I had a hilarious laugh when someone called the matter to my attention that the word “MOONSHINE” was in my blurb of “The Tree.”
No, there was no illegal liquor stills in young Ana’s room. Moonshine is an old way of saying moonlight. You find it lots in older literature. Well, at least it will get people’s attention. LOL!
Seriously thus, the word hasn’t always meant what the Appalachian and deep south moonshiner forced it to mean. They distilled at night as to why they were called moonshiners.
During Ana’s time there’s something illegal far more destruction than “Moonshine” But if there were a tab bit in the room I’m sure Cooter would drink it all from her.
ROTFL!

Her works are mainly horror, fantasy, extreme, and sci-fi as well as, as some may says, "the truly strange predicament and puzzling." Books that I've written are "Clash with the Immortals, and eleven others which are part of the "Unholy Pursuit saga,". She has been working on the Chronicles since 2007. She wished to complete them all before introducing them to public so the readers wouldn't have to for the continuation to be written.
The ideas of the book come from classic literature such as whose work greatly influence the world world such as Homer, Sophocles, Herodotus, Euripides, Socrates, Hippocrates, Aristophanes, Plato, Aristotle and many more. The "Book of Enoch" influenced the usage of Azazael as a main character and love interest. I created the primary main character from the Chronicle of Saints. I wanted to show them as real flesh and blood with thoughts, desires and yearning as any human. Not as they are so often depicted. So I created one of my own to show her as a real human that everyone can relate to.
I can not deny this was funny. I needed that laugh. 😀 Keep the humor coming. 🙂

Moonshine is the last thing young Ana needs. She’s hyper enough as things stands. She a full-spirited child: Outside at night fighting demons and immortals. Running through the woods chasing demons. Little wonder the Archangel Mike erased her memory. Supposed she had taken those divine skills unto physically world. She could have unstoppable.

Oh, when she’s angry, she is keen and shrewd!
She was a vixen when she went to school.
And though she be but little, she is fierce.”
Though she be but little she is fierce’ is a quote from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, spoken by Helena in act 3, scene 2, referring to her friend Hermia.
