Meanwhile, the authors have been working on the taglines for their stories—a one-sentence description that captures the central theme and tells you who and what the story is about. Personally, I think they did an awesome job! Have a look! Fight Like Cats and Wolves by A.J. Harris – After their helicopter is forced down by a rogue war machine, an…

UPDATE: The winner is…Mary Ann Dean! *~*~* I attribute my overactive imagination to being an only child living in a rural area.

She was an artist…

Nope, you’re not hallucinating, and you definitely read that right. Years ago, after too many margaritas and on a little bit of a dare, Sanctuary was born. It went something like this: Friend: Ha!
