| Stephanie M. Moore |
Author has written 16 stories for Romance, Nature, General, and Supernatural. Hello All! My name is Steph Moore. I am a 22 year old, fourth-year engineering student who enjoys taking time from my rigorous academic schedule to delve into my own written creations. That being said, I am on occasion buried in mountains of problem sets, lab reports, projects, etc. However, I do make every best effort to dig myself out and regularly update my works. Projects: As a writer, I have completed one large work: Wildflower. Wildflower is the story of Adena Havener, the dutiful bride of the stoic Duke Damien Havener. Well-versed in the wiles and facades of the Porrserran court, her new husband seems concerned only with the affairs of state-- with little interest in the affairs of the heart. A growing rebellion inspires unrest among the lower classes, resulting in a violent clash of ideals and philosophies. Amidst all this, Adena must navigate this dangerous world while coming to terms with her own troubled past. Currently in progress is Thorns and Brambles, which takes place in the same universe as Wildflower with a few familiar characters. Thorns and Brambles is the story of Torrance Young, a young woman tortured by the horrors of her past. Still assaulted with the brutal memories of her family's murder, she struggles each day to maintain her tenuous hold on reality. She is obligated, though, to present a strong image to the political elite of her country who desire to supplant her family's holdings and mar their long-standing reputation. Meanwhile, she finds herself falling for the mysterious man who has won her heart yet keeps a dangerous secret-- his own undesirable past. Amidst the lies and half-truths, they must decide if love can truly exist. Also in progress is Outsider, my NaNoWriMo project from 2011. Thanks for checking out any of my works!
