Bright Star: The Meridian Trilogy, Book One
Dallas Anne Duncan, LLC
Dallas Duncan (BSA – Agricultural Communication, ’11; BSA – Animal Science, ’11)
Price: $45
Signed hardcover first-edition of this Ag Dawg’s debut novel:
Bridgette Conner is in her early twenties, studying violin at a university in the American South. She’s a part-time waitress, a full-time creative, and for all intents and purposes, a pretty normal twenty-something living a pretty normal life. She has senior year finals coming up, a few summer classes to round things out, and after that? Bridgette hasn’t given it much thought.
One Sunday in 2019, a newcomer enters the diner where she works. And suddenly, Bridgette has many, many thoughts about what comes next: Magic is for fairytales. Her life has been anything but.
… Until now.
“Bright Star” follows Bridgette as she begins to tackle an uncertain, constantly changing present based on a past she didn’t know was hers to claim. The world in which Bridgette grew up is very different from the possibilities she’s now presented with — if she is willing to join forces with Elves and Fairies, witches and Sanguisuge coteries, Tieflings and Baetalü, to make possibility reality.
Immersed largely in the history of the Salem Witch Trials and Civil Rights Movement, melded with modern-day challenges of changing colonizer mindsets and confronting one’s own economic and social biases, “The Meridian Trilogy” is as much a fantasy series as it is a lens through which to view twenty-first century politics and global lifestyles. Intensely researched, meticulously detailed, combining fictional worldbuilding with real-life happenings, it’s a rarity in the genre … and perhaps like Bridgette Conner, something new in its entirety.
The saga begins this November. Will you join us?

A natural shampoo made on the FARM. Fresh, raw goat milk from my herd of healthy, happy Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats provides the base for this product. Goat Milk has the same pH as our skin so absorbs and delivers the gentle cleansing. I also add stinging nettle to the mix. Stinging nettle is used in Europe for hair growth.
This formula is scented with an essential oil blend that is also beneficial to your hair and scalp. The Lavender essential oil soothes the scalp and the Peppermint helps to open the hair follicles to remove excess sebum and dirt.
This shampoo contains NO sulfates, parabens, phthalates, mineral oils or alcohol.
lf you would like there is a matching reconstructive conditioner available. I find I don’t need to use a conditioner but if you use chemical products(gel, spray, etc.), wash your hair daily, or use a blow dryer, straightener, etc. you may need the extra protection this provides.
