Genre: Fiction, Thriller, Suspense

Tell us a bit about yourself.

I was born in Baytown, Texas not far from Houston.  A southern girl at heart, I have lived most of my life in California.  Except for a few years spent in Alaska while my husband, Dan, was in the U.S. Army.My husband and I have two grown children and many pets. Multiple dogs, cats and a very curious cockatoo named Clyde. My husband and I have traveled across the country and have visited thirty eight states in the U.S. some multiples times.  Through our travels is where I get some of the inspirations for my stories.

Writing short stories here and there while growing up, being a private person, I never shared my writings, even with close friends or family.   Much less allow them to be made public.  I was strongly encouraged to publish my first novel, Fear’s Revenge in September 2013.  I received tremendous feedback from readers so I decided to release my second novel, Return to Lily Cove in March 2014 and just his past August I released my third novel, Gabrielle, lost and I am currently working on my fourth novel in the series, Feathers in the Wind.  Hopefully, I can get this one done and released in early 2016. 

What is one of your favorite positive sayings or quotes?

Be true to yourself. 

Who or What inspired you to start writing this book?

I kept having scenes run through my mind and after a few days of it repeating itself I decided to start writing them down.  Day after day until the first book was done.  Then it was onto the next story.

What three words would you use to describe this book?

Roller Coaster Ride

Who is your target group for this book?

My books are about women in their late 30's.  Because basically us women are never older than that, right ladies?  So my target group is women 18 and over.  I feel that some of the chapters are a little graphic, so I wouldn't recommend them for younger audiences.

Tell us about this book.

Gabrielle Grimaldi, the former party girl from Fears Revenge, thought she had finally found the right man, Frank, to settle down with.  Her career in the fashion world was beginning to take off.  That is, until she gets the opportunity to do some training in Italy and meets Giada Rosso, a wild Italian, fast driving, hot tempered fashion house maverick that would be her trainer.  The two women have an instant connection.  Then Gabrielle meets Antonio, Gia’s brother and tensions begin to rise between the three of them.  She finds herself reverting back to her wilder ways.

Gabrielle soon discovers that her new found friends have a questionable family business on the dark side of the law.  She soon discovers shipments in the family vineyard wine bottles hidden amongst fabrics for the fashion house. Soon she must decide between her boyfriend in America and her new friends in Italy.  Confusion and tension rise as emotions continue to run high as kidnapping and sexual encounters ensue.Gabrielle then learns the connection between her boyfriend and her new friends in Italy. 

Do you have a favorite chapter from this book?

In Gabrielle, lost, my favorite chapter would be hmm . . . that's a tough one.  There are many scenes in that novel that I really feel good about.  Maybe cooking the lobsters in Chapter 1?  Or maybe being chasing around the office by her trainer.  Very tense and funny at the same time. 

What do you hope people will gain from reading this book?

Well, I hope they enjoy reading my novels for stories themselves.  I do hope the readers ultimately get the message that regardless of what or how your life has turned out we make our life what we want.  If we don't like what we have been dealt with in life, we have the inner power and strength to change it. 

Is your book in Print, ebook or both?

All my novels are available in print in pefect bound, hard bound and in ebook for those readers to download on their ipads, tablets and smart phone.

What advice would you give to other Writers?

Write, just write.  Write it down.  Whatever comes to mind.  It may not make sense to you right now, but later on it might.  Just keep writing, never give up something you love doing.

Tell us about this book.

Lillian Anderson thought she had everything that she was entitled to in life. She married her college sweetheart, David, and was a successful and well-respected child psychotherapist in sunny California.Fast forward a decade. Lillian now finds herself stuck in a loveless marriage to a man that had become a womanizing drunk. Her life had become mundane and routine. That is until she met with her newest patient and her ghostly playmate.

Lillian's life is instantly turned upside down as she is drawn into the paranormal world of unsettled spirits and their unfinished business in our earthly world. She is given a rare opportunity to change events in her past to assist her with getting her present and future back onto the path that was her destiny. With the help of a special friend, and a few old ones from her childhood hometown, Lillian tries to find the one event that changed her life in some scary, funny and some adult situations.

Do you have a favorite chapter from this book?

