Fellow Fan Fiction Readers:
You know me here as Shortbard. I posted a story in August 2003 called The Language of Love. That story was about an archaeologist finding love in an unlikely place and time. I mentioned in my replies to readers that I was busy; with my writing partner, WelshWarrior, writing stories about two women archaeologists who meet while on an expedition in Arizona to find a lost tribe of Amazon Warriors. It was our hope that these stories would be good enough to be published…and now they have been.

Superstition Shadows (by K C West and Victoria Welsh) is the first in a series of alternative fiction with archaeologists Kim Blair and PJ Curtis. If you crave adventure, romance, humor, mystery, a little fantasy and…oh, yeah…Amazons, then this book is for you. Contact Dare2 Dream at www.limitlessd2d.net for info and ordering. It's also available online from Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
