Mystic Witch
March 2010, ImaJinn Books
"Mark All grabs you from the beginning with this page turner! Action, suspense, mystery, a great heroine and magic all wrapped into one intriguing book!"
-- Rita Herron, The Demonborn (Forbidden Passion, April 2010), Grand Central Publishing
"Bitchy witch Bailey Campbell is a kickass heroine, and Mystic Witch is a great read!"
-- Raven Hart, author of The Savannah Vampire Chronicles
"Potent magic. Heroine Bailey Campbell will cast a spell on every reader."
-- Scott Nicholson, author of The Red Church, The Manor, The Skull Ring, and others.
Bailey Campbell stood at the threshold of the ancient Place of Power.
Nearly invisible, a pulsing, blurry sphere dominated the immense cavern, suspended a few feet above the floor, distorting her vision of everything beyond it.
Around the anomaly were arrayed dozens of the Faceless Ones.
"Oh, shit."
A snarky ex-witch has to regain her powers to defeat a vengeful sorcerer; but to control the magic, she'll have to master the rage that's consumed her since he murdered her father.
A mysterious mentor appears, and together, they pursue the sorcerer and his faceless supernatural minions through the chaos and destruction he rains on Atlanta. But can she trust her heart and her life to the stranger--and resist her own dark desire for revenge?

Class: Planning Your Novel
Spruill Center for the Arts, Dunwoody, GA
I'm taking winter quarter 2010 off from teaching the class so I can complete my current work in progress.
2 concseutive Sundays, 12:00 - 5:00
In the course, you'll generate the concept and structure for your current or next novel, including main plot points. The course guide provides a story model based on the common elements of the story forms primarily used by authors and screenwriters, including the Hero's Journey and Three Act Structure, and includes simple forms to guide you in creating your novel. You'll also receive tips on the writing craft, an overview of the publishing business, and steps to publication.
Student comments:

"This was an interesting and useful class that helped me a lot in planning my story. I appreciate the energy and expertise exhibited by Mark All." -- Jane Callaham
