Rise (Paperback or Softback)

Nobody expected the convention to be anything other than fun. Fans anticipated meeting their favorite creators & streamers while the creators & streamers looked forward to mingling with their peers & fans. It was supposed to be a fun weekend, despite the dismal headlines in the papers about the brewing conflict & the mystery illness spreading across the states. None of them could have foreseen the nightmare that was about to unfold. For one group of men, a fun weekend would become a test of their strength & character. Before the incident they were ordinary people living ordinary lives in the real world, but in the online world they were heroes. It would take the near extinction of mankind to show them they were anything but ordinary in any world. As the dead rise so will a new breed of humanity led by unlikely heroes.
Rise features some well-known & beloved creators & streamers from the gaming community such as Games4Kickz, Starsnipe, Kage848, Capp00, & GrayGhostZoro as well as some amazing up & coming talent.
Rise is the book that gave birth to the Rise Universe, & after several years, it was appropriate to give it a slight revision & a new look for a second edition.

Mandy was born in middle Tennessee along the Alabama border, an area rich in history & storytelling. From the time she could talk, Mandy loved nothing more than telling stories which naturally progressed into her love of writing. At a young age she was lucky enough to have the privilege of meeting the late, great author, Gregory Mcdonald whose inspiration & influence she carries with her to this day.

Mandy is a proud mother & grandmother. She resides in Virginia with her husband, Michael, & their family of fur babies.

There's more to tell, but she'd much rather tell you herself. Listed below are a number of ways to hear it straight from the horse's mouth.
