Hop over to my site to read the entire first chapter: www.caitlinwest.com

Karen Bowers has always dreamed of dead people. They begged for her help and at the tender age of twelve, her parents had her institutionalized. Now, a semi-successful artist, she has embraced what doctors could not stamp out, quietly helping spirits move on to the afterlife.

But even accepting her fate has not made her immune to the twisted designs of the universe. A spirit two hundred years in her grave shows up asking for help, centuries beyond anything she’s ever dealt with. Her clues involve a tragedy in 1805, a doomed love affair and a dangerous ambition that could unravel the very fabric of reality.

Can she unlock the mystery before it’s all too late? Will the help of an eccentric book store owner turn the tide? What will happen to the life she’s managed to build around her odd condition? The answer lies in a spark.

I received a five star review for Dry Spells & Divinity over at Night Owl Romance.

Meanwhile, I also have the first song from the band Avalon Nights up on my site. It's a work in progress and I don't have the vocals yet but you can hear what my vision of the band from the book sounds like. Think Mission UK meets the Cure, hangs out with the Verve and gives the Cult a high five on the way by.

You can hear it at my web site: www.caitlinwest.com

Hope you take a look! (and listen!)

I have posted a new blog entry on my site (www.caitlinwest.com) It's called 'Caring about Characters' and delves into just how important this can be to any medium: movies, video games, or novels.

If only I could get LJ cuts to work here, I'd post it. Aw well. It's just too long.

Please hop over and take a look! :)

The synopsis:

Abigail Wright really has it made. As the lead singer for the internationally acclaimed band, Avalon Nights, she enjoys a career that most people would kill for. She has great friends and awesome hours. Life literally couldn’t get any better. Maybe that’s why fate just couldn’t leave her alone.

Two mysterious men enter the scene, each with information about her enigmatic father that disappeared before she was born. They speak of paranormal events, angels and demons and tremendous responsibility being dropped squarely on her shoulders.

As if dodging snarky reviewers and odd fans wasn’t bad enough, she has to come to terms with the fact that real monsters may exist.

The choice before her is whether to embrace that world for the good of humanity or turn her back on her heritage.
