Blood, suspense, mystery, intrigue what are you looking for in a good read? Well, this one has them all. Molly Edwards goes for broke in her debut effort and delivers the goods, in spades. I can say I was NOT surprised when I got a chance to read this. Her ability to write is evident in the first paragraph. She knows how to create a universe and draw us into her characters’ lives and make us care about them very quickly. I think you have gathered by now that I really enjoy the digital short…

Hello,

I'm a new member and here seemed as good a place as any to introduce myself.

My name is Grace Elliot and I am a veterinarian by day, and author of historical romance by night.

My debut novel is 'A Dead Man's Debt' and around November 2011, a follow up book, 'Eulogy's Secret' is due to be released, along with a non-fiction book 'Cat Pies' - about feline related historical trivia.

Dreams are priceless, however reaching them and making them a reality can be rather costly.  Why, you ask?  Well, when I say costly, I don’t necessarily speak in terms of money, but rather in heart and soul. 

Every single person, in this world, has dreams.  Some may be huge, some may be small.  This varies, mind you, depending on who the person is and where they stand in life.  A person who has known poverty and strife all of their life may dream of the time when they will be able to…

Hello, Authors.com,

I was invited here by the talented and charming Tracey Alley, so I thought I'd introduce myself.

I am the author of one novel so far, but I'll be adding to that total very soon.

My current novel is MOST LIKELY, a young-adult coming-of-age novel that deals with the theme of pressure... pressure of all kinds... and how one young girl deals with it all. While it contains light Christian themes, it's not a heavy-handed religious…

I just finished reading this novel, and I have to say that I enjoyed the last part of it more than the beginning. Why you might ask? The reason is that halfway through my reading of the novel I had the good fortune of interviewing the author on my blogtalk radio show The G-ZONE. Matthew Dunn’s voice is smooth, silky, and yet vibrant. I had gotten a sense of why and how he was able to recruit so many spies; he was pretty captivating. I had his voice in my head as I read the rest of the novel,…

Paranormal, sci-fi, horror, oh my! For a debut effort, April Pohren made this look easy, scary and fun. “Dream Me to Death” is a very nice, horrific, and nerve rattling digital short story that is going to keep you glued to your e-reader. I do not care what device you read this on: smartphone, laptop, ereader, computer, your rapt attention will be necessary. Being able to pull yourself away from this will be tough. I thoroughly enjoyed the way she sucked me in and made me focus on her…

Happy Monday to everyone! Trust me I understand; getting started on a Monday is a drag, but with a story like this to get that boulder started up the mountain again, it makes it that much easier. William Tooker has started a really mind expanding digital short story series here with “Bad Angels” .Check out the synopsis below and you will see I kid you not. William Tooker creates a universe with this story that is smoldering, foreboding and all together intimidating. The prose Tooker…

    My objective as a novelist is to offer the readers enjoyable sci-fi stories that are not over their heads with deliberate uncommon words and concepts that only an Einstein can comprehend. Exciting, easy to read stories, offering everyone much more than just science fiction. I love twisting comedy, love, drama, adventure, horror, action, and mystery into my stories. I truly hope everyone will enjoy reading my stories as much as…

Your walking, unto my abundant abyss, my chambers of thought. Where i envision an extent of the universe, the borderline of creation. Is it bliss beyond everything we've come to know? Will the people learn to appreciate what they own if they are abandoned here, or will they become deranged?  Will nothing become monotonous?

Some of my words and thought. Please like me on Facebook.…

I truly believe that all of us are given a variety of gifts by God that he wants us to use for his purpose as well as our benefit. I have been told that I have a good voice by the members of the church my family attends. I do like to sing and I serve as a Cantor at our church.

I also enjoy writing. Sometimes ideas pop into my head about story lines, I'll even get a full paragraph sort of like an introduction to a magazine article or story. Fleshing out the idea and giving it…

Last Love

By Felisha

I loved this boy, I loved him so,

I can't believe he let me go.

He sat this girl upon his knee

and said he chose her instead of me.

My mum came home late that night,

she looked for me I was nowhere in sight.

She went to my room my room was all red,

all it took was one bullet to the head.

She dropped to her knees and picked me up.

And my family…

You are saying to yourself, wait, wasn’t there another digital short called “Fangs,Inc.” out already? Is this the same thing? Is this story just redundant? First off redundant is a large word for me to use, so hold tight here. The real deal on this is this: The Author’s Lab/Collaboration series has created a series within a series. Yeah, how do you like those apples?  I am fortunate to be able to work with not one but at least two different authors right now that have vampires in their…

Have you ever looked carefully at the time you spend promoting your work? I'd always thought I had a good feel for this but recently I had a surprise.

On a one week break recently in a remote place (The English Lake District), I had to make some special arrangements to provide internet access so that I could continue promoting my thriller  'Take No More'. So, I bought and installed a 3G dongle, you know, one of those gizmos that slips into the USB slot on your laptop. It…
