The GingerBread House by James Richard  

22f0_f05cAbout The GingerBread House by James Richard:

Set in a small town during the 1900’s, The Gingerbread House is a Romance/Mystery grounded in nostalgia, mirth, and true love. When a journalist comes home from Europe to take over the town newspaper from his sister, he becomes infatuated with the local people and their stories. From an orphaned young girl to a threatening politician to a mysterious and beautiful woman, each individual has a tale to tell in this anthology of brief yet captivating fictional vignettes, each of which rings all too familiar. The Gingerbread House is very much like gingerbread itself – just as tasty whether one delves into it a bit at a time or all at once.

Author Bio:
James Richard is the pen name that I write under. I was born and still live in rural North Dakota, where hard work, moral principles, loyal friends and neighbors, and religion, are still a strong part of everyday life.

What makes you proud to be a writer from North Dakota? I wouldn’t say that I’m proud or fixated on being a writer from North Dakota. I am proud to be a writer, like so many other writers in the world community.

What or who inspired you to become a writer? I was inspired by the author F. Scott Fitzgerald and by reading the novel “The Great Gatsby.” Also by the author Jack London and his many tales of the Alaskan Klondike. Both were very creative writers.

Did your environment or upbringing play a major role in your writing and did you use it to your advantage? I think in retrospect, the fact that I was a reflective, introspective dreamer as a youth, played a large part in my desire to be a writer.

When did you begin writing with the intention of becoming published? I started writing when I was about twenty-four years old. Over the years, I wrote three novels. The first two I burned and destroyed in moments of frustration. I regret that indiscretion to this day, since I no longer have any media of those works and I don’t have any hope of recovering them.

What has been your most rewarding experience with your writing process? Breathing life into the characters, and watching them take on a life of their own. It’s amazing when the characters do things, or say things that surprise even myself as the author.

What has been your most rewarding experience in your publishing journey? Seeing one of my novels in paperback.

Do you come up with your title(s) before or after you write the manuscript? With my only published novel, I recall coming up with the title “Portrait of Penny Lee Hall.” It suited one of the main characters of the novel. That was about midway through the work, but I later changed that to “The GingerBread House.” It was just a matter of preference at the time.

Please introduce your genre and why you prefer to write in that genre? I enjoy writing fiction and historical romances because it gives me a great deal of latitude, allows my imagination to run wild, and I enjoy delving into history. There really is no other choice for me, as I do not see many things romantic or redeeming about the present world we live in. I always thought that I was born fifty or one hundred years too late.

What was your inspiration, spark or light bulb moment that inspired you to write the book (one book) that you are seeking promotion for? It was born out of my intense desire at the time to be a creative writer. Yes, like so many others, I dreamed of writing the Great American Novel.
What one positive piece of advice would you give to other authors? Believe in yourself, even when everyone else doesn’t.

Who is your favorite author and why? F. Scott Fitzgerald, Jack London



Justice for Jessica by Alretha Thomas  

J4J-Front-5About Justice for Jessica by Alretha Thomas

Mousey, overweight Stacey Sullivan would love to trade places with her glamorous socialite BFF, Jessica James—that’s until she discovers Jessica murdered in her own home. Whip-smart detective Rachel Storme is ready to exchange her gun and badge for a gardener’s hat and hoe. But she reluctantly puts her plans on hold when she’s asked to help solve Jessica’s murder. These two strangers from different generations—Stacey a millennial and Rachel a baby boomer—become unlikely friends in their pursuit of JUSTICE FOR JESSICA. But their friendship is put to the test when Stacey insists that her husband, Matt, is innocent in spite of evidence that speaks to the contrary. Rachel, baffled by Stacey’s blind loyalty to Matt, doggedly fights to take Matt down, but with Stacey’s help, he eludes her at every turn. Is Matt the killer or could Grant, Jessica’s husband, be the culprit? Perhaps it was her jealous sister, Georgette or the maid, Rosa? No matter who the killer is, Rachel, by any means necessary, is determined to find her man or woman.

Author Bio:
An award winning author, playwright, director, and producer, Alretha Thomas’s background is as diverse as her personality. She started at the age of ten, when her 5th grade teacher picked and read her short story assignment in front of the class–that simple, loving act empowered a new writer. Continuing in high school, her numerous original oratorical conquests on the Speech Team led her to a journalism concentration at USC.

Upon graduating, Alretha soon realized that her interest in journalism was not heartfelt. While at the taping of a live sitcom, the producer noticed her and encouraged her hand at modeling. Modeling didn’t mean much to her, but it did lead her to acting and a NAACP Theatre Award Nomination (1993) for BEST ACTRESS. Alretha left acting and began to write full time. Her church gave her an outlet to fulfill her writing desires through their Liturgical Fine Arts Department wherein Alretha penned twelve theatre pieces, six of which she directed–the community response was overwhelming.

