The proofs for "The Daysong of the Knightbird" have arrived in my e-mail box. I now have until December 26th to do my final edits.

I'm thinking that it will be the last part of January or the first part of February for the release.

This is the continuing adventures of Jesse Knight...yes, book two of The Knightbird series.

I wish that I was more excited about "Daysong" but I'm not. I plan on giving it the best attention I can, but I'm just not excited about it. Maybe it is coming at a bad time of year. I put way to much pressure on myself around the holidays and now my writing it taking that center stage.

Scrooge...or just being single?


I have never concedered myself a Scrooge. I loved the holidays, it was a fun time (when I was a kid and didn't have a care in the world!). Always at Christmas there was family so there was someone to talk to and run with. But now things have changed...Don't get me wrong...I'm don't want to be on anyones simpathy list but it just not the same. My brothers and sisters have their own family and well, I'm single. I can count all my friends on one hand and...well...they have families too. So I don't want to invite my pathic self to their good times. I feel bad enough so think of how I would feel standing in among THEIR families. I hate being alone but its worse when your alone in a crowd. I know they mean well but I just don't feel right being there.

It looks like we are not getting a holiday party at work for second year in a row. The current management is making it rough on planning it so I guess we won't have it. There is still one at bowling and I got Staci name. I still have no idea what to get for her. That is it for the Holiday Parties for me.

The jury is still out on the Christmas Tree going up too. I mean...when your single what is the use. It's just another thing I have to fight with the cat and dog over. I'm wondering if it is even worth it. The Christmas lights didn't go up either this year. I can't find the time to clean my house let alone put up Christmas lights. I will do the cards...I should make an effort to stay in touch with my relatives at least once a year. And I will go and wrap presents for the church (Nikki asked and I know they could use the help).

But personally, why bother? I have not husband or kids...no boyfriend or love interest to spend the holiday with...so why bother?

Coming Soon... Donni.


Coming soon....

"E'Mor's Romances ~ Donni" is coming right along. It has been a hard story to write. There is really no back ground on her so everything has to be from scratch. At least...I can show you the cover I designed for the printed version. I'm going to make that a rule to have the next cover designed and ready to go when the previous story comes out. You know just to wet your taste buds.

"In the Works..."
"Star'Leen" runs from beginning to end of story, but "Donni" is different. It accually starts before "Star'Leen". The major part is after (way after) the first story. So a book is 'in the works' which will contain BOTH "Star'Leen" and "Donni". It is tentively titled "The Desert of Stars". It will be more then just slapping "Star'Leen" and "Donni" together. It will be one complete story with new chapters added to freshen the story up.

Update... "Craziness of the Dragon"
I have heard from Forbidden and they had informed me they have just started to look at the October submittions. So I'm thinking soon, I'll post one way or the other.

The Local Newspaper??


I really do know else to say this without it coming out bad and this is an obervation nothing more.

Living in a small town in Montana has its upside and its downside. The upside is a tight community. Everyone knows everyone else and some will even watch your back for you. Crime is low as far as I know we don't have any serieal killer here. But...

The downside is this...don't color outside of the lines. Being that this is MONTANA, an artist is to draw wildlife, cowboys and scenery. A writer is to write about Montana fiction, cowboys or anything else that is 'so-called' about real Montana.

Here is the problem...I don't.

I was raised here and this is all that I know. I have not even seen the ocean. I have never been to Europe or abroad. I have made it up to Canada because we are only about 200 miles from the border. I was not raised on a farm but I have done farm work (my sister was married to a farmer). I'm not a fan of the 'big' city, it is just to crowded for me. So here is the problem...I write and draw sci-fi/fantasy/romance.

Everytime I pick up the local paper I see something about a booksigning or a bookreading, but they are for an author who wrote about pioneers or their live story in Montana. I was interviewed by this same paper back in the first part of May of this year but I have not seen the artical in the Ranger. In fact, I have spent a guess of over $300 in mail outs to promote my writing. Now I have 'Star'Leen' coming out and I'm not sure if it is worth the effort to contact the local paper. This is a weird position to be in. So your guess as good as mine in what I am to do next.

