Wolf Moon: Out Now!

March 8, 2020 by JoAnna Leave a Comment

Wolf Moon

My first fantasy novella, Wolf Moon is released today in e-book format. It’s also the birthday of my most beautiful granddaughter, Caitlin, to whom I’ve dedicated this book.

I’ve been working for the past year on making a space for my new writing persona, and this will be the first of many fantasy based stories. I have so many ideas, it’s wonderful to escape into a world of my own making and create characters that I both love and hate at the same time! I’m already working on the second ‘Moon’ based book which I plan to publish towards the end of the year.

Three Moons
Two Worlds
One Legacy

Xanthe has no idea what a Moon Princess is never mind The Book of Words.
All Xanthe has ever wanted is to meet the mother who abandoned her at the Wishing Well Centre. On the fifteenth anniversary of that date she finds herself up a tree talking to a white peacock and receives her first ever present. A map of portals.
Aided by her best and only friend, Kit, she arrives on the Kingdom of Selene. The Season of the Three Moons is nigh and as the Moon Princess, Ayla she must free the Moon People from the evil grasps of the dryad, Toovah.
Will Xanthe be able to complete the challenges set for her and defeat the evil Toovah? Does she want to? And will she finally meet the mother she dreams of?
