The Awakening of the Dream Riders by Lynda Louise Mangoro - website and Guest Blogger.

Click the link for the website for The Awakening of the Dream Riders. Go and have a peek, it's fabulous! (And yes to the more observant of you the girl at the back of the picture has changed, Crystal is, well more Crystal like now!!)

I have a guest blogger today, author of The Awakening of the Dream Riders (as well as cover designer and website designer!) & my sister Lynda Louise Mangoro. Welcome to Lori's blog Lynda....

I must start by saying thank you to Lori for being a wonderfully supportive big sis! I would never have got this far with writing the book if it wasn't for her encouragement and expertise. Like Lori, I am a bookworm, and have always had the urge to write. In fact, I thought it was normal to want to write books, I thought it was something everyone wanted to do, but apparently not.

I have also always loved to draw, and in more recent years to design and create websites. I guess I'm an all round creative, and I'm lucky enough to be able to indulge all my passions as a freelance web developer and illustrator. And now finally as an author too!

Awakening of the Dream Riders is a story that I have been writing in my head for the last three years, and on the computer for about a year. The book is now in the final stages of editing and will be published soon. It's an adventure novel for young adults - aimed at 12+ readers. There are some character fact files on the website, and soon to be added are some games too. Here's the blurb:

On a quiet suburban street in a typical English sea-side town, Kyra Sutton makes an extraordinary discovery, a discovery that at first promises thrills and excitement but will soon prove to test the schoolgirl and her friends to the extreme, a discovery that will change the course of their lives forever.

Thanks for bearing with me, and thanks again to Lori for lending me her blog!

No problem Lynda, I truly love Dream Riders and it's been an honour to be the first to read it!
