The Versailles Conspiracy

Feedback on this book has been great!



"The plot of this book is amazing! The details the author provides about each character is unbelievable; the author has the ability to make the reader feel the "vibes" that person would put off like yo

u were there. The plot is thick from the beginning and only gets thicker as the story goes on. I though I had figured it out and was way off in the end; it will definitely keep you…

Karen Anna Vogel talks about Amish friends who inspire her writing.

What is your connection to the Amish?
 I live ½ hour away from Smicksburg, PA, a large Old Order Amish settlement. I shop at their stores and we hired Amish men to help remodel our century old farmhouse. It’s been fifteen years of remodeling, (still not done…) so we got to know many men and their families. On their breaks, they love to talk and swap stories, and I always have 1001 questions, ranging from “Do you grow celery for weddings?”(They had no idea what I was talking…

Alpha is Here!

I know it seems as if I’m changing my blog schedule weekly. What I list as topics for the next week’s blog doesn’t always appear. I’ve delayed some things or postponed topics because of mitigating circumstances. My topics get pushed aside for author interviews because I want to do my part to promote others.

 

Part of the problem has been I’ve been…

7 Ways to Fix the Economy

Anyone with half a brain can see that the U.S. economy is in a malaise.  It’s just muddling along.  Unemployment is still high.  Economic growth is low.  Prices are rising for goods and services (just think gas prices and food prices).  Job creation is low (people you know that have been unemployed are still unemployed).  Small businesses are still struggling to survive given decreased demand and tight credit.  The real estate market is in the tank; house prices are still falling…

10 Ways for the Federal Government to Save Money Immediately

The massive federal budget deficits of the last several years have resulted in an unprecedented increase in our national debt.  Since President Obama came to office, the national debt has soared from $10 trillion to nearly $16 trillion, a 50% increase.  This uncontrolled federal spending and the accompanying increase in the level of national debt cannot continue.  Otherwise we will find ourselves in the same situation as Greece,…

Like what you see?

I wake up, at no particular set time, and make my way to the bathroom for the morning (or maybe early afternoon) duties.

I look in the mirror, steamed over from a skin-reddening hot shower. Like any of us, I sometimes ask, "Do I like what I see?"

"Sure." The answer is usually, "Sure, I'm fine with that." Most of the time, the thoughts do not travel much beyond that point.

Today, they did. Today, the wet smear of my handprint revealed a face I did not recognize in that dubious…

WHAT DO YOU BRING TO THE TABLE?

Independent presses have a lot to offer today's aspiring authors. The slush pile is smaller and the chance for an unknown, untried author to get a contract is greater. Unlike large publishing houses, there's still very personal interaction between editors and writers. Unlike self-pubbed books, the publishing house takes care of cover art, lay-out, printing and distribution. Authors are nurtured and a bond builds between the author and…
