I have written over 80 books for K-YA. Many are titles in my middle grade series: American Diaries, Survival, and Hoofbeats. The Unicorn's Secret and The Faeries' Promise series are for young readers. ((excerpts are up on http://www.kathleenduey.com)) Dark, atypical fantasy for teens and adults is my new love. My first YA novel,Skin Hunger, was a 2007 National Book Award finalist. Sacred Scars was released in 2009. The third book in the trilogy is finished and in the production process now.

A Resurrection of Magic--the art of centering intent
Borrowing vids from the amazing Michael Moschen to illustrate how I see what the wizards call "a still point" held deep inside the body that preserves both some humanity and sanity. Hahp is juggling a lot more than balls, of course. He thinks of his own still point as the quiet place--the only place where he can sometimes believe that he is alive.

I've never seen Michael Moschen. Wow. And I see how his skill--the concentration and calm-- illustrates Hahp's still place. My heart aches so for Hahp. I shall think of him balancing that glass ball and playing drums on cliff edges now. Thanks for sharing this.
Tricia....Michael Moschen is remarkable and his concentration is astounding--and yes, exactly what the boys must learn in order to live.
In the third book of the trilogy, so far:
Hahp and Sadima are both still alive. So is Somiss. The people of the city of Limori are uneasy. The magicians walk unafraid in Market Square and are often seen in South End. The books that contain the records of all the wars are in still hidden libraries and have been for generations.
So...
Thanks for caring about the characters. They are dear to me.
wow this is amazing!! but if you dont mind me asking what will happen with sadima and somiss and franklin? and what will the title of the next book be!!
Sammia...I am writing the third book now and I don't have a title for it yet. The title often comes last for me...
I can't tell you much about the third book because I don't want to spoil it for anyone...I can tell you that they are all three still alive and that Sadima is learning things she never thought she would learn--
