Our "W" Authors 

Ward, Emily

Emily Ward is the author of Passages, Finding Fiona, and The Protectors series. One of her first stories featured a young girl whose doll came to life. The rest is history. She spent years writing mainly fanfiction (thank you, J.K. Rowling!), but has since ventured into originality. When it comes to fiction, she writes mainly young adult, contemporary, and fantasy. She also writes nonfiction, ranging from stories of her travels to thoughts on the Bible. Aside from writing, she loves reading, traveling, learning about God, sociology, religion, and Reeses sticks. Currently, she lives in Salem, Oregon with her husband Chris and their cats.

Wylde, Kit

Kit Wylde is one of Marci Baun's pseudonyms. She appeared in 2000 with a short romance story titled Last Chancewhen Wild Child was a magazine. That short story morphed into the Last Chance erotic romance novella that sells at Freya’s Bower today. She has another eBook that is published through Wild Child titled Hieroglyphs as well as a few stories in a couple of charity anthologies. Hieroglyphs also has romance but it’s more of a paranormal thriller. You can find her work at either Wild Child Publishing or Freya’s Bower, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, All Romance eBooks, and Bookstrand.

If you would like either Hieroglyphs or Last Chance “signed,” you can request this through KindleGraph.com.

Although I haven’t written anything as Kit for a few years, I hope to do so again in the near future.

HIEROGLYPHS by Kit Wylde

Title: Hieroglyphs

Author: Kit Wylde

Publisher: Wild Child Publishing

To purchase: http://www.wildchildpublishing.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=84&products_id=314

Book Blurb: When a new hieroglyphic alphabet is discovered on an ancient Egyptian scroll, expert archaeologist Joslyn Wetherly is called in to decipher it. Joslyn is obsessed with the scroll, and that obsession threatens her marriage. 

But soon her life is threatened as the secrets of the scroll prove dangerous. Before Joslyn realizes what is happening, she is embroiled in a rivalry between two long-dead pharaohs, their Egyptian gods, and past life karmas. 

Will Joslyn survive the secrets revealed in the scroll? Or will she be the next victim of the ancient feud?

Review: Kit Wylde's Hieroglyphs summons ancient Egypt through the reincarnation of revenge, justice, and everlasting love. Joslyn and Peter's relationship is touching and written so realistically I believed every moment of their pain and adoration for each other. Wylde blended the ancient Egyptian scenes seamlessly with the modern ones. The writing contained beautiful details and edge-of-your-seat suspense. As a reader, I found it hard to put the story down or out of my mind. As a former student of the Ancient Near East, I was most impressed by Wylde's descriptions of ancient Egypt and Egyptian archaeology. If you are a fan of The Mummy movies or ancient Egypt, you will especially love Hieroglyphs.
