Loween Cover Reveal - A New Coloring Book Illustrated by Michael David Ward

Title: Loween
Illustrator: Michael David Ward

Genre: Fantasy
Based on the book written by: Mary Ting & Michael David Ward


I am so excited about the cover reveal of this new coloring book based on the book written by Mary Ting and Michael David Ward!

*Optioned and in development for a TV series*

Halloween has a new girl, and she’s a Ronin Witch! Like no other teenager, Loween is a samurai without a master, and a witch without a coven. This goth girl warrior is mysterious and fun-loving while fighting against the darkest forces of evil.

Riding her skeleton-themed motorcycle, ‘Reaper,’ Loween charges off into the dead of night to confront demons and monsters of every kind. But along the way, she never forgets to have fun, because she’s still a girl at heart!

Behind the terrifying creatures is a shadowy Wraith Witch named, Lady Oiwa. Her goal is nothing less than the destruction of all we hold dear. Thank goodness our Ronin Witch is there to protect us. Even though she’s all that stands between shadow and light, this teen queen of Halloween is completely at home because she’s Loween, Gal Eerie!

Inside are 40 original, spell-binding illustrations created just for you—the imaginative explorer of the fantastic, and the macabre. Accompanied by whimsical insights, the colorist is given a sneak peek into the epic world of Loween, which is also a forthcoming novel series.

If you like a good fright, and those things that go bump in the night, look no further! Loween, Gal Eerie is the coloring book for you!

She also wrote a free serial romance on her weekly blog, A Rose in Bloom. And in her spare time, she’s a dentist. (But she’s painless.)
Tamie met her husband as a freshman in college when she acted out of character on a whim. One night in the library lobby, she spied a cute guy with his first name written on the back of his shirt. She called out his name. When he approached to talk to her, she pretended that she’d met him before, asking about his classes and how he liked college. To her surprise and delight, he also pretended that he knew her, but of course he didn’t know her name. They continued this false relationship for two months. Each time they saw each other, an event which occurred three times per week at the cafeteria, he would pretend he knew her. Meanwhile, all of Tamie’s friends were careful not to reveal her name to him. When he finally admitted his ignorance of her name, he was astonished to learn the truth. And the rest is history.

Since he was very young, he has always been intrigued with the supernatural and things that can't be explained rationally. By always asking way too many questions, it piqued his interest to the point of setting his writing off and running when he grew up! All the curiosity building up all those years was finally put into words to captivate readers. And it hasn't ended. His main goal is to share all the stories he has inside, putting pen to paper. And that's how the Dream Series was born.
