Pt 3: Reading Self-Published Stories With Kirsten McNeill

  • Résumé

  • Author 1: Tina Capricorn

    Tina Capricorn writes sci-fi fantasy time travel romance. She has two books out currently, Shadowglass Time-Magic, Blood-Magic and The Anchor of Time. When she’s not writing, she’s probably out in the garden, or doing the dishes.

    To find out more about her and her books head over to tinacapricorn.com

    The excerpt I’m reading is from Shadowglass Time-Magic, Blood-Magic. It opens after a time witch Ostra, was summoned through a Blockleiter Bar (a bar for members of the Reich in WWII) and destroyed most of the vampire nazis present.

    Author 2: Stephanie M. Matthews

    Having been raised as an East Coast girl in Truro, Nova Scotia, Stephanie Matthews has spent time living in Newfoundland, Oklahoma, and Italy. She has currently settled in Ontario working for a non-profit organization and writing in her spare time.

    Stephanie’s love of writing came at an early age, drafting her first “real story” in Grade 2. This love has continued throughout her life, as a university professor once accused her of having made a history research paper too exciting. While this accusation inspired an opinionated debate between department professors- from which she gently excused herself, the moment solidified a decision to never take the excitement out of her writing- fiction or non.

    When not writing or working, Stephanie enjoys fueling her passion for Ancient Rome and combatting her arch nemesis: her love of cookies. Stephanie also loves mountain biking, pretending like she can play hockey, or planning her bucket list, for which she had to come to the harsh reality that time travel is not an option.

    Her excerpt is from Book 1 “The Gift”. A supernatural thriller set in a Christmas wonderland. It’s an addictive story about hidden truths and one woman’s journey to survive against overwhelming darkness.

    Author 3: Laura Westman

    Laura Westman is an ontological coach and multifaceted creative who cares deeply about creative joy. She is the author of How to Be Creative in the Age of Digital Noise, a singer/songwriter, co-host of West of Wonderland Podcast, and the host of The Creativity Broadcast on YouTube. Laura loves being moved by art, but also being inspired by the effort behind the art. Her life is led by her core values of appreciation and joy.

    Her fan fic I’m reading isn't published yet. To read more, hop on her newsletter at www.laurawestman.com for the announcement.

    This fan fiction explores the world of Remus Lupin as he navigates being a werewolf, in secret. Inspired by the author's experience having an autoimmune disease, Remus's experience of being a teen wizard is remarkably different on a physical and emotional level than that of his peers.

    This is a story about Remus's connection with himself and his true nature. It's also an ode to the teenage antics of the author, as (non-canon) American witch Laurel Witherby transfers from Ilvermorny to Hogwarts in her sixth year. Away from the normal trappings of her life, family and people-pleasing tendencies, Laurel finds new confidence, power and ambition as she chooses life in Slytherin House.
