Sometimes life seems a Greek tragedy, not worth pursuing.
And then your child gives you a big hug or you get a whiff of fresh coffee and
cinnamon roll and can’t wait to live another minute.
Authors try to short cut life experiences for
everyone, including themselves. Finding words to make your tummy rumble or thighs
tingle works for us, too. The passion of storytelling keeps us going.
I think I’ve heard it from at least a dozen other
authors: I write what I want to read. Sometimes we write for a contract or
obligation, too, but we always put a bit of us in a story. That heroine who
moves from the desert because of her hay fever is at least a part of me. That
she’s plump, achy, and in her sixties, wishing she was young and trim again is not
just me but I’m pretty sure at least a dozen others out there. (Naked in theWinter Wind). Okay, hundreds of others, but you know what I mean. We want to
live vicariously through people strong and more vibrant than ourselves.
No need to raises hands, but how many of us have
made mistakes? I’ve never been strung out on drugs and shot anyone, but if I
had, I’d want a way out (That Twin Thing series). By creating scenarios, giving
my characters the chance to right a wrong, I’m purging and/or offering them a
chance at redemption.
Looking for excitement? Passion, danger, and life on the lam. She was only eighteen, but was life worth living? She was a mess, but why was this doctor so intent on helping her? (Adult content). The Set Up, first book in Triplets: Three Aren't One multi-genre series.
Save a few minutes a day to read a great book.
Pass the Pandemic hours in other countries, living
other people’s lives in lands either strange or familiar to you. Get those
tingles while enjoying a real cup of coffee or tea. We may not have the time or
resources to be world travelers, but we can have the experiences.
Read on, World!

Grace
Pierrepoint Rendell, the only child of an ailing billionaire, has
been treated for paranoia since childhood. When she secretly quits
her meds, she begins to suspect that once her father passes, her
husband will murder her for her inheritance. Realizing that no one
will believe the ravings of a supposed psychotic, she devises a
creative way to save herself – she will write herself out of
danger, authoring a novel with the heroine in exactly the same
circumstances, thus subtly exposing her husband's scheme to the
world. She hires acclaimed author Lynn Andrews to help edit her
literary insurance policy, but when Lynn is murdered, Grace is
discovered standing over the bloody remains. The clock is ticking:
can she write and publish her manuscript before she is strapped into
a straitjacket, accused of homicide, or lowered six feet under?
With
a cast of secondary characters whose challenges mirror Grace's own,
Saving Grace is, at it's core, an allegory for the struggle of the
marginalized to be heard and live life on their own terms.

By
day, a mild-mannered salesperson, wife, mother, rescuer of senior
shelter dogs, competitive trivia player and author groupie, happily
living just north of New York City. By night, an author of sex,
suspense and satire.
My
background includes stints in travel marketing, travel journalism,
meeting planning, public relations and real estate. I was, for a long
and happy time, an award-winning magazine writer and editor. Then
kids happened. And I needed to actually make money. Now they're off
doing whatever it is they do (of which I have no idea since they
won't friend me on Facebook) and I can spend my spare time weaving
tales of debauchery and whatever else tickles my fancy.
The
main thing to remember about my work is that I am NOT one of my
characters. For example, as a real estate broker, I've never played
Bondage Bingo in one of my empty listings or offed anyone at my local
diet clinic.

BACKGROUND:
The inspiration for the story came from Sandie's beloved father who worked in various psychiatric hospitals during short periods of his career. In the attic of one such hospital, he made a disturbing discovery - one that bothered Sandie so much, she had to create a story around it. Though fiction, many parts of the book intertwine the patient routines, treatments and outbursts that she learned from her father and other research in a way that makes the story vivid through Jeannie's perspective.

