Synopsis: Stranger

After six months of planning for one book, I switched course.

In Stranger, a girl is forced from her dimension into our own. Five years later, she's given up all hope of ever returning. She's taken on the name Xui Li and is living her life to the fullest--until people from her world show up. At first, she thinks they want her dead. Only then does she realise it's worse: they want her alive. To pass on what she knows of this world.

And whatever they want with that knowledge, it's not going to be good...

For one whopping hour, I also wrote part of this novel, a sequel to the book I wrote for last year's NaNoWriMo, Always Read the Fae Print.

Valentijn has only been a werewolf for a few months, but that's enough for him. Enough to want out.

When Wodan, newly repowered Germanic god in a flashy suit, offers him the chance to become human again, Valentijn wastes no time in agreeing. He only has to do one thing: infiltrate a steadily growing werewolf cult. Wodan suspects Loki is behind its formation, and doesn't trust his intentions one bit.

Being around other werewolves is trying for Valentijn, who is simultaneously fascinated and disgusted by their whole-hearted acceptance of their wolf side. When Nkem shows up, a half-changeling with a secret and the hots for Valentijn, things get even more complicated...