I have a couple locally owned stores that said they would be interested in handling the book. So I'll order a few from Lulu.com to place in those stores. I will offer some freebies to go with each book to advertise for Forbidden Publications (my publisher of the e-book version). It is the least I can do for them because they have been good to me. That was also the reason of the redesigning of the cover. I wanted a professional look to attract attention.

And in the mean time...I'll just keep writing and take the situations as they come.

I am excited about the release of "Star'Leen" !!!

The release date is December 8th, 2006! There will be a release party at the Chat Room of Forbidden Publications!!! So join me and four other great releases.

I can not be more excited about the release of book one of E'Mor's Romances titled "Star'Leen". So many changes have been made to make this one of my best. I am also proud of both the versions of it as well. Forbidden Publications gave me a wonderful opprotunity to tell a story I thought needed to be told.

Please...If you have a Pay Pal account and would like a good read, download the e-book from Forbidden....


If your interested in giving a real printed book for Christmas or a present of some sort, you can also get it in a printed version from Lulu.com available through my book store...Crazy Dragon Book Store.

Just thought I would give you all a look at my table I set up at the Zonta Arts & Craft show that was this weekend. I wish I could say I could have done better, but I can't. I went, I set up, and I tried something new.

"Jesse Knight" has been reviewed...?

I can't say that I'm real proud of these review but one is sure better then the other.

My comment about the first review is this...if she can't (or won't) read the book all the way through then why is she giving it a bad review? or a review at all?
Coffee Time Romance review by Kimber



Now...this is a review. She points out the good, the bad and what needs to improved. I went as far as contacting this reviewer. I want to thank her for her time, because she had went above and beyond the call of duty. CK2S Kwips and Kritiques review by Debbie



E'Mor's Romances - Star'Leen


The release date for this e-book has been pushed back to December 8th. Forbidden Publications would like to give it more attention so they had decided to spred out their releases alittle more. This I totally understand.

I'm in the middle of second round editing with Dayna Hart. She has a good eye and she is also not afraid of calling me on several scenes of the story. Between both of us we are going to make "Star'Leen" the best she can be. This e-book is going to be better (editing wise) than "Jesse".

Zonta Art's & Craft Show

I have decided to host my first book signing at the Zonta Arts & Craft show this weekend (10th& 11th), here in Glendive. The show will be at EPEC so if your in town stop by and visit with me. I'll be along the left side of the wall as you enter the building.

Not only will I have "The Violet Eyes of Jesse Knight", I will also have a pre-edited "Star'Leen" and a limited editions of 20 for "Craziness of the Dragon". I will also have t-shirts and other little items from the Dragon Rose on-line store.

Pictures will follow....for sure!

The Daysong of The Knightbird

I have re-edited this story on my own and sent it back to the publisher. I have learned alot from editing other stories of mine like "Star'Leen". I'm currently writing on the third story in this series and fate is making some changes of it's own.

I have decided not to stream line this story, but to allow a second pair of eyes to look at it. I want this story to be the best it can be. It is still looking at a February / March release.

No cover has been decided on... if you have an idea let me know... loreann@midrivers.com

E'Mor's Romance - Star'Leen


There was a change of title, but the story remains the same. I wanted to wait until I had a little more information about this first adventure in romance writing.

First, the title was changed to better associate the story with a series. So the title was once "Star'Leen ~ Rise of the Father's Son" is now been changed to "E'Mor's Romances ~ Star'Leen". That is fine with me, I'm learning alot from these gals at Forbidden Pub. They have been so helpful to me through this whole process.

Second, a kicka** cover was made for me to help with the promotions of my little kingly romance. D. J. Alling was the master mind behide it and I thank her much. Many cover designers would not have tried so hard the second time around and she nailed it.

Third, the release date...yup, I got one now. I would love to thank Rene (the boss lady) at Forbidden Pub. for reaching above and beyond the call of duty. Not only did she supply me with a date, but she also gave one to almost everyone else at Forbidden. Kudos to you my dear!!!
Oh yea... the release date is November 3rd, 2006.