Dahlia Poplar is a genuine witch, an unofficial gofer, and Luna Lane's only cursed resident.
With a werewolf best friend, a vampire ex-boyfriend, and a ghost for a hanger-on, Dahlia is far from the most unusual dweller of her sleepy small town, but she's the only one unable to leave. Dahlia has to perform at least one good deed per day—or she's one step closer to turning to stone.
Fortunately, the residents of Luna Lane have plenty of tasks for Dahlia to complete to avert the curse until Cable Woodward, fetching professor and nephew of her elderly neighbor, stops by for the semester on sabbatical. Attempting to help Cable's uncle work through the trauma of losing his wife, Dahlia uncovers the man's collection of board games, which leads to him reminiscing about the long-forgotten Luna Lane Games Club.
Dahlia reestablishes Games Club, only to find evidence of a number of horrible demises connected to the original group. While trying to uncover the truth about the deaths, Dahlia has to fight off her curse, protect her elderly neighbor from becoming the next victim, and most vexing of all, keep Cable from figuring out Luna Lane's supernatural secrets. Only with eerie board games like these, there may not be a loser—or even a winner—who survives.
Luna Lane's witches, werewolves, and vampires welcome you to the Spooky Games Club—in which even the winners could find themselves six feet under. This cozy paranormal mystery is perfect for fans of Adele Abbott, Amanda M. Lee, Nancy Warren, Angie Fox, and Sara Bourgeois. With a witch's broom that acts like a pet and a focus on games, Spooky Games Club Mysteries also weaves in themes familiar to cozy pet mystery and cozy craft & hobby mystery readers.
After the disaster of the month before, Dahlia Poplar, cursed witch and helper extraordinaire, is ready for her serene, supernatural small town life to return to normal. However, her hopes for a more peaceful existence don’t last when a childhood friend moves back to Luna Lane to open up an escape room.
With the Spooky Games Club thriving, Dahlia decides to help her friend by using her magic to quickly get his business up and running. Dahlia’s enchantments accomplish the task, but before the Games Club has a chance to enjoy the new attraction, a test of the escape room results in a freak, fatal accident. Riddled with guilt, Dahlia wonders where her enchantments went wrong—or if there’s something more to the disaster.
The only way to divine whether or not the death was her fault, the result of an accident, or murder is to investigate—and perhaps even play the dangerous game herself. In this one-hour escape room, failure to escape could mean death, not just for Dahlia, but for those she holds most dear.
Fixated on researching ways to break her curse once and for all, jinxed witch and do-gooder Dahlia Poplar doesn’t know how well she’ll do in the upcoming Euchre Tournament, the Luna Lane Spooky Games Club’s first sponsored event. With visiting professor Cable Woodward due to depart to spend more of his sabbatical on the road, Dahlia can’t admit that he may be the reason she’s so determined to finally leave behind the cozy comforts of home.
Unfortunately, her efforts stir up unwanted attention from the one who cursed Dahlia to begin with, the evil witch whose shadow has loomed over all of the dreadful events in Luna Lane. When the tournament ends prematurely, there’s a body charred to ashes, and Dahlia takes it upon herself to figure out if the wicked witch is behind the disaster. Somehow, she needs to brew the right potion to break her curse while solving the paranormal message encoded in the club’s playing cards, all while keeping her loved ones safe.
Her very life may be the ante she risks to get to the bottom of everything that’s been plaguing her since birth—and if she can’t bluff her way to winning, Dahlia Poplar may prove to be the dead card that’s no longer in play.

A lifelong fiction fanatic, she fangirls over books, anime, manga, comics, movies, games, and TV shows from her home state of Wisconsin. When not reviewing anime professionally or editing her clients’ novels, she’s busy fulfilling her dream by crafting fantastical worlds of her own.
Adam and Danny are
your average couple. Sure, Adam is a ghost — and then he’s not —
and then he is again. And, yes, in between crafting lattes, Danny
sometimes crafts spells. But other than that, they’re your typical
couple — plus or minus a few grimoires. From ghostly best friends
to husbands, Adam and Danny find a way to work through all of their
troubles ... even death.
Danny loves his new
apartment, its stainless steel appliances, low crime rating, and
proximity to his job that keeps him from having to take the bus. The
only downside? The ghost that haunts it. When Danny reluctantly
offers to share the space with Adam the Ghost, he thinks he’s
signing up for an awkward roommate situation. Instead, Danny is faced
with the very real possibility that Adam might be the love of his
life — and that, at any moment, he might lose him forever.

