“Tasting Humanity” represents Sarah Hendrix’s first foray into published fiction but don’t let that stop you from following the start of this promising writer. Her website – titled, The Darker Side of the Fire: Thoughts and Ideas About Writing and the World – is a good place to begin. Sarah has posted a variety of entries which describe her development as a writer. You can tell she puts thought into her work and the direction she wants it to go in. From the flash fiction piece, “Chill of Mourning” with its fantasy elements over-shadowed by the sad, nearly tragic, growth of the protagonist, to the “Character Building” posts that basically give the reader a peek into what Sarah is thinking as she writes a story.

Sarah Hendrix may be just beginning her journey and that’s an opportunity for readers, to join her early on. Follow her on Twitter at http://twitter.com/shadowflame1974
