In his 30’s he was hosting home discussion groups and playing the organ in two different churches. By age 40 he had one of the largest collection of metaphysical books in Canada and had developed a 160 acre spiritual retreat which was attended by folks from all over the world. At the same time he organized university seminars and was featured on various radio shows and hosted a 33 week television series entitled “This Psychic World.” It was then that an editor from Doubleday came across some of his lecture papers and asked him to write an encyclopedia on parapsychology. That was almost 30 years ago. Once hooked, he has been writing ever since, during which time he had a construction business, a land development company, an architectural design practice, a vinyl window factory and a pewter foundry. The encyclopedia, updated and in a more popular style, is now available under the title GETTING REAL. A few years ago Kim was injured in a construction accident and is now confined to a wheelchair.

A Doghouse Tale by Bert Oldenhuis A Doghouse Tale by Bert Oldenhuis April 13, 2011 $4.99 213944 words Sample 20%
Author bio:
Bert Oldenhuis was born in the Netherlands in 1944 and emigrated with his family in the late fifties to the US, where his teen years were spent in Elmira, NY. He graduated from the US Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, NY, sailing in the capacity of third and second mate on US merchant vessels for a period of four years. After his sea-going days, he found employment ashore and almost immediately was dispatched to the Netherlands as sales support manager in the European Headquarters of his employer. He met and married his wife there and even though the USA beckoned, he could not persuade his better half to leave her beloved Holland, hence this is where he eventually settled and where he and his wife raised their three children. While in the various positions he held with his original employer and a subsequent number of others, he has had the chance to travel extensively within Europe, allowing him to gain more than a superficial view of the cultures behind the quilt that forms the map of this continent. His publication experience has been limited to technical research papers, technical articles in various magazines dedicated to the Oil and Gas industry, and translations of instruction manuals for large turbo and electrical machinery. However, time, opportunity, persuasion and encouragement has prompted him to venture more prosaic by weaving personal experiences and fiction into a humorous and readable account with the result of “A Doghouse Tale” as the first of a series.
A Dreamer's Knight by Michael Wilbur A Dreamer's Knight by Michael Wilbur Oct. 29, 2010 $3.33 96770 words Sample 50%
Author bio:
What can I say about myself? I'm a science fiction/fantasy author out to show that good sci-fantasy (or phantasy, as some call it) doesn't have to be all doom and gloom. I get seriously bummed when good heroes get killed for cheap drama, and love a good ol' happily ever after. As such, I jokingly call my chosen genre 'Bright Fiction'. When not writing, I'm usually hanging out with another member of the real Elsewhere Incorporate; a loose collection of dreamers who enjoy games, movies, and music. I'm a big epic metal and punk rock fan, though I do enjoy most music genres. I enjoy games that are fun (such as Saints Row 2 and Burnout Paradise), but also like a good story (Mass Effect 2 ... and before you ask, Tali.) As for movies, well ... I've been watching Mystery Science Theater 3000 lately to get in touch with my inner nerd. I enjoy chaos and coincidence, I love twists and time travel. More than anything, however, I want those who read my books to enjoy themselves. I hope this universe I've created becomes a sanctuary from the real world for anyone, even if just for a short while. I tried to write all this in the third person, but it sounded incredibly pretentious. I mean, I know I wrote this, you know I wrote this ... who would I be trying to fool?

Storyteller! I'm an old West Texas boy, grew up in Big Spring, Texas. I have three children,and one of them still lives in Big Spring. I now make my home in South Texas. I've written 19 Novels and Novellas and will continue to write as long as there is a story to tell. I try to write things that young people can read. I'm a strong believer that you don't have to use descriptive sex or off color language to tell a story. I should caution you though that in an action story there is always some violence. I am an avid musician and a United States Army Viet Nam Veteran. I write several different genre and probably always will. My favorite is Action/Adventure or Westerns. My work was published by another company and is now marketed by VGR. I also can be found at several web sites. I never wanted to be a great author or counted as one of the really intelligent people of our time. All I've ever strived for is to entertain. I write stories about people who struggle to be who they are. It may sound strange, coming from a fiction author, but I try to make my characters believable. It is an honor that you're interested in my work. A writer or a musician is nothing without someone to share their creations. Thank you for being that person. You may also find a song or two that I've written on You Tube. Please join me on Facebook with the rest of my author friends. I enjoy comments and having my readers drop me a line, so when you run across my sites or find me on Facebook, feel free to write me. It might take a day or two to get back to you, but I will.