time she didn't have a book in her hands or a story in her head.
Early obsessions with Star

her on the path to creating sweet to sexy pulse-pounding romances for
her independent heroines. Anna lives in Northern California where she

A
memoir turned into thrilling fiction; Moon in Bastet is based on the
life of author E. S. Danon. The story follows a fourteen-year-old
girl named Eva, an orphan living in the Negev desert of Israel who is
working as a custodian of Cirque Du Christianisme.
Her
life is controlled by a volatile drunk named Bella who favors a group
of equally volatile teenage bullies, the Christian boys. Bullied,
neglected, and alone - Eva's only friends are an odd,
thirteen-year-old Sephardic boy named Jack and a small cohort of
Bedouin sister-wives.
On
the brink of giving up on life, Eva stumbles upon a mysterious cat in
the middle of the desert. Or really, did the cat stumble upon her?
Filled with mystery, magic, and symbolism - Moon in Bastet is a story
of resilience, survivorship, forgiveness, and women
empowerment.
This
is a work filled with Jewish mysticism that can be enjoyed by people
of all races, ages, and religions everywhere.
Elizabeth Danon
received her B.S. in Marine Science from Stony Brook
University before working as a Marine Biologist for
the National Marine Fisheries Service. She traveled the
U.S. Eastern Seaboard and Gulf of Mexico: collecting data aboard
commercial fishing vessels and dredges.
When that didn’t pan
out to be the glorified job that she expected, finding herself
covered in shark snot and fish scales daily, Elizabeth became a
technical writer. In her spare time, she began doing standup comedy
after taking comedy bootcamp with the Armed Services Arts
Partnership. At this time, she married the most wonderful man who
also provides most of her joke writing material. Unfortunately,
because he’s Indian he has also enabled her Maggi addiction… Like
she needed that on top of her already long-standing iced coffee
issues.
Her favorite show
is Schitt’s Creek, as she feels a special bond to her
fellow comedians – and Sephardic brethren. Growing up half-Jewish
herself, Elizabeth eventually converted to being full-Jewish with
Temple Israel as a student of Rabbi Panitz.
Her enriched, but
complicated, heritage has been an inspiration for most of her
creative writing. Being an Aries, she has always felt like a leader
and has therefore integrated her feminist beliefs into her work,
albeit dropping every women’s studies course that she ever elected
in college. Additionally, her writing has an unmistakable
international presence. Elizabeth wanted to discover as much as she
could about her Sephardic Heritage and went on Birthright,
followed by her independent travels to over ten other countries…
carrying nothing but a red bookbag.

bumpkin, self-destructive teenager, Matina thought her life's

or falling through the parchment of a good book. But she owns a great
secret, one coming with her approaching womanhood like the mouths of
gnashing teeth.
Boraor
Rehton, the inept shaman, would love nothing more than to leave this
wretched town, continuously appointing him their spiritual leader. He
knows little about the earthly arts, but the same cannot be said for
black magic; tools he uses, which, if caught, would earn him a place
on Amden's impaling stakes.

