Tamara Paxton Copley has written several award-winning short stories, children’s books, and poems and has been blogging for several years, including one post that won an award.  This is the first short story she is publishing for general readership, but she will present many more to you soon.  Within a few months, she will publish Doomimals Volume 1, a series of illustrated sci fi/fantasy chapter books about three kids and their animal companions protecting the world from the evil Dog of War, a series with ties to this story.
