Chronicles of Ramlar
I've contributed to several projects in the Chronicles of Ramlar line, including my two novels, Into the Reach and Departure. (A third, Regaining Home, is forthcoming.) Many people have asked me how I got the opportunity to write novels; it started at Origins 2005 when I met the WhiteSilver team. They asked me to do some work on the Chronicles of Ramlar RPG, designing a couple of cities. One hundred pages of world-description later, and the White Silver team asked if I might be interested in doing fiction as well. I jumped up and down a bit, then said yes, and that's how it happened!

Into the Reach
Art by Lindsay Archer.
In the land of Eranon, the Reach is a desolate place where people journey to forget who they are. Now, a menace rises from this wasteland, and he is hunting for someone. To keep the madman and his chaos behind the Reach, four adventurers with haunted pasts must rise to the challenge. But how can failed heroes bring hope to others when they doubt themselves?
Departure
Called to face the pasts they hoped to leave behind, Lydia, Kennerly, Nara, and Taru leave the Reach for the homes they once knew. There, new enemies have been set against them, driven by the same dark force they hoped they had defeated. Now the people they once most trusted have become pieces in a game that may lead them down the road to their deaths.
