Hi, everyone! I had a biopsy a week and a half ago. I’m mostly recovered, but I still have some pain. At any rate, I was able to order the second proof copy of She Who Speaks Through Silence. There was a small error that I’m getting fixed. This book should be published within the next week. I apologize for all of the delays.
The first proof copy of She Who Speaks Through Silence: An Anthology for Nephthys had some formatting errors. So I ordered another proof. It’s on its way now. I should get it in the next week or so.
The paperback version of Queen of the Hearth: An Anthology for Frigga is now available to purchase! It is also available in Kindle and PDF formats!

Solar Flares and Sunbeams: An Anthology for Ra and His Family
by Chelsea Luellon Bolton
Ra (Re) is the ancient Egyptian God of the Sun. He is the creator of the world, Gods and Humankind. He is both the warmth of the sun and its fiery, scorching rays. He is the one who travels through the sky during the day and through the Underworld at night, culminating in His defeat of the Evil Serpent. He merges with Wesir (Osiris), the King of the Underworld and renews the afterlife and creation.
He has many forms and syncretisms with other gods. He has many daughters who bear the title “Eye of Ra” which means they are His guardians and protectors who harness the fierce power of sun to dispose of enemies and evil forces.