In Return to Lily Cove, my favorite chapter would probably be chapter 5 when she runs into her old high school boyfriend.  But to be honest there are a few chapters in that novel that I like.  It would be difficult to pull out just one of them.

What do you hope people will gain from reading this book?

Well, I hope they enjoy reading my novels for stories themselves.  I do hope the readers ultimately get the message that regardless of what or how your life has turned out we make our life what we want.  If we don't like what we have been dealt with in life, we have the inner power and strength to change it.

Allison Symms had forgotten everything about that night over twenty years ago.  The night she was held captive in an old cabin in the woods. Last thing she can remember is running through the woods and crashing head on into something, falling back knocking herself unconscious.She doesn’t remember anything about that night until one day she gets knocked over by a city bus taking a turn to sharp and hits her head against a flower planter and goes unconscious once again.  Then she begins to have horrific nightmares and flashbacks to events that she can’t remember.

After seeing her therapist and undergoing hypnosis, all is revealed about the lost events of that one traumatic night. Allison decides to take the law into her own hands and take Fears Revenge on the four boys that held her captive.As each detailed step of revenge Allison takes against, Cole, Tyler, Tony and Bobby she is beginning the healing and growing process in more ways than she bargained for.

Book Title and Subtitle: 

Book 1: Advance 3-D Matrix Chess: The Longitudinal S.G. 14 Model – Single Set Games , Book One Vol. 1. (An In-depth Perspective of Sequential Conglomerates Informatics, Single Set Games Book 1 Vol. 1)

Book 2: Renaissance To The Dawn Of A New Age, Single Set Games, Book One Vol. 2: 

Genre: Non-Fiction, How to, Games

                                          

Tell us a bit about yourself.

I am the first author and founder of the game of Advance 3-D Chess to conceive of the idea of practically playing chess from a 3-Dimensional perspective.  My unique, one-of-a-kind chess book contains Diagrams, Illustrations, Drawings and Photos displaying key information about the game board, The Longitudinal Star Gate 14 Model, which makes the game fun and easy to understand.  It is imperative that readers understand the fundamental aspects of conventional chess to allow for the easy digestion of the new information which my chess book so vividly portrays.  My chess book and e-book contain the Equations or Statements of each movement of the chess pieces relevant to the game(s).  The equations display the Greek letters and spatial relationships and relativity of the chess pieces on the game board.  The language of chess is indeed an expression of mathematical spatial relativity.  I work hard to provide to my audience the necessary tools that makes relearning the game entertaining and easy to understand.

What is one of your favorite positive sayings or quotes?

My favorite quotes are:  “In Advance 3-D chess, when you have exhausted most of the possibilities, whatever remains, however improbable, then becomes possible.”

“Through Jesus, I have found and am a founder of Advance Matrix Chess. “

“ Advance chess is a game of almost limitless possibilities and probabilities.”

Who or What inspired you to start writing this book?

My cousin, Robert H. Brown was influential in my decision to write this book.  Writing is a magnificent tool that enables me to promote my ideas of Advance Chess to help enlighten others about the new styles and art forms of playing Advance 3-D chess as opposed to the rather draconian ways of conventional chess and to offer some important moral compass for those readers who have an open mind to newer opportunities to explore and to exhaust the tapestry of psychological warfare under the philosophical guidance to exhaust the possibilities to newer, informative approaches to life in general.  My rather unique chess book allows readers to Live for Greatness, the Greatness which comes from their minds and their hearts.  It espouses the philosophy that, “You are what you think, you think, therefore you are”.  The book dares readers to explore and to rediscover their innate and yet dormant passion for excellence in their quintessential cognition quest along a journey that provides fun and entertainment in the process.  My writing began upon conceiving the concepts of Advance Matrix Chess.  There was a need to add excitement and pizzazz to the games of classical conventional chess, to raise the bar of the games to higher levels of sophistication, to test the plasticity boundary limit ranges of a human full spectrum cognitive elasticity cognition capacity, potentiality and endurance and to provide chess readers different, dynamic perspectives to their intelligence tests for Logistics and Strategic Diagnostic and Prognostic Analysis.   In order to achieve these objectives, I discovered newer ways of playing chess using Advance 3-Dimensional models (Model III is just one of these models to name a few) to enhance the potential dynamics and kinetics of the game.  Thus, writing provides a practical tool, amongst many, to reach out to the masses, who share similar interests and who are eager to explore and to exhaust newer awareness of concepts for playing chess at Advance Distributive Logistics Levels. 

