The Room Went Dark is a collection of short stories that all begin with the same line but veer off in all different, strange directions.

Daisy Chain is a collection of short stories that are linked by one line. The last line of each story is the first line of the next. They are otherwise unrelated. This is a concept that came to me a few years ago and it was an extremely fun project to complete. When a writer starts with one sentence and has no idea what the story will be about, it tends to unfold in unexpected ways. The subjects vary from love and betrayal to time travel to magic. I hope people enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Tulle is a very versatile medium that can be used to add depth and dimension to fabric art. I have used Tulle in different applications in every fabric piece that I have created. It can be used in water, snow, figures or for shading objects. Recently I have developed a technique where minimal fabric color is used in creating a piece. I then incorporate a gradation of several layers of Tulle to bring the image to life. Working with Tulle over the years and trying several different methods, I have developed a system that I find simplifies the process. In this book I will explain the process step by step, giving depth and dimension to simple objects such as a cube and a cylinder. I will then put these objects into application showing how easily they can be transformed into a single building, a cityscape and a lighthouse. You will be shown each application with and without the Tulle. This will allow you to see the benefit of using Tulle to add depth and dimension to your fabric art.

The Fabric of Bow Street is a chronological guide depicted in photographs and narratives of each step used in creating a fabric art piece titled Shadows on Bow Street. From the original photograph of Bow Street in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, through to the finished piece of fabric art, each step was photographed and a description given for everything from methods, techniques, fabrics used, and more. The main purpose of this book is as a reference and information guide for fabric artists. It would be possible for a fabric artist to complete this piece by following these steps; however, the function of this book is more as a teaching guide for techniques and procedures which were used in completing this piece. These techniques and procedures which include appliqué, reverse appliqué, stitching techniques, shading, and more, can then be adapted for numerous other projects. My hope is that you use the information that you will gather from my writings and illustrations to go out and create your own wonderful fabric art pieces. Whether it is a landscape, portrait, still life or abstract, there are examples in my book that can be used in any style that you choose.

She's ready for forever, but Zack is ready for something considerably less exclusive. The discovery awakens a part of Amy she never knew existed. How far will she go to guarantee the fantasy?
