The Witches of Claw and Fang

by Zach Stivers

Genre: Paranormal Romance, Thriller


Welcome to the cozy mountain town of Pineville, Virginia. It’s autumn, the leaves are gold and orange, the apples are crisp and sweet, town residents are going missing, and a bloodthirsty monster with ten-inch claws is loose in the forest.

Morgan Reaves tries her damndest NOT to use magic. That’s why she hid in Pineville, after all. But now, Morgan needs to dust off her spell-casting skills, ASAP. Problem is, she may have lost her touch.

She has another problem, too, and it smells like wet dog.

Max: AKA the naked man with rip-cord tight muscles that stumbled out of the woods near Morgan’s house, ranting about curses and conspiracies and a coven of witches.

Is he a werewolf? Well, yes. But he’s also the only one who can help her defeat whatever evil is threatening her adopted hometown. That is, if they manage to not kill each other first...

Zach Stivers lives with his wife in Virginia, at the foot of the Shenandoah National Park. He loves to tell people they do lots of hiking in their free time, but usually they just go for a short stroll in the woods with their dogs and then stop off for a drink or two at the local brewery. That still counts as hiking, right? He has a degree in English Literature from Florida State University, runs really slow half-marathons, and leads an overly-competitive book club that reads a book a week ... or else.

GUEST POST

Can you, for those who don't know you already, tell something about yourself and how you became an author? 

When I was in third grade, I had this weird quirk where everything I did needed to have some over-the-top grandiose purpose behind it. I remember my elementary teachers would assign us five to ten vocabulary words, and instruct us that for homework we had to use each of them in a sentence. For some reason, I felt obliged to make my homework much harder than it needed to be, and chose to add the additional task of using the vocab words all in one overarching, connecting story. So each week I would turn a little two or three page story into my teacher, with my vocabulary words sort-of hidden within, instead of just writing ten simple, unrelated sentences. 


Looking back now, I’m awfully appreciative of those teachers. I did this in third, fourth and fifth grade if I remember correctly. Any of those teachers could have asked me to stop, to just do the assignment as normal so they didn’t have to spend the extra time going through my silly little elementary school stories and find out if I used the words properly. But they didn’t. So, Ms. Wappes and Ms. Darbyshire and Ms Jones, THANK YOU. 


Instead of that, they gave me lots of compliments and they began reading my stories out to the class, and commending me on going above and beyond. A couple of my other classmates started doing this too, and it led to us having weekly stories read out loud to the class by different students. Naturally, we kept pushing the envelope, and made the stories all interconnect, week to week, sort of like an elementary school soap opera. And my stories were definitely not the best of the class! I remember being blown away by a couple of them. But that’s when, I think, the book-writing bug got sort of lodged in my head permanently. I learned that it was more fun to conjure up some imaginary world and concoct an elaborate story than just churn out mindless sentences. 


I never did anything nearly as impressive or ambitious in math or social studies or science class, that’s for sure. But since third-grade, story-telling has been an ingrained part of me, a sort-of understood trait, like having blonde hair and blue eyes. It’s in my genes, maybe. I can’t remember a time in my life where I didn’t want to be a story-teller, after that.  



Tell us something really interesting that's happened to you! 


When I was in middle school, three friends and I got stuck on a sandbar off Captiva when a massive shark swam between us and the beach. (Massive to us at the time, at least) Being Florida boys, we knew the difference between shark and dolphin, and this creature was bigger than a dolphin, and not coming up to the surface to breathe. It swam back and forth, big dorsal fin and vertical tail fin slicing through the waves, just circling up and down the length of the sandbar. We felt like it was just waiting for us to make the mistake of leaving the sandbar and entering the deeper water. I remember the tide was rising and it got to the point where we couldn’t wait any longer, and we had to book it and swim for the beach when the shark was at its furthest point from us. We splashed and stomped and swam and caused a whole bunch of commotion and all made it back safe.


Looking back, I’m pretty sure the shark was just looking for food along the shore, like stingrays and fish, not hunting four scrawny pre-teens caught having a mud fight on the sandbar. 


If you knew you'd die tomorrow, how would you spend your last day? 


