An Interview with Robin Kirk - COVER REVEAL!!!

See the new cover for The Bond, first reveal here on SarahFoil.com!

The Bond sets us in an alt-world, the Weave, a matriarchal society where new generations are developed in labs. That’s a pretty familiar set-up, so I wanted to slowly start complicating it. Dinitra, my heroine, is like all the others, designed to serve the society. But she’s also an artist and sees things differently. Like so many of us, she feels she doesn’t belong. Instead of getting assigned to a top-level job, she’s sent to the military, where she’s expected to defend the Weave from what she thinks are a ragtag group of malcontents. As it turns out, there’s much more to the story! Oh, and I give her 12, a battle dog mixed with tiger and lynx and howler monkey (among other things). Dinitra has to learn to love 12, think differently, and trust her artist instincts to survive.

An Interview With Jessica Blank

Legacy is set in the 1990s in the Pacific Northwest against the backdrop of the punk and environmental movements. Ever since Alison’s golden-boy older brother Andy was killed in a drunk driving accident, her life’s been pretty rough. Her mom is in perpetual mourning, her dad left, and thanks to Andy’s hard-partying friends at school, her reputation is trashed. She’d been hoping to spend he senior year taking the path of least resistance, hanging out with her punk-rocker boyfriend Jeff and biding her time, but a massive fight with her mom pushes her over the edge, and she runs away with Jeff and his friend Dirtrat to join a Free State—an encampment of young people in the forest, protecting old-growth trees from being cut down by loggers.
