EXCERPT

Lea made sure to rest before exhaustion set in. She felt as if the stars had aligned just for her when she awoke with some time to spare before her duty shift started. Seizing the moment, she decided to enjoy a leisurely stroll.

As Lea walked along the passageway, her path was illuminated by the radiant sunrise. She basked in the joyous warmth of the sun, complemented by the gentle caress of a cool breeze. The corridors of the Stellar Sentinel spacecraft were transformed into vibrant gardens, showcasing a stunning array of flowers and plants from various planets. Each bloom and leaf contributed to the tapestry of beauty and serenity that enveloped her.

The vibrant turquoise light of the passageway illuminated Lea’s eyes, which mirrored the vivid colors around her. A mere glance at Lea would reveal her origins from the distant planet Septarion.

Septarioneons were distinguished by their striking eyes: blue butterfly irises dotted with gold around the pupils, set against fluffy black eyelashes and golden eyebrows that created a stark contrast with their pale skin. Their faces bore intricate golden patterns and lines, each a unique birthmark that not only resembled a map of Septarion but also enhanced their enchanting allure. Although Septarioneons shared a humanlike form, they were taller and leaner, presenting a graceful deviation from the typical human silhouette.

One very important fact about Septarioneons is that they could transform into anything, that’s why their bodies were extremely flexible.

About the Authors

Dennis and Victoria Arnette, siblings who reside in a mountainous region of
the United States, have cherished outdoor activities and playing in nature
since their youth. Their childhood, marked by a joyful environment and a
close circle of friends, was filled with imaginative games where they
envisioned themselves as kings, queens, knights, and robbers. They climbed
trees, walls, and mountains, embracing every climbable challenge they
encountered. Their adventures were further enriched by various trips with
their parents. These experiences during their formative years naturally
shaped them into fun-loving, hardworking, and creative individuals with
vibrant imaginations.

Dennis and Victoria, while not professional writers, have always harbored
the ambition to collaborate on a writing project. From an early age they
were inspired by the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm. Their favorite
childhood moments were spent in the evenings, listening to their parents
read classic stories like “The Bremen Town Musicians,” “Snow
White,” “Little Red Riding Hood,” and “Cinderella”
before bedtime. This early exposure fueled their longstanding aspiration to
craft a fairy tale or a fictional story aimed at an adult audience.

During the stressful period of the pandemic, they embarked on a
lighthearted project to distract themselves and bring laughter to their
family. They soon realized that this project had far greater potential than
initially expected. They dedicated themselves to creating this beautiful
book, and sincerely hope you enjoy reading it as much as they enjoyed
writing it.

Growing Up Girl, Book I

 

Fiction

Date Published: September 10, 2024

 

 

In Growing Up Girl: Book One, a young Bernadette Aller floats through her
life – job to job, lover to lover, place to place. She is an untethered
spirit trying to find her way in a world that’s not been too kind.

Now, as she barrels toward her seventies, she wants to tell her story, not
because it’s hers alone, but because it’s a surprisingly common story. It’s
a story much of which happens behind doors that display the word
unspeakable. Bernadette hires Scully Trippe to ghost write, translating
Bernadette’s personal experience into the third person, in what might (or
might not) be a misguided attempt to extend the story’s reach.

The time frame is malleable, with the storytelling moving back and forth
through several stages of Bernadette’s life.

In this first book of the Growing Up Girl trilogy, BernadetteWorld is
populated with Patience, her housekeeper; Maddie, a former lover and now a
ghost; and Lucinda, a time traveler who drops in and out.

It’s a quirky group.

 

Cover artist is Matt Smith. The image of the five-year-old on the cover is
Matt’s mother whom he never met. In his own words, “Although I have no
memory of her, I treasure the stories of Lynn’s strength, stubbornness, and
ferocious loyalty. My hope is to bring her from the muted mysterious shadows
into the light with love.”

Caroline Fairless is a writer and a ceramic sculptor. She is a retreat
facilitator with a focus on the interdependence and connectedness of every

forms.

Over the past twenty years, Caroline and her partner Jim have been
fortunate to stitch back together three land parcels that once were one. One
of them borders on one of New Hampshire’s many small ponds. The other
two border a marsh that hosts otters, beaver, herons, turtles, geese, ducks,
and an occasional loon passing through.

In the New Hampshire summers, Caroline gardens and walks the dogs she and
Jim have rescued. New Hampshire winters will find her at her computer, still
walking dogs, and camping in front of the wood stove.
