AUTHOR: INSPERATUS & INFECTUS

Insperatus ~ England, 1843: Twenty-year-old Rein Pierson embarks on a voyage to America to escape a past she is desperately trying to forget. She boards a massive steamship—one that conceals all manner of peculiar phenomenon. Aboard the ship, Rein meets a man who seems the embodiment of her dreams, but, like everything else she uncovers, he harbors a deep secret. As Insperatus unfolds, Rein Pierson finds herself in a whirlwind of emotion—confused about her growing love for the dashing but mystifying Traith Harker, frightened by his secret that reveals the supernatural world that is encroaching above her own, and heartbroken as tragedy disrupts her voyage.~

Infectus ~ January, 1844: With the new year comes a new last name for Rein Pierson. As Traith Harker's new bride, Rein has finally regained the chance of a normal life. The damage of the past months took its toll, but sins were forgiven, deaths were mourned, and it seems for the first time in a long time, Rein and Traith are finally able to lead a normal life. But when a line of murders sweeps the English coast, all hopes of newlywed tranquility are shattered. It may be a new year, but the Harker's soon learn that they're happily married life is about to be capsized by an old and familiar evil.

ARTIST: COMMISSIONS AVAILABLE

After selling much of my artwork to people at the conventions I do for my book, I decided it would be a great idea to offer it via the web. I'm available to you to draw whatever you like - simply send me an email with what you'd like (as specific as possibly would be wonderful) - my email is KVARESIO@AOL.COM - your address by which to send it (unless you live in South Jersey, by which I may be able to make arrangements to have it dropped off to you), or even digitally - where I can email you the drawing through scanning it (that approach may not be too popular, but it would be easy for everyone). All other information is available upon inquiry.

My rates are as follows [rates may vary depending on what you would like done]:

$10: per character sketched
$5: extra for penned sketch
$5: extra for colored sketch
$5: extra for each additional character added to the sketch

Thanks!
