Author's Note: I forget that not everyone *knows* things, so I'm sneaking in a second chapter today in order to tell/remind you that 1) my original series is releasing in audio format (pinch me, a division of Recorded Book picked me up). And 2) I do offer signed copies of the Amaranthine Saga on my blog, so if books-on-shelves are your thing, make room for mine! ::twinkle:: More at ForthWrites dot com.