Last, but now least, I have to mention this...now having the release date and all. I beleave that this is fantasic for a story that I started to write in mid-April, had done by the end of May, was told that it was going to an e-book by the end of June, and to be release by the beginning November of the same year.

Star'Leen - Rise of the Father's Son

I was surprised to find out that "Star'Leen - Rise of the Father's Son" was one of the 15 winners in a contest with Forbidden Publications. I am so happy to see this story find a place for itself among the many wonderful e-books that call Forbidden home.

In Honor of...


In honor of my first book coming out in July, I decided to do something that has been on my mind for a long time. I decided it was time to get "Jesse Knight" out of my head and over my heart. With the Motorcycle Show in town this weekend, it gave me a great opprotunity to do so.

This piece of art was originally done by Chris Watkins but the tattoo was done by Cindy from Eagle Tattoo out of Billings, MT. She did a wonderful job putting Chris' Art to work. So yup, this is one of kind piece of art. Next time Cindy is in town (that is if she comes back next year for the show), we will have to put something in the background.

Warnings about tattoos...they do hurt going on. Don't let anyone tell you different. They also cost a pretty penny. So be sure this is what you want to do before walking into any Tattoo Shop. It should not be done on an impluse.

The release date for "The Violet Eyes of Jesse Knight"

I was informed by PublishAmerica that the release of my book "The Violet Eyes of Jesse Knight" will be July 10th, 2006. I was also informed that there will be a press release about the official release will be sent to my local newspaper, the Glendive Ranger Review.

And yes, the cover pictured below will be the cover used.

This has been a slow process for me and I beleive it has taken it toll. Along with this and the few small nippings at work has made me more tired then I need to be.

love to all...

The cover?


PublishAmerica has sent me the idea that I had for the cover of 'The Violet Eyes of Jesse Knight". But...being the curious person that I am, I asked them for their take of this cover. I do have say that the my idea is growing on me. What about you???

E'Mor's Romance - Star'Leen



I'm happy to say that I'm done now with chapter five on this novella. "Star'Leen" is the working title, but it seems to be less about her and more about E'Mor coming into his own, so the title might change. I'm heading for ten chapters all together. This also encludes the rest of the series. So as soon as I am done writing this first book in this series, I will start shopping around for a good e-publisher to submit it to.

I think I might have stated before The Knightbird series will stay with PublishAmerica but this series will not. If I cannot find someone to take it I just might self publish it.

You can find out more about the series by checking out the website, E'Mor's Romance

Love to all...

The final look...

I have just recieved that final look at "The Violet Eyes of Jesse Knight." I did, however, find five misspelled words so I let my editor know about them. As soon as they are corrected then we should be good to go. Then it is sent to the graphics dept. for a cover.

Well then...it is off the stores and to whoever would like to read it.

Beautiful Presents


This week I celebrate my 40th birthday (and yes, I decided to celebrate it). This wonderful picture came to me in one of my birthday presents. I am very lucky to know Rob and Becky. They are good people and I hold their friendship high. I met Rob through my current job and he has been (and is) a joy to work with. It is so wonderful that you have friends that know you so well that they know the perfect gift to give you.

Rob and Becky gave me a book, "The Lord of the Rings Sketchbook" by Alan Lee.

"The Lord of the Rings" is still and inspiration to me in my writing. "The Fellowship of the Ring" was the only movie I wanted to see after my parents passed away (it came out that year). So it is a joy to recieve such a wonderful gift from such a good friends. I quickly looked at so that Rob could see it too before he left the station (his show is only 3 hours one day a week).

I decided to take the week off for myself and such. I just needed some time down to get book two squared away and to write on book three without intruption. Yes, I think it might be a good week.

love to all....

A Change of Romance...

I am currently writing in book three chapter three. I decided this would be a wonderful time to re-entroduce the main character's brothers through their father, as father and son bond over the common ground of mother. The King starts to remember all the mothers of the rest of his children therefore giving a little more background and bring the sons back into the story line.

