Read an excerpt:
My senses snapped back with sharp clarity. I laid on my back staring at dappled sunlight through a canopy of green leaves. My fingers curled around the soft dirt and twigs beneath them. I was afraid to move, unsure of where I was or what had happened. Hadn’t I just killed myself?I turned my head enough to see forest to my right. The same on the left. I chanced sitting up a bit and propped myself up on elbows. Forest in front. My gaze fell to my legs.“What the hell??I wore camo. Ugh. But I wasn’t fat. I looked at my hands. They seemed older. My boobs! They were perfect, though covered in more khaki and brown camouflage. I pulled a strand of hair in front of me. Blonde.Now my heart was pumping.I scurried to my feet trying to take in more of myself and my surroundings. I wore full military garb with a hand gun strapped to my hip. A really big gun lay on the ground next to where I woke up at the edge of a camp with a fire and tents, and everything.And me. From what I could see, my body looked perfect, just like Becky Greenwood, the cheer captain. I bet my face was too. I bet I even had blue eyes. I must be in heaven. But why camo?“Damn it! Who ordered the newbie?”I spun to face the gruff male voice behind me. There at the edge of the camp stood a group of five people that my mind struggled to assimilate. A knight in shining armor, a female samurai, and another man dressed in a gold foil jumpsuit stared at me.The man upfront, who had spoken, wore camo pants like mine and a black shirt. A woman next to him eyed me. She looked like a druid or monk and carried a staff. In a thick Irish accent she snarled.“Welcome ta hell, brat.”
About the Author
Who
is E.M. Havens? I’m a lot of things. The word that seems to define me most
at the moment is mom. It can be all consuming. Not only am I a mom of
three (one of them is a teenager…pity me), but I also home-school (pity
me more). I share this awesome responsibility with the love of my life, best
friend, and soul-mate husband.
Add
to that, the twenty-five chickens, twelve turkeys, ten guineas, nine pigs,
three barn cats, two Great Pyrenees guardian dogs, a Chihuahua, a house
cat, and a goose, it makes for one crazy, full, and certainly entertaining
life.
Somewhere in there I find the time to write. I started out
young writing poems, then moved on to songs. I actually have a Bachelor
in Music with a secondary in Science because I can’t stand English. Yes,
the writer hates English. I like to read the story for the experience
of reading the story, not to nitpick each letter and comma. But I digress.</

I
eventually found blogging and really enjoyed sharing my life that way.
When an unfortunate turn of events separated me from my music
equipment, I decided to use my overactive imagination, my love of
reading, and my new found hobby, prose writing, to release some of my
creative energy. I wrote my first novel and loved the experience.
Fate War: Alliance is actually the second novel I wrote and the first to be
published. Now I’m working on my third and several sequels to Fate
War!
So
that’s pretty much me, sitting in the Arbuckle Mountains of Oklahoma,
reading, writing, collecting eggs from the coop, and being a schoolmarm.
It’s a pretty great life.
