Produktbeschreibung

A Cinderella story about a clockwork doll who wishes to rule the world, a spinster stepsister who longs to study horology, and a prince who wears a mask to conceal his lack of scars. The problems all started when Una made me a glass slipper. It was larger than hers, large enough to fit my foot and a good enough duplicate that the King's Court wouldn't notice. "I may need your help if the prince comes looking for me," Una was helping me as she made her request. She was always helping me. She was always working. Una, polish the doorknobs. Una, take in this bodice. Una, clean the fireplace. How could I say no to such a small request? I did not expect a prince so covered in crape and velvet that I could only catch a glimpse of humanity in the gaps around his mask and the slits for his eyes. Who was it that she wished me to marry in her stead? "You both like to read, you both spend a great deal of time in solitude, and you both like wearing disguises," Una reassured. Yes, I would play my part.

Autorenporträt

I am a writer of poetry and short fiction. I live in Seattle with my husband and two toddlers.

After exiting my vocation (Social Work) to care for my children, I discovered that I suddenly had a lot of things to say.

Most of my writing is available at no cost on my blog, listed below. I have just finished my second Smashwords exclusive book (!).

Writing is my whim and secret joy. So, lean in and let me whisper to you; the funny, the beautiful, the absurd.
