In my last blog post, (My Manuscript is finished. Time to prepare for publishing.), getting my finished manuscript excited me. Since then, I have formatted the document for both e-book and paperback versions. Miblart, MIBLART | Book cover design services, has submitted an initial cover design and is working on some modifications. If everything works out, I can upload the cover and manuscript this month and set a release date.

If you have signed up for notifications, an email newsletter should appear in your inbox in the next few days. The monthly newsletter will keep you updated on the book’s release, offer a free chapter of the book, and provide a cover reveal and information on where to purchase the book.

I am also changing my website while I wait for the cover design. You should notice them when you visit. Use the Contact Me button below to comment on the changes.

Here is the title and description of the book:

Salvation and Doom: The Cathardi Prophecy

Six years after the Cathardi invaded Earth, claiming to be friends, Josh fulfilled his childhood dream of going into space. Now his friends were dead, and the Urlak had invaded Earth. The Cathardi refused to help Earth. He couldn’t trust them. They betrayed his people, treating them like an early warning system against a known threat. Now he and fellow earthling, Kim, had fled from the Cathardi to the frontier to start a new life.


Liria believed the Creator led her to the out-of-the-way planet, Earth, where she would find the one prophesied to save Cathardi. Had the Creator spoken to her? Was she really a prophet? Liria had been so certain the Earth pilot Josh would fulfill the ancient prophecy. Now he blamed her and her people for the Urlak attack on his world. Did her attraction to him cloud her judgment? Now her dreams warn of doom for her world. Would it survive if the Urlak discovered its location? Would the true chosen one come? She has no choice but to heed the warnings.


Is Josh the chosen one? Is there any hope for either world?
