This is Banja de Banja – economically successful, aggressively bisexual, her heart smashed to pieces by divorce.

These are chapters from her life – some may make you laugh, some may make you cry, some may make you outraged, and some may make you wonder about the meaning of it all.

Slave Graves by Thomas Hollyday
About Slave Graves by Thomas Hollyday
Dr. Frank Light, archaeologist, is vastly annoyed. He’s settled into a plush life – cushy department-head job at a university, suave girlfriend, book in the works. Now he’s been ordered into the sludgy, back-water marshes of Maryland to fend off hordes of mosquitoes, all because of an inconsequential find at a bridge construction site. Maggie, the outspoken state archaeologist working the dig, insists the shipwreck has historical significance. Pastor Allingham is even more vehement, insisting the decaying timbers hide a rumored, long-lost slave graveyard. Real estate tycoon Jake Terment is furious that his construction project is held up by the growing concerns of Frank and his team. Jake cranks up the pressure for a quick resolution. Others passionately feel the archaeology project should either come to a crashing halt or press full speed ahead. An eclectic group of butterfly fanatics, a mysterious waterman of Mexican heritage, a curvaceous movie star, and even ghosts make their presence known. When several attempts are made on the team members’ lives, Frank draws on lessons from his Vietnam vet past. He has to decide on which side of this battle to stake his claim – and if he is ready to risk his life again for his beliefs. The River Sunday Romance Mystery Series can be read in any order. Part of the proceeds from the sale of Thomas Hollyday fiction and non-fiction goes to support drinking water resources for wildlife.

At the same time his characters face the power of modern technology for good and evil. Each novel, located in the small town of River Sunday, Maryland, records the continuing beautiful nature of the area. His writing portrays today’s problems, conflicts, and memorable local characters with their loves and their combat with evil.

Author Bio:
I was born in the middle of last century (1952) and probably better known for being an Electronics Design Engineer and Electronic Music composer (Syemak) than an author. So I grew up in the ‘Golden Age’ of Sci-Fi when Isaac Asimov was still very active and the stories involved normal people involved with wonders. Sci-Fi would eventually be involved with deeper characterization but would go overboard with every character a candidate for the looney bin and magazines only buying stories that involved gay characters with serious mental issues who became warped heroes.
Rather than stay with the current fashion of dystopian visions, I tried to envision the planetary expanse of mankind as an outgrowth of our current society. Not the headlines, but the typical people you see on the street who are journeying through life without pretensions of grandeur. Although we have had many technological advancements since the 50’s, people have not really changed. They still watch sports, go to the store and drink bottled liquids. Although the clothes might be marginally different from the 50’s, the person inside is still the same with the same needs, wants and opinions. And believe me, marketing will always be there. So will the pretensions like Lara’s exclamation of ‘getting a headache’ when watching 2d movies.
Boy, that was pompous, huh?
And I was supposed to be talking about me. Here I am, still working as a design engineer, having spent 27 years in medical electronics, 10 years in precision measurement and now bearing down on 10 years in designing military equipment. I walk five miles a day, am slightly overweight and am going bald. I’ve worked for companies that Scott Adams has described in the most part, but would still have plenty of material for him for many years.
Now I’m writing something that isn’t test plans or theories of operations. Wow.
The Raven of Iskandar series is sketched out to encompass at least four books. The universe that is described within was imagined long before I ever met Raven, so there is at least one storyline outside of Iskandar that is begging to be done. I snuck a reference to that story in one of the scenes. Maybe you’ll notice it.
My editor, Yvonne Marrs, is a unique and heroic character in her own right, but it was her expertise and constant encouragement that is truly prized. When I mentioned I was writing this story for myself, she asked to see it. After I sent her what you read as chapter 1, she asked for more. After every section was the same request for more. If you get that from your editor, that’s a good thing.
In conclusion, I plan to live to 120. While I might not live longer than Jack Vance, I hope to be writing longer.
God Bless.
P.S. – Oh, you wanted to know more about the Electronic Music? Just dart on over to Soundcloud and search for Syemak. There are two pieces that relate to the book: Call from Central and Raven’s Walk.

