for survival against a deadly new virus that has no cure and a cult doing its
best to brainwash me. But when a mysterious note shows up on my windowsill one
night, its chilling message--Run, Wren--launches me out of the frying pan and
into the fire.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Within hours, everything I thought I knew about my life, my family, and my
origins is obliterated, and I'm racking up enemies at an alarming rate. Between
the cult I've just escaped, a violent shifter faction out for my blood, and an
ancient evil who eats "chosen ones" like me for breakfast, my last
hope is to join forces with four dangerous-looking men who claim they were sent
to guard my life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Luke, a werewolf with a rap sheet. Creedence, a lynx shifter who never met a

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">K</span><span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">ite’s breath rushes out, his shoulders sagging with a relief that makes me feel like I’ve done something more important than answer a question. “Good. Keep trusting me, bird girl, and I’m going to show you a whole new world. A world where you can be the powerhouse you are on the inside.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">The backs of my eyes begin to sting, but I’m smiling when I say, “There’s no cure, Kite. I might never go back into remission, let alone get better.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">He pauses, seeming to debate something silently before he whispers, “But then again, you might.” Before I can assure him that hope is a lost cause in this case, he leans down and gently presses his lips to mine and I am the one who’s lost.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">My eyes slide closed as my heart lights up, each warm, sweet brush of his lips against mine making my body fill with magic. Electricity floods my nerve endings and my pulse races so fast I know I would fall over if Kite let me go. But he doesn’t let me go, he wraps me up in his big strong arms, hugging me close as he lifts me off my feet, bringing our lips onto a level playing field as he takes charge of holding us both steady. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">With a soft sob of gratitude for this kiss, this miracle, this moment of feeling like the luckiest girl in Seattle, I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him with everything in me, not caring if I use up all the energy I’ll need to get home. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">I’m always so careful—I’ve had to be in order to keep working and having some semblance of a normal life long after most people with my condition would have taken to their beds for good—but I don’t want to be careful right now. I want to be alive and wanted and on fire. I want to burn with this man who makes me hungry in a way I’ve never experienced before. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">In just a few moments, Kite banishes every teenage kiss and lukewarm make-out session from my early twenties from my memory, leaving nothing but his smoky, sexy taste in my mouth and his campfire and almond scent swirling through my head.</span></div>

She honed her technical writing skills in marketing and consulting but attributes the creative part of the process to her passion for reading. When she isn’t reading or writing, Christine can often be found running, skiing, or hiking. She lives in Newcastle, Washington, with her supportive husband, two avid teen readers, and their energetic wheaten terriers.</span></div>

