For two years now, I’ve been trying to regrow some rose bushes the previous owners of our house cut down. I spray them (to keep the bunnies off.) It rains. The bunnies eat them.

The novel is a tale that weaves a dark tapestry of fairytales together. It was a lot of fun to write and I hope it will be as much … Continue reading Kingdom South- New Wattpad story
