BLURB:
Glitching between dimensions wasn't supposed to be my life, but sometimes you have to dance with the darkness.
I should be dead. Shot twice through the chest. But the Embassy saved me because I’m a one-of-a-kind freak who blips to worlds they can’t reach. Now I’m their personal mule, raiding collapsing planets to fatten their coffers. Lucky me.
And things have gone from bad to worse. My old team is being held hostage, my family’s in danger, and the darkness hunts me across realities. My one shot to end this living hell? Take down the Embassy, save Charlie, and torch the whole rotten system. Simple, right? One misstep though, and we’re toast. Alien breach. Apocalypse. End scene.
If I fail, the darkness won’t stop until it swallows us whole.

EXCERPT
Heaviness blankets me. A childish part of me wanted to hang onto the idea that I was an instrumental part of saving the universe. More than that though, I’d hoped that Cory slipped me his wedding ring so he could save me. For a single stupid moment, I thought this was about me. Why do I keep doing this? Falling for the idea that people care about me for who I am and not what I can do for them? The only people who loved me like that are my family, and I can’t ever reach them again without inadvertently siccing the darkness on them. I take a deep, hollow breath before asking, “What do you want, Cory?”

Guest Post:
Things That Inspire Me and Why I’m a bit like a crow. I’m inspired by smooth rocks and shiny sea glass and driftwood that looks like nature already carved it into something cool. I’m sometimes overly loud and excited—especially when I’m eating something deliciously unhealthy. I’m inspired by digging in soil to plant stuff, because it smells amazing and growing anything from seed always feels magical. I’m inspired by weeding because I’ve got to take my anger out on something (sorry thistles). I’m also inspired by people watching because, as a writer, it’s impossible for me to flesh-out characters realistically without proper field research. How people move, how they talk, what they say even when they’re not speaking, I can’t render any of that on the page without some quality people watching time. That said, I’m an introvert. As such, I have to ration my people time carefully because crowds are a love/hate relationship for me. Which takes me back to getting out into nature with nothing but birdsong, petrichor, pretty pebbles, and the sound of water nearby. So basically. I’m inspired by not peopling and then peopling in intervals Thanks so much for having me on the blog. What inspires all of you? I’d love to hear it.

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
At a young age, Shelly Campbell wanted to be an air show pilot or a pirate, possibly a dragon and definitely a writer and artist. She’s piloted a Cessna 172 through spins and stalls, and sailed up the east coast on a tall ship barque—mostly without projectile vomiting. In the end, Shelly found writing and drawing dragons to be so much easier on the stomach. Shelly writes speculative fiction ranging from grimdark fantasy, to sci-fi and horror. She’d love to hear from you.
