Murder, She Vaped: The Ironic T-Shirt Caper by Gregg Maxwell Parker
About Murder, She Vaped: The Ironic T-Shirt Caper by Gregg Maxwell Parker
Introducing a new mystery series full of laughs and intrigue! “The Ironic T-Shirt Caper” is a postmodern mystery featuring two young female detectives. Imagine if Holmes and Watson were hipsters living on the east side of Los Angeles, or if Philip Marlowe had a lot of opinions about pop culture. Fans of “Deadpool” and “The Nice Guys” will love this fresh take on the genre.
MURDER, SHE VAPED is a new series featuring Silver Lake barista Judy Scoffs, the coolest girl in Los Angeles who has a sixth sense for when something’s not right or when someone’s being sexist online. Even though she’s super indie and fun, somehow death and crime follow her wherever she goes. Along with her sidekick/roommate Doll, Judy is unafraid to tackle even the most baffling mysteries.
In THE IRONIC T-SHIRT CAPER, a crime wave has hit Echo Park, as nostalgic shirts purchased from a local vintage shop vanish overnight from customers’ closets, replaced by ones with current references a grown adult might enjoy, like “True Crime Podcasts” and “In-Unit Washer/Dryer.” Judy and Doll dive into a world of shady clothing magnates, outlandish performance artists, and cynical bloggers to get to the bottom of this supernatural frenzy before everyone in town has to start defining themselves through something other than their clothing.

Aaden BlueStar Awakening by David Gaughan
About Aaden BlueStar Awakening by David Gaughan
A blend of Harry Potter vs Star Wars, except the wizard in this tale is a boy who thinks he`s a normal teen until a lightning strike awakens memories that he`s an extraterrestrial born here for a special mission – and his senator father is also not of this world.
Growing up somewhat reserved and feeling unwanted, his life suddenly changes one day when he is confronted by a sinister entity that seems strangely familiar. Walking in the park that day with his best friend Fleur and his sister Tiffany, who are more like his spiritual protectors, Aaden’s superpowers are awakened when the entity Belial tries to destroy him with a lightning strike.
With past life memories suddenly expanding his awareness, he discovers his connection with other worldly beings and his senator father and their role in confronting their arch enemy. Their success in their mission not only determines the future of our world, but also the lives of all humanity.

I began a twenty-year career in the beauty industry including teaching at my alma mater and then working for the state cosmetology licensing agency.
I always had a vivid imagination and dreamed of writing and publishing my own stories. Now, that I’ve hit fifty, my dream has been realized because of the love and support of my retired coal miner husband.
I live in rural Boone County, West Virginia, with my fabulous husband, one cat, one chunky dog, and six pet chickens. When I’m not writing, I’m helping my husband preserve the goodies from our garden, walking my dog, or gathering eggs.

The Measurements of Decay
About The Measurements of Decay
Winner of the 2018 NYC Big Book Award’s Distinguished Favorite in Science Fiction
In the far future, Earth’s nearby star systems have been colonized. Outfitted with a device that allows them to escape into hallucinations at will, people spend most of their time withdrawn into their own minds. Tikan Solstafir, a renegade who refuses the illusory life enjoyed by others, lives in self-imposed exile on a starship. When a mysterious enemy attacks the ship, Tikan embarks on a mission to destroy the galactic tyranny and liberate humanity from its own dreams.
Meanwhile, in the 21st Century, a disillusioned philosopher believes that humanity’s collective misery originates in people’s failure to communicate with others and make sense of the world. Growing increasingly misanthropic and monomaniacal, he proceeds on a hermetic quest to save humanity from itself, while also succumbing to his own moral decline.
As these stories intertwine, a young girl reappears through various epochs, fleeting through Ancient Greece, Medieval Norway, Bolshevik Russia, among others. Unbound by time, Sielle has formed few attachments. Eventually thrust into Tikan’s world, she becomes unwillingly entangled in a political scheme spanning centuries.
An engrossing and multi-layered science fiction epic, The Measurements of Decay is K. K. Edin’s stunning debut. At once a tortured love letter to philosophy and a space opera spanning centuries, it is a novel of ideas wrapped in a cautionary tale.

