Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.

I am crooked. Ignorance and misfortune isn't bliss. We all want to wither away into dust. We all do get those feelings. My emotions and heart is in the poems to cry, to save, and to inspire. The Shattered Within is my first poetry of thoughts and emotions. Warning: Not for the faint of heart. Not taking any responsibility for any of your actions or emotions from these poems. I just want to inspire.

Now i'm a bit of a newbie to writing poems but i'd like to give it a go. So no being too harsh ;). Enjoy!

My name is Wrenn. Wrenn Vaux to be precise. I am to be the Queen of Delhia when the moon turns and our world descends into darkness. I am scared of the dark; it makes me do strange, evil things. Yet our very race thrives in darkness. I was born from the dark I was raised in the light, a secret I am forbidden to share. The only thing I can't change about who I am is my eyes, the only thing that marks me as a part of our race, my emerald green eyes.

In this experimental fantasy novel, a first person protagonist Eliseo and his peers will partake in a dangerous adventure. They have been chosen to "save their people" and they must enter Havlard's Dungeon. The Dungeon houses some of the most evil things known to the world. They must reach the bottom and defeat the Broodmother, the creator of all evil. Nobody has succeeded in the many years this has been practiced. This is an experimental novel, I have not written much before and any feedback would be appreciated.