While I am doing these special little story for each of the mothers I started to realize something. There is no way I could tell their whole story correctly. So I might be thinking of a romance novel about the loves of King E'Mor. Going more into the stories of some of the woman that touched his long life.

I have never wrote romance so this will be something different.

love to all... Laurlee

Kit Rae


You know I have been a big fan of this guys swords and art for some time. I can see him designing something for "Jesse Knight" to use after he has been trained up a little. Kit Rae's art and swords are some of the best looking fantasy items I have seen in a long time.

Yea, I can see "Jesse" holding something like this. Can't you?

Love to all...

Here my mailbox. Someone didn't turn and now I'm collecting my mail at the post office.

"The Daysong of The Knightbird"

I got word yesterday that PublishAmerica has decided to publish book two of The Knightbird series. We might have a problem receiving the contracts because I don't have a mailbox right now. Long Story....

The hurting kind...

I got into deep thought this morning over this topic. You know I wish we lived in a perfect world where nobody hurt anyone else but you know pain has a purpose. If all things were good and great in our lives then they would not be good and great, would they? If a bad thing happens to me and I can come through it (as I and everyone else has), I feel I have learned something then if was not such a bad thing.

I can not count how many people that have told me about their lives. It is like they are stuck in reverse or something. I know I do it too, I'm guilty. Bringing up the past and dwelling on it, been there and done that. Then again, let's not 'throw the baby out with the bath water' here. To keep those bad times in mind helps you not repeat yourself in having to go through it again. God gave us a memory for a reason, it is so we don't keep making the same mistakes over and over. Let's one thing straight here LOVE is not a mistake and if it is... it is worth making. Trusting someone could be. Trust is not love but it is a part of it.

Saying the words "I Love You", now there is a Pandora's Box for you. Man those are some hard words to say when trust is an issue. How can one say them with honesty when you can't trust the people you are saying it? Maybe that is what led me to this topic this morning, I don't know... I can't tell ya. Then there is the other side of coin here, saying "I Love You" too much to the point where they just become words with no meaning and lastly... (this one's my favorite because I been hearing it alot from someone I know) saying the words "I Love You" coupled up with and insult. Insults and those special words don't belong in the same sentence... they don't even belong on the same page!!! That is love with restrictions and that is not love it is now a control issue.

I hate it when people try to control me or something I am doing. They say to the public that they will help you then they tell they won't or even better yet, tell you lies to hold you back. That is when they hope that you get fusterated and quit, they may not say it but it is at the back of their minds. When you do follow through and make something of it, they come back around around and tell you "I knew you could do it... I was behind you all the way." These kind of people drive me nuts! This is when that little gift that God gave you comes into play... you know, memory. You look back at all the little tale tell signs and you can see like an open book. The bad thing is I know a few of these people and I even work with a couple of them. But you know... You just have to tell yourself that in end this is yours and YOU have a right to be proud. Do for all the right reasons, your reasons.

love to all...

P.S. - All comments on anything having to do with "E'Falco's Nest" is e-mailed directly to me. I will not stand for any slamming.

Writing on...


I just thought I would post a status report on all the projects that are coming and going in my life.

I'm still waiting to here from the publisher about BOTH books. I'm thinking that they should be getting in touch with me for "The Daysong of The Knightbird" sometime this week (that is book two). As for book one "The Violet Eyes of Jesse Knight", well I hope to hear from the editor soon. I e-mailed PublishAmerica about the status of "Violet Eyes" and they said that it recently was assigned to an editor so we will see. I can only hope soon.

A writing friend designed a cover that I could possiblely use. After several trys, this was the one I decided on. Now I'm not sure if I will use it but it is nice to have a stand by just in case.

I have been writing on book three since I have been waiting to hear about books 1 & 2. I have been working on chapter three (and maybe four). I have been writing small shorts stories about the mothers of all of King E'Mor's children. How he met them and so on. I was thinking that if I wanted to carry this on to a romance novel of shorts. Who knows what might come of it?

love to all...

