Fantasy author/illustrator, Wars of Light and Shadow series.
Joined November 2009
Just discovered your work, but wow, it's a sparkler! On my favorites list, that fast. Never stop writing!
#FantasyIndiesNovember 4: Inspiring authors Many authors have inspired me. One has been @JannyWurts. We are of similar age and she recently published the final novel of her life work series. We both come from similar fantasy roots. I've watched her career from afar for decades.

Where Realm of The Elderlings helped me stand up again after a time of pain, Wars of Light and Shadow was one of the prominent forerunners is helping me stand PROUD and better than ever. To those of you who haven’t started or aren’t done know this- every word is worth it.

Thank you - nihilism, to my mind, is the enemy of love. It endorses the concept of powerlessness and demands giving up, giving in, which in turn, leads to giving over. Never.
And make no mistake this story is the absolute pure enemy of Nihilism. The true and genuine love this series portrays, amongst men and women alike is beautiful yet realistic. And there are not enough words to say how much this series means to me.

This book requested something of me I had never thought to do. The climax of this book is unreal. It requires that you, the reader, must understand yourself. It asks that you rewire your brain because this story tells you just how much power is in your hands. The power of choice.

You are a thousand times welcome! Thank you for giving the series a shot, and for sharing your enjoyment!
In April of 2024 @jajminton mentioned an author. Her name is @JannyWurts. John and Jakob mentioned a magnum opus she was ending the next month called The Wars of Light and Shadow and on a whim I picked it up. I had absolutely no idea what I was in for. (1/?)

Worst thing to step on in the dark, today's folks think it's legos. They never have experienced stepping on jacks.

Paravia studio shop had a small impasse due to a software update - if you tried to purchase the Wars of Light and Shadows short fiction, or a print, and hit a wall, that is FIXED! Thank you for your patience.

This. Books need to be read Brand New, the ACTUAL context received in good faith Without Expectations. Author: trust the reader. Reader: trust the author. Distortion mars the impact. UP FRONT, every book will not hit, and IF it rubs wrong: that is your personal overlay.
The more I think about it, the more I find this to be true about the reader-writer relationship: Reading a new book by a new author is like going on a first date and a successful date requires genuine interest from both sides. A writer worth your time is confident, passionate,
