I rewrote Rhyonna's story in the write-a-thon sponsored by the Clarion Foundation in 2011 after my computer wiped off the story in 1999. I cried a lot, and did have an old version for 1990. I started the story when I was a child, I have the first illustration and with new drawings for a new version of the story in 1986 for my daughter and her friends.
Over the years with many rewrites with more adventures for the Faery , whose name is now RHYONNA. And subpolts including familiars, teaching flying, and her friends. In 2012 finished the story - and with more edits from friends and professional editors, to e-publish a paperback and e-book.
Now doing the edits on Rhyonna with the East Bay Critique group, my buddies from SCBWI, Society of Children Book Writers and Illustrators; however, I do plan to self-publish Rhyonna's story, then having a party in my yard, which is almost finished for the fairies and elves and trolls, and whoever else good and devious, who might live in my garden.
