Nic Plume
Indie Author
A question-asker and seeker of understanding, Nic explores the world and people around her.
Nic Plume is a Writer in Progress, Sufferer of Wanderlust, Dabbler in Photography, who learned English from Dragons and is always in search of the next “wheeee” moment. Born and raised in Germany, Nic spent most of her adult life married into the US Army life. English is her second language which she learned through school and refined through daily lessons with Dragons once she moved to the States (Ok, fine. She improved it through reading books, more specifically the Pern and Dragonlance series, but close enough!).
She currently lives full-time in an RV with her husband and German Shepherd, and travels all across the US. Always looking for the next adventure, she prefers the roads less traveled - and loves to startle her copilot with a well-timed “wheee” right before the water hits the windshield.
She’s always made up stories, but never had the urge to write any of them down until the idea and characters of ‘Shadows of Peace’ refused to leave her alone. Now she’s plotting along and typing away daily to give the voices in her head an opportunity to be heard and seen by the rest of the world. Her stories tell the triumphs, tribulations, failures, and pains of the human experience through a lens formed by her association with the military.

Tinaree - Tempered by Blood
Some truths won’t stay buried. And some pasts won’t stay quiet.
Mark Taylor survived captivity, interrogation, and an assassin’s blade. He’s back with his team, back on mission—but the facts his allies are uncovering don’t match the memories he’s always trusted. As fragments surface and contradictions mount, Taylor is forced to ask the unthinkable: are his memories failing him—or has someone rewritten the truth?
While Taylor searches for answers, Commander Dean Richards works to unite Tinaree’s divided population. His mission: restore self-rule and complete Intergal’s withdrawal. But with tensions rising between native Tinareeans and the Soto defectors, Taylor’s experience—and the scars he carries—may be the only bridge strong enough to hold.
As hidden agendas emerge and old betrayals resurface, Taylor becomes a symbol, a threat, and a target. What he uncovers could unravel not only his own past, but the fragile peace Tinaree needs to survive.
Tempered by Blood delivers high-octane military sci-fi with deep psychological tension, political complexity, and the unbreakable bonds of soldiers forged in fire. Perfect for fans of Marko Kloos, Richard Fox, and Kameron Hurley.