Wendy Gamble’s writing bring together years of science studies, work in heath care, and training and assistant teaching as a black belt in karate. Previously she had articles on art and science fiction published in print and on-line magazines. Wendy has also sold fantasy art and approved paintings and products related to the Canadian Musical Ride. Wendy lives in New Brunswick, Canada, where she runs a writing group, is a literacy volunteer at school, and enjoys gardening, creative cooking, yoga, photography, kicking back to good movies and shows, and, of course, her family.
Wendy’s Q&A on her novel Earth and Beyond: MedSci Missoins 1:
Q: Who is MedSci Missions aimed at?
A: It wasn’t aimed at anyone, it’s a live missile that will land where it will. There are a lot of big words, but no graphic violence or explicit sexual content. In a nutshell, I’d rate it PG, especially good for adults and teens who enjoy a bit of technobabble and brain work or who don’t mind skimming over it to get to the story .
Q: Earth and Beyond is called #1; is the novel a cliff-hanger?
A: No, the immediate conflicts and dangers in the novel are resolved. There is a long-term goal to cure Earth’s pandemic, and some mysteries and character threads that go on for a long time, but each novel or story will have a sense of completion.
Q: Why are there pictures in the book? Don’t pictures in a book mean it’s for a young audience?
A: Basically, I love the pictures and I had them available because this property was conceived of as a film project. So, I added them into the novel as a bonus, expecting lovers of space exploration shows and comics to appreciate them. Formatting them for the eBook was a headache, so I hope I’m correct.
Q: If this was supposed to be in film format, why is it a novel?
A: It still might be a film project. When the company shopping the existing script went down, I put a film version on hold and got back to novel writing. It seemed the most expedient way of getting the material that was developed over a decade out there. Plus, I love novel-writing format. Now that additions and changes have been made for the novel, the script needs to be revamped before decisions can be made about what to do with it.
Q: If you love novel writing why did you make a film/tv script?
A: I was happily working on a bio-tech spy thriller novel when I got up-in-arms over the pending cancellation of Star Trek: Enterprise. I joined “Save Enterprise,” and that led me to peruse the forum of “Sci-Fi Studios.com” I put out an idea stemming from my passion for both medical thrillers such as those by Dr. Robin Cook, and space dramas, hoping someone would make the scenario and character profiles I posted into a show. People seemed to expect me to develop and write the idea, so I did, with happy input from inventive Trek fans.
Q: So is this a Star Trek clone?
A: No. While I have a passion for that universe and others, I wanted to do something different. There is an obvious similarity; a spaceship having a mission beyond Earth. From there, things diverge. Trek ships explore all over space, for many different reasons. The Medship Chiron will spend a lot of time near one particular planet, and we will get to know the inhabitants of it very well as the long-term plot progresses. The atmosphere on-board is different. The Captain is in charge of the crew, but not the mission specialists. The Ambassador in charge of the mission scoured the Earth for the top civilian scientist to carry it out. The geniuses who can solve the problem must be protected at all cost and their work facilitated. The motive for making alien contact isn’t so noble as in ST, the questions asked are more along the lines of, “Could these people help us with our problem?”
Q: Did you submit the manuscript to traditional publishers?
A: No, for multiple reasons. Research I did indicated self-publishing is the way of the future, and MedMissions is all about being in the future. By maintaining ownership and control I can involve talent in further developments as seems appropriate. Also, signing with an outside publisher could be a legal headache given that people from around the world read bits of future plots or contributed ideas before development was closed to the general public.
Q: Have you written other novels?
A: I have a two-hundred-thousand-word fantasy novel on my hard drive, written before my children, who are off at U now, arrived. I don’t think I even sent it out. It’s a bother sending things out, so I started a thriller instead. Now I’m more mature, and will re-visit and publish it. I also have a short, unpublished Star Trek novel I learned the craft from, with help from the Ottawa Lyngarde writing group. Parts of it are being converted into the next MedMissions book, though of course I have to excise a lot of material very specific to the ST characters and setting.
Q: How much is written for MedMissions?
A: The first Novel, Earth and Beyond: MedSci Missions 1 is available for purchase now. A ten- thousand-word glossary of terms can be read for free on the main website, and probably other places before too long. A Ship Guide and Medical Compendium are written but I’d like to get them illustrated before the official release. There’s a script for a six-page promo comic, as well as a twenty-two page one, MedMissions: Vol.1 Metasapian Menace; Issue One: The Science of Subterfuge, that will hopefully one day kick off a comic series. Again, Illustrations are needed. Novel two is in progress, following the plot line worked out for the equivalent of four seasons of a TV show.
Q: Are you trying to be the new Gene Roddenberry?
A: Oh, gosh, no. He was one of a kind, the icon of outer space. I’m ever thankful for the excitement he brought to me that led to my own adventures.
Q: What are the future plans for MedSci Missions?
A: To go further into the future with it. The stories will continue. Certainly in novel format, and hopefully in others. I’m open to the idea of having short story anthologies with multiple authors in the future. I’d love to see what other people came up with in the MedMissions universe.
Magic Required
IN THE YEAR 2047, Lochlan takes the bus to his soul-sucking job answering phones to remain unnoticed. Life is easier that way. Little attachment. Few friends. That means less people caught in the crossfire when he loses control again. The last time he came close to losing it was when he was around Zemila. That was five years ago, just before he disappeared. That was why he disappeared.
He’s good at that. Disappearing. Resettling. Being overlooked.
That is, until the visions started.
Prophetic visions. That’s when he knew the Old World had found him.
These weren’t the fun kind of visions… if there were such a thing. They were the watch-people-die kind, the try-to-stop-it-before-it-happened kind, the maybe-save-some-lives kind.
He thought the visions were his redemption. A redemption he didn’t believe he deserved. When one of them led him to Zemila, he thought it meant he wasn’t a danger to her anymore. That he wasn’t a danger to anyone anymore.
Power attracts enemies. Lochlan thought he’d learned this lesson.
He was wrong. Wrong about the visions. Wrong about everything. And it was going to cost him.
Him and everyone he loved.

