The Blind Woman

There once was a small village high up in the mountains. In that village, there lived an old, old woman all alone in a cold little hut a little ways away from the rest of the houses. No visited her and she never came out. Some said, in hushed tones by the fireside when the harsh wind blew, that she never came out because she was a witch and would lose her powers if seen by normal humans. There once was a small village high up in the mountains. In that village, there lived a small, thin boy with no home. His mother had thrown him out, thinking him cursed, and he made a living running errands for those who would let the boy with the uneve

I Met a Young Man Yesterday

I met a young man yesterday. He's not a new face. I see him every day For the past two months. Youthful. Fair of form and face But with such old eyes. I met him for the first time yesterday. He was a soldier, he told me. I asked If he had seen combat. He said yes. I asked him what it was like. "Terrible. And terrifying. Everything is hell around you: The sound of metal on metal, on bone, The yells of your comrades, your enemies, The screams of the wounded, the dying Who know that they will never see home again. All you can smell is smoke, burnt flesh and hair, The mud churned up underfoot, The scent of waste—dying m

Wolf - Part Two

A year passes, mostly uneventfully. I crouch beside my fire, waiting impatiently for my dinner to finish cooking. Hunting had taken too long today—sunset is approaching and I haven't eaten yet. A stick cracks. My head snaps up. The girl in the red cloak is standing there, dark eyes shifting between me and the rabbits roasting on the spits over the fire. There are leaves and twigs in her wild hair and dirt on her body, and she's lost the soft roundness of childhood over the last year. Her body is toned with lean muscles, though she's still soft in the slight, narrow curve of her hips and gentle swell of her breasts. She wears only

Literature

Wolf - Part One

I hide in the shadows, watching the girl in the vivid red cloak. It's such a bright red, the color of blood or rich wine—it puts the sunset to shame. She's young—younger than I, though that can't be hard. I feel a thousand years old, bearing the weight of my curse alone for weeks and months and decades. I can scarcely remember being young, on the cusp of manhood. I only remember the great grey creature, the blood, the burning pain of the bite. I can remember what happened after that, even through the fever-haze. I can remember my twin brother crying out to me, rememb

Rising Sun

0 min read

Rising Sun has officially released (which is weird as hell--I mean, fantastic.  Fantastically odd)!!!  Links are below, and most links have a synopsis of the novel.  Hint: Barnes & Noble is probably the cheapest option for a physical copy.  2nd Hint: Tate Publishing is the only place (currently) to get an ebook edition. Note: The author has no control over the price of the book. Happy Valentine's Day/Singles' Awareness Day/Release Day!! Barnes & Noble --> http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/rising-sun-victoria-weber/1108034298?ean=9781616632540&itm=10&usri=rising+sun Tate Publishing --> http://www.tatepublishing.com/bookstore/book.php?w=97816

OMG RISING SUN!

0 min read

Sorry about the blatant advertising, but I'm so excited that I have to put this here (even though no one ever reads this thing).  Especially because things are now legitimately official, with a release date and such. MY FIRST BOOK IS NEARING RELEASE!! Rising Sun  is a Young Adult Epic Fantasy/Paranormal Romance novel. Orphaned at birth, all fifteen-year-old Kirin wanted was to belong to the world of magic, dragons, and warrior males she was raised in. But when she accidentally burns a fellow classmate, her destiny rises up to greet her - a destiny she wants no part in. Kirin is the Adkisha, the awaited hero, and it is her duty to save her

'To the Well Organized Mind...'

0 min read

"...death is but the next great adventure." ~Professor Albus Dumbledore. Sadly, my mind is apparently not well organized. Thank you all for your prayers.  Unfortunately, my mom's horse, Gus, had to be put down on February 17th.  He had broken free in the night and had laid down, and his leg had re-broken.  We don't know if his leg had re-broken and he absolutely NEEDED to lay down, or if he couldn't take standing tied to the wall anymore and lay down, and his leg re-broke.  Ultimately, the order doesn't matter. We have sent some of his tail hair to be made into bracelets as a final memorial, and he's being cremated - we'll get to keep the