<h1>
<span style="color: #20124d;"><strong>Author Interview with Christine Grabowski:</strong></span></h1>
<strong><span style="color: black;">Tell us bit about yourself?</span></strong><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;">I am a debut author, and I live in Newcastle, Washington with my husband, two kids, and two dogs. I’ve been fortunate to stay home for the past decade to focus on my family, and in recent years, have been able to carve out time to begin writing more seriously. </span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">Tell us about your debut novel?</span></strong><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;">Dickensen Academy is a young adult book about a girl who is selected to go to a fine arts boarding school. Once she gets there she learns the faculty is hiding an unbelievable secret. Although the book is labeled as a fantasy or a paranormal, at its heart it is a coming of age story set in a unique environment. Autumn must separate from her father’s controlling influence, learn to believe in her own abilities, and begin to stand up for herself.</span><br />
<span style="color: black;"><strong><br /></strong></span>
<span style="color: black;"><strong>Give us an insight into your main character.</strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;">Autumn is a freshman in high school. At the beginning, she has low self-confidence caused by living with a very controlling father who always compares her to her "perfect" older brother. As the book progresses, she needs to learn to overcome her desire to please her father and learn to please herself. </span><br />
<span style="color: black;"><strong><br /></strong></span>
<span style="color: black;"><strong>Is this book part of a series? </strong></span><br />
<span style="color: black;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: black;">I originally imaged Dickensen Academy as the first book in a four part series and completed an outline of the next book. But I ended up writing it as a stand alone and will see if the readers want to continue to follow Autumn’s story throughout high school.</span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">How long have you been writing? </span></strong><br />
<span style="color: black;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: black;">I began writing fiction about four years ago. Prior to then, my personal writing was limited to journaling and writing an annual holiday letter. I honed my writing skills (albeit not very creative) as a marketer, a human performance consultant, and an insurance adjuster. </span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">What do you like best about writing?</span></strong><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;">When I’m in the zone, I lose myself, and the time flies by. As I am drafting a novel, I’m trying to type as fast as I can so I can find out what will happen next.</span><br />
<span style="color: black;"><strong><br /></strong></span>
<span style="color: black;"><strong>Do you work to an outline or plot or do you prefer just see where an idea takes you? </strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;">I’m somewhere between a plotter and a pantser. I always have a high-level outline when I begin, but I usually get so excited to start the new project that I take off writing. The more I write, and the more I get to know my characters, I continue to add details to the outline so ideally by the time I get to that part in the book, I have a good idea of what I need to include in a particular scene. </span><br />
<span style="color: black;"><strong><br /></strong></span>
<span style="color: black;"><strong>How do you keep yourself motivated? </strong></span>
<span style="color: black;">I’m a numbers person. I like to keep track of my increasing (and later decreasing) word counts. When I am drafting, I write the number of new words on a wall calendar at the end of each day. Usually I have a monthly goal (rather than a daily one) since my family responsibilities vary day to day. I tend to overwrite, so when I’m editing, I get the same satisfaction from cutting words as I work down to an appropriate word count. </span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">What’s a perfect writing day?</span></strong><br />
<span style="color: black;"><br /></span>
<strong><span style="color: black;"></span></strong><span style="color: black;">After I get the kids off to school around seven, I write a couple of hours before going to the gym. Afterwards, I write a couple more hours at a coffee shop then come home and walk the dogs. When the kids return home, they miraculously don’t need me, so I write until dinner.</span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<span style="color: black;"></span><strong><span style="color: black;">What do you like to do when you’re not writing? </span></strong><br />
<span style="color: black;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: black;">Hang out with my kids, watch a movie with my husband, hike with the pups, and read when I have a moment of free time alone. Our favorite family activity is skiing in the mountains. </span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">Do you have any specific advice for aspiring writers? </span></strong>
<span style="color: black;">Find a critique group, educate yourself, and immerse yourself in the writing community (local or online).</span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<span style="color: black;"></span><strong><span style="color: black;">What part scares you? </span></strong>
<span style="color: black;">The blank page. </span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">What is the hardest thing about writing? </span></strong>
<span style="color: black;">Like most other flexible, work-from home jobs, it is hard to put it away and not let it interfere with my personal life. Sometimes I find it hard to be present when I’m at home because I always have work to do. As I move forward in my career, I hope to establish better boundaries between work and my personal life. </span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">What surprised you about becoming an author?</span></strong>
<span style="color: black;"> How much of my time is now devoted to non-writing activities, especially marketing. </span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">What part of your writing time do you devote to marketing your book? </span></strong>
<span style="color: black;">As I prepare for the release of Dickensen Academy, I’d say about 65% of my time is devoted to marketing and 35% is devoted to either my work in progress or critiquing others’ works. I’m hoping once the book comes back I can flip that percentage. Since this is my first book, there are also lots of administrative marketing tasks. For example, creating author profiles on sites such as Amazon and Goodreads. Fortunately, once these are done, I won’t need to recreate them for future books. </span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">What do you think of book trailers? </span></strong>
<span style="color: black;">That’s a great question. Ask me in a few months on whether I believe they help with book sales. I honestly hadn’t seen many trailers prior to developing one of my own, </span><span style="color: black;">but since my core readers will be teens, I believe they will be more interested in watching a video than if I was aiming for an older audience. My trailer launched a few weeks ago, and it has been shared all over Facebook and Twitter. You can view it here: </span>