Pauthor Quithot, recluse, Grubilius Motty, lowlife drunkard, and
other malcontents all involved with a mysterious force let loose upon
the bog.As the force's mystery wanes, old feuds are inflamed, murder
is ready to run rampant, and the threshold separating the living from
the dead is hopped over with wicked glee.
Alluring,
unpredictable, dripping with idiosyncratic folk, AMDEN BOG is dark
fantasy where beauty and brutality often hang from the same sagging
vine.
David
Rose (1983-) is both a hybrid author and a former dilettante. His
works include No Joy, From Sand and Time, Mulgara, and Amden Bog. One
of which won an award.
The
only thing that could summon Estelle from her new york apartment was
a desperate call for help from the man who had saved her life as a
child. Her grandfather, who had raised her from a child after her
mother's tragic death, needed her to return for an urgent family
matter
Convinced
of the legend of the missing village of Goldum, he gathers a group he
can trust who can handle the journey into lower mountains before the
snow arrives.
With
Estelle to lead, she follows her grandfather's map, into foothills on
ATVs. Much to her surprise, she and the others come upon another
group of ATVs along their trail.
Lofton,
a geologist, appears to lead a group that includes two hydro dam
workers and his female assistant. With a massive gold nugget as
evidence, the two groups continue together, having no real
choice.
Together
they discover the source of the gold is most likely coming out of an
underground river, and they need scuba gear to continue. The
underground journey takes several days and tortures all
physically but mostly mentally. The smell of abundant amounts of
gold has them all planning glorious futures.
Alliances
and enemies are made in the small group. Still, all seems forgiven
when they find the legendary lost village of Goldum buried almost
intact. However, things go poorly when Estelle, who claims to be
the rightful heir to the village and fortune, tells the disbelieving
group that removing any gold will result in all of their deaths.
Born
in Florida, I am a resident of the US, but now I reside on a lovely
island in British Columbia Canada with my mother and two dogs, and
one cat. During the early years of my life, I worked in the business
industry, thus reaching my goal of obtaining my degree in Business
Management.
I
love to read, and over my lifetime, I have probably read hundreds of
books. Now that life has given a bit more time to concentrate on my
personal life, I am following God and writing fun, fanciful fiction
stories, which blend over into the fantasy realm.
I
hope that each time I put words on the paper, it makes you want to
read it. I always hope someone has fallen in love with my words and
want to continue reading them.
Blaire’s
got to be the only person on the planet who hates Halloween. At least
the only person in her small town, which practically worships the
holiday. Ugh. And it doesn’t help that her super-hot ex-boyfriend,
Lucas, is determined to convince her otherwise by making her take
part in “festive activities.” Apparently carving pumpkins and
watching scary movies is going to magically change her mind about the
holiday? Yeah, right.
But
Blaire has never told anyone the truth of why she hates Halloween or
the truth about why she broke up with Lucas. She’s definitely never
told anyone about how much she second-guesses that decision. Being
around him is so much harder than she thought, especially when it
looks like he's starting to move on.
And
when she gets a letter in the mail from someone who broke her heart,
can Blaire overcome the negativity drowning her? Or will her
bitterness and secrets push everyone she loves away?

are hunting her again, but to get to her, they'll have to go through
Griffen Owen. The ex-Special Forces operative is the rightful alpha
of his pack, and the moment he sets eyes on Madeline he knows the
beautiful, feisty human is his mate. But to keep her safe, he will
need to teach her to obey.
Doing
as she is told doesn't come easily to Madeline, and it isn't long
before she finds herself naked, helpless, and tearfully promising to
be good as her bare bottom is soundly spanked. Her mate's mastery of
her body is put on full display as Madeline is brought to a
quivering, shameful climax while still over his knee, and soon she is
begging to be taken hard and thoroughly.
Madeline's
need for Griffen only grows stronger as she is marked and claimed,
and his savage lovemaking leaves her in no doubt that she belongs to
him. But with war brewing between the packs, can Griffen protect his
mate from both their enemies and her own headstrong
defiance?

When
Catherine Livingston travels to Italy to investigate her sister's
disappearance, it isn't long before she crosses paths with the man
who has been ravishing her almost every night in her dreams. More
shocking still, the mysterious, darkly handsome stranger leaves her
in no doubt that he is well aware of the connection between them and

Marco
DeMedici seems to all but own the city of Florence, and it soon
becomes clear that he will not rest until Catherine belongs to him,

her until she is sobbing, obedient, and begging him to take her hard
and thoroughly.
Despite
Catherine's efforts to run from him, her body's response to Marco's
stern dominance cannot be denied, and when he reveals that he is an
alpha shifter it only makes it more obvious that her world will never
be the same. She will be his mate, and the only thing left up to her
will be how loudly she screams his name as he claims her as roughly
and shamefully as he pleases.

