	Kunstwerke von Liebe geschaffen	by Ludovít Bari Aug. 31, 2011	$9.99	59046 words	Sample 15%
	Author bio: Ludek Bari was born in 1949 in Czechoslovakia. In the 1980´s, he had an epiphany upon seeing wood carvings from Cuba, and fell in love with wood and wood carving. He started to carve wood reliefs. He thought that if he infused his carvings with tenderness, music, and poetry,they would give people the chills of aesthetic pleasure that he himself felt while carving. As he perfected his craft on figures of musicians, he realized that musical instruments, specifically the violin, contain all the elements he sought to portray. On his own, he learned the art of violin-making, and inspired by nature,especially by the female body, he crafted sculptural violins that were as beautiful to the eye as to the ear. His love of the female body has survived in his violin-making, wood carving, painting, and graphics to this day. His work has been the subject of an Australian documentary, and his sculptures and violins have been on display in numerous Prague galleries.

	Author bio: Once upon a time, in a former life, I had a Literary Agent who is now world class. Around the same time, I was paid to write 3 plays for a well-known Theatre Director. In no time at all, my first novel was published. These succeeding events, spread over 2/3 years, were so disappointing that I then gave up writing for 20+ years. Now decrepit and bed-ridden, I am making a late comeback. If I can attract a few readers with this off-beat piece, I will proceed to upload a couple of full-size novels (equally off-beat). AAP

	Le Vent d'Avezan	by Gaelle Kermen Dec. 18, 2010	$4.99	63891 words	Sample 20%
	Author bio: Gaelle Kermen, auteur numérique francophone Née en 1946 en Bretagne sud, France, Gaelle Kermen a reçu une formation en philosophie, sociologie et droit aux universités de Paris : Assas, la Sorbonne et Vincennes Paris-8 (1964-72). Gaelle Kermen est une pionnière du web depuis 1995 dès les débuts sur Compuserve, alors que rien n'existe encore en français, considérant qu'il faut s'impliquer en tant qu'auteur, pour que le web ne reste pas anglophone. Elle publie son roman de jeunesse Aquamarine 67 en février 1997 sur son premier site internet du Club-Internet, puis sur ceux de Wanadoo et Free (archives de 1997 à 2009). Elle ouvre une des premières boutiques en ligne francophones (service en gestion du temps par la chronodynamie) dès mars 1998 sur un serveur américain implanté en Europe, ce qui permet de lever l'interdiction française de cryptage des données, réservé aux militaires. Le réseau de l'Internet a bien évolué depuis les débuts. Désormais elle blogue sur Wordpress, selon ses sujets de prédilection : chantiers maison et jardin, voyages, écriture. Elle expérimente les réseaux sociaux comme une expérience sociologique et une discipline quotidienne d'écriture, dans les statuts Twitter de 140 signes et les profils Facebook en 420 signes. Fidèle d'Apple™ depuis 1992, elle rêve d'avoir un iPad®, dont l'innovation lui parait une révolution aussi importante que lui apparaissait celle de l'internet en 1995, alors que peu de gens y croyaient et se formaient à ce changement de comportements. Lorsque Amazon ouvre sa plateforme d'édition numérique aux auteurs et éditeurs non anglophones le 18 janvier 2010, elle publie immédiatement Aquamarine 67 sur ce support de diffusion dès le 20 janvier. Elle s'y sent un peu seule comme auteur francophone, étant entourée de gens éminents certes, mais tous morts, comme Verne, Hugo, Dumas, Racine, Corneille, Zola... Aussi lorsque Steve Jobs présente l'iPad la semaine suivante, elle décide d'être présente sur ce support révolutionnaire dès les débuts. Grâce à l'éditeur numérique Mark Coker, créateur de Smashwords, http://www.smashwords.com, le pari est tenu. Les oeuvres sont publiées sans DRM (Digital Rights Management ou bloquage des droits numériques). Gaelle Kermen écrit sur la vie, le rythme des saisons, la politique, l'histoire du monde, les technologies qui améliorent la vie des êtres vivants, la littérature, la musique, la peinture, le jardin, le travail du bois ou du chanvre, pour la construction d'un cadre de vie permettant l'épanouissement de chacun en harmonie avec le monde qui le porte. Gaelle Kermen fait le pari de l'indépendance des auteurs vis à vis des autres acteurs de l'édition. Elle appelle les auteurs francophones à investir le réseau en sortant des chemins balisés pour de nouveaux paradigmes, de meilleurs droits et une meilleure relation avec le lectorat, but premier de l'écriture. Ayant acquis un AmazonKindle3 pour corriger ses livres, elle redécouvre ce que Roland Barthes appelait Le Plaisir du Texte. Elle voyage avec les Grands Auteurs du Domaine public, dans sa poche, Proust, Platon, Tolstoi, Shakespeare et leurs camarades au cours des siècles avec un bonheur sans limite. Gaelle Kermen, 64 ans, vit en ermite sur un domaine en Bretagne qu'elle restaure et entretient seule. Elle y écrit ses cahiers (1960-2010) et reste connectée au monde par internet et les réseaux sociaux. Elle a fait le choix de ne publier ses écrits qu'en mode numérique.

After teaching at writers conferences throughout the Midwest, she founded/directed the 3-day Mid-America Fellowship of Christian Writers conferences for four years until 1990. Photographic art entered by 2007, and within two years Villanueva was dubbed the Grandma Moses of the American Southwest by her artistic peers, and is represented in several online and walk-in art galleries across the nation. Critically acclaimed in the June 19, 2008 issue of the Rio Grande Sun: …Villanueva is one of those rare individuals who uses new technology…to take a digital image to a new and exciting level….With some photographers this digitizing and manipulation are evident and stumbling...not so with Villanueva's work, which is sophisticated and well thought out….She has a knack for transferring her impression of a scene to the viewer that is remarkable and almost magical. As Aggie states; The Fairy Trail is real, folks. Welcome To My Path.”