After The Days Of Infamy by A.G. Kimbrough
About After The Days Of Infamy by A.G. Kimbrough
December 7, 1941
Captain Minoru Genda smiled as the last plane landed on the Kaga. Both attacks had succeeded beyond his wildest expectations, and the second wave, had not lost a single plane. The losses on the initial attack were much less than projected.
As the four carriers started turning, he saw the smoke rising over the burning ships and oil storage tanks. Even from 50 miles away, and at an 8,000 foot altitude, he could see that the smoke column height was way above his vantage point on the carrier bridge.
After a stop a 1000 miles West of Portland Oregon for their support ships, to resupply fuel, armaments, and replacement planes, the carrier airship fleet will bring destruction to the American West Coast before the end of the week.
This book departs from reality with the 1932 discovery of helium on the island of Hokido. A secret agreement between Japan and Germany results in a technology exchange that enables Japan to develop a fleet of huge airship aircraft carriers.
The two attacks on December Seventh are made by over 300 planes from a fleet of four airship carriers. By the end of that week, a series of devastating strikes up and down the West Coast leave the aircraft, shipbuilding, and marine industries in ruins.
This story does not include steam punk, fantasy, time travel, magic, elves or faeries. It does include some adult content, as well as fictional actions by the USS Fletcher and the USS Iowa. The deviations from historic technologies are based on what could have been accomplished with the availability of helium and a push in that direction

Avenue of Regrets
What would you do if you discovered that the tragic deaths of your family seven years ago were not as they had seemed. How far will you go to uncover the truth?
The brand new mystery-suspense thriller hailed by Publishers Weekly as, “An Engrossing novel of Domestic Suspense. A fast-paced tale of murder Worthy of Hitchcock.”
There are defining moments in people’s lives; times forever etched in our minds. For David Wallace there was no worse time than receiving the news of the deaths of his wife and infant son while confined to a jail cell on false murder charges.
“A hard-hitting examination of regrets, atonement, and acknowledging sins committed and those imagined.” –Midwest Book Reviews
Seven years later, David is the director of a shelter for battered women, and he thinks his dark days are behind him. But he is still haunted by the indiscretion which changed his world forever. Then he meets a strangely familiar woman at a bar who tells him that everything that happened seven years ago was not as it had seemed.
“A Superb Psychological Thriller.” –Douglas Preston
“Rife with Suspense.” –Kirkus Reviews
This revelation throws David into a world of corruption, violence, and human trafficking that he never knew existed. Targeted by the detective who tried to put him away seven years ago and relying on the rock solid relationships with his attorney and staff, David vows to find out what truly happened.
“Greed, violence, and the hope of redemption are the defining themes of Avenue of Regrets, a non-stop action thriller.” –Foreword Reviews
But there are dark forces at play, demanding a reckoning. Besieged by past demons, David discovers crimes so heinous, and so far reaching, they threaten to propel him down another Avenue of Regrets.
“A riveting crime thriller. Packed with mind-blowing twists and turns.” –Cheryl Kay Tardiff
