For those of you who are wondering what in the world happened to new releases? Big shifts happened this last year. I’ll be talking about them on my blog soon, but for now, know that in about one month, I’ll be back on track and as determined as ever to get stories out to my very patient readers. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your continued support through this rough spot.

Also, this year, I’m thinking up some unique giveaways. Let me know what you’d like to see for this coming year in the comments section below. I’m all ears (not literally – as I’m conjuring up a giant typing ear in my somewhat cracked mind’s eye), and raring to go!

Cover Reveal – Goddess Born – A ShadowLight Side Adventure

Announcing Goddess Born, a new ShadowLight side adventure. I started this as a short story and it became clear as I continued on the story that Ginna Hummeldottir (Hummel’s 9th daughter from Bonded, book 1) needed a longer story. She becomes important to Rolf in the third book of the saga. (more…)

Why Do I Write? And How to Find Your Why, Too.

I do it because I believe in a better place.

I do it because I struggle with my own value.

In finding and expressing my authentic self, I find peace, love, understanding, and a path to live in an expanded way.

I think everyone wants this. Whether they are a writers, artists, musicians, cooks, mommies, or engineers. The profession doesn’t matter. It’s the internal drive to be the YOU you are meant to be. (more…)

ShadowLight Glossary of Words/Terms

FIRST: A note about the featured image. Please see *** below.

NOW on to the glossary.

I realize the language and terminology in ShadowLight is foreign and since the language is often based on more than Old Norse (drawing from myths, other languages, or simply made up), I’ve started a glossary of terms for those of you looking for more information on word translations. I’m sure I’ve missed some (or more than some), so please feel free to comment or contact me at mande@mandematthews.com if you’re unclear on any meaning; or if you want to know more about a specific word or phrase.
