Opening Doors #Thursdaydoors #DawnoftheDream #books


Hello Everyone,
I am currently on a family/medical journey but wanted to hop on board Dan Antion’s #ThursdayDoors train today with a brief post. Please visit his page to meet some other great bloggers and to check out his blog. My post today is a bit of a triple header once again, offering a few doors of my own, as well as a door related sample from my just published book Dawn of the Dream/Book One of the Forever Never Series . This tale has many ‘doors’ that lead to hope and possibility. 




Recently discovered door in Puerto Pedregal, Panama where we had some amazing seafood and a lovely river view. There are some markets there for purchasing fresh seafood as well. Yum! 



So relaxing. They offer fishing excursions too!



This was so delish. Sea bass with shrimp in the most amazing garlic white sauce with sautéed potatoes on the side.


Half my gang. We enjoyed a fun time for burgers at HF Crave. 



Mine was the Plain Jane, but was really good. That honey mustard is some of the best I ever had (besides my own) 




Love you guys! 




My little book collection (the rest are in storage) but two of my favorites are missing. Knuckleheads, the first in Dan Antion’s Dreamers’ Alliance Series is off the shelf being read by hubby. And I am eager to add Book Four/ Secrets Held Against Evil! All of Dan’s books can be found on Amazon and you can check the links Here . If you love adventure, humor and a bit of espionage, you will love his eries. 


My favorite door of all. This one leads to my little porch and perfect back yard. That is where the real magic happens for me. 😊



Dawn of the Dream

… Naofa’s bag touched the floor and the loosened ties gave way.  When it fell open her eyes went to the precious blue crystal vibrating inside.  She and the boy stared, transfixed by its allure.  She gently lifted the miracle from the bag and once more felt the presence of her friend, and smiled when Dochais reached out to touch the delicately cut stone.  As his fingers caressed the undulating light the chaos around them grew muffled and distant.  The cool light turned warm as he cupped his hand under hers, and when their fingers closed over it, the pulse exploded into radiant light flowing down the steps and over the rock into the water where it rose up like a wall.  

“No,” she whispered.   “Not like a wall at all.”  She looked into the boy’s shining eyes and knew.  “Like a window.”  Naofa looked up at Guia.  “A portal!” she shouted, rising to her feet slowly lest they lose the magic…
