He has just finished a new novel, AN AMERICAN FABLE, and will soon publish BLOOD NEVER DRIES. Reviews of BENJAMIN GRABBED HIS GLICKEN AND RAN: from Library Journal: "One hopes BENJAMIN won't be dismissed as just another offbeat experimental novel. It is an exciting book!" from Publishers Weekly: "...Benjamin's personal story is wild, with an extraordinary made-up language and a pun-on-pun series of sentences... The novel builds to a strong, dramatic climax and the effect is chilling." from The Christian Science Monitor: "Like a child of Zeus sprung full grown from the head of their creator ... this novel has not received the attention it deserves... The novel is operating simultaneously on three planes and finally on a fourth. Benjamin as a character is oddly captivating ... virtuosic ... exacting descriptions of Benjamin's room, physical sensations, and emotions are like a zoom lens bringing one in intensely close to him. Benjamin says of his Mysteries: 'Words are only a small portion of my life... They are weak technicalities which fail... Words are only words. And besides, I lie a lot.' |

| Author bio: I never intended to be an author - it kind of happened by accident. I've always kept diaries since my teens (many years ago) and ended up with a collection of true stories about life but mainly food, dieting efforts, relationships, clothes shopping, shoes and chocolate - the usual type of women's issues, many of which, in particular, were pertinent to my current book, THE FAT BAG stuck between a rock cake & a hard plaice (I simply love the play on words). When this book came together, on advice from friends, I decided to publish it and writing became a worthy and enjoyable pastime. The title of the book has a double-meaning, which all gets explained at the end. I've continued the story by writing a sequel to THE FAT BAG which should be complete and published by early spring. |

Went there last summer on a road trip and did some extended camping where I was warned, "the bums go". You know why they go there? Because of the view and the trees. All my works that are for sale are currently in the Amazon KDP program. All my free works are here to stay for the community to enjoy. My most recent work is "Amigosa Calm"-A spiritual adventure drama with a world wide cultural revolution mixed in. What happens in the modern age when a prophet-like persona shows up and starts performing miracles? Both my "American Epitaph" books pay homage to all the conspiracy/doomer/anti-establishment movements. They center around a contemporary version of the American Revolution and are set in Phoenix where I grew up. "Occupy Our Common Ground" and "100 Things We Can Occupy" were written for and in the spirit of the Libertarian movements taking shape in our world today. Favorite anonymous quote: "I am more than I seem to be, yet seem to be more than I really am."

| It has been a year since Konstancji’s lover passed away, but rather than move on with his life, Konstancji works obsessively on a statue, which is the means through which he hopes to bring his beloved back from the dead. “Out of the Depths†is a gothic retelling of the “Pygmallion†myth. | |||||
| Author bio: I’ve lived most of my life in the San FranÂcisco Bay Area though I wasn’t born there (or, indeed, the USA). I’m marÂried with no kids and three cats, am a cycling nut (go Team Garmin!), and my day job involves artÂwork, crazy (read: incomÂpreÂhenÂsiÂbly fun) coworkÂers who speÂcialÂize in all kinds of media, and the occaÂsional strange cusÂtomer requests involvÂing papier mache fish with sparkly scales. I’m a writer of young adult ficÂtion, speÂcialÂizÂing in conÂtemÂpoÂrary fanÂtasy, hisÂtorÂiÂcal fanÂtasy, and hisÂtorÂiÂcal genÂres. My books range from a superÂhero fanÂtasy series to reworked folkÂtales to VicÂtoÂrian ghost ficÂtion. My themes are coming-of-age, with very litÂtle focus on romance (most of the time) and more on indiÂvidÂual growth with some advenÂture thrown in. StartÂing 2011, I’ll be writÂing and pubÂlishÂing adult ficÂtion titles, all of which will be pretty much comÂpleÂments of my curÂrent YA backÂlist. My adult ficÂtion titles will be someÂthing like the “grownup†verÂsions of the kinds of stoÂries I love writing. |

| Author bio: Jack Dash is a child of the fifties and grew up with a good clip round the ear from parents, teachers, and coppers alike – as did most kids of the time. He escaped from home at fifteen when he had to travel forty miles to college because he lived on the wrong side of the county border from the one a mile down the road. After college he took a degree in Computer Science and the first computer he worked on filled a room the size of bungalow, had 4k of memory and no disk space whatsoever – those were the days. He worked as a programmer for a number of years, until his boss decided to fire all the software people and use contractors instead. Jack was in two minds what to do with his redundancy money, use it set up his own software company or buy shares in a little company called Microsoft – which was just going public at the time. With his unfailing instinct for a good bet … he set up his own business. He did okay for a few years but, admittedly, not quite as well as if he had bought the shares instead. However, he did come up with a concept that would allow people to do their shopping on-line and he was all set to patent the idea but then he had a change of heart, he decided it would never catch on and canned the project – just before the Internet took off. At this point, Jack decided that being an entrepreneur was not all it was cracked up to be and decided to become a writer instead. After working as a copy-writer and technical author for some time, Jack is making his first foray into the world of science fiction with his Edge of Destiny trilogy. |

| Author bio: I am a writer of Fantasy, Speculative Fiction and Magic Realism who often uses comedy and absurdism to examine philosophical issues. I am known for my original ideas, intricate plots and entertaining wordplay! I write short stories, novellas and novels. I have been a writer from an early age. I completed my first proper short story when I was 14. It was called 'The Journey of Mountain Hawk' and I still remember what it was about, even though it no longer exists. None of my early work exists. My earliest surviving short story dates from 1989, and since that time I have embarked on an ambitious project of writing a story cycle consisting of exactly 1000 linked tales. Recently I decided to give this cycle an overall name -- PANDORA'S BLUFF. My main influences are writers such as Italo Calvino, Stanislaw Lem, Boris Vian, Flann O'Brien, Jack Vance and Jorge Luis Borges, all of whom have a very well-developed sense of irony and a powerful imagination. I love irony and satire, not only the 'negative' kind that seeks to undermine some form of injustice but also the 'positive' kind that takes sheer delight in its own playfulness. And yet I am also fully committed to engaging with serious themes. In fact, many years ago, I decided that I should find my own name for the style of writing I like best and the name I came up with was: "Romanti-Cynicism." The main idea behind this new genre is to combine humour and seriousness, to fuse the emotional with the intellectual, the profound with the lighthearted, the unfettered with the precise. My first book was published in 1995 and sold slowly but it seemed to strike a chord with some people. My second, third, fourth, etc, books sold much more strongly as my reputation increased. I have been told that I am a "cult author" and I'm pleased with the description, but obviously I also want to reach out to a wider audience! My twentieth book has just been published and I have many new books due to be released in the next two years. |

The results are unprecedented, thorough resolution of trauma and anxiety that appear to be permanent. Tom is well qualified to be an expert in resolving trauma.