Probably setting up an elaborate, over-complicated plan where I would write dozens of letters and then schedule them to be sent out sporadically over the next year to my wife. Initially, she would struggle to move on from me and this would hinder her ability to learn how to be happy and find true love again, but ultimately she’ll realize that her happiness isn’t tied to me, or my letters, or to anyone else but her own self, and she’ll be grateful for the extra year of goodbyes that she got to have with her husband. (Idk, whatever the plot for PS I LOVE YOU was- kinda toxic, if you ask me)


Who is your hero and why? 


Steve Irwin. He was one of the most pure-hearted men in the world, and his commitment to- and passion for- animal conservation was so authentic and admirable. Seeing his children shoulder his legacy as young adults themselves now is so heartwarming! The animals deserved an advocate like him, and if all of us pursued our passion as single-mindedly as Steve Irwin pursued his, the world would be a much better place- for humans and for the rest of the living creatures on Earth. 


What kind of world ruler would you be? 


From my office chair, it’s easy to say that I’d be a loving, democratic world ruler who would establish a system of governance that ensured the right to food, water, housing and recreation to all mankind, then step down and set a precedent for all future world leaders…


But, based on almost all of human history, the odds are high that I’d probably easily be corrupted, fall in love with the power and the glory and rule like a tyrannical dictator that only looked out for the good of the few, and eventually would be violently overthrown.

Yesterday, a curse. Today, an inheritance. Tomorrow...may never come.

Beck Teller's family bounced from one rental to another his entire life. When his father inherits an ancestral home, he and his siblings are thrilled to finally settle down, especially somewhere his family has roots. And those roots run deep—right to the on-site family cemetery where tombstone dates prove too many members met untimely fates.

When Beck and his two brothers begin experiencing inexplicable things, they grasp for practical explanations. Then their little sister gets a warning from beyond the grave, and the time for rationalizing is over. They pledge to protect their family and set out to identify the source of the danger and a means to defeat it.

They never expected to discover their house is haunted by a vengeful spirit who has vowed to destroy every descendant in the Teller line.

Centuries earlier, three Teller brothers battled the evil entity. Since then, her wrath has caused generations of suffering and untimely deaths. Now, three more Teller brothers will stand against this wicked being. But this time, the curse must be broken. If they win the final fight, they'll banish the malevolent force forever. But if they lose, their family line ends...and they unleash hell on Earth.

*Book Tour & Giveaway* Prophecy of Gons and Crows

 

 

Is she the hero or the villain of the story?


Prophecy of Gods and Crows

Clan of Shadows Book 1

by C.D. Britt

Genre: Dark Fantasy

“...Orphan...”
“...Outcast...”
“...Witch.”
Bryn Kenneally has spent her entire life hiding in the shadows, hated for things she cannot control.
But now, those very shadows are coming to life, bringing dark secrets from a past she cannot remember. Lives hang in the balance as those very secrets weave a future beyond her control.
As the past unravels and her purpose becomes clear, there’s only one thing left for her to figure out: is she the hero or the villain of the story?

 

Amazon * Bookbub * Goodreads


C.D. Britt began her writing journey when her husband told her she needed to use her excessive imagination to write stories as opposed to creating a daily narrative for him. Ever since she penned her first words, life has been a lot more peaceful for him.

She currently resides in Texas where she has yet to adapt to the heat. Her husband thrives in it, so unfortunately, they will not be relocating to colder climates anytime soon.

Their two young children would honestly complain either way.

When she is not in her writing cave (hiding from the sun), she enjoys ignoring the world as much as her children will allow with a good book, music, and vast amounts of coffee (until it’s time for wine).

C.D. Britt is the author of the Reign of Goddesses series, Clan of Shadows series, and the upcoming Blood of Saviors series.

After years of writing romance under the pen name Blake Allwood, I decided to pursue my other genre passion, fantasy and science fiction. Adam J. Ridley is the reality of that pursuit.

My husband of 28 years and I have had an adventurous life. We’ve had many businesses, we’ve raised over twelve foster children, two of which we adopted, and had at least two professional careers.

To say we are people who seek experiences is an understatement.

As I’ve grown older, my passions seem to be better reflected in my imagination. Fantasy, urban fantasy, and science fiction all allow me to escape into worlds that transcend life. I’ve always been a major lover of fantasy writing and started reading it at a rather young age.

My husband and I travel full-time now in our RV (caravan for those not in the United States.) We’ve been doing this since 2017 and y’all, we love it.

Please join me on Facebook, and other social media sites. I work hard to be easily accessible to my readers, cause you all are the reason for all the lovely work!
