about me

N.B. Hello, everyone. First, thank you for the wonderful comments. I've been here all of 48 hours and I've received a lot of helpful feedback. To those who've commented and messaged me, I'm working on adding everyone's books to my watchlist, and I would be happy to swap, time permitting. I also have this thing against asking people personally to review my book. We'll see how that works out in a community like this.

You can follow me at my writing blog (linked below) or else on Twitter (I have two accounts: @abidingtime is the writing one and @matokah is the "everything else" one).

Any private comments can be directed to aya(at)secret-hands.org.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone.

I am quite complicated and very simple at the same time.

Recent graduate of law school.

Part-time figure skater, job-hunter, and coach.

Huge supporter of LGBT civil rights (wanna debate it? I bet I know more Con Law than you).

I'm 1/3 passion and 2/3 pride. I go by Aya online. I see sounds as colors and people as stories. The air is full of particles. My existence is a disturbance in mirrors that only I wholly & intrinsically see.

Oh, and I speak Hebrew. And French. Sometimes.

Welcome to my world.

We serve tea every day at 2.

Mezzanota Perpetua

Aya S

What happens if your mind matures but your body never does? Meet Veranese De Luca, child vampire and feline interpreter extraordinaire.


Considered a child of unfortunate circumstances in life, Vera's situation is unquestionably exacerbated after death simply by virtue of the nature of immortality itself. In love with the vampire who turned her, though forever cursed to remain in the body of a twelve year old girl, there was a reason the prohibition against child vampires was set in place all those centuries ago. Abhorred by her own kind and spiteful to humans herself, for decades Veranese relied only on her own survival instinct and the companionship of a few choice feline friends. Now what's a girl to do when a fifteen year old human boy begins to take an interest? What's a girl to do if she happens to be interested back? (N.B. This is a shortened version of Veranese's full story, broken up into short, easy to read chapters that end before Vera's human love interest enters the scene. If there's enough interest, I can upload more full-length chapters and continue her story. It promises to be an interesting ride.)

Hi Scott, Your pitch sort of drew me in to want to read this as one of the first among my now teeming watchlist. I have a background in religious studies and ancient near eastern history, so it would've been difficult for me to feel otherwise. First, a few things to note. You may have alread... view book

The pitch lured me in, I'll admit. I really just can't say no to extra-Biblical tales. First, an editing note, if you'll have me. When referring to a person, it's generally accepted that a comma be placed between the person's name and whatever was being said beforehand. For example: "This is m... view book

Hi, Christian. First, thanks for taking the time to comment on my book (and also friending me on FB and following me on Twitter). Much obliged. ;) Next, just one small, itty bitty thing.

Thank you to everyone who has commented thus far. I will try to respond to all of you in turn, time permitting. Additionally, I will also strive to look through everyone's own projects who has commented on mine and give you feedback (and back the book, as well, if I enjoy it). Thank you again... view book
