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.

Limori: Book Three Post # 16
Book Three, Post # Sixteen
This was taken at a weird angle and that seems perfect to me today. Cypress trees are standing impossibly upright to the right of everything else in the image and the birds of paradise are drooping down over what looks like a hidden entrance into somewhere dark and strange. Sadima is in a tunnel this morning, walking fast.. No one around her is speaking...they are all scared. So am I.

Ok, this is odd.....I hadn't seen vultures here in along time but this morning there were thirty or more doing the wind-circle-glide-dance. I noticed them during my first writing break and was staring upward, watching them when I thought about this: I want to kill someone---someone in the story. Probably not the one you might imagine but someone who has ruined more lives than any of the others....
Tomorrow I might understand all this better. I will talk to everyone first. If we are going to do this, I want it quick and without pain.
Rereading that: Authors are not as loony as we sound, but ending the life of a character is still a jolt, a very painful thing for me.
If anyone wants to guess, feel free, but I won't tell.....

Limori : Book Three Post # 14
This is the German cover.....And I love it too.
Everyone who worked on these books did such an amazing job of making the covers match the feelings of the story. This last story is slowly emerging and almost nothing is happening the way I thought it would. Limori has changed. Somiss has a library the size of a stadium. I will follow him there soon, it scares me to think about what he might be researching now.
* More interesting things today......Limori is really changing. I am starting to think there are people waiting for a chance to ruin the city. Not sure....

Limori ; BOOK THREE Post #13
Another tree, this time in Winter. Snow and ice and freezing wind.... it is cold and dangerous in Limori now..... in every way and at every moment. No one knows where Somiss is. I am hoping to find out soon and I am hoping he is dead, or has gotten bored after all his years of using children to prove his theories about fear and magic. I am just afraid for Sadima...that he will find her...
