactly the sort of place Adonai should send a dozen homeless, winged, teenage soldiers. While none of this ever makes much sense, something tells me this new mission could destroy us.Tempest Black and her bonded, Bram Grimm, are still working through what their relationship means when a series of events threatens to tear them apart.Book three in the Star Riders series finds the Qaniss in more danger - both physical and spiritual - than ever.
