I am thrilled to announce that my newest alternate-history novella, Carthage Atlantica, is out now on the Amazon Kindle Store!

It is 200 BC, and the North African civilization of Carthage is recovering from a brutal war against the Roman Republic. Searching for new lands to colonize so they can rebuild their wealth, the Carthaginians send a fleet across the Atlantic Ocean that lands on the shore of North America, which they call “Atlantis”. As they struggle to adapt to this new world, the Carthaginian settlers find themselves drawn into a conflict between Native American nations, a conflict the colonists’ own leadership is willing to aggravate in the name of their personal ambitions. Can the colony of Carthage Atlantica survive in this account of alternate history?

I've posted a new short story on my writing blog titled "Return of the Mother Goddess". It stars my archaeologist OC Latonya Coleman, who is on a mission to return a stolen idol to an ancient temple deep in the Ivory Coast of West Africa. She must brave not only the local wildlife, but also an old nemesis...

Return of the Mother Goddess

I would like to announce that the first anniversary of the publication of my debut novel, Priestess of the Lost Colony, is coming up on the 27th of April this year. Please check out this press release commemorating the event, and be sure to get yourself a copy of the book either in e-book or paperback form!

A headstrong Egyptian priestess, her brother, their sacked colony—and a rescue mission. When Itaweret’s beloved Per-Pehu falls to the tyrannical Scylax, she and her brother Bek lead a mission to save her captured people and depose Scylax. Along the way, they run into all kinds of perils, friends, and foes—and beasts sent by an angry goddess. Set in ancient Greece 3,500 years ago, this is a tale blending magical realism with history, high adventure with discovery...and Itaweret’s determination to save her people while learning her heart’s desires and realizing her deeper purpose.