This led to full length plays outside of the church. In 2002, The Stella Adler Theater presented A Shrine to Junior. The play was nominated for an NAACP Theatre Award and in 2004, Alretha’s play, Civil Rites, was the recipient of an NAACP Theatre Award. Her play Grandpa’s Truth ran at the Inglewood Playhouse in Inglewood, California in 2006, and was extended more than once by popular demand. Not only did radio station KJLH support by recommending this production to its listeners, but notables like the Mayor of Inglewood, Roosevelt Dorn, and music legends like Freda Payne and Stevie Wonder had critical acclaim for Grandpa’s Truth. This wonderful piece was featured on Channel 5 (KTLA News) by Entertainment Reporter, Sam Rubin. Additionally, in 2007, Alretha’s play that she wrote and directed, Sacrificing Simone, had a successful run at Stage 52 in Los Angeles and was called “an inspirational crowd pleaser” by the Los Angeles Times and in 2009, Alretha’s ground breaking One, Woman Two Lives, starring Kellita Smith (The Bernie Mac Show), directed by four-time NAACP Image Award Best Director recipient Denise Dowse, garnered rave reviews from critics and audiences.

In between plays, Alretha’s first novel Daughter Denied was launched in 2008 and has received glowing reviews from readers and book clubs across the country. Representing her books, Alretha has been the guest on many radio shows and television shows including San Francisco Public Affairs show Bay Sunday with Barbara Rodgers on KTLA Channel 5. In 2011, Alretha launched her second novel, Dancing Her Dreams Away, and it was also well received. Her third novel, Married in the Nick of Nine, spawned a four-book series that was acquired by Soul Mate Publishing in January 2014. Alretha’s award winning third indie novel, Four Ladies Only, was released February 2014. Alretha’s first mystery novel, Missing Melissa, was released in 2015. Justice for Jessica is the first book in her new Detective Rachel Storme, series.

The Shale Gas Revolution  

shale-gas-revolutionAbout The Shale Gas Revolution:

Natural gas is rapidly becoming the fuel of choice for global power producers, as societies demand lower amounts of pollution, and reduced carbon emissions. Natural gas is replacing coal in power generation, because it is a cleaner fuel, is inexpensive, and abundant. Technology innovations such as horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, or more commonly known as fracking, have unlocked astronomical quantities of natural gas, in the United States. In recent years, The Shale Gas Revolution, has been a contributor to rising U.S. employment, and is continuing to lower input costs for chemical companies and other manufacturing businesses. Fracking is a controversial issue, but can be executed safely, providing that the operators utilize best practices, and abide by environmental regulations. Since 2008, due to The Shale Gas Revolution, natural gas production has increased by more than 30 percent, in the U.S., which has driven down natural gas prices, and lowered energy costs for businesses and consumers.

Some of the major topics in The Shale Gas Revolution, include:

The major shale regions in the U.S.
The manufacturing boom due to low natural gas prices
Potential environmental concerns from fracking
Factors impacting natural gas prices

Mystical Aria: Seeking the Gallion Queen by Jean Neff Guthrie  

cover-with-badge-DeniseAbout Mystical Aria: Seeking the Gallion Queen by Jean Neff Guthrie:

Special: eBook only 99 cents through April 11, 2016
Aria Vanir, psychic tween from Virginia Beach, trusts only her mother with the knowledge of her predictions and remote viewings. When Aria connects with technically and spiritually advanced aliens—the Gallions—she instead confides in her best friend, Tommy Manger. His unexpected anger threatens to end their friendship.

Nashata, Queen Supreme of the Gallions, leads a diplomatic mission with her royal family to Earth so she can make peaceful contact with Aria. The queen trusts only this intuitive “youngirl” with the secrets of her people.

When the Gallions beam Aria, Tommy, and Aria’s tomboyish 15-year-old sister, Jackie, aboard their spaceship, Aria’s typically passive mother makes a daring move to save her daughters. None of them realize that the Navy has sent Aria’s SEAL father, William, on a mission to capture the good aliens or destroy their spaceship. Worse, William has no idea that he’s putting his daughters and their friend in harm’s way.

Can Aria succeed in her quest to meet the alien queen in person, despite the fears and doubts of those closest to her?

According to branding specialist, David Thalberg, “Many compare Guthrie’s novel to the endearing kid-meets-alien theme in Steven Spielberg’s E.T.”

With a serial killer on their hands they must act fast to trace a woman placed at the scene of the crime. Yet discovering her true identity, let alone finding her, proves difficult. And as the plot thickens they realise the crime is far graver than either of them could have imagined.

If you like crime fiction with a killer twist you will love SHE, the latest suspense thriller by Pete Brassett.
