Hello! Thanks for stopping by! I'm new to Wattpad, although I've been writing epic fantasy for ten years now. Writing fantasy has become my passion and a thrilling life adventure. I write what I love, sweeping medieval sagas with a sword-wielding princess, a brilliantly strategic queen, a mysterious archer, a cunning counselor, a seductive priestess and a silver-haired grandmother who wields knitting needles and knives. Lives, loves and crowns, hang in the balance but few mortals understand the rules. The name of my saga is The Silk & Steel Saga, or SASS, for all the sassy women in my books! The first book is The Steel Queen. I'll be posting the opening chapters here on Wattpad. I've also posted the prologues of The Flame Priest and The Skeleton King, the 2nd and 3rd books of the saga. The Assassin's Tear is my collection of short stories, including two signature stories set in my medieval kingdom of Erdhe. Please read, vote and comment, and fan if you like. I'll also be posting some tips on writing and publishing fantasy. I'd love to hear from you. Leave me a comment with a link if you have something you want me to read. All of my books are available on Amazon. I hope you enjoy my stories! Karen
