Nicky and Bill met in 2005 in Austin, Texas during a workshop teaching them to operate a Russian bio-feedback device. Nicky, who’d published a novel (HEARTS OF GLASS) a few years back, was looking for possible new subjects. Bill, an idle wizard, suggested that she simply write about the many alternative, 'new age' investigations they’d played about with and all the interesting characters they’d met along the way. Nicky emailed Bill a few paragraphs of Chapter One and he replied. |
