Author Bio:

Oliver is an award-winning playwright and writer of adult, young adult and young readers’ fiction who worked as a hospital doctor in England and Vermont, USA, before ending up in Scotland where he now lives with his Chinese wife. With family and granddaughters in Texas, and in Switzerland, he has always been taken with the Native American belief that Man belongs to the land, and not the other way around—something he addresses in ‘Eyes of Fire’. Although not confined to any particular genre, Oliver feels most comfortable in that space between reality and fantasy; a place where children can lose themselves in their play and the place of myths and legends and of deeply-held beliefs across the world. For him, writing is not just about telling a story but also about trying to better understand this mysterious existence we call ‘life’. A lover of music who met his wife when, as teenagers, they played piano duets together, he is also a passionate and prize-winning amateur photographer. ‘Eyes of Fire’ is featured on Shepherd.com ‘best books’ website for October 2022.

Verge of Darkness by Ollie Odebunmi  

About Verge of Darkness by Ollie Odebunmi

Casca is no hero. He would rather run his tavern, while indulging in his pastime of poring over ancient manuscripts. But a dark shadow hovers over him, for his bloodline has been burdened with the task of protecting the land from the evil of soul eaters dismissed as nothing more than myth by many. Drunken tales told in taverns.

They were wrong. The soul eaters return after the barrier between worlds falls, leaving horrific death and desolation in their wake. Casca must face up to responsibilities he is ill-equipped to bear, as the land teeters on the edge of ruin.

But the threads of fate weave, drawing three mighty warriors into the maelstrom.
Pagan, a wanderer from the furthest corner of the world, seeking redemption for a gruesome act of vengeance committed in his youth. Moon, a one-eyed giant axeman from the frozen north, and Liang, an ice-cold swordswoman from the eastern continent.
With their very souls at stake, and forced to face their deepest darkest fears, the four must battle to save the land from sliding into a new age of darkness.

His other interests were fitness and boxing and he went on to establish a gym business, before writing his first book, The Last Great Heavyweights – From Ali and Frazier to Lewis and Tyson. Satisfied he had the chops as a writer, he took the plunge into fiction, and naturally, it had to be epic/heroic fantasy. He published Verge of Darkness, the first book of the Threads of Fate series in 2017.



Becoming: The Red Nova Chronicles Book One by N. N.Barefield  

About Becoming: The Red Nova Chronicles Book One by N. N.Barefield

Where are you, Sean?

I’m right here, he said slowly. In fact, I’m right in front of you. I’m the dragon, and I don’t want to freak you out… but Sachie, you’re a dragon too.

What?!

Sachie and Sean were sixteen year old twins who’d always led fairly normal lives. Yes, their parents had been mysteriously murdered about a year ago, and they were now living with a man who claimed to be their grandfather, but other than that, they were just your typical high school kids, right? At least that’s what they thought until that fateful night on All Hollow’s Eve when their lives changed forever…

Dragons were real! Their family had kept this secret from them their entire lives, but now the giant, flying lizard was out of the bag… literally. Suddenly, Sachie and Sean find themselves being flung into the past to attend a Dragon School that’s hidden in time, but they’re not alone. Another set of twins will accompany them and help them form a powerful Nexus that is destined to fulfil the prophecy which will restore balance to the world. If this all isn’t crazy enough, Sachie and Sean have to succeed at learning how to become dragons all while being chased by an ancient enemy. Four teenagers saving the world against evil, what could possibly go wrong?

If you loved The Mortal Instruments, Harry Potter or Dragon School, then get your copy today, and join Sachie and Sean as they become dragons and discover who they were always meant to be.

I've always loved reading and spent my free time from four years of age until now with my nose in books. They fascinate me. They say when someone dies a library dies with him. That is so true. Think of the people you have come to admire. What if they had written a book on their lives and others had learned from them?

In addition to writing and studying history, I am a master gardener and I love to cook. I enjoy life with my three cats who don't seem to mind being ignored while I'm at my computer creating something new.

From working as a newspaper editor to researching history for books, I now have turned to writing creative works. It’s like a vacation for my mind.



The Happy Doc Student Handbook: 7 Steps to Graduating with Your Sanity, Health, and Relationships Intact by Dr. Heather Frederick  

About The Happy Doc Student Handbook: 7 Steps to Graduating with Your Sanity, Health, and Relationships Intact by Dr. Heather Frederick

Twenty years of working in doctoral programs left Heather Frederick, Ph.D. (Brandeis University, ’99; podcast host: The Happy Doc Student podcast), disillusioned with what people were not being told during the admissions process and what students were not being taught in the required coursework. Whether you’re “on the fence” about enrolling in a program, in a program and feeling lost, a family member or friend of a doctoral student wanting to know what the heck is going on, or a faculty member seeking insights that will lead to more effective mentorship – this handbook is for you!

Bottomline: When 50% of those who start a doctoral program do not graduate, there is a clear need for additional resources!

In just 7 steps, you’ll learn tools and techniques to help you start strong, stay the course, and finish on time. Each step contains action items so you can apply the information for immediate results.

You’ll learn how to:
• Position yourself for success
• Manage stress and overwhelming emotions
• Use ego-shattering feedback to your advantage
• Build a supportive network so you never feel alone
• Find quality time for school in your already busy life
• Work smarter so you can finish on time
• Choose a topic, complete your dissertation, and shine at your defense

If you’ve ever wondered, Can I really do this? — this handbook is for you.

Author Bio:
A first-generation college student, Heather Frederick holds a Ph.D. from Brandeis University. An expert in doctoral education, she has designed and taught graduate research design and statistics courses, served on over 100 dissertation committees, provided consultation on over 1,000 dissertations as an academic reviewer, and taught both land-based and virtual residencies.

An academic leader with over 60 publications/presentations, a self-imposed sabbatical following the unexpected death of her children’s father changed her life course. In 2015 she returned with a mission: to change the way doctoral education is delivered and experienced. Her podcast (the Happy Doc Student) and book are much-needed guides, helping doctoral students graduate with both a high-quality dissertation and their sanity, health, and relationships intact.

When she’s not helping others discover more joy in their journey, you can find her walking outside barefoot, floating in the ocean, dancing to 80s tunes, or trying to get her teenage daughters to laugh (which is no easy task; they are one tough crowd!).

I started out writing screenplays because I loved the way movies could take you out of your own life for a little while and show you a different world. After my creations sat on a shelf for a few years just collecting dust, I decided to turn a few of them into novels that I could share with the world. Most of my books have a scifi element of some kind, I have my father to thank for that. He introduced me to Star Trek at a very young age and I was hooked.

About The Fated Howl

The Fated Howl is a prequel to the Wolves of Little Creek Series, a paranormal shifter romance story. It will be available for free at the time of this promotion.

Millie

I’ve always lived by strict rules. Never stay out late. Never go past the city line. Never excel at sports.

Never let anyone in on our secret.

You see, I’m not an ordinary girl. I’m also a wolf. I live in Little Creek with my mom and dad. I go to school, and at night I run through the forest, but I never howl. I’m told it’s too dangerous. But what’s the point of having these gifts if I can’t do any good with them?

Then one day, I sensed something. Another wolf.

I feel drawn to Will instantly. What girl wouldn’t be? He’s tall, insanely hot with broad shoulders and soulful hazel brown eyes.

Unlike my parents, Will isn’t afraid to tell me the truth. He teaches me about my culture and my history, and he shows me that there’s far more to this world than I ever believed.

My parents aren’t going to be happy, but they’ve been holding me back.

It’s time for me to howl with freedom.
