| Bio: | Welcome to the ramblings of Karen L. Kincy, a shockingly juvenile novelist in western Washington. I'm currently riding the querying rollercoaster. Warning: this blog may contain more goofiness than professionalism. But really, I'm quite sane. I also go by Ravelda on the Blue Boards (http://www.verlakay.com/boards/index.php).
Writing UNSEEN, a YA urban fantasy about a freshman in college who wants people to see him as an artist, not an albino, then discovers his not-quite-human girlfriend might be able to help.
Wrote OTHER, a YA urban fantasy about a shapeshifter girl who struggles with her identity while trying to catch a serial killer targeting paranormal people like her.
Wrote half of THE DARK AND THE GLITTERING, a YA historical urban fantasy novel about werewolves from enemy clans who fall in love.
Wrote CELANDINE'S WINGS, a YA fantasy novel about an albino winged girl.
Wrote RAVELDA, a YA fantasy novel about a werewolf girl's adventures. Winner of honorable mention in Smart Writers 2006 Write It Now! contest.

*FRIENDING POLICY*
Most of my juiciest posts are friends-only, so friend me and I'll see if I want you reading my scandalous secrets. (No titillation expressed or implied.) If you don't already know me, please introduce yourself in a comment. I may periodically prune my friends list when it gets too massive to read daily. |
