Once again, I present my humble offering to anyone seeking a cozy sci-fi read:

Weaving In The Ends, a novella duology that starts with a summer fling & ends with a comedic Winter Solstice brawl.

It's a feel-good chosen family story, and it's a quick read that can be read as a standalone, or as an easy springboard into the world of 2 connected novels.

Available in print & ebook now, audio coming soon!

Two long, thin rods hit the wooden jamb one after the other and stuck there, quivering. She nodded at them while gazing at Felicity. “You taught him to use those. Do you still like a challenge?” Dee was staring at the door. “Are those knitting needles?” he asked. From the safety of the office Cee said, “Makes you think about her hobby a little differently, doesn’t it?” “It’s a craft, not a hobby,” Felicity said impatiently. “And yes, Serena, I do still like a challenge.” Right side: the cover of Weaving In the Ends by K. M. Herkes, from the "Stories of the Restoration" series. Cover graphic is a photo of pale hands knitting blue yarn on wood needles against a dark blue background

    Awwww, thank you for saying that!

    I know I'm biased, but I certainly think they're great.

    It's the closest I have to a feel-good story, it's a cozyish quick read that can be read as a standalone, or as an easy springboard into the world of 2 connected novels.

    Day 3

    Behold, Weaving In The Ends, a that starts w/a summer fling & ends w/a Solstice brawl.

    It;s the closest I have to a holiday feel-good story, tho I should mention not Christmas bc none of the characters are Christian.

    ANYway It's cozyish novella duology & I adore it, so I made it a new blurb & graphic.

    (Warning: reading this may lead to wanting the rest of the non-romance series)
