Kay Kauffman
As a girl, I dreamed of being swept off my feet by my one true love. At the age of 24, it finally happened … and he’s never let me forget it. A mild-mannered secretary by day and a determined word-wrangler by night, I battle the twin evils of distraction and procrastination in order to write fantastical tales of wuv … twue wuv … with a few bad haiku thrown in for good measure.

I reside in the midst of an Iowa corn field with my hopelessly devoted husband and his mighty red pen; four crazy, cute kids; and an assortment of adorable kitties, chicks, and bunnies.

Tuesday Daydreams cover
My first novel, The Price of Mercy: Book One of the Lokana Chronicles, is currently undergoing a major rewrite in advance of another round of queries. My poetry collection, Tuesday Daydreams: A Journal in Verse, is available on Amazon.

Capturing the life and imagination of the author in vivid detail, these poems touch on joy and loss, life’s everyday hassles, and the many faces of Mother Nature.

The Amulet of Kings
4 of 5 stars
The Amulet of Kings
by Will Macmillan Jones

Kindar's Cure

Kindar's Cure
by Michelle Hauck
This was a fantastic story. Mal was, for me, a bit hard to read, and I felt at the end that…well, not to give anything away, but I felt he must have been a wonderful actor. I loved Sir Henry – he reminded me strongly of Seymour. And...
Bad Bishop
5 of 5 stars
Bad Bishop
by Irene Soldatos
So, what did I think? I thought it was great. It reminded me very strongly of the classic literature that I love so much. I didn’t put everything together until the very end, which I always enjoy. It’s nice to be kept guessing. And ...
City of the Sun
5 of 5 stars
City of the Sun
by Juliana Maio
Once I started this story, I couldn’t put it down. Well, okay, I could, obviously, or it wouldn’t have taken me so long to finish it, but when I wasn’t reading, I was thinking about it. Mickey and Maya wouldn’t leave me alone; they dem...
Chasing Azrael
5 of 5 stars
Chasing Azrael
by Hazel Butler
I could not put this book down. I stayed up past the witching hour reading this book on more than one occasion and was sorely tempted to just read the whole thing in one sitting, but my day job had other ideas (apparently they like thei...
