Meet the Author : Cyndi Pilcher

Ok, so I was trying to do that author list in the same order. I got distracted, and ended up oopsing. I missed our own Cyndi and Serena. I aim to fix that quickly. Today we introduce our very own Cyndi.

A wonderful writer good at telling tales of fantasy for the young and the young at heart.

She is half of Fae Corps, Inc. She is a dedicated gamer, who has been on Wow for several years.

She writes cute children’s books, and adventure filled young adult stories. Her blog, Redbird’s Storytime is a fun place where she shares updates and stories about her faeries.

She has a poem, and a story, in Faery Footprints. She also released a YA novel recently, A Royals Undoing. She has a children’s book out, with another that is being prepared for a re-release (due to a change in illustrator).


She credits her eighth grade teacher Mr. January with her love of writing. She said that she chose to be an Indie author because of the control it grants her. She has quite a lot of experience writing, over 35 years worth! We look forward to reading all of the stories that she has to tell!

Meet the Author : KA Masters

KA Masters is so busy writing that our request for a picture has thus far been unanswered… Hopefully that will change by the time we have to put the book together… We paused for the weekend to give time for the request to be answered, however it is time to continue to introduce these amazing authors to you.

KA Masters is a fantasy writer who specializes in twisted fairy tales and zombie-infested historic fiction. She attributes her passion for Greco-Roman mythology and Germanic folklore to her alma mater, Dickinson College.

Meet the Author : Deedra Nichole

Deedra Nichole started her published career as Deedra Mosley. In 2018 her life took an interesting turn. After tragedy struck a close friend, Deedra found herself thrust into a whirlwind of change. With a romance ripped out of the pages of a novel, Deedra took a new name in September 2019. She has been with us from the very beginning, being one of the amazing authors in Under The Mists. We are so excited about having her back for this anthology.

Deedra Nichole is an indie author with years’ experience in the indie publishing industry. She has taken her love of the industry and created Deedra Nichole Editing, a service that seeks to make editing affordable for indie authors.

Her writing support group, Write for Me, (On Facebook) hosts tips & fun writing prompts for her close-knit group of fellow writers. November, during NaNoWriMo, you can find her handing out support while carving out stories. She has won the last four years of competitions and plans to continue competing.

As of September 14th, 2019, Deedra Mosley is no more! She is currently enjoying a blissful life of love and change. She took the new name of Deedra Hanekamp, the force behind Deedra Nichole Editing, with new books released under the name Deedra Nichole. Same great stories, same powerhouse editing!

Under the hill by Rose J. Fairchild

This was sent to us a little bit ago but it was lost in email for a time. It was in response to a prompt/picture we shared. We think that Rose did a extraordinary job writing this.

Meet the Author : Michael Guzman

Michael has been an invaluable reader for Cyndi and I since before we founded Fae Corps. We are especially happy to have him with us as a writer. We hope that he continues to join us with his amazing stories.

Michael is a lifelong nerdy geek, though it’s taken him half his life to feel good about himself about this. His many fandoms include sci-fi, fantasy, anime, comics, and gaming, both video and tabletop. He lives in Eastern NC with his loving wife Merry and works by day as a mail carrier throughout Pitt and surrounding counties which sometimes leads to pleasantly surprising encounters with nature. While on the road for work, depending on radio reception and personal mood, Michael enjoys classical music, J-pop, K-pop, or soundtracks from his favorite video games or movies. The story in this anthology is his first published work and hopes that more will follow.

Meet the Author : Rose J. Fairchild

According to Rose her submisson was inspired by my daughter’s loss of her first top front tooth. “As she gently placed it in the little box we use for the tooth fairy, she said with tears in her eyes, ‘I’m really going to miss being a kid.’ “


“Rose lives in upstate NY with her husband, two kids, and furry companions. She works at a local library where she acts as a clerk and does all the children’s programming, both on and offsite. Currently, she is working on a retelling of “Beauty and the Beast,” which is one of her all-time favorite fairy tales! The main character is based on her grandmother—one of the strongest people she’s ever had the pleasure of knowing in her life. She (along with Rose’s fiery daughter) is her muse and an inspiration to women everywhere. It has been joyous to include some of her life experiences in Rose’s novel, and she hopes someday to share it with the world”

We are truly excited to have Rose’s Fairy Dust in Through the Sunshine.
