  Darn it. Lol ah well. I would scan it myself, but I can't afford a scanner or 
the software for it. Can't wait to see what you have.  I'm always looking for 
new authors

    Do you happen to have "Song Of The Deragon" By Tracy Hickman? I've been 
dying to read it.

    Personal Demons by Stacia Kane

    Megan promises listeners to her new radio call-in show that she'll "slay 
their personal demons," and they believe her. So do the personal demons... 
although
    she doesn't know it, Megan is the only human without a demon on her 
shoulder! Megan and her allies - a demon lover who both protects and seduces 
her with
    devilish intensity, a witch with poor social skills, and three cockney 
guard demons - have to deal not only with the personal demons, but a 
soul-sucker,
    ghosts of Megan's past, and a reporter who threatens to destroy Megan's 
career!

      Here are a couple.  If you're not interested in either of these, no 
worries.  There will always be more.  *Smile*

      I haven't read any of these so I can't say how good or bad they are.

       

      The Man with the Golden Torc by Simon R. Green
      For ages, Eddie Drood and his family have kept humanity safe from the 
things that go bump in the night. But now one of his own has convinced the rest 
of
      the family that Eddie's become a menace, and that humanity needs to be 
protected from him. So he's on the run, using every trick in the book, magical 
and
      otherwise, hoping he lives long enough to prove his innocence...

        Ok.

        I'll look through my stack of books and let you know what I've got.  
Most of it is urban fantasy so I may not have many regular fantasy books at the 
moment.  I'm always getting more though.

          Oh, yes, that would be great. As long as its not modern fantasy, I 
will take it on. I love non-stop action. Just let me know when you want me to 
get started. I'm a huge fan of fantasy. I can't seem to read anything else. Lol 
I've tried, and it doesn't work.

          Hi, Ann.

          If you like fantasy and urban fantasy, I have a pile here.

          I can see what I've got if you're interested.

           

          I don't read through my scans before I submit them but I do a lot of 
cleanup work and I'm always willing to rescan pages if they're too jumbled.

            I love Jim Butcher. If this book is anything like his work, I would 
love to read it.

            Hi, Christina, this sounds very gritty in the Jim Butcher school of 
writing. How do you like Sagara's writing? Regards, Kim. P.S.: Sorry, I'm 
already working on something right now (you know what). Regards, Kim.

            Hello.

            I'm looking for a proofer for Cast in Shadow by Michelle Sagara.  
The previous proofer didn't enjoy the book as much as she thought she would.

            I put the synopsis below.

            Christina

             

            Long Synopsis: = Seven years ago Kaylin fled the crime-riddled 
streets of Nightshade, knowing that something was after her. Children were 
being murdered
            -- and all had the same odd markings that mysteriously appeared on 
her own skin. ...Since then, she's learned to read, she's learned to fight and 
she's
            become one of the vaunted Hawks who patrol and police the City of 
Elantra. Alongside the winged Aerians and the immortal Barrani, she's made a 
place for
            herself, far from the mean streets of her birth. But children are 
once again dying, and a dark and familiar pattern is emerging. Kaylin is 
ordered back
            into Nightshade with a partner she knows she can't trust, a Dragon 
lord for a companion and a device to contain her powers -- powers that no other 
human
            has. Her task is simple -- find the killer, stop the murders... and 
survive the attentions of those who claim to be her allies!

             

            Personal Demons by Stacia Kane

            Megan promises listeners to her new radio call-in show that she'll 
"slay their personal demons," and they believe her. So do the personal 
demons... although
            she doesn't know it, Megan is the only human without a demon on her 
shoulder! Megan and her allies - a demon lover who both protects and seduces 
her with
            devilish intensity, a witch with poor social skills, and three 
cockney guard demons - have to deal not only with the personal demons, but a 
soul-sucker,
            ghosts of Megan's past, and a reporter who threatens to destroy 
Megan's career!
