“Visiting family around the holidays is a lot like going on safari.”
“How do you figure that, Nurse Peggy?”
“Easy. Observe wildlife from a safe distance and you might learn something valuable. But get a little drunk and wander too close to the animals … and you’ll probably be eaten alive.”
“Then every holiday is like a safari, Peg. Only, at my house, it’s best to get drunk at a safe distance and then eat EVERYTHING!”
“Just as I suspected, Paula. Safaris at the Deen house, indeed. Kenya has nothing on you.”
“Of course Kenya hasn’t got anything on me. I never said one word about that nice rapper or the oily little gal he married — the one what likes to get peed-on. Never! I’m innocent. I swear. Lord, I hope the media doesn’t launch another witch-hunt. I can’t take a public relations disaster this year!”
“I swear, woman, you need to spend a year with the people of Angola.”
“Angola? But I already know her people, Peggy. Angola worked the salad station in my kitchen for twenty years. Lovely woman.”
“Did I really used to share a network with this individual? Really?”

Book One = The magical cornerstone – a lavishly illustrated epic narrative poem … a genuine “spell” for the young and young-at-heart to treasure for a lifetime, telling the story of sorcerer Rowan Blaize’s battle to regain his magic powers. (Think Beowulf-meets-Dr.Seuss or an epic story-in-verse of a scope similar to Tolkien’s soon-to-be-released The Fall of Arthur, only contemporary.)
Book Two = The rip-roaring novel that continues the adventures of Rowan Blaize and introduces the three hilarious witches of the Ancient City, along with its dysfunctional werewolves, wraiths, ghosts, vampires, dryads, banshees and a beauty pageant brat that just might destroy the world.
Book Three = The next novel that finds Rowan trapped by a spell in another world, caught between a faery-squashing sorceress who’ll stop at nothing to conquer the kingdom … and a feisty teenage prince who’s determined to get it back.