A Grizzly End by Donna Champagne A Grizzly End by Donna Champagne Jan. 11, 2010 $1.99 55561 words Sample 30%
Author bio:
Since I was 14 years old, I have been fascinated by human/bear encounters in the wilderness. A lifelong dream of visiting Alaska came true in 2003 when my husband, my sister and I took a cruise up the Inside Passage. We visited several cities along the Alaska Panhandle and ended up in Anchorage. The highlight of the trip was a raft ride down ten miles of the Chilkat River through the Bald Eagle Sanctuary. Alaska is one of the most beautiful places on earth and I hope to visit again someday. During the past 45 years, I have acquired over 30 books featuring true stories about bear attacks on people. Some of the victims lived to tell the tale and some didn't, but they were all heart-pounding adventure stories that I devoured ravenously because I love the excitement of human/animal encounters in the wild. They point out the resilient nature of the human psyche and the strength and stamina of both bears and people. In addition to the aforementioned, I am also a digital imaging artist and I offer my services to other authors in need of ebook cover art. Please view samples on my web page: http://digitaldonna.com/ I would be happy to work with you.
A Guest for Halloween - Redux Edition by William Henderson A Guest for Halloween - Redux Edition by William Henderson Oct. 27, 2011 $1.99 27260 words Sample 20%
Author bio:
I have come to understand that happiness is a byproduct of working at something you enjoy and not a goal in itself. It can be anything, a sport, musical instrument or hobby, as long as it takes effort and discipline. Some time ago I realized that one of the things that truly made me happy was writing. Anything that gets people, especially young people to read is wonderful. However, it is tragic that we have separated and withdrawn from the real world to such an extent that we no longer see the mystery and wonders of nature that are our birthright. The Lex & Ricky Mysteries are meant to expose young people to the wonders of the natural world and our collective native heritage. An awareness of sustainability issues is provided along with questioning the cost of trading away our inheritance for short lived "prosperity," often to people who do not live in our communities. Most people cannot possibly imagine the rich natural and spiritual life they are denying themselves.

Author bio:
Born in Ohio, and moved to Arizona as a young boy, B.K. Gore found at a young age on that Sonoran Desert, that along with the long views of Far Country, he had a love for story telling. That creates a problem for a young fella though. The trouble with youth, for a writer, is a shortage of experience. Life experience being the raw materials which a writer needs to build his stories, it makes writing a tougher go for the young. As a teenager, his first love was horses and cowboyin'; with no way to make a living, telling stories, having occurred to him anyway. The years took him from wrangling and cowboying as a teenager, through two hitches in the U.S. Army; from which he was evicted after he got busted up and the army claimed he was too stove up to soldier any more. So, he went back to cowboyin' for a good number of years, 'cause he was too dumb to do anything else! Mixed in there, before, in between and after the army, was a stint in the copper mines of Arizona, the oil fields in New Mexico, more ranches and farms, and even a few runs at carpet cleaning, selling hardware, driving truck and producing custom leather goods. Whatever it took to pay the bills. In between the town jobs, were the ranches, farms and bull studs, where the horses, cows and mules, always pulled him back. All along the way, unrealized at the time, he was amassing a stock of experience from which to carve new stories, and honing his skills at spinning those tales. It wasn't until he crossed over onto the shady side of the mountain, that he recognized that people seemed to actually enjoy his stories, and and at the same time, stumbled upon the vehicle he could use to present his tales to the public. So now, he spends his time, building his tales of Honor, Betrayal, and Lonely Courage, wherever he sets his boondock camps. He is a, Vagabond, story telling, cowboy biker, living on the road, and banging around the west he loves.

Author bio:
I have been writing fiction for 20 years, mainly for children and young adults. My first publishing success was in 1992 and I have continued to produce novels and short stories for children, young adults and the adult market. In the mid-1990s I was writing for UQP’s Storybridge series. Since then I have branched out into self-publishing. In 2002 I established my business Agneau Press with my son Chris Platt who is a graphic designer. To date Agneau Press has published seven of my own novels as well as a book entitled Queenie’s Diary: A Schoolgirl’s Life 1914-1915 which was produced for Ipswich Girls Grammar School Old Girls Association. I sell my books through direct marketing, local bookshops and at markets in Ipswich. The first run of 200 copies of Seeking Sarah, my most popular book, sold out in the middle of last year and has now been reprinted. My children’s book No Everyday Dragon has been so popular with younger readers and their parents I have now written two more books in the series: A Pocketful of Tears and The Sandalwood Box. In the three years I have been selling from my market stall I have established a loyal readership who, unfortunately, can read a great deal faster than I can write!
