Bio:

My name is Nona King, an independent writing and editing professional.

Writing has been my passion since childhood. At the age of 16 I began writing my young adult fiction series Changing Scenes and several inspirational romance novels. Living through these characters seemed the only safe way for a shy girl like me to experiment with the choices and actions that came with life.

In college I changed my major three times, from Music to Teaching to English Literature. It was during this time I began writing skits, songs, and full-length plays for my home church, Canby New Life Foursquare. This afforded me the opportunity to direct, act, and even sing in front of an audience. It became one of the best experiences of my life.

In my late 20s, my friends introduced me to the wonderful realm of science fiction and fantasy through video games. In 1999 I created the website, The Mintfield, and posted both my original fiction and fan-fiction to the web. I also began submitting my writing to online publishing sites specializing in fan-fiction such as RPGamer [their fanfiction section is no more], Fanfiction.net, RPGfan, and IcyBrian.

In 2002, I dedicated The Mintfield entirely to my novellas, short stories, and poems written based on the characters and worlds I discovered through these games. One of my favorites of these fan-fiction novellas is a medieval/steampunk romance titled Terra, which has been re-released as Serra in the compendium Soul of the Mago. Names and places have been changed due to copyrights. The other, my military/sci-fi series Bookworms and Booya! is in the process of being re-written, also due to copyrights.

For my original fiction I created Angel Breath Books. In 2008, with my foray into the National Novel Writing Month and introduction to CreateSpace print-on-demand publishing, ABB blossomed into a small publishing company specializing in works of fantasy and romance. Its debut novel was my paranormal fantasy, To Save a Soul. Now ABB focuses on stories demonstrating the importance of honor, respect, and communication in relationships.

Our characters have a life of their own. In fact, many tread a path we would not dare. In that respect we all have something to learn from their waiting destiny, and it is that destiny ABB strives to tell. Janine, Marcus, the unnamed villain… they all have something to teach about the darker side of destiny.

General Information:
Exciting News!

My inspirational [historical] novel, Searching for Sara, is slated for release on December 9th in hardback, paperback, and digital formats. Would you be willing to host either a book review, author interview, giveaway, or simply a book launch announcement on your Blog and/or social network pages? The blog tour will run from Nov. 26 (Cyber Monday) through Christmas Eve, and all who participate will receive a free, signed copy [format of your choice] of my book.

Searching for Sara is not your run of the mill "romance", as the romantic feelings between Christopher and Sara are but a small facet of the story.Searching for Sara is the story of two people who face their daily tortures of fear and grief to find happiness.

Sara Little has an intimate knowledge of fear, faith her only constant. Then God calls her to put aside her past to pursue a life beyond servitude for the English aristocracy. A life in America.
Christopher Lake exists in a daily void of agony and grief, stripped of his wife, their unborn son, and his passion for art. All that remains to tempt him to live is that of his five-year-old daughter. But after almost two years of wallowing in sorrow and rage, even that is spent.

Searching for Sara is the tale of how these two people discover healing and laughter by following the call of their hearts to help others. You can read more about my book at the following link.
