Wren's name

How Wren Sullivan, the main character and narrator of For Ever, got her name is a bit random. With many of the other characters in the book, I really toiled over their names, trying to figure out something appropriate. But with Wren, I happened to be on www.babynames.com and the "Name of the Day" happened to be Wren, or "small bird."

Having grown up with an unusual name, I felt a connection ... and it also seemed to fit my character, who has always felt a little off-center.

A tiny preview of Never


From Never ...
***
There’s a feeling after you’ve had a really bad nightmare, when you’ve opened your eyes, and for a few seconds you’re still there, in the dream, but awake. I’ve just remembered my nightmare, and it turns out I’m still in it.

I don’t even have enough time to be grateful that I’m not dead. ...

Never is half-way done!

I had to go back and re-work some stuff earlier in the story, but the sequel to For Ever nearly half-way done! I've got a couple of teasers to share. Not sure which I'll put out there first, but I can say that a lot is changing in Wren's world right now.

I can't wait until it's done and I can share the next part of The Ever Series!
