Louann Carroll, award winning author, writer, blogger, and social journalist.

I am learning to live in a world without my husband and it is scary. Life did not turn out the way I thought it would and the world is not as kind as I thought it would be. Every day I continue to learn new things. Like, how not to paint the deck before you assemble patio furniture. I gotta tell you, the stuff my husband did was way harder than vacuuming.
Because I am a writer, I write about many things. Even stuff that makes me nuts like politics and environmentalists with an agenda other than serving the earth which really equals politicians. On the Sci-Fi side, I love dystopian. There are monsters in this world and there are angels. I try to pit them against each other and see who wins. My blogs are about how to live in this new world I find myself in which is getting easier the more I learn to navigate the bumps and bruises. I also love discussing the Mandala effect.
As a journalist I write about current events, book reviews, or do character interviews with those characters I run into. I also write commentary where I express my opinion about world events although I haven't done much writing at all this past year.
I am so sorry if you stopped by while I've been working on my site. While checking my stats I realized I'd published my site before I was finished.
My bad.

Packed with prophesy, pain and passion; with love, devastation and renewal, Gemini Rising is the memorable introduction to what promises to be an epic intergalactic/interdimensional series that will rock sci-fi readers to the core. This first book is set in the near future in the United Socialist States. America is plagued with many of the consequences that today’s conservatives believe we will face if our government continues down its current liberal path. Yet, as frightening as this future world becomes, it didn’t once occur to me to put this book down. Simply put, it's one of the most amazing, yet unsettling books I’ve ever read. For Ms. Carroll, it’s a crowning achievement, so masterfully written it can do nothing but win every award for which it’s certain to be nominated. ![]() Buy Link

My name’s Jack and I had a great day today. I don’t always have great days. Sometimes they are good and sometimes not so good. When my alarm went off this morning, I thought it would be like every other day. You know, wake up, go to the bathroom, clean up, eat breakfast, fight with Jacob, go to school, go to practice, go home, do homework, eat dinner, fight with Jacob, get yelled at by the parents, watch TV, go to bed. That pretty much sums up most days. Until today. |

Above the earth and beyond the clouds lies the City of Wind. It is a special place where winds are born and named. In the City of Wind, a small breeze learns how to become a gust and a gust a gale. Time comes in snurs and snips—a snur being more like a human month. This is Allison and Aanjay’s story. Allison is a warm dry breeze that hopes to flow down the side of a mountain someday. Aanjay supposes that his mountain might be in South Africa, or maybe Indonesia, or South America, or even North America if possible. Allison and Aanjay have rather lofty goals, but before either of them can become a part of earth’s winds, they must first make a choice and as everyone knows, choosing is hard. |
