Inspired by the tradition of poetic interest in Zen, Spires explores the noisy space of the mind, interrogating the necessary divide between the social persona that navigates the world and the artist's secret self. With vivid, careful attention to the minute details of everyday moments, A Memory of the Future observes, questions, and meditates on the ordinary, attempting to make sense of the boundaries of existence.As the poems move from Zen reflections outward into the identifiable worlds of Manhattan, Maine, and Maryland's Eastern shore, houses, both real and imagined, become metaphorical extensions of the self and psyche.

In book one of the Dragons from Dragonose: Blain
Barrymire is a dragon shifter from the land of Dragonose. He came to Earth several years ago to search
for his mate, and in the meantime, established a powerful business empire based
out of his castle in Iceland. When
interviewing for the position of his personal assistant, his attention is drawn
to a resume from an N. Clayton. He
assumes the candidate is a man, and is shocked when it turns out that not only
is she a female, but also his mate!
Natasha Clayton is out of options and time. The High Council of Others considers her a
ticking time bomb because her powers didn’t manifest in the usual timeframe. She’s part demon/pixie, and part angel, and
the council is confused and worried as to why her powers haven't come to light. When she steps into Blain's castle for her
interview, she doesn't expect the life-altering changes that are ahead of her.
Blain and Natasha soon face bigger problems than
worrying about Natasha’s hidden powers, or the Council of Others. Blain's king has called him home to defend
against the imminent threat of a long-standing enemy’s attack.
When the unthinkable happens, and Blain’s dragon
is seriously injured, will Natasha’s love and newfound abilities be enough to
see Blain through?
