United we fell . . .
Tried as an adult and imprisoned for life at age seventeen, Clarke Simmons is hardly your average young woman. Day after day trapped in a cell, she dreams of freedom until one night she gets her wish. The federal prison, where she has been detained for the last five years, is overcome by a mutiny from within. She escapes only to find that the country of Darkania is in a state of full-blown anarchy, now run by a heinous cult of anarchists who call themselves The Trinity. In this story, everyone is homeless. Everyone is starving. Everyone is desperate. Clarke, now an ex-convict nomad, wanders the chaotic streets of Sanctum City alongside fellow comrade Ronnie. Together, they survive by looting supplies, seeking shelter, and taking out anyone who gets in their way. All goes south when radicals kidnap them as hostages. The two girls are thrust in a predicament when they are drafted into a rebellion to save Darkania from extinction. But is this group who they appear to be? And whom is the mysterious man dressed in all black that Clarke finds herself eerily connected to? In this story, no path is entirely what it seems.

Exile: The Book of Ever
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.Complete
