about me

I'm a 27 year old writer from Arizona. I've been telling stories since I was little, it's something I have always loved doing. I like to write stories that don't follow a standard formula. I want my readers to truly understand a characters motives, not just except that a bad guy is bad because good must fight evil. Each one of my stories always has a heart to it, no matter how dark or brutal the subject matter.

Lengthening Shadows: The Dark ....

J.M. Bates

An eternal shadow covers earth and the creatures of darkness flourish. The world nears its end, unless the Dark Princess can save it.


Locked away as a prisoner in a lonely tower, the Dark Princess dreamed of a life of freedom and the hope that one day she wouldn't be alone. It was her destiny to die for the Black Goddess, her father's lover, and give her immortal life. Nothing could change her fate, until the day she met a mysterious warrior known only as Archangel.
As earth nears its end the Dark Princess and Archangel discover the truth of her destiny and face insurmountable odds against maniacal Darkling, a cold-hearted Winter Queen, devilish demons and the perils of a world clouded by an endless night.

i swore i already commented on this. anyways, it was a nice read. there was good descriptions, especially when al shatian (sp?) was watching the princess. the premise is straight forward, which is a good thing, and the characters are off to an intriguing start. i like it. view book

the prologue was great and well written. the premise sounds interesting as well. the writing is very clean and crisp, with an edge to it that makes the dark parts stand out. im assuming the boy in the prologue turns out to be the killer, which is good for a prologue - to get some insight to such ... view book

the style of writing here is very professional and concise, characters emotions and expressions are summed up rather neatly in just a few words. your story feels like a fairy tale and would fit well among young women readers, of course that is obviously your target audience. i know that charlotte... view book

like the open. it takes you right in to luke's frustration. the premise reminds me of a john grisham novel - that sort of intrigue and suspense . i also found it unique that there was no dialogue in the first chapter, its all description. your writing style is very fitting for the story you are... view book
