Merehr - Shytei Corellian



	Visit the author's blog. I met Shytei at the Greyhound bus station in New Orleans in 1992. What a dump. In the sea of unhappy, irate faces, there she was, smiling and making her way through the crowd in her new hometown. All she had with her was an old blue suitcase and a beat-to-hell backpack that contained her most prized possession: her writing. That backpack went with her all over Louisiana, California, Utah, Washington and Europe. She never went anywhere without that damn backpack. She let me read the first manuscript for Merehr. I had always read non-fiction or high-tech war novels (Tom Clancy, etc) but I was honored that she would trust me with her only copy. I read Merehr in 1993 and I have read it many times since. I have come to love Wing and Nien and the awe-inspiring story of Merehr. John Denver said "I know he'd be a poor man if he never saw an eagle fly". Well, I have seen an eagle fly, and while its beauty is hard to match, I'll take sitting around a campfire and listening to Shytei any day. —SPA 7 November 2006 By the time Shytei graduated highschool, she’d spent a year at university studying English and History and begun writing four novels. Restless, she hit the road, choosing jobs that would allow her to continue to write. From barista to ski lift operator, firefighter to martial arts instructor, beta-reader to web-writer she’s traveled state to state, job to job the only constant being pen and paper or, more recently, a pet laptop. Currently, she lives in Salt Lake City, UT where she continues to work on the other three books of the Rieevan quadrilogy, a Roman-era historical novel, three fantasy novels, a semi-amusing philosophical venture into living on the road and writing in coffee shops, and the epic of another world begun at age fourteen.
