Intimate Distance by Karla Brandenburg Intimate Distance by Karla Brandenburg Jan. 09, 2011 $3.99 80655 words Sample 5%
Author bio:
Before I had reached the age of 10, Simon and Schuster received my first writing endeavor, a children’s book (naturally). My first rejection! As I got older, my mother handed me a Victoria Holt book and I found a role model, but I realized I had a more contemporary voice. Drawing on journalism classes in high school when I worked on the school newspaper, along with college writing courses, I decided it was time to focus my fiction writing. With the influences of Stephen King and Rod Serling, I discovered a supernatural element creeping into my romances, just enough to add suspense without stretching imagination too far. I always find myself wondering about that dream I had last night . . . or did I just imagine hearing someone on a train or seeing something in a painting that everybody else missed? A guest reviewer for the Chicago Daily Herald says of her debut novel, "Much in the same way that Nora Roberts crafts a good story first and allows the love interest to support but not overwhelm the plot, The Treasure Of St. Paul delivers a well told tale that holds suspense until the very end."

C. worked at honing her craft with various original projects, then discovered the world of written erotica and the world as she knew it changed. Even more when she discovered the world of fan fiction erotica, and the discovery that other people were turned on by the same things she was. And that, in turn brought her here.

Besides her Werewolves in Love series, she’s working on a Regency and a big glitzy contemporary that she hopes will evoke comparisons to the sexy melodramas of the 80s (Models! Rock stars! Monaco!

Dark Blonde: A Mike Angel Private Eye Mystery by David H Fears Dark Blonde: A Mike Angel Private Eye Mystery by David H Fears Jan. 08, 2011 $3.99 81554 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.
