In Book One of THE BLANCHARDS WITCHES...Who is Arielle Obbreiggon?

 




Arielle Obreiggon is the youngest child of Xander and Atheidrelle Obreiggon.  She lives much as her father does, under the thumb and oppression of her mother.  Arielle is lonely.  She loves her father and he loves her, but his broken heart and wounded spirit isolate him, leaving her on her own most of the time.  


The one thing on earth Arielle desires most is a connection to someone, anyone.  Her sister Cassandra has never been someone she could cling to.  Cassandra has been molded into their mother's image and her cruelty is almost as bad as Atheidrelle's.  So Arielle has been waiting for something.  For what, she does not know.  But she trusts one day someone will come along she might be able to cling to.


Arielle has the power of telekinesis.  She shares the same power as her half sister, Salem Blanchard--although she does not know that, as they have never met.  Arielle has grown up hearing the whispers about Nacaria Blanchard and the two bastard children she bore Xander.  Arielle has dreamed at times of one day meeting her half brother and sister.

The Birth of The Blanchard Witches Book Series

Image
The first book began twenty years ago when I wrote it as a stand alone book.  I never fully finished it and set it aside as life got in the way and my job and family took precedence.  But I never fully let go of my dream to finish the story and get published. Then in 2018 after selling my business and my son being in elementary school I began wondering what I was going to do now.  That was when I pulled out my dusty writing from the file cabinet I hadn't opened in a decade and reread my Blanchard story.  I decided to finish it...only it wasn't finished with me. The more I tried to wrap up the tale, the more ideas came to me.  I quickly realized THE BLANCHARD WITCHES OF DAIHMLER COUNTY was not "a book"...it was a series.  There was just far too much depth and texture to these people for them to fade away in one story. Soon the first book was complete but my fingers would not stop typing their further escapades.  Within six more months the second book was complete.  Th

A Little Blanchard Backstory...

Image
When the first book THE BLANCHARD WITCHES OF DAIHMLER COUNTY begins, the Blanchard family is already long established in the town of Daihmler. They've been here for generations, living in the white three story farmhouse with the wrap around porch and four story tower. Olympia Blanchard is in her seventies and though beloved by her daughters and grandchildren for being the sage old giver of wisdom--Olympia has lived quite a life her offspring are not completely aware of. In her youth, she and her sister Pastoria--and their lifelong friend Zelda, helped many people and saved many lives (and possibly the world) a time or two. Olympia has been married three times by the time readers meet her in Book One. Her first husband, John Windham died shortly after the birth of their third child. She then married a fond acquaintance named Martin Caswell, hoping he might be a substitute father to her young girls. But he died shortly after. Later in life when she was already a grandmother, O
