Dark Quarry: A Mike Angel Private Eye Mystery | by David H Fears Jan. 08, 2011 | $2.99 | 69370 words | Sample 10% |
| Author bio: David was known by the handle “professor†as a boy (no doubt the thick black spectacles, Buddy Holly style), and has had a lifetime interest in Mark Twain. He has also written nearly one hundred short stories with about sixteen published, and four Mike Angel PI mystery novels, one, Dark Blonde, published by Amazon. Fears is a pretty handy name for horror stories, but he also has written mainstream nostalgic, literary, some fantasy/magical realism, as well as the PI novels. For the past five years he has devoted his full time to producing Mark Twain Day By Day, a four-volume annotated chronology in the life of Samuel L. Clemens. Two volumes are now available, and have been called, “The Ultimate Mark Twain Reference†by top Twain scholars. His aim for these books is “to provide a reference and starting-off place for the Twain scholar, as well as a readable book for the masses,†one that provides many “tastes†of Twain and perspective into his complex and fascinating life. He understands this is a work that will never be “finished†— in fact, he claims that no piece of writing is ever finished, only abandoned after a time. As a historian, David enjoys mixing historical aspects in his fiction. David is a semi-retired teacher (meaning he may continue to teach college writing) whose had some success in real estate and computer businesses, sandwiched between his undergraduate studies in the early 70s and his masters degree in education and composition, awarded in 2004. He was born and raised in Portland, Oregon, and has lived in New England, Southern California and Nevada. David looks at least ten years younger than his age (67) and is the father of three girls, the grandfather of four and the great-grandfather of two; he’s written, “It all shows what you can do if you fool around when you’re very young.†David’s a card. How many of us think humor has a place in mystery tales or history tomes? He claims his calico cat Sophie helps him edit his stories while lying across his arm when he is composing, and sinking her claws in with any poorly drawn sentence. As a writer, a humorist, a cat lover and father of girls, he relates well to Clemens. Writing hardboiled PI novels is his way of saying "NUTS!" to politically correct fiction. |

This gay person categorization has been allotted with great negativity, seemingly to invoke a sense of shame into its inhabitants. Shame is not the gay man’s to be borne.

The Letter | by Marcus Hades Jan. 08, 2011 | Free! | 3394 words | Read a sample |
| Author bio: An idea thriving in a human form that wishes to realize the truth at any cost – yearning to better the soul day after day. My relationships form the most important part of my life. My goal is to become better (not bitter) in this world in which emotions have become selfish, transitory, fake, ludicrous and materialistic - and this disappoints me. I wish to cast out the unnecessary in myself and in everyone who can read me. I believe in God but challenge his logics. I choose to learn from darkness in all its forms. I write not to please anyone but only to explore myself and pen my thoughts down for the ones who wish to read them. I write stories to amuse myself and others. I write poetry because I believe it is one of the most beautiful forms of expression and to keep the world of literature alive. Human emotions may be fleeting, but words are immortal. I am not a philosopher – because they have merely written and thought from their perspective. I seek to be empathetic and see the world from various eyes and viewpoints. I seek insight into mine and the human psyche. |

Nine Lives- A Journey Through Life | by Dan Fox Jan. 08, 2011 | You set the price! | 76342 words | Sample 5% |
| Author bio: Nine Lives is the first novel from the author, Dan Fox. The author writes about life, asking questions and provoking thoughts about emotions and feelings that touch us all. He has a distinctive voice, a unique style of writing which flows and is somewhat poetic. With an incredibly honest approach and a certain rawness, his writing gives a deep and meaningful insight into love and life. Painting pictures with words, his writing takes the reader on an emotional journey containing many reflections on life, so purposely provoking discussion in the reader’s mind, a quiet contemplation; but without seeking to give a view - indeed, it is as if the reader is joining the author on a journey of discovery as he finds these different thoughts arriving within him. Dan Fox is the nom de plume of Ian Wilson, a father of three who was born into the typical middle classes of an old English seaside town, Ian left for the bright lights of London as soon as he could and after studying law at King’s College London, he spent 8 years in Hong Kong where he soon left behind a legal career as ‘too boring’ and has since built successful business interests that have taken him all over the globe. He now lives in the mountains of Switzerland with his beautiful wife, children and three dogs. Nine Lives is his first finished novel, with more projects currently under creation. |

| Author bio: I am an associate professor for the University of Maryland, Asian Division, currently based in Japan. I have lived and taught in Micronesia, Oman, the Czech Republic, Arizona, and California. When I am not teaching in Japan, I am building cabins in Queensland, Australia. I love hiking and scuba diving. My favorite hikes are in Austria; my favorite diving is in PNG. I have written several stage plays, three of which have been produced three times each. "Ti Jean", about the life and times of Beat writer Jack Kerouac, has been produced at an arts theatre in Tucson, AZ, and twice at universities in Missouri. "The Hickey", a one act comedy, was originally produced at The Temple of Arts and Music Caberet Theatre in Tucson, AZ; it received subsequent productions in Phoenix, AZ at Paradise Valley Community College and at Atherton Performing Arts in Queensland, Australia (2005). "Lobby Rats", a full-length farce, has been produced three times as well: once at the Historic Hotel Congress in downtown Tucson, AZ; another time at a hotel in Culver City, CA; and lastly, on video that was entered into some fringe film contest in Canada (2003). I am currenly writing skits and short plays for language learning to be used by EFL students and their teachers. |

And it was satisfying writing The Perfect Society, I am glad I now have my thoughts on this subject down for all to read. Its important we aspire to having a better society. Of course, I have to add that my Eurovision Betting Guide 2011 accurately predicted the $11 to $1 winner using my clever little Eurovision system, not bad picking the winner out of 43 entrants. I hope you like my ebooks. |