<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">Aside from preparing for the launch of Dickensen Academy what other projects are in the works? </span></strong>
<span style="color: black;">I’m working on a fairy tale reimagining of Sleeping Beauty. I was inspired to do a retelling after reading Cinder a couple years ago.</span>
<span style="color: black;">What are your favorite books? </span>
<span style="color: black;">I have too many to list, but they often fall into young adult, historical fiction, memoir, or women’s fiction. Check out my Goodreads account http://bit.ly/Goodreads-Christine where I have reviewed hundreds of books.</span><br />
<span style="color: black;"><strong><br /></strong></span>
<span style="color: black;"></span><span style="color: black;"><strong>If you could have been the original author of any book, what would it have been and why?</strong> </span>
<span style="color: black;">I’d have to say <em>Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone</em>. I don’t think I need an explanation. </span><br />
<strong><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></strong>
<strong><span style="color: black;">Do you have any general advice to give to aspiring writers?</span></strong>
<span style="color: black;"> Write because you love to write. And then make time for it and don’t give up. Also, don’t compare yourself to other writers; everyone is on their own journey.</span><br />
<h1>
<strong><span style="color: #20124d;">Excerpt </span></strong></h1>
<span style="color: black;">"I feel like there’s something big we don’t know about. Something those students were protecting. I mean, really, why are we here?</span><span style="color: black;">"</span>
<span style="color: black;">I thought it was just me who was confused."Well...the recruiters said we’re creative and focused."</span>
<span style="color: black;">"Yeah, that’s what Principal Locke said too."</span>
<span style="color: black;">"And we have the right personality." </span>
<span style="color: black;">Ben looked up at the sky, sighed then turned toward the forest. "What did he say...something about how it will soon become clear why we’re here, and there’s some ultimate purpose for our creativity?"</span>
<span style="color: black;">"I know. That whole creativity part was a bit bizarre."</span>
<span style="color: black;">He shrugged. "It seems everyone is going with the flow. But I have so many questions." Then he touched my arm to stop me, so I turned toward him. "I’m thinking they’re isolating us for some special reason," he admitted in an embarrassed tone. I</span>
<span style="color: black;"> tried not to laugh—he was acting paranoid. But I didn’t know Ben well. Maybe he was joking, trying to freak me out. Or was he hitting on me? The flutter in my chest moved to my stomach. I was already anxious about being away from home and whether or not I could hack the academics. I didn’t need to obsess about anything else. But I still had to know about Ben’s dream. </span>
<span style="color: black;">"So...I also had a dream about Dickensen before I accepted the offer."</span>
<span style="color: black;">Ben’s head snapped toward me. "You did?"</span>

don’t understand is how the Faes have achieved such loyalty. What did they do?”<o:p></o:p></div>

He chewed his bottom lip as he hopped over a fallen tree

creativity, and equality were being butchered. The Academy was the foundation
of that dream, for desolates, for the people with weaker abilities. For
everyone. The people of Kiero followed Roque because they can’t fear him, they
can only admire him. How brave he was for standing up to his father, for
breaking free of his reign to start his own.” <o:p></o:p></div>

<h2>
<b style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Raleway-Regular, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: none;">The poignant biography of Anita Leslie, the only woman to have won the Croix de Guerre and the Africa Star in WWII.</b></h2>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Raleway-Regular, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 12px; outline: none;">
Anita Leslie (1914-85), best known for the popular biographies of her extraordinary relatives, including Jennie Churchill (Winston's mother) and sculptor Clare Sheridan, was also a most unlikely war heroine. In 1940 Anita volunteered for active service, and by the end of the war she had been awarded the Croix de Guerre for outstanding bravery on the battlefield in France.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Raleway-Regular, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 12px; outline: none;">
While Anita always insisted that everything was "delightful and amusing," her life after the war was clouded by destructive love affairs, depression, and domestic and financial chaos.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Raleway-Regular, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 12px; outline: none;">
This revealing biography describes the complex character behind the sunny facade she was at pains to project. Drawing on copious correspondence, Penny Perrick brings to life Anita's true anguished self: the intense joy she took in her children, her passionate love of Ireland, her career as a writer and the dramatic family squabbling that resulted from the muddled management of the Castle Leslie. <i style="box-sizing: border-box; outline: none;">Telling Tales</i> is a scintillating and poignant account of this flamboyant woman.</div>

Penny Pe<span style="font-family: inherit;">rrick has written biography of Anita Leslie named Telling Tales. Penny Perrick beautifully illustrates the life of a flawed woman. Actually, the many lives of this flawed woman. This was an </span>interesting<span style="font-family: inherit;"> and sometimes not so interesting read. I am back to reading after a while so I was expecting every book to be cool and interesting. This book at some points bored me. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>But then maybe that's what biographies do.</i></span></div>

It depends. If you are looking for a book that is interesting and keeps your interest till the end, then this might not be for you. But if you love biographies and memoirs, then it's for you!!</div>
