Fantasy

Date Published: October 1, 2025

Publisher: Phenomenal One Press



Penelope Pawn had an addiction. She liked candy, sword-fighting shadows, and boys. Still, something was seriously wrong and she couldn’t put her finger on it. Being homeless wasn’t as bad for her as it was for most. She had a way of collecting kids that turned into family, like brothers and sisters. Unfortunately, every time another kid agreed to come with her to the hiding place she’d created, a rush of power would surge through her like she’d consumed a drug, sealed a deal, or done something wrong. There was one guy, though, who wouldn’t come. When Terek showed up at her doorstep, a place well hidden from most others, and demanded she heed his warning, it was the first time she feared an enemy's strength. Was he a challenge that could become her savior, revealing the truth of her past to her? Could this boy show her how to repair the fiber of the world she’d unknowingly ripped apart, causing a catastrophic end to the home she’d built for herself and the lost ones?

 



Interview


Is There a Message in Your Novel That You Want Readers to Grasp? The main message conveyed in Lost is that there is always a way to fight for your answers, your freedom and knowing yourself is the start.

 

 

 

Is there anything you find particularly challenging in your writing? The challenge I find is in slowing the scene down to build up the world, the character’s feelings while pacing the action.

 

 

 

How many books have you written and which is your favorite? I’ve written twenty-two books. My favorite, oh gosh that is hard. Purgatory Reign was so fun to write and still is the series of my heart since it’s loosely based on a story my husband wrote for his creative writing class.

 

 

 

 

If You had the chance to cast your main character from Hollywood today, who would you pick and why? Storm Reid has the look and mannerisms of Peppa. She would fit the role in looks and voice.

 

 

 

When did you begin writing? I used to write when I was a teen, then stopped throughout college. I started back in my thirties because my son said he didn’t like reading anymore because the characters were so different than him and his friends.

 

 

 

How long did it take to complete your first book? My first book only took three months to write. However, it was over a year of editing before it was ready for beta readers.

 

 

 

Did you have an author who inspired you to become a writer? L.A. Banks the author of the The Vampire Huntress Legend Series. I actually got to meet her in person while starting my second series.

 

 

 

What is your favorite part of the writing process? I enjoy experiences the new and exciting places my imagination takes me. The escapism is my favorite part.

 

 

 

Describe your latest book in 4 words. Adventure, strength, family, redemption.

 

 

 

Can you share a little bit about your current work or what is in the future for your writing? Lost is the first book in the Misfits series. The series starts with Penelope (called Peppa) who is trying to find herself while saving other runaways. Her story is the beginning of the solving of a mystery that is a spin off of my Vigilant Series. Lost is also an altered version of Peter Pan with many twist that will share a different perspective of the power welded by beings that can lure those kids that are in need of connection to worlds that are sinister in their beauty. Peppa discovers herself through loving others. I am currently writing the next book in the series named, Frigid.