Stevie Nicks' Nightbird

I have yet to hear this song. It sounds real haunting though. I seriously thought this was a Fleetwood Mac song but it is not. It is from her album "Wild Hearts". You know it would figture, I have the rest but that one.

I have this song playing in the back ground on my 'Chapter' pages at The Knightbird website ( http://www.freewebs.com/knightbird ). This kind of, just kind of, for shadows what is coming in my series. Jeanne helped my work it out and I thank her again.

Nightbird
Lyrics: Written by stevie nicks and sandy stewart.
And the summer became the fall
I was not ready for the winter
It makes no difference at all'cause I wear boots all summer long
My eye make up is dark and it's careless
Some circles around my eyes
Sometimes the real color of my skin
Is my eyes without any shadow
And when I call
Will you walk gently
Thru my shadow
The ones who sing at night
The ones who sing at night
The ones you dream of
The ones who walk away
Capes pulled around them tight
Cryin' for the night
Cry for the nightbird tonite
And so the winter is really here now
And the blankets that I loveI am surrounded sometimes
By too much loveAnd when I call
Will you walk gently
Thru my shadow
The ones who sing at night
The ones who sing at night
The ones you dream of
The ones who walk away
Capes pulled around them tight
Cryin' for the night
Cry for the nightbird tonite
And the darkened eyes
Thru the net of the lace
In the darkness
It's hard to see her face
Pulls back the net
And you feel the touch
Of her fingers
And you see she turns the eyes
And you see the eyes of a nightbird
The ones you dream of
Finally the nightbird
Finally the nightbird
Tonite

Book three and maybe four???


I expressed my concerns on how to write to a very special portion of book three to a online writer's group. I have come to call these people my friends if not very good aquantices. A very talented writer by the name of Jeanne was kind enought to step forward. We talked in privite e-mails to each other and she asked questions that I had thought I had answered in my writings. She challenged me to look deeper at the situation and now that I have, I have come to realize that maybe (just maybe) I may not get everything that I wanted into one book.

The story of a female slave maybe a story into itself, we shall see. If I can come up with at the very least 100 pages of story. I would guess about 35, 000 to 40,000 words. I will SERIOUSLY think of turning it into a book of its own. I would truly say this slaves life could be more interesting then I first thought. Thank you, Jeanne darling....

A busy week!

Hello everyone,

It has been a busy week. I have made up a little plan for this year about "The Knightbird" series. Earlier this week a copy was printed up, paper work was filled out and a $30 money order was drawn. Yes... the second book is on its way to the Library of Congress for its copyright. Before this happened, I submitted it to publisher. The next step is to put together the manuscript to be sent in and I'll do that on my next couple of days off.

By the way, there was just a little change in the title of book two.
It is now and was copyrighted under...
"The Daysong of The Knightbird"

I am hoping to have the third book, "Feathers of a Dancer" done and ready for publisher by the end of this year.

**********

To someone I use to know... I wish you all the luck, love and fame in the world. I can only hope that you are about to release your next project soon. It has been over a year now since I seen anything from you. I do also hope that you are finding more constructive ways of using you writing talent.

The Titles...

I do not believe it is a good idea for people to be jumping to conclusions when they do not know the whole story. I do not want to miss lead anyone. I am just out to tell a good story and this is the story I wish to tell. I dreamed up 'Jesse' when I was a girl and as I grew, so did he. We all have our own fantasy worlds we run to. I see nothing is wrong with that and there is nothing wrong with that. But what one calls a fantasy world is nothing more then a retreat from everyday hassels. In nature, I am not a bad person but I do have my limits and lately I have pushed right to them. So all I can suggest is this... Here is my story, it is my retreat and the fantasy world I have made and yes, I have made it real just for you.

Book One
The Violet Eyes of Jesse Knight
The introduction to the Prince that will lead everyone on a fantastic journey.

Book Two
Daysong for a Knightbird
The Prince now must fight for his place without pushing away those he loves.

Book Three
Feathers of a Dancer

A love that is beginning, a love that will be, a love that is and a love older then time.

