COG STONE DREAMS, my novel, is about Dessa who doesn’t always have ordinary flying backwards, tsunami and upside down coyote dreams, and smugglers, wise grandmothers, royal family members pretending to be commoners, rich people who live the high life, poor people who catch malaria, and the Westbruk Estuarial Wetlands. COG STONE DREAMS will soon be published by Red Phoenix Books.
