ASPERIA FIRST LIGHT
Author: MONIQUE ANGEL
I grew up in New Zealand and became a journalist in 2001. I had a lot of fun
doing community journalism over the next decade with a young family. I wrote children’s
books and poetry in my spare time of which there wasn’t very much of as a young Mom.
Our family of seven (ve children) emigrated to the USA in 2012. I was still
recovering from a hemorrhagic stroke I had in 2006 while pregnant with my second
child. It completely disabled me for some years. It turned out the change of scene
would be good for both my recovery, my writing and my creative visualization
process. Not long after we moved to the U.S. I started being visited by images of
characters and started developing a storyline for a fantasy book aimed at teenagers
and their parents. I hope you enjoy reading Asperia, First Light as much as I did
writing it.
This book is available online and can be purchased at online bookstores.
