After a long trip to the Old Country, Callie blissfully awaits the finalization of her marriage contract to a dreamy warlock, the father of her beautiful newborn child. She loves her house, she loves her baby, and she loves her life. What could be better? Except...something's not right. Having a newborn and adjusting to motherhood is a lot, but her frazzled mind is due to something more sinister than post-pregnancy brain. When Callie starts to remember the dangerous secrets she uncovered in the Old Country, she also remembers the stakes. The future of witchkind depends not only on her recovering her memories from the golem she entrusted them to, but also revealing the plans of one of their leaders. Gregorio Andromedus is a man Callie once trusted, her mentor and teacher, and the father of her betrothed. He's also responsible for the death of her best friend--and his plans for witchkind would mean sacrificing everything Callie cares about. But to take him down, she might have to risk it all...
2020 wasn’t kind to any of us, was it? (And 2021 is off to a shaky start at best!) Pandemic, economic collapse, out-of-control wildfires the world ’round, ice storms, murder hornets…and that’s without even discussing politics. It’s time to send some good energy out there into the world. Good luck, good wishes, good magic, talismans and rituals and lucky charms—you name it, we’ve got it here. BLACK-EYED PEAS ON NEW YEAR’S DAY is a multi-genre anthology focused on hope. Here you’ll find more than a double dozen tales—fantasy, science fiction, literary, even nonfiction—that will bring a smile to your face and some optimism to your heart. After all, we’re all in this together. (Except the murder hornets. They’re not welcome here.)
Shannon Page has been a backwoods hippie child, a nude model, a trophy wife, a failed realtor, a successful copy editor, and a wine enthusiast. She has been monogamous and polyamorous, vegetarian and enthusiastically carnivorous, poor and rich. But she has always been a writer. In this engaging collection of essays on topics ranging from personal growth to money to relationship styles to life on a remote island in the Pacific Northwest, Page explores the pressing questions of life, such as why she never wanted children, why do we have to wear bras anyway, how to make cassoulet, what to do when you're snowed in, what it was like to pose for Playboy, and how to write a novel in three weeks.Other essays include reflections on the loss of parents, money and inequality in relationships, reclaiming a yoga practice after falling badly out of shape, and waiting (or NOT waiting) for permission to do what you really want to do.Tying all these threads together is Page's warm and welcoming voice. So get comfortable, put your feet up, and have a favorite beverage by your side-because once you start reading, you won't want to stop.
