"Birthright"

"Birthright" is a new and upcoming Paranormal Romance due out hopefully this Christmas.

The main character in my novel, has fallen for the murderer of her parents, Kane Smith, a vampire whose psychi has caught the lovely Miss Rosewood and chooses her for his own human servant. With four markings before she becomes truly his, her life will never be the same again. It is set in Utica, Illinois, present time, where mystery lies deep within the Rosewood family unbeknownst to Candra and unfolds slowly throughout the story.

Head strong, single Candra Rosewood, is at the pinnacle of her life, where things are just beginning to start off beautifully, until news of her parents death and no murderer to be found, sends her back home and leaving her pick up the broken pieces and try to start anew, but with one firm resolution, to find the killer herself.
She meets up with Kane the first night she is back home and from there, her life becomes one upheaval to the next. Kane stalks and watches her day and night driving Candra to the point where it becomes too much to handle. Half wishing he would go, the other half needing to see him again driving her to the brink of insanity.
And what about the locket that holds ashes, found in her home. Whose did it belong too, and why, when held in her hand send her back to 1817? It is then that things of her past come to haunt her and beacon her to do the right thing.

More details are to follow as I find out when the availability of it becomes known.
So keep checking up here and when it does go up for sale, you'll be the first to know! But do come back as I will be posting my other bits of dark writing.

Countess Elizabeth Bathory

In my research I came across Countess Elizabeth Bathory and found this person to be truly a horrific person. Deemed a Vampire in the sense that she drank and bathed in the blood of her victims, but she herself was not a "true" vampire in that she didn't have fangs and couldn't go out in the sunlight, etc. Elizabeth became pregnant as the result of a brief affair with a peasant man in 1574. When her condition became evident, she was sequestereduntil the baby's birth, due to her engagement to Count Ferenc Nadasdy. They were married in May of 1575. Since Nadasdy was a soldier, he was frequently away for long periods of time. This left Bathory with the duties of managing the affairs of the Nadasdy family estate, Castle Sarvar. It was here that Elizabeth's career of evil truly began, with the disciplining of the large household staff, especially the young girls. It was after her husbands death that she started in with her atrocities. One of her servants pulled...

The Stone and Modern Science (Continuation of the Philosopher's Stone)

Though the notion of a simple philosopher's stone of the alchemic sense fell out of scientific conception by at least the 19th century, its metaphors and imagery persisted: man's attempt to discover the essential secret of the universe, redemptively transforming not just lead into gold, but death into life. In 1901, Ernest Rutherford and Frederick Soddy discovered that radioactivity was a sign of fundamental changes within elements, and it was Soddy who quickly made the connection between this and the ancient search for the philosopher's stone (Soddy had studied alchemy extensively as a hobby). At the moment of realization that their radioactive thorium was converting itself into radium, bit by bit, Soddy later recalled that he shouted out: "Rutherford, this is transmutation!" Rutherford snapped back, "For Christ's sake, Soddy, don't call it transmutation. They'll have our heads off as alchemists." However the term stuck, in part because it...
