An excerpt from Lines of Strength and Grace: Taking the hardest step: asking for help

At moments like this, Dyna wished for a bit less understanding and freedom, and more of the clear knowledge of what was expected of her that she'd had growing up. Yes, she'd chafed under all the rules, especially after she met Hildar.

But she'd had fairly easy choices then as well. Do what she should, or accept the consequences of refusing. Which generally resulted in her doing what she should have in the first place.

All the while, she got precious little practice in deciding for herself without considering whether rebellion or even protest was worth it.

"Since you brought me here," she said, "you must trust this woman's abilities. So I shall at least hear what she has to say."

Berga lowered her head in the closest thing to a bow she'd offered as they walked.

"As you like. I'll accompany you for introductions, then follow your wishes about whether you'd prefer me to stay or go."

Berga took several steps before Dyna got her own feet moving.

Autorenporträt

Kari Kilgore started her first published novel Until Death in Transylvania, Romania, and finished it in Room 217 at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado, where Stephen King got the idea for The Shining. That's just one example of how real world inspiration drives her fiction.

Kari's first published novel Until Death was included on the Preliminary Ballot for the Bram Stoker Award for Outstanding Achievement in a First Novel in 2016. It was also a finalist for the Golden Stake Award at the Vampire Arts Festival in 2018.

Recent professional short story sales include three to Fiction River anthology magazine, with the first due out in the September issue. Kari also has two stories in a holiday-themed anthology project with Kristine Kathryn Rusch due out over the holidays in 2019.

Kari writes fantasy, science fiction, horror, and contemporary fiction, and she's happiest when she surprises herself. She lives at the end of a long dirt road in the middle of the woods with her husband Jason Adams, various house critters, and wildlife they're better off not knowing more about.

Kari's novels, novellas, and short stories are available at www.spiralpublishing.net, which also publishes books by Frank Kilgore and Jason Adams.
