Granddaughter of an Author-The Truth

A fake letter from the granddaughter of this author.

Dear author fans,

My grandma is an author and sometimes that is great!

She can introduce you to cool people, like Veronica Roth.The author of Divergent.
Or Cynthia Hand, author of the Unearthly series.

And she knows the cover models. 
Wait, forget that one! 
TOO embarrassing.



There TONS of FREE books and S.W.A. G. presents.


And you might be mentioned or have your name in a real book, like I did.
See acknowledgements and pg. 144 of Mirror Images

But here is some advice. Watch out when she wants to use you to practice parts of her books...like drowning a little girl...yes, this happened.

And be VERY afraid if her next book is called Explosive Charges and you see her with a lighter.

The one thing you can say about having an author such as G. A. Edwards as your grandma, is that it's never boring. 

Finally, always be nice to her or you might end up in her next book.

Signed,

The granddaughter

Mirror Images-Excerpt



Mirror Images -Excerpt
Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrummmmmm. Ruuuuuummmm. Putt putt putt putt.
Smack!  I pitch forward and the weed trimmer went wild.
One, two, three, FOUR!   Decapitations!  A floral carnage of Mrs. Bryant’s prize-winning dahlias.
I straighten up, hit the kill switch, yank my ear plugs out by the cord, and spin around ready to do battle with whomever or whatever has shoved me forward. All I see is my identical twin brother Max sprawling on his knees before me cradling something in his hands.
“Max, what's happ…?”  I reach forward to pull him up. A streak of blood marks his cheek. I jerk him the rest of the way up. How could he get blood on his face while driving a riding lawnmower?  Blade’s on the bottom.
“Oh crud!  Max, what…” Tiny rivets of blood drip between the fingers of his cupped hands.  
I unclip the weed trimmer and toss it to the side. Probably not a good idea, since it’s an expensive investment for our lawn business. But panic does that. Frantic, I grab in the direction Max’s hands to search for the source of the blood or missing digits. He leans away.
“I’m sorry, Marty. I tripped.”
            “Where’re you hurt?”  I demand, checking behind him to see if our old riding lawnmower is still upright. It is.
            “It’s not me, Marty.”

NOW, since I am the author and in charge I could stop here and leave you wanting to know who or what it is bleeding, but that would drive you crazy, wouldn't it?

Wouldn't it?

Okay, I'll tell you.   

It's a baby bunny that Max has accidentally run over. The bunny survives.

But not all of the little girls in this town do...
