about me

I enjoy reading, music, and photography in addition to writing. I have been writing as long as I can remember and hope to make a living at it someday, but I am my own worst critic. Thoughtful and constructive criticism is much appreciated!

I currently have several books on my watchlist that I'm trying to make it through in my limited free time. If I agree to a read swap, it may take me a while, but I'll get to it eventually.

The Lokana Chronicles is complete at 90,928 words, but only a portion of it is posted as I am in the midst of editing my work. As such, I may not have the most recent edits uploaded, but I've gotten so many wonderful comments here that I'm trying to put them to good use.

Also, a big thank you to Bradley Wind is in order for the wonderful cover he created for The Lokana Chronicles. Thank you!

favourite books

Perhaps my all-time favorite book is Time Enough for Drums by Ann Rinaldi. I also enjoy Jane Austen's and Charles Dickens' novels; Tom Jones by Henry Fielding; and Evelina, or the History of a Young Lady's Entrance into the World by Fanny Burney.

The Lokana Chronicles: Fog of ....

Kay Kauffman

Michael just wanted to know what lay in the woods. He never expected to find his destiny.


Michael Briant has it all - a nice home, a loving family, a beautiful girlfriend...and an overbearing father. The one thing he doesn't have is freedom. He's forbidden to enter the Riverside Park woods, yet he's always heard them calling to him. Desperate to know their secrets, he ventures in, and finds himself in a whole new world.

Now Michael must either return to the quiet life he left behind, or brave new dangers with his friend, Ramila, to defeat a new menace to Lokana. It's not a choice he can make lightly. And if he doesn't decide soon, he'll be stranded in Lokana forever.

 

The Lokana Chronicles

Kay Kauffman

One man longs to transform his kingdom. One woman has the power to do so. Together, they just might succeed.


When Vegin’s parents are murdered, he assumes his new role as king of Lokana. With his beloved wife at his side, he fights to rid the kingdom of corruption and lead his people through the worst famine in Lokana’s history. Just as they begin to make progress, a threat from the high priest forces the queen to flee with her daughter in tow.

Left to rule Lokana alone, a devastated Vegin finds himself in a power struggle. Locked in a bitter feud with the High Priest, tensions steadily worsen. When Vegin’s daughter suddenly reappears fifteen years later, the situation explodes. Civil war is imminent, and the king’s only hope of salvation lies with his daughter. To save their kingdom, he needs her help to defeat the high priest. But her help may not be enough.

Fi! I'm glad to see this is the one you posted and I can't wait to read the rest of it (I think the last time I saw it, there were only six chapters). Have fun here! view book

Hello, Sam! I finally managed to read through the first three chapters and wanted to leave my thoughts. Take or leave them at will. Ch. 1 “I used to bring a small knife to protect myself, but once I’d seen it was impossible to get attacked here, I now didn’t bother.” – This reads funny to me, ... view book

I thoroughly enjoyed this story, but in glancing through some of the earlier comments on the work, I feel I must agree with K A Smith's note about the relationship between Diogo and his father. I thought the whole tone of the story felt older than late nineteenth century, particularly with the stor... view book

Good evening (or good morning, in my case), Sir Dream Catcher! I've got an Alliance crit for you.

Hello, there, I've got an Alliance of Worldbuilders crit for you! As usual, take with as much salt as desired. I read the first four chapters and really enjoyed what I read. However, I feel that maybe you spend a little bit too much time and effort describing the setting - so much time is spent... view book
