Author Bio:
I write several genres, from thrillers to young adult, and enjoy doing it. I find that the hardest thing about being a writer is not writing or coming up with stories and plotlines, but talking about yourself. After all, when you’re famous others will do it for you; but when you’re still striving…what can really be said that hasn’t been said or lived…?

By turns, hilarious, sad and heartwarming, Back Home Blues is a 1950s coming-of-age story about young love, broken dreams and the complexities of coming home.

About A Light in the Darkness

In 2008, singer-songwriter Lisa Sniderman was living the dream in California. As Aoede, the Muse of Song, her star as a gifted recording artist was rising fast. Lisa’s quirky folk-pop performance style electrified audiences up and down the West Coast, and the albums just kept flowing. But just when her career was rocketing skyward, a health crisis brought all of her dreams crashing to the ground. Diagnosed with a rare, debilitating immune disorder called dermatomyositis (DM), Lisa struggled to maintain a normal life with a body in revolt and, eventually, to accept a new normal. Living with a chronic illness challenged Lisa to see DM as a gift in disguise that has opened the door to new dreams, new songs, and new opportunities. Lisa’s story is for you if you seek strength, new inspiration, hope, joy, healing, and if you or someone you love struggle with a chronic illness, disability, or unexpected life events. Her insights and reflections on her journey inspire hope and the courage to keep dreaming and living to the fullest no matter what life hurls at you.

Hello, I’m Dave, a dad of three (and counting) and a husband of one (and not counting ;-). Writing has been a hobby and love of mine since grade school. I find that there’s a freeing aspect to it, where I can create fresh and exhilarating worlds filled with complex characters that soar unfettered. Where do they fly? Well, I’m glad you asked. They fly towards, and into, that realm that spans over the heavens, the one that’s invisible to the natural eye yet while also being woven throughout human affairs. It’s a realm that watches our comings and goings, our thoughts and deeds, one that sees us as we are and who it is that we aim to be. It’s a realm cloaked in both darkness and light, where struggles are experienced and outcomes realized. For the good, for the bad, the story unfolds bringing us down its rapids and over the brink, or along its lazy path that winds through the meadow. Yet each adventure of joy and sorrow is guided by a northern light. It’s a star. And it’s calling out to us, showing us the way…

About Evil’s Unlikely Assassin

Vampire Alexis Black is on a mission – to rejoin the human race.

But how does a vampire become human again?

She signs an iron-clad contract with an angel-with-an-attitude. A contract that requires her to kill one vampire, werewolf, or creepy-crawly every night for fifty years.

The reward for killing without conscience – her humanity. The punishment for refusal – her death.

Too bad the contract didn’t mention the badass vampire who now rides shotgun in her brain. Her new insatiable bloodlust. Or the I-hate-everything-with-fangs human sidekick.

But when a revenge seeking bloodsucker threatens to turn her city into an all-you-can-suck buffet, Alexis has to fang up to ensure there is a humanity to return to.

If you like a bit of sex, snark, and supernatural sizzle with your fangs and fur, then this one is for you.

About I Want To Be Yours

Love demands you surrender all…
Niccolo Darian was a man in conflict. Married for six years to a woman he neither loved nor wanted, and at the same time, friend to a woman he wanted like no other. The tenacious grip he held on his integrity and honor was constantly being tested. Finding his wife in bed with another man should have been painful, but all he could think about was how soon he could claim the woman of his desire.
Mari Quinn knew it was wrong, but she’d been in love with her married boss for years. Accepting that he was beyond her reach, she settled for being his friend and confidant. Respecting his commitment, and certainly admiring it, she was determined not to do anything to compromise his relationship with his wife. But her resolve shattered in one night.
In an effort to console Niccolo, Mari gave him more than a shoulder to lean on. Months later, the consequence of that night irrevocably changed their lives.

The first romance novel I ever read was Cinderella! I devoured Disney’s version of romance until I was eleven, and then I discovered Mills & Boons. In those days kissing was the most explicit intimacy disclosed: the hero and heroine went to bed and came out the next day with smiles! I had no idea what happened, but I was intrigued. My mom had shelves and shelves of them. Over the long summer breaks, I barely left my bedroom! My busy parent had no idea what I was up to. I’ve always been fascinated with love stories. I started writing in college, but I never expected anyone would ever read my whimsical musings. LOL! Now years later, after husband and kids, and a solid career in finance I’ve started publishing those early ideas.
