“Part fantasy, part astute coming of age story, Black River brilliantly depicts the angst of adolescence, along with its burgeoning – and sometimes terrifying – power. Like its dynamic heroine Dusty, the prose brims with vitality; I felt every moment of her transformation as if I were right there on the mountain with her… the world of Black River was so evocative, I found myself envying Dusty's unfurling connection to the natural world, and to her own formidable nature. I need to know what happens next!’

– Jacqueline Bublitz, author of Before You Knew My Name

A woman sitting on a bed with white sheets, wearing a black sleeveless top and blue jeans, with long brown hair and a slight smile, looking at the camera.

Stories were my first love - a light at the end of the tunnel, a homecoming, an escape. They are my way of understanding the past, the present and the future. A place where everything goes quiet, and all that I am left with is an infinity of possibilities.
