North Sea Dawn Available

North Sea Dawn is now available for purchase on Amazon. I am so excited to have this work, my first original full-length fiction, out there in the world. With you, the reader.

I loved writing this story.  I laughed when the Vikings prepared for war in their boisterous, confident way. I felt terrible for Julia when her brother died and nearly cried writing her acceptance of his death. I was on the edge of my seat as I found the perfect words to describe that anxious, excited, nervous feeling right before the romance – and the worse anxious, excited, nervous feeling right afterwards. I grinned when Eric foreshadowed the Princess Bride by about 920 years. I actually jumped out of my seat when the villain finally got what was coming to him, yelling “take that!”, like a crazy person, at my computer.  I may have squealed a little during a particular, perfectly in-character, confession.

I hope you enjoy reading this even a fraction of how much I enjoyed writing it.

Who am I kidding, I hope you love it – more than chocolate, wine, and a shirtless Thor scene all rolled into one. Ambitious? Yes. But it’s out there. In the world. And that might be the best feeling an author can have.

    Why does Eric speak Slovak if he is supposed to be a viking?

      Great Question! The answer is in his name, Vandalsson.

      Spoiler Alert: It is mentioned a few times in passing throughout the story, and then in more detail at the end of the book, but Eric’s father was a Vandal. These people were originally from the area now called Poland and ranged into Germany, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic. By 1066, the Vandals as a distinct people no longer existed, but the term was still used to describe Eastern European and Germanic peoples. Eric lived with his parents in Eastern Europe until he was nine.
