The
Electric Girl

Genre:
YA SciFi Fantasy, Magic Realism
Polly
Michaels is trying to forget that her mom has cancer. She keeps busy
at school and plods through a normal social life. Until a freak
electrical storm and a unicorn appear in the orchard next to her
house.
Sy'kai
wakes on an orchard floor to the smell of rotting cherries and wet
earth. She doesn't know where she is-or what she is-but she knows
something is hunting her.
Polly
recruits her friends to find the mysterious creature she saw from her
window while Sy'kai, a confused shape-shifting endling from another
dimension tries to piece her mind back together. Once the human girls
find Sy'kai (whom they nickname Psyche) the mystery unravels and the
danger facing all of them comes into focus.
A
gritty struggle ranges throughout the girls' rural hometown and in
the wild terrain around it. All while two questions hang over their
heads. Can an alien deliver a miracle for a human mother? Can a group
of teens defeat an interdimensional demon?
Located
on BC’s beautiful West Coast, I write from my suburban home outside
Vancouver. I love writing about places and spaces with
rich history and visually fascinating elements as a backdrop for the
surreal and spectacular.
In
addition to my undergraduate degree in writing and literature, my
background also includes corporate communications and design. I am a
current member of the Federation
of BC Writers and SF
Canada.
When
not writing, I have a habit of breaking stuff and making stuff – in
that order – under the guise of my Etsy alter-ego Sleepless
Storyteller. I
share my eclectic home and lifestyle with my metalworking husband,
dancing daughter, and future rocket scientist son.
