What happens when your quiet life is upended after werewolves take over the woods behind your house?

Then, a gang of human vigilantes escalates matters. And their leader has Karina pegged as an informer.

Tomorrow, check out writer Sarah Burr Nichols’ #BookLaunch & #signing of The Bridge to Nowhere. It’s an eerie tribute to Northern New Mexico and the Gorge Bridge just outside Taos, yet with the warmth of discovering resolution and loveβ€”in spite of the #hauntings.

Do you have little ones who love bedtime stories? β€œPoems for Bedtime” is a sweet collection of short, fanciful rhyming poetry by Scottish writer Jean M Macdonald.

This is my Mom’s first book! Published by Roswell Publishing, it’s available globally on Amazon.

First layout of Mom’s β€œPoems for Bedtime” with illustrations arrived via email this morning, and of course I got all misty. It’s beautiful, with 100-plus-year-old art capturing the dreamy mood of Mom’s #poems. I hope little readers find it just as enchanting. β™₯️Thanks @roswellpublishing.bsky.social!

β€œDarling,” I whisper to my invisible yet doting husband from my cozy reading nook, β€œIs that *hail*??”

β€œWhy yes, my love,” he responds, looking like Pedro Pascal and also sounding like him as well.

And the hail stings my nose as I check outside and drop my phone.
