That Awkward Moment When You Have to Explain Your Pet's Geeky Name

9/30/2016

One of Erik's favorite childhood memories is of dad, Den, taking him to see Return of the Jedi when it was first shown in theaters. While Den isn't a huge Star Wars fan himself, he gets that we are. Den is more of a classic comic book and westerns fan. But we think the fact that our kids' 81 years old grandpa is pretty geeky himself is pretty great.

I will be sharing parts of my writing every week (alternating between Arabesque and Persephone) as I write them (with the exception of some parts of Arabesque, which were written previously), so please be patient with any errors you may find, as these are a first drafts.

About the Book

Tatania is tired of living in her sister's shadow but doesn't know about Princess Anna's dark secret. Bound by a sacred oath, Anna's struggles to live a double life that can never be her own.
Described as "Sense and Sensibility meets Ever After with ninjas," Arabesque is full of action, romance, intrigue, and betrayal.

Since I've always been super paranoid, Arabesque was officially copyrighted in 2009. Duplication or use of this work in any other form is prohibited by law.
