The Kemeti are loosely based on the ancient Egyptian and Mayan civilizations, as evidenced by their architecture. They are mentioned in the short story "Wood" in "Five Elemental Dragons: Cycle One" as neighbors of the Shinwai. The Kemeti feature heavily in the sequel to the "Five Elemental Dragons" Cycles, "Shadow of the Goddess" (Summer 2012).

"Five Elemental Dragons: Cycle One" now available on Smashwords.com!

Free PDF download of sample chapter: Tales of the Elemental Dragons (Huo, Fire)

In celebration of Chinese New Year, readers can get a glimpse of my newest short story anthology, Tales of the Elemental Dragons. In Chinese cosmology, there are five elements (as opposed to four in Western myth): earth, metal, fire, wood and water. This anthology will include ten stories, two for each element. These stories are interconnected, and serve as an introduction to my upcoming fantasy series set in a land like ancient China.

The link is here: http://writermum1.yolasite.com/pdfs-of-novels.php

Once the set of ten is complete (hopefully by Wednesday) and on Smashwords.com, I'll announce it on my blogs (Eighth Shot of Espresso, I Gotta Write! and the IGW Facebook page, plus my Asian-inspired blog, The Brocade Box). The short story collection will be *free* to download for 2 weeks, then after that time, it will cost $1.00 to download.

In the meantime, enjoy this sample chapter!

Touch of the Flu and some Catch-Up...

Sorry for my relative absence last week...it's flu season and guess who got bitten by the bug?

On the good side, I managed to get some writing and art done. On the bad side, this means I have a LOT of catch-up to do. I'll be back-posting a few things, and try to get back on the daily posting run this week.

A few housekeeping things:

Admin Post: New art e-book now available from Smashwords.com

"Women in Color" celebrates women in paint, pen, and pastel. I collected some of my favorite paintings and drawings of strong heroines. Soldiers, mothers, dancers...girls can grow up to be anyone they want, no matter what color, creed or race they are. Each piece of artwork is accompanied by a short commentary outlining the creative processes behind it. 

Here's the link: http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/109808 and it's $1.25 to download.
