The recipes are conning in, I am baking away, and I am finally posting them on Book Basset on the new Recipe tab you will find in the header on the Home Page. You can also just click here to go straight there.  It’s been fun baking new cookies and treats, but I am going to have to do some serious cardio to balance out all the eating I have been doing. It’s even a bit much for me. I did do quite a workout last night though, that I think should make up for it. Once again I was the only person in that class last night, and all that one on one attention killed me again. My partner in crime is still in Canton Ohio with the family, so she wasn’t there to take some of the attention off of me. Thank golly all the coaches are so nice at that place. They never yell at me because I am pushing myself and trying as hard as I can. I have been to enough gyms with coaches that yell, and just found it unnecessary. I am a nice person. Don’t yell at me.

Book 1 in the award-winning Anna Kronberg series.

Anna Kronberg lives in Victorian London’s worst rookery, offering medical treatment to prostitutes, vagrants, and criminals. To her, plugging holes and mopping up blood is normal. Stitching the slashed face of a young prostitute is not. Witnesses refuse to talk. The police can’t be bothered with yet another injured whore. But whispers are spreading about a man who pays well for a few harmless knife marks.

No one dares reveal the man’s identity. Only Garret O’Hare – a thief Anna barely knows – reluctantly agrees to help her investigate the assault.
But when the injured girl disappears, a veil of silence descends upon the slum. And Anna learns that she is no longer the hunter, but the hunted.

Warning: medical procedures, poverty, and prostitution are depicted without apology.

Genre: Teen & Young Adult | Fantasy

An unlikely young hero. An incredible destiny.

Eva has never swung a sword. She’s never flown through the open sky on a gryphon or dreamed of being a hero. She’s content with a quiet life — two feet firmly on the ground, working in her foster-father’s forge. But that’s all about to change.

When Eva discovers a young thief hiding in her woodshed with a stolen gryphon egg, the shy, timid girl is forced to leave everything she’s ever known to become Windsworn — elite warriors who ride fierce gryphons into battle. As she struggles to learn the ways of the Windsworn, Eva finds herself caught in a plot to destroy the gryphon riders and plunge the kingdom into war, a plot that somehow involves her deceased parents.

In the face of growing danger, can Eva conquer her fears and unravel the secrets of her past in time to save the Windsworn?

Fans of Eragon, Harry Potter and the Dragonriders of Pern will love this fast-paced coming of age fantasy, set in a world of majestic gryphons and ancient magic.
