Heather Sutherlin has a great blog where she encourages "students to read and write more of what they love" with writing exercises and story starters, writing tips and tricks, and a bunch of other fun stuff.
She also reviews books from and runs guest posts by independent authors like me!
Heather graciously asked me for a guest post and I decided to go with the three most common questions kids ask me at readings.

Dragonfriend Horn Tootage
Writer/reviewer Heather Sutherlin gives Dragonfriend a hearty thumbs up on her eponymous blog and states:
"I know boys and girls alike will find this story fascinating and fun. My daughter might complain that it gets a bit “yucky” during the battle scenes, but not more than would cause any normal fifth grade boy to yell out “cool!” as he reads through it. In turn, the boy in my house might not appreciate the innocent crush Leonard has on Maiden Glennys, but my daughter will eat it up."Yup, she gets it. You can read the rest of the review here.

Book Review: Vaetra Unveiled
Despite their mutual distrust, Jaylan Forester, a disgraced
former member of the Imperial Guard turned mercenary, and Sulana Delano, a hard-edged
Sword Sorceress from the enigmatic Archives, team up to fight a lurking evil
and recover a mysterious artifact.
Along the way Jaylan learns his destiny is somehow tied to
"vaetra," the power sorcerers use to alter nature,
and that he’s going to have to seriously adjust his prejudice against those who
practice this ancient art.
Author Daniel Marvello has successfully crafted a truly
exciting story, transporting the reader to a gritty and fascinating world that feels
about as real as it gets. There were no “road bumps” (typos, weak world
building, uninteresting characters) to derail me as this satisfying adventure story
played out like a movie in my head.
Every aspect of this book is fully developed and loving care
has been taken to get everything just right. It’s not a short book and yet I
easily finished it within two days – a testament to the fact that Vaetra
Unveiled is a flat out page turner. Highly Recommended
