About Michael and Di (MD) Blaylock Or more specifically, Michael and Di Blaylock, a husband and wife writing team. We are Christian authors in Colorado who finally thought to combine forces in 2023. Michael is the mastermind behind most of the projects, our outline extraordinaire and dreamer of worlds. Di is the one asking important questions like, “But why aren’t they dragon people?” on the team, and also the networking guru who knows how to talk to people. Between the two of us, you’ll get to see worlds unfold with characters you’ll love (or love to hate), comedy that’ll have you needing a new pair of pants, and a place to rest, become empowered, and be delighted. About The Stories We Tell by Blaylock Lily Harper tells lies. Like, “Of course I can finish the novel in forty-five days!” when there are exactly zero words written for her Christmas romance novel. Or “I love when you redecorate my life,” when her sister takes over—again. And her all-time “Everything’s fine.” But now Lily has to face her lies. In order to keep her book contract and brand-new house, she recruits hyper-critical author Curtis Reynolds to help. His razor-blade words cut Lily right out of her own book, yet they also show her the truth behind her fake smiles. Everything is not fine, and it hasn’t been for a long time. To save her book, her house, and her family, Lily must find her voice, and turn a rival into a friend—or perhaps more. But finding her voice is the easy part. Does she have the strength to wield it? About Goldenguard by Blaylock He left them for dead. Now he’s their only hope. Big Walter doesn’t want to be a hero anymore. He spent his youth prowling through the dark, and punching back whatever crawled out of it. Of course, he had friends then—a one-eared do-gooder, a serpent-tongued fire mage, the town belle, and a scab-kneed night elf—all guarding their Midwestern town of New Haven. Before they all fell apart. Before Walter had enough of being the big, dumb brute. Before he left, and finally found peace. But now, something is calling him home. The darkness has grown stronger, New Haven is undefended, and worst of all, Walter can hear his friends screaming in his mind. But going back means more than trudging through the icy winter and the slithering night. He must return to his youth, relive the joys of friendship and community, and suffer old heartaches anew. Only then can he answer the hard questions: what really happened to those blissful years? What’s waiting for him out in the darkness? And is there enough time to set it right? About Brittany Lawrence Author Brittany Lawrence writes paranormal urban mysteries, and paranormal romance. She currently lives in Colorado with her family and three cats. You can find her walking around the foothills, looking for inspiration. About Sparks to Ash by Lawrence A year ago, Marie Blackwell ran from her family and the marriage they arranged for her to a man she couldn’t love. Determined to be her own person, she fled Maryland to Colorado, where she found a new coven, new beginnings, and a new hope. Baubles and Brews, her quaint little tea shop and new home, was supposed to be Marie’s fresh start, but days before its Halloween opening, chaotic energy found her. Dark magic, sabotage, and notices from the DRC about community standards will push her to use magic in ways she promised she wouldn’t. It would be a Samhain to remember. About Kissing a Curse by Lawrence Umbre creatures are out of the coffin, and Lucia is looking for love. If she can't find a capybara mate, she'll settle for a good human. Finding a dating app run by a magical unicorn may be exactly what she needs.
