Sirius turned to me. “Annie, what’s wrong?”The question came from nowhere and everywhere. It had hung between us for as long as I could remember, becoming the one unknown dominating my life. I finally asked what I’d been wondering, hoping. “Do you think we’ll be paired together?”
Sirius’s eyes were dark oceans of mystery. He blinked and shrugged. “We’ll worry about that when the time comes. For now, let’s enjoy ourselves.”
Aubrie grew up watching the original Star Wars movies over and over until she could recite and reenact every single scene in her backyard. She also loved The Goonies, Star Trek the Next Generation--favorite character was Data by far--and Indiana Jones. But, her all time favorite movie was The Last Unicorn. She still wonders why the unicorn decided to change back to a unicorn in the end.
Aubrie wrote in her junior high yearbook that she wanted to be "a concert flutist" when she grew up. She majored in flute performance at the University of New Hampshire on a full scholarship, then secured two teaching jobs at a University and a local community music school. While playing in orchestras and teaching, stories popped into her head, and she used them to make the music come alive for her flute students. Her students said they were so good, she had to write them down! Maybe they were right, who knows? Two careers seems to keep her busy. For now.
She is represented by Dawn Dowdle and writes sweet and adventurous fantasy, science fiction, and contemporary romance.
