This book got delayed a little, but It’s finally coming out this month and I’m so excited. I’ve been working on the Shadow Fan Series series for a while and I love the characters. This is one of those stories where I have no clue what’s gonna happen next as I write. The characters wrote this series, and I was just along for the ride.
I love myths and legends of old, and that’s where these stories draw breath from. But these are not the usual myths of Greek legend. These are myths and legends of Japanese lore. I make no secret that I’m a bit of a child. I love anime (Japanese animation/cartoons). But I also love their versions of trickster spirits and demons of despair. They play a large part in this series, so I figured you might want to meet some of them.
Yoshino is a spirit who resides in the Boarder Lands, or the place between this world and the next. She keeps the balance of a particular mountain in her world and ours, and she’s very good at her job. She appears as a young woman, and is extremely powerful. He emotions play a vital role in the health of the mountain and all who live there. So you see, if she were to fall in love… well, that could throw a wrench into the workings of her mountain 🙂
