The first draft of Famine is complete. Finished in four weeks. Un-be-lievable. I’ve started the process of cover design, including casting choices. The role of eight-year-old Matilde has been filled. There’s a hard choice to be made on Claire — I’m down to two candidates and they are both amazing models. And I’ve identified a few potential Bartholomews. He’s gonna be on four covers, so gotta get him just right.
Stay tuned…

I finally have a series name.
The Glass and Iron Series will encompass Girl Under Glass and all subsequent books and short stories that involve the Ohnenrai/Terran/Azatem conflict.
=================================
Author, Cara Bristol, has named Girl Under Glass to her Best Erotic Romances of 2012
This is particularly amazing since GUG isn’t erotica. In fact, the love scenes are sensual and implied. I’m beyond thrilled and honored. Here’s what Cara had to say about GUG:
For beaming me out of the pages and into another world, Girl Under Glass by Monica Enderle Pierce
A mother who fights to save her daughter following an apocalypse must bring herself to trust a Stranger, a member of the race responsible for it. Girl Under Glass Takes place on earth in the near future and on a space ship. The writing is beautiful, the story compelling, and the setting is literally “out of this world.” A sci fi romance. A debut, self-published novel. First in what will be a series.
And if you are an erotic romance reader, Cara’s books are among the best. Highly recommended.
