How about a snippet from your book that is meant to intrigue and tantalize us?

“Life is burden and death and mythstory; it is transformation and regeneration and rebirth; it is temptation and danger, and being fearless in the face of these, and using your voice despite your fears. It is frightening and thrilling; an adventure where you’re either the hero or the villain or both … and so is death. That is the dark court. That is Carnival. That is Canboulay dla Shamhna.” …. And that is Nescada.

Quote from Anderson Boyce, fictional primary school teacher in Nescada: Kindler of Flames, Chapter 28: Canboulay dla Shamhna. Copyright © 2014 K. L. Abbott. All rights reserved.
