DUSTY THE DEMON HUNTER
Coming soon will be the 7th in my Dusty the Demon Hunter series. I've not blogged about her before but she's an interesting young woman/demon. She rides a motorcycle, throws a mean Unicorn rope, hefts a beautiful blue-bladed sword and is what you might call a 'Kick-ass Teen'. I like her - a lot.
I remember the first time I 'met' Dusty. I was sitting at my computer one Saturday evening and it was almost as though she came in, sat right by my side and began to dictate her story to me, the tale came to me so easily.
Before the evening was over, I'd done almost 8,000 words and I had ventured into a whole new aspect of writing, one that I never thought I'd be able to write - Young Adult.
The first scene is rather steamy and I was very worried about whether it would pass for YA - my daughter said that it most definitely would NOT be suitable for teens so I calmed it down a little.
After six stories about Dusty and her adventures, I've begun to think about a full novel about her. I think I can pull it off because there are a lot of demons in the world for her to be dealing with. I've got it all mapped out in my head. There are going to be a few more short stories involving the Demon Hunter teen but while I'm writing those, I'll also be writing her full story, with a good back-story to go with it.
So far, Dusty has met an incubus, another half demon teen, harpies, vampires, Santa, a doppelganger or two, goblins, a cacodemon, mega-maggots and the devil himself. Who knows what's going to be in Dusty's future? The only thing I'm certain of is that she's never going to lead a dull life.
Perhaps an Autumn release for her then? We shall see.
I've included the first part of Dusty's first story, just to whet your appetite so to speak.

TROUBLE X 3 (BOOK 3)
Something is disturbing Dusty’s sleep and she wants to know what – or who – it is.
A vampire wants her help – it seems odd that such a powerful being should need the help of a half-demon but Dusty is curious and she and Hunter make preparations for their safety before going along with the plan.
The plan is not exactly as it would seem and Dusty soon realises that when dealing with vampires, it’s best to stay alert and at a safe distance.