Ava
Rhys has always chafed at submitting to the authority of her pack's
alpha, but when he tries to sell her body in return for money and
influence, she decides she would be better off on her own. Ava's
plans to live as a lone wolf in the backwoods of Maine are thrown
into turmoil, however, when the local game warden makes it his
business to take her in hand, and the battle-hardened former Army
Ranger soon proves to be just as fiercely dominant as any alpha
shifter.
Declan
Collins knows a woman in need of a man's firm hand when he sees one,
and it isn't long before Ava is kneeling naked at his feet with her
well-spanked bare bottom on display. Once he has taught her a better
use for her sassy mouth, she quickly finds herself screaming her
helpless, shameful submission into the bedsheets as he claims her so
roughly and so thoroughly that she is left in no doubt that she
belongs to him and there is nothing whatsoever she can do about
it.
With
each passing day he masters her body ever more completely, never
hesitating to punish any hint of defiance before using and enjoying
her in ways more humiliating than she could have ever imagined. But
when instinct causes her to bite him in the throes of yet another
intense, desperate climax, will she lose him forever or will she end
up mated to an alpha shifter after all?

whether she likes it or not. Her only choice will be whether to
submit to his authority with or without needing to be stripped bare
and spanked over his knee until she is kicking and crying and
promising obedience. When she chooses the latter, the Navy SEAL
turned cowboy is more than happy to oblige.
But
Cameron knows instantly that Riley isn't just a feisty female in need
of an alpha's firm hand. She is his mate, and she knows it too,
despite her best efforts to deny it. No matter how many times she
tries to run, he will always chase her down, punish her thoroughly,
and then mount and claim her so roughly that all she can do is scream
her helpless, shamefully intense pleasure into the pillow as her body
betrays her and surrenders ever more completely to his

“I’ll
start at the beginning. Long ago, before roads, before we built
structures, before medicine was discovered, before the government was
created, before man gained any knowledge, there were The Five.
Independent from each other, The Five had a mutual respect for one
another. They knew their roles in the world and their duty. They were
gods…”
An
adventure begins when an otherworldly tree captures the attention of
Megan and her friends. The environment morphs around them,
transferring them to an exotic planet. Stuck in a rural town still
maimed by the plague, a chance encounter with a familiar face gives
Megan and her friends some security during their adjustment
period.
While
settling into new, promising lives, they are attacked and stalked by
planet Dalya’s humanoid inhabitants, who focus on Megan. One dark
night, after an epic, magical attack, the Fae King’s knight is sent
to fetch Megan. When she wakes up a prisoner, she learns that there
is much more to this strange world, and it is oddly more like her own
than she ever would have expected.

Garth
Simmons was born in 1981 in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, UK in 1981.
He’s a visual artist who’s made paintings, installations,
animations and pattern designs. He has had exhibits everywhere from
Scarborough to Los Angeles. His pattern designs were in the Golden
Globes and Fashion Times and he likes to remind people of this.
Writing has always been a feature of his artwork. He would write
directly onto his artwork, or by collaging “stream of
consciousness” notes.
In
2015, whilst working in a data entry position for Siemens, he began
writing short stories as Facebook posts. At first they were daydreams
of outrageous acts he could commit whilst at work (if he were
professionally or ethically allowed). Later they were stories in
other settings. Some dark memoirs of times in various school settings
and learning programmes (for those who are “not on the right
level”).
These
stories resonated with his social media followers. He was encouraged
to put them into a collection and seek out publication. While putting
these stories into a contextual order he realised they formed a
larger narrative. A tapestry of recurring themes, settings and
characters. They made up a larger biographical webwork and subjective
statement on the world. A hole punched through this fabric, hence the
title Hole Punch.
Since
completing Hole Punch, he has been working on three long-form novels.
Also he has an actual short story collection comprised of several
10’000 word stories. He also does a podcast called Slanderhour and
has an EP in the works. His philosophy is that “the
more things you make, the more you enjoy your own company”.
Apart
from creativity, he loves cats, mochas, wearing blazers, arthouse
films and many ropey science fiction series.

