I am aging. No doubt about that. Even though my body doesn’t always do what I want it to do without aches and pains, my mind is sharp. I thank God that medical issues haven’t altered my creative spirit. In fact, I’m writing more than ever before. In my 70s, I’ve completed six new novels: my very first YA Paranormal, four more books in my series, and one self-pub.

Not bad for someone over seventy, right? So, I feel blessed… Every day I sit at my computer ready to write. Or edit. I love to edit.
Aging is a gift. I had a wonderful career as a music teacher and as a school administrator. For me, retirement isn’t an end. It’s a beginning, another blessing that many never get to experience. To watch my children mature into fine, responsible adults. To bend with the twists and turns, the curveballs life throws at us. To experience everything with new meaning. To sometimes snicker and smile saying, “Been there. Done that. And I survived.”
I may have regrets, but I love my life. I love the freedom that comes with aging. You’re never too old to grow. You’re never too old to learn. You’re never too old to love and be loved.
My next book is out October 2nd. Night of the Crescent Moon is a sweet, paranormal romance between a good witch and a mystical warrior. And yes. I still believe that love conquers all.
M. Flagg’s imaginative world is full of mystical warriors, witches, the not-so-normal vampires, and now, teenage ghosts. With five novels in the paranormal genre, spinning tales about the paradox of love is a passion, and there is always a twist of fate involved. Mickey is a contributor in a book on urban music education and has published a piece in Still Standing, a web-magazine about loss and healing. She is a life-long New Jersey resident, a member of Liberty States Fiction Writers, NJ Author Network and NJRW. Learn more about Mickey’s thoughts on writing and her books at M.

Book Blurb:
Some wounds never heal.
Martine, a good witch and ER nurse must enlist Lukas, a mystical warrior to save her patient who is under the spell of a dark witch from the Second Realm. But she pushed Lukas out of her life years ago. When Lukas agrees to return to the realm where he was once held captive, he faces unexpected danger to bring the dark witch back to lift the spell. Many assist Lukas, but few are trusted through his travels in a realm with ugly memories. Will Lukas succeed in saving her patient from a fate worse than death? Will Martine open her heart, or lock Lukas out again?
