The Reversing Worlds Trilogy, holds a special treasure within the stories. It is based on an actually place in Downeast, Maine. I recognized this phenomenon when I was a child, lobster/crap fishing with my father. Although, Reversing Falls leaves many people wondering what causes the small whirlpools and the rough terrain. It is a dangerous place that most avoid, but for the Maine fishermen this is a place where they can’t avoid, it is a passage through to greater waters. The creation of Reversing Worlds was actually created years ago, it just took a while to catch up to me. I remember as a child, holding tight to the stern as the boat shifted through the water tornadoes, pushing us side to side, as we made our way through. I remember looking over the side wondering and wanting to tell my tale of the reversing ocean’s tide. Most people see the long and uneasy tides as part of the ocean. I could see a mystery, a forbidden place that reverses all roles and leaves a tale to be told, maybe in a paranormal fantasy sense. But – All in all, it is Harper’s legends of the Reversing Worlds.
Sometimes stories do not leave your soul until you are able to bleed your thoughts on paper. The Reversing Worlds Trilogy has been a huge learning curve for me, and it has taken me a while to catch up to the ideas of being self-published. It has been many times that I wanted to give up, but knowing that self-discovery is the key to your soul. It is important to chase something that follows you everywhere you go. I never thought of myself as a writer, until I realized that there is so many untold stories in my mind. Writing is a piece of me that I can ignore, but why? – Every tale should be told. Right?
I am fortunate, I live near the ocean, where all my writing are inspired from. I look at Maine as though it is my paint palette, I strike my brush in the needed colors and paint my latest visions. I am a huge outdoor person, a simple walk can create the most fascinating terrifying character through the lands of Pasmaqon. I think this is the same for a lot of writers, it is seeing an inspiration and running with it.
Pasmaqon, is a hidden land that was created from a magical book, which Caroleen found as a child over a hundred years ago. She disappeared from this world, and everyone around her thought that she had expired in the river connected to the ocean. When Harper was scrounging through old antiques in her mother’s hope chest, she found the book, and forced the clasp open. What Harper did not expect is to find herself in a world of wonder and magic.
The darkness of Pasmaqon learns of her presence and know that she has traveled through the only portal. The darkness aware of the book and in hopes that it is once again in Pasmaqon. She found herself not only adjusting to the magical lands, but learning her own power keeping her safe from the darkness that lurks around every corner hot on her keeps. The darkness is the lost souls struggling to conquer Pasmaqon. The dark creature’s holds a cover of invisible vises, and sometimes their ghost figure can hold the image of a wolf. Both are powerful, the only problem is, they cannot be vanished, they are already dead.
Harper battles the invisible vices to protect Pasmaqon, as she battles a never ending battle of the dead. The secrets of the lands are exposed, but is it enough for Harper and her friends to find freedom. Maybe they are prisoners of the land, like all of the other lost souls? Maybe they are more powerful then they think? Maybe there is a reason they are there together? Maybe it is already rehearsed in the book? Who Knows?
You will find out at the end of June, 2013.

As well, as footage of the Reversing Falls, Pembroke, Maine:
I visit this place often, just because the ocean heals my soul, and my thoughts are at their peak, when I sit there and watch the reversing motions of the falls. Here is some footage –
Do you remember Queen Caroleen’s families Inn. Where she grew up and where she wrote in all of the journals. This is an actual place as well. It sets off from the Denny’s River, in Dennysville, Maine. This big old house always brought me to the thoughts of Queen Caroleen. Only to find out after I wrote “The legend of Harper and the Reversing Worlds, Trilogy One,” that a young girl back in the 1800’s actually fell through the ice here near this house. She was never found, and legends say that her spirit still combs the shores where the river meets the ocean. Kind of a surreal moment, to think that you have written something that has actually happened a hundred years ago.
When you look in the picture, you can see the large rocks near the river’s side – this is where I always pictured Caroleen writing in her many journals and books.
