    Hail the Queen

Welcome to Elfland

The Elf Life novel Revenge of the Elfbride is being serialized for free; there will be a more final ebook version later, but the online version is charityware

We were evicted a few years back and continue to struggle due to ongoing financial and health problems. We are not trying to pay off a mortage or anything big like that, so much as raise funds for groceries, to keep utilities from being shut off, and to take the cats to the vet.
