More of the series will be available soon, so drop by and check them out when they find their way our of my brain and onto a page.

Buy books on Amazon
Eressë has always enjoyed reading and writing historical fantasy. Indeed, her pen name is taken from the elvish language J.R.R. Tolkien created for his fantasy epic The Lord of the Rings, a favorite of hers since way back when. However, most of her stories turned into M/M romances because the male leads had more chemistry with each other than with the females. Why she wrote them that way she doesn't know. But this penchant for M/M fantasy romance became the wellspring of her series Chronicles of Ylandre.
Eressë lives in Southeast Asia with her husband, three sons and one dog. She also likes to cook and bake and is a professed chocoholic. But her first love is and always will be writing stories.

I am a middle-aged man, born in the far reaches of upstate New York - parts that give the word "rural" meaning. Now I live in Washington, DC.
When one of those milestone birthdays hit me and scared the crap out of me, I realized there were more years behind me than there were in front of me. My mortality hit me like someone dropping a load of bricks on me.
With that realization, I constructed a bucket list of things I absolutely had to do in the years (hopefully many) that I have left. Writing a book was one of them and was near the top.
My biggest influences when growing up were my two grandmothers. Both were ferociously strong women who were widowed way too yo -

His fiction is usually funny and sometimes snarky. One of his books — Brent the Heart Reader — was the 2012 entry into the Gay Book Hall of Fame. Another fiction work is TIME FLIES, a coming out story in the science fiction genre.
Since 2010, Wagner has lived without a pancreas (Whipple procedure), which means his body no longer produces insulin or digestive enzymes. He says it makes nutrition a real science project. And because he had several books in the pipeline, readers got new releases throughout his 5-months in the hospital.
He and his husband are both retired. They live in Dallas, Texas (USA).