Book Four
To Claim The Soul of a Knightbird
Three will come to lay claim to the one person that could stop them but he has allies, very powerful allies.

Book Five
In the Temple Mists
In the temple is the key but not all are accounted for. Where is the last piece?

Book Six
Before the Known Time
It was there all this time waiting to be discovered. It was waiting for the person to find it.

Book Seven
To End With Love
(the end of the beginning)

I had no choice... change in settings.

Due to some insulting comments made about me or worse yet toward me, I have no choice but to limit all comments made on this blog. I did what I could to leave this an open forum but that right was abused by just one person. So it is for members only now, sorry...

If you wish to have that chance to comment you can e-mail at loreann@midrivers.com or laurleeharbig@yahoo.com .

The upside to this.... no spam. But I could have dealt with that. It makes me sad that I have to lock this down. This is not just for my book and the series but my personal thoughts. I refuse to keep them to myself. That is one of the reasons I signed up for this, it is a 'web log' not a website. If someone pissed me off I DO have the right to tell the world if I would like. I also have the right to tell the world of the wonderful things in my life as well. But I don't like when other people try to take credit for them, this is mine and it belongs to me! I have done all the work on it, I have put out the money for it and it belongs to me.

I do not mind giving credit where it is due but not all of it. So now I will just do that. The first story I have read that just floored me with inspiration was called "Son of Star" by Janice M. Lee. I wanted to write like that and wanted to write a story like that. "Son of Star" has not published (yet) but is a great tale about a fantasitic hero (just like Jesse).

Story line idea... Center House.



Center House

The main house is small and round it lays just to the back of main palace. The house itself is round with two sets of double doors front and back streight across from each other. There are just two set of stairs, one by each enterence. These stairs go up to walkway that runs about 10 feet from the floor and this walkway goes about a fourth the way around on both sides. There are two small rooms on each side that can be accessed by these walk ways. The main floor is empty and not divided. The 'so-called' front doors point toward the palace and the 'so-called' backs point out to a land fill.

History of Center House

Center House was ran and owned by a family that since long died out before the war. The last Lord had died just after WaveJammer was born and before Loss. The House was the caretakers place for the several gardens that were surrounding it there for the name 'Center House'. The Lords of Center House cared for the gardens and landscaping of the palace. They also helped with several of the garden on all the levels of the Crown City. When the last Lord of Center House died the gardens fell into the care of the City Grounds keepers. They turned the unique house into a storage and they started to cut back on taking care of the gardens due to money problems at that time. When the war took place the 'floats' turned the area into a land fill.

A bad feeling...


Ever have that bad feeling that someone is following you.

I get that feeling from time to time. I'm not an easy to scare person. I will take matters into my own hands if I have to. But I have this feeling at times that some person (or persons) would love to see me not succeed in what ever I'm doing. It is a weird feeling. I know a couple of them by name... and no I'm not paraiod. I know that not everyone is out to get me. I do still have a few friends in this world.

It's like Tuesday morning. I surfing the net not paying anyone (or thing) any mind, it happens. Someone signed on to MY Yahoo account and kick ME out of MY OWN ACCOUNT. Well I have an idea who it is and when I do get some proof that person will be facing more then just his dad.

Sometime ago someone came to THIS blog and told me that I had to remove all posts about them. Well... it ain't going to happen. Get over it! This is my place and if you don't like what you see here don't come by.

For those of you who did come by because you DO LIKE ME (you really really like me). I Love you all (and I know who some of you are). Don't make me point you out! LOL!!!

Come October


I have decided (sometime ago) that I would do a book for my true inspiration in writing... my parents. I love and miss them greatly. I have decided to call the book 'Come October' being that was when I lost my father. I will keep you posted on the progress of this project.

This is a project I have wanting to do for some time but the pain just was too close. For those who don't know I was there when my father passed away. I took care of him on his final days. I didn't start writing until the best boss I ever had passed away. He encouraged me to do my best and we wanted to please him because he did.


love to all... Laurlee
