First Plane Trilogy

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. Sibling Rivalry I loved my sister with all my heart, but there were times like these when I hated her, too. I tried very hard not to allow the reality of being Syd’s little sister weigh on me, but it was so difficult when my entire life was about scrutiny, either from those who couldn’t wait for me to screw up, or from my family who watched with barely-concealed concern. Everyone waited for me to crack under the pressure. The next person who compared anything I accomplished to what Syd would have done was going to perish in flame and agony. Meira might sit on First Seat, but her initial four years as Ruler haven’t been as easy as she thought they’d be. Thanks to her father’s new policies, Meira’s power has been diverted away from Ruler and into the hands of her Second Seat and grandfather, Henemordonin, as well as the greedy and grasping court of Demonicon. Struggling to regain control while being constantly bullied and tormented, Meira faces a fresh concern—a cult of mysterious demons has risen in the outer planes, preaching love and peace, finding followers where no religion has ever succeeded before.

Xeon's reaction wasn't what I expected. Though the crowd around me spun to stare and glare while Tanasharia and her posse

of cronies faced me down, the Planeless leader smiled with his benevolence, waving me forward.

"Allow her to pass, my children," he said. "Let Senne Hathenemeria join us in celebrating the freedom of our people."

We could fight our way out. Sassafras's nervousness wasn't making things any easier.

No, I sent. Let's see what Xeon has in mind. If worse comes to worse, I can call Syd.

Maybe we should anyway, Sass sent. She and Max appearing overhead might create enough stir we can escape.

I strode up the path opening in the wall of demons, calling out to my sister. Of course she would be out of reach,

wouldn't she? I shook my head at Sassafras who scowled back. The followers of Xeoniteridone turned to face me, eyes

locked on me as I proceeded with as much confidence as I could muster. By the time I reached the edge of the stage, my
