About the Author and Freelance Writer
Donna Sundblad

Memberships include: Epic for Authors, WIN, Calhoun(Georgia)-Gordon County Writers' Guild, and Reader's Station.

Donna Sundblad enjoys life as a wife, mother, and grandmother. She's the eldest of seven and the great-great granddaughter of a Native American named Little Beetle. Little Beetle's people were a blend of Chippewa and Mingo and lived in West Virginia. She decided to leave her culture and took on the name Ida M. Biddle. When she married a white fur trader named Marshall Prickett, their joining was not accepted by either culture, but they forged a new life together.

Donna's love of family, belief in God, interest in her Native American heritage and her love of fantasy and science fiction all influence her writing. While her fantasy novels are not "Christian", they portray journeys of faith with characters who follow paths that challenge and teach them trust, love, faith, respect, courage and acceptance as they battle prejudices, hate and fears.

Beyond the Fifth Gate:

Beyond the Fifth Gate Beyond the Fifth Gate
Five planets visibly align in the dawn sky marking the long-awaited Kamali's Cycle. With it comes the promise of freedom for Elita's home world. But first, as the Chosen, she must travel through five mystical gates and return home to Haldis with items key to that freedom. Upon entering the first gate, there's no turning back. Travel is a one-way race against time before the planets move out of alignment and the gates close for another 50 years.

Windwalker:

Windwalker The beauty of this story is its very human humility. Manelin, a peasant goatherd, has been raised by a man he thinks is his grandfather. The old man is the only one left who knows the boy to be the Arich. Dark times thrust greatness upon both a reluctant goatherd messiah, and his crippled Augur. Can the faith of commoners save the land, and their people? You'll enjoy this read, and the prophetic "Tellings" of the Windwalkers. ~ Frank Creed, Author and Reviewer
