Brief Author Bio:

My former Wrimo screenname is evlocke, which was my old pen name -- so delete evlocke from your friends list please.

Aside from speculative fiction, I write poetry, sappy bits of prose, and papers for academia -- being a student and all.

I'm in the process of publishing my works online at my site Muerta's Tears (http://muertastears.wordpress.com). Bellica is the one currently going up, and more will appear as I finish and edit them.

Synopsis: The Jade Star of Athering

Bellica Agate has never cared particularly about anything outside her sphere — she and her Regiment have been stationed in Harbourtown for the past decade, and that’s the only town in Athering they’ve been terribly concerned about.

But just a few months ago, she and her regiment got called back to Atherton, where they fought against an invading force intent on taking their homeland. And now a new trouble has arisen — a bandit army has occupied Southland, led by a woman calling herself the Gypsy Queen. Athering’s own Queen has asked Bellica Agate to go on a diplomatic mission to Southland to discuss a truce with the bandit army.

Agate agrees, but this mission is more than it seems…and the secret she discovers could change Athering — and her — forever.
