The Author 

Welcome to The Forest of Eternal Books. I'm Karlene! I'm a working mom, discovering my passion for writing. My journey began with a spark of creativity that has since blossomed into my debut novel, Blood From Another. This novel reflects my experiences as a mother and magical imagination. I’m excited to share it with the world. Join me as I navigate the challenges of motherhood while pursuing my dream of becoming an author.

My Story

As an introverted soul, I find solace in the pages of books. I work full time, which results in spending early, weekend mornings writing pieces of my book. I plan out what I want to write during the week, and let my creativity flow whenever I have time. I love to be outside, soaking in the wonder of the world. 

 

My grandmother loved to write. She had a notebook she took everywhere she went. She would write short stories, poems, or really anything that came to mind. I always asked her to read them to me because I was curious. She created magic through her stories. My Mom has continued my love for writing and reading. She turned her dining room into a library. Books line the walls from floor to ceiling.

 

After my son was born, I struggled with postpartum depression. I felt like I completely lost who I was. Eventually, I realized I had, but it was a beautiful thing. I had been the caterpillar, who finally broke free of her cocoon. My new wings spread, allowing me to became the mother, artist, and creator I was designed to become. My son helped me see wonder and look at the world differently.

​

Writing has always been cherished outlet. A passion passed down from my grandmother as I mentioned above. created my own sanctuary within the Forrest of Eternal Books. Join me on this magical journey where I am rediscovering myself through writing.
