Images from Prologue
What Do You Envision?
The cover of this Mystical Aria sequel,  Starship Diary , brings to life the following section of the Prologue. What do you imagine when you read these paragraphs, written in the voice of twelve-year-old heroine, Aria Vanir?

     Back home in Virginia Beach, I wrote about my psychic impressions, feelings, and fave events in my transmission diary. Unfortunately, my tDiary wasn't in my beach bag when the Gallions beamed me aboard the Rama XI .The Gallions gave me an option of manifesting another "antiquated" tDiary or giving me one of their "advanced" crystal-scroll recorders.
     I chose the crystal-scroll recorder. Duh!
     First Engineer Peakte programmed my crystal-scroll recorder to autocorrect in English. When I asked him for a pen, he gave me this astro quill laser that etched words with a thin beam of light. It glided across the page like it knew the words before I wrote them.

Now look at the cover illustration poll below and vote for your favorite!

Fun Facts About the Author
My drawing capabilities are limited to stick figures and flow charts. I can garden, play the piano, ice skate, lead complex information technology projects, and call Mom every Sunday evening. 

But I can't draw worth a darn.
