NEW BOOK PROJECT: BOOK II OF THE SELIMA AND THE MERFOLK SERIES, CORALLIAN

New BookThis week we have two consecutive holidays in Trinidad and Tobago, today is Corpus Christi and tomorrow is Labour Day. Luckily, I do not work on weekends, so I’ll be home for four straight days. Among the projects I hope to begin/complete, I will start writing the second book to my Selima and the Merfolk series, which I have tentatively named Corallian.

SATM is in production at this time, I see no reason to delay writing the sequel since I would like to have it completed or at least in the editing stage by Christmas. My ideas are fresh in my mind, and my fingers are ready to type, and quite frankly I need a distraction.

So, just as with SATM I invite you to join me in book II of my writing journey.

My grandmother told me my second mermaid story. She said that in the forest, there was a river where a girl found a beautiful comb. When she combed her hair, she got terrible migraines. As soon as her grandmother saw the comb…
