Brief Author Bio:

I`m a girl (almost a legal adult! A few more months!) aspiring to be a pastry chef. I`m on my way- attempting to get an apprenticeship at a bakery I am currently co-oping at (pretty much, working without pay through the school, for those who do not know what co-oping is).

I`ve put the third book in my Sanuye Series on hold while I attempt a Urban Fantasy-slash-Historical Fiction novel for this year`s NaNoWriMo.

I`m looking forward to many word wars, and you can add my (now-only) NaNoWriMo Address: lilyflower_dragon (at) hotmail.com (sorry, my keyboard is acting up at the moment)

Synopsis: Mirror Masquerade

Titania Simone is questioned and teased by her friends, family and teachers about how tired she always seems to be. She blows it off as just liking her sleep, but the truth is far from that.

Throughout the day, Titania is a normal school girl trying to get through high school with as little damage as possible (especially when her name is that of Shakespeare's fairy queen). But when the lights go out in her house, she steps through her antique mirror to another world currently resembling the 19th century.

She is a Stepper, those of which have found passageways to other worlds through magicked mirrors. In this other world, she is Eliza Bennett, one of a house of Steppers living second lives as those of their own worlds move along. This is the world she feels she belongs in.

But not is all as good as it seems. A new girl, named Claire, believes this is too good to be true and views the magic of Stepping as a game, threatening the lives, and futures, of all the Steppers. As well, Steppers start disappearing, tearing Eliza's makeshift family apart, someone is after the passwords to all the mirrors for unknown reasons, and there are more secret lives than those the house of Steppers share.

Struggling to keep her head above the water, Titania has to choose what she needs more- reality or fantasy, and she realizes that when your life is falling apart in the world that is supposed to be your home, fantasy and possible love, can be quite tempting.

And they say you only have one life to live...