What three words would you use to describe this book?

The three words to describe my book are: FANTASTIC! AWESOME!  and EXHILERATING!

Who is your target group for this book?

My audience for this book is Beginners, Intermediates, Semi-Professionals and Professionals at the game of conventional chess.

Tell us about this book

.

My book contains Diagrams, Illustrations, Drawings and Photos about the Single Set games.  The Equations are used to describe the movements of the chess pieces relative to one another.  This book, Book 1 Vol. 1, adds excitement and pizzazz to what may seem to be a boring conventional chess game.

Do you have a favorite chapter from this book?

My favorite chapter from this book is my message to my audience.

What do you hope people will gain from reading this book?

Readers who benefit from my book are:
- those who may find that the classical game of conventional chess a bit boring.
-those chess readers who are eager to learn the new, exciting concepts of Advance Matrix Chess.
- those chess readers who are chess enthusiasts and have high expectations of the game.
- those readers who have an open mind and are receptive to newer challenges of the chess games.
- those readers who seek finger-nail-biting, seat-gripping excitement for the new games of 3-D chess.
- those chess readers who crave for hours of entertainment with non-conventional ,out-of-the-box strategic games that are mind-boggling, mind-baffling and mind-blowing.
- readers who may play chess as a hobby and who take joy in experiencing for the first time the learning experience about the complexities and challenges of the intense psychological warfare of Matrix Chess.
- readers who crave for the ULTIMATE battle plan war games.
- chess readers who desperately want to divulge into the pseudo-dynamics and quasi-kinetics World of Chess in order to explore and to exhaust the opportunities to test the plasticity boundary limit ranges of their full spectrum cognitive elasticity cognition capabilities and potentialities.
- those chess readers who may want a different perspective to their intelligence test for Logistic and Strategic Diagnostics and Prognostics Analysis.
- chess readers who want to acquire the new, exciting gaming knowledge about Advance 3-D Chess and to progress ahead of the learning curve well above the Masters and Grand-Masters of the classical games of conventional chess.
- chess readers who crave for the ULTIMATE  Collector’s book item in chess gaming.

Is your book in Print, ebook or both?

My book is in both Print and e-book format.

What advice would you give to other Writers?

My advice to other writers is that the publishing business has a competitive market which many authors both well-known because the readership love their style or genre of writing and unknown because the author may be new to the industry.  It is important that your work in your genre stands out from the crowd of published authors.

Book Title and Subtitle: Video Store in a Box: A Guide to Free Television and Movies on the Internet

Genre: Nonfiction, Film and TV

                                               

     

Tell us a bit about yourself.

My name is Chris Mason and for the last 20 years I have been a house husband raising three kids with special needs. During this time I received my Bachelors in Psychology and a Master’s in Education. Due to the fact that all my children went to an online charter school, I had to find ways to save money and found many free resources through the internet. In fact I still think it is funny when I first asked my daughter’s teachers for resources that could help her when she first entered the world of Online schooling, I only received 3 websites. I thought 3 websites from 6 teachers was a sad state of affairs, so Tutor in a Box was born. That was years ago now. My eldest daughter was in sixth grade then, now she is a sophomore in college.

My other books were born out of two things that happened at the same time. First, my family had to give up cable to save money but my kids still wanted to see the then popular That’s so Raven. Second, my mother came up with Mason Day to teach my kids that they did not need a lot of money to give someone a nice gift. Mason Day was when a person was assigned a family member and had to make them something, spending only 20 dollars. My thought was "“Oh my God”. I had no artistic skills like my daughters’ and could not build things like my son, but I did have impressive research skills. So the “In the Box” series of books was born. All are reference guides to the best free stuff in a particular area. The series currently includes:

Tutor in a Box - A guide to free educational resources.

Book Store in a Box - A guide to free print and audio books.

Arcade in a Box – A guide to free video games.

Video store in a Box – A guide to free Television and Movies.

Record Store – A guide to free music

What is one of your favorite positive sayings or quotes?