Author Bio:
Luisa Marietta Gold was born in Pennsylvania where she spent a large part of her adult life. She moved to North Carolina after the birth of her only daughter. She published her debut novel, Escape to Osprey Cove, which is Book 1 of The Osprey Cove Lodge series in September 2016. The Osprey Cove Series was born from Luisa’s love of the Rideau Lake region of Canada, the outdoors, and lake life. She spent many years enjoying the Rideau region while staying in lodges reminiscent of the lodge in her first novel. She currently resides on eleven acres in her North Carolina home near an idyllic lake with her husband and several mixed labs. She spends as much time as possible enjoying the beauty of the lake. Luisa also does acrylic painting. The cover of her debut book which features The Lady Droxell on a Canadian lake was painted by her. It was very satisfying to Luisa to know that she created the entire project. There is a tea room not far from her home where one selects a hat to wear while dining as did Libby and Rosalind in the book. And sometimes they are silly. Luisa’s bio picture was taken there.

Author Bio:
Kimberly Diede’s first novel, Whispering Pines, was inspired by her real-life “Aunt Celia,” Mary K. Nierling. Mary was a generous, extraordinary, slightly formidable woman who excelled in a “man’s world” in the mid-1900s. The Celia’s Gifts series is Kimberly’s way of honoring her great-aunt and the legacy she left behind. She is currently at work on future novels in the series.
Kimberly lives in North Dakota with her family, spending as much time as she can at their lake cabin. There’s nothing like a writing session on the dock in the early morning or an evening spent around a roaring campfire with friends for fostering new story ideas.
IT Strategy
Kirkus Reviews writes “Maholic’s contribution is a standout in a crowded field and should become the authoritative source on the subject. A consistently clear and notably thorough guide to IT strategy that should be on every chief information officer’s desk.”

Murder Is A Debate by Brandy Nacole
About Murder Is A Debate by Brandy Nacole
Nora and her two best friends, Liv and Charlie, aren’t like most people. Nora is the private school kid; the rich girl, though everyone hates her. Liv and Charlie attend the run-down public school on the opposite side of town where the football team is a solid two and the art department was shut down due to funding. Their worlds should have never collided, but they had one common factor that brought them together, murder.
In an online mystery chat room, the three girls meet and decide to form The Murder Club. Each week one of the girls must come up with a murder scenario for the other two to solve. It’s fun. It’s active. It’s also deadly.
When one of Nora’s classmates ends up dead, she’s suspicious of her new friends. His death mirrors the very same scenario Nora came up with in their previous meeting. As clues emerge, pointing more definitively at the members of the Murder Club, Nora begins digging for her own clues, bringing fantasy to reality. Could Liv and Charlie be involved, and if so why?
They were all curious. Was one of them too curious?

Akropolis
Akropolis is a city at the end of times, a sanctuary where the brightest and best have been housed since the last Great War. A genome defect has afflicted the majority of the population and scientists are desperate to find a cure. In the meantime, humanity has found temporary salvation in the form of the QUBIT (quantum processing bio-synthetic), an android that is capable of prolonging life almost indefinitely, yet many fear what makes them human in the first place has been lost in the transition. The ruling council believes that salvation is nigh, but whether that hope arrives in time is questionable. The city’s future depends upon the actions of a few individuals, all of whom are struggling with their own mortality. Quentin is the boy who dreams of death. Mia is the tortured soul. Trey is the soldier that defines duty. Misao is the future of the ruling council. Claire is the girl with a secret that will rock the foundations of their entire civilization. Unbeknownst to them, the entire fate of Akropolis lies in their hands. Either humanity will find a way to survive or it will sink into the sea of extinction.
