Do You Daydream?

Jan17

In my Demon Guardian Series, one of the teens has out of body experiences, which causes her to appear to be daydreaming in school. In Deidre’s Secret, the teen story, and her story as a grownup in Bound by Danger, Deidre has premonitions of things that will occur, and so again, people oftentimes believe she is daydreaming.

Don’t both of those situations sound a lot cooler than: I zoned out and was daydreaming? Only it’s no fun, because they can’t tell anybody that, who would ultimately believe them.

So the thing of it is–I’m not really daydreaming. I’m plotting my next great novel. Sounds good, doesn’t it?

What about you? Have a perfectly good excuse for zoning out when someone’s talking to you–the teacher (sorry, Prof), parents, the boss, friends, the dog (this one’s for you, Tom!)

You see, there’s nothing more boring than telling the truth, sometimes. So make up a good story!

In the moon shot I shared yesterday, the moon wasn’t really great, but I wanted to show off the North Star above it. With this one, I thought it was cool that the moon was reflected off the clouds as if it was reflecting off water.

Back to Jaguar Pride!

And no more daydreaming or out-of-body experiences or psychic phenomenon for me. Strictly time for writing.

What about you?

Lady Kersta has her story next. But in the meantime, the ladies do go on adventures, facing dangers they never knew existed, learn they have powers as they come of age, and well, now I’m giving away an ebook copy of one of the books to one commenter!

But everything changes when a wizard pits beast and man against each other in Inherian–all because of the loss of the Scepter of Salvation and she must return it to their kingdom.

Princess Talamaya and her friends, Lady Kersta and Lady Mexia, must retrieve the Scepter of Salvation when her brother is poisoned.Visions plague Talamaya of a world beyond her own, of a destiny she has to fulfill.

She must retrieve the scepter or the kingdom is lost…

The Magic of Inherian: The Mage of Monrovia, Book 2

Ebook By Terry Spear
Category: Fiction »  Fantasy » Romance – Fantasy


An apprentice of the mage they had destroyed earlier, now threatens Inherian once again. But when Mexia arrives at Langdon to become school trained, she learns the school will not permit a woman to attend. But she must destroy the mage’s apprentice, and she cannot do so without the training. She must use the magic she has learned to discover a way to defeat the apprentice before it is too late.

Mexia has already done much more than most school- trained mages when she and her companions had gone in search of the scepter of salvation. But now one of the apprentices of the evil wizard they had destroyed, has stolen his spell book and plans to take up where he had left off, and she has to try and stop him.

Mexia believes the only way for her to defeat the mage is to become school trained like he was with the eventual goal of becoming a high wizard–the first of her kind in Inherian. But the current headmaster denies her entrance because she’s a woman. Though if she can get the former headmaster’s recommendation, she may attend.

And that’s the beginning of the trouble.

First, there’s the wizard.
Then, the immovable headmaster.
And then, the circle of misfortunes.
It all goes downhill from there…

Mage of Monrovia

She wanted to be a school trained mage…but everything stands in her way.

Have you ever applied for a job or tried to do something that others didn’t feel you should do–play games–like Rudolph the Reindeer, or whatever because you didn’t fit whatever they believed should be the criteria?

When I was applying for jobs after earning an MBA and had been an Army officer, I applied at a university where the good old boys were shocked that the Army officer was not a man. That happened more than once to me, even while on active duty, which was the basis for having written these stories. Anyone can do any job if they have the proper skills and determination. 🙂

Have a super great Thursday!