Fantasy
poetry driven by myths and legends has been my passion for as long as
I can remember. I was published in poetry before catching the romance
writing bug. I bring that background to my writing along with a
lifelong addiction to horses, an 18 year career in various areas of
psychiatric social services and many trips to Ireland, where I
nurture my muse. My published works range from contemporary fantasy
romance to fantasy historical, futuristic, science fiction and
historical romance. Currently I live in rural Pennsylvania with a
"motley crew" of rescue animals.
A
cozy mountain town, a sweet romance, and a secret society of sneaky
women…
The
sleepy hamlet of Sugar Mountain harbors a secret society of women.
Don’t misunderstand—the society itself is not secret—it’s the
true nature of the group that is hush-hush.
Sugar
Mountain is the kind of charming village that tourists adore. If you
like small-town charm, quirky shops, and local art, this is the place
for you. But when a blood smeared package shows up at the post office
and it appears to be linked to a scheme that threatens Heidi
Collinsworth’s historic home, the town takes on a sinister vibe.
Heidi would lay odds that slimy Mayor Winslow is involved, but even
with the enquiring skills of The Sugar Mountain Ladies Historical
Society at work, proof is scarce.
The
new guy in town, Adam Williams, is determined not to get involved in
Sugar Mountain’s business. His last job in a big city planning
office ruined his life, but Heidi needs his help. No matter how hard
he tries to stay detached, Adam finds himself eyeball deep in Heidi’s
problems, as well as the needs of her teenage son and a homeless
dog.
With
conflicting theories abound and tensions running high, it’s up to
the ladies of the society to don disguises and go undercover. If
they’re not careful, the town may fall to a wrecking ball, Heidi
may fall for Adam, and the secret society will be exposed.

way.

her childhood hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains, wading barefoot in
creeks, and chasing salamanders, fish, and frogs. She and her family
loved to tell stories while sitting around the campfire.

scientist by day, but never lost her love of telling stories. Now,

and a happily ever after, which everyone deserves.

three cats, and her very active imagination.

The
Cards are drawn, the cast put into play. The Deck is ruled by the
majics that created it. Events take on a life of their own, reliant
on the strengths and motivations of the players whose avatars are
determined by the draw. The Queen of Quills represents qualities that

family he adores, but how will he and Calista escape an unseen enemy

protection of her tribe is a day she’s risking death. The enchanted

Barcelona—exquisite
architecture, masterful artists, and just down the coast, an ancient
fortress where an old and powerful vampire lives…and rules all of
Spain.
Tall,
dark, and deadly, vampire Xavier Prospero Flores waded
through blood to destroy his enemies and reach the pinnacle of
vampire society--Vampire Lord. He has only one regret in his long
life, and that’s the day he rejected the advances of Layla Casales.
She’d been too innocent, too naĂŻve, and far too young. But she’d
also been his.
Layla
Casales was only nineteen when she left Spain, brokenhearted
and humiliated by Xavier’s rejection. But now, ten years later, the
ties of family are pulling her back, not only to Spain, but to
Xavier’s fortress. Her father, the vampire lord’s military
commander, is critically ill. Layla has spent years fighting on
battlefields around the world, so when her father asks her to come
home, she can’t say no.
Though
Xavier’s rule began on the ashes of his enemies, it’s not
vampires trying to kill him now--it’s humans. He needs to eliminate
his enemy before more of his people die. Layla arrives just in time
to help, but while she came for her father, the minute she and Xavier
see each other, desire burns as hotly as if they’d never been
apart. Xavier isn’t going to let her go this time. But before they
can rediscover the love they walked away from, they must first keep
each other alive.
