Amazon Reviews for Segolia: Daughter of Prophecy
GWR says, "I enjoyed Segolia it was well written and a fun story to follow. I like the
style how it was writen from the perspective of the different prespectives. It
is great for pre teen to adults."
R. Brinkerhoff says, "I really enjoyed reading this book, even though I don't typically read very much in the juvenile fiction fantasy genre! The author's use of multiple first person narrative was so interesting, and satisfying...I liked being able to experience what each of the main characters was thinking and feeling individually. The author was able to accomplish this while keeping a steady and pleasing flow to the story line. So impressive that the author is a recent High School graduate! I enjoyed the fact that this book is a "clean read", and that it contains elements of romance, suspense, action and adventure. I think that both adults and youth would enjoy reading this book!"
S. Draper says, "It is so refreshing to find a great book that is uplifting, creative, and entertaining without all the unnecessary foul language or suggestive material that many books have these days. The characters were easy to connect to and I loved the way the chapters were set up. I found this to be a wonderful read! My teenage daughter is reading it next, and I know she will love it. I highly reccommend this book!"
Susie Smith Book fan says, "This is a great book. Very interesting and a fun read. I love that it is something that even my preteens can enjoy as well as my older teens. Thanks"
THANK YOU ALL!!!!

Day 2: Author Fact
The author of Segolia (me) screams epiphany at the top of her lungs at random moments whenever she has a new story idea, or an idea to add to an old story.

Day 3: Segolia Random Fact
Fact: Originally, Segolia was going to begin hundreds of years after the prophecy had been fulfilled.
Day 5: Segolia Quote
"There are things that I've done that they don't like. That's just how it goes. You cannot always please the world. Don't worry about them." -Edgeshifter
Day 6: Random Segolia Fact
Fact: Segolia has been a work in progress for four years. By the time I had fifty pages written, it was all lost in a truck fire/explosion.

Day 14: Sneak Peek
"Who are you?" I said, wishing my voice didn't sound quite so weak.
"Can you not guess?" asked the shadow. He was just a black form of a man, cloaked in darkness.
I didn't answer, and the shadow man took a step closer. I took a step back but found myself trapped between a wall and the man.
"Stay away from me," I warned.
"No," the man said simply. Then, he lunged forward, reaching for me.
Instinctively, I screamed.

The Countdown Begins
So, Segolia: Daughter of Prophecy will be released 15 days from tomorrow. In light of that, every day, as part of a countdown, I'll post something specifically related to Segolia, whether that's a random fact about Segolia or its creation, a quote, a picture of a character, etc. On July 2, the release date, I'll be posting a short story, telling my story and journey to become an author and how it's just like Nissa's journey.
So, keep reading. Plenty of surprises in store.
