  1. A SEALED FATE - 2013-05-02 02:32:02-04
    An only child to a single Mum, Lisa was born and brought up in Johannesburg, South Africa. Despite a lifelong ambition to act, she enrolled at the University of the Witwatersrand to do a BCom Law. She later moved to UK, where she achieved a BSc Industrial Economics Hons Degree from Warwick. Still wanting to be a star - her Mum encouraged her to study 'The Stars' and Lisa became an Astrologer. Lisa worked on hospital radio for many year, before becomming a regular Astrology guest on BBC local radio. As an Astrologer Lisa was always asked by her clients to make black and white definitive predictions about their futures: this made Lisa ponder the role of fate in our lives and how much freewill we really had. Hence the plot for her philosophical thriller, 'A Sealed Fate' was born. Choice versus chance - which prevails? Lisa wrote her book while also writing the ACA Chartered Accountants exams. She hopes to become a successful writer, not an accountant! Lisa is grateful to the wonderful support of both strangers and friends and their inspiration. Lisa is also grateful for having a 'power-house' Mum; who is her biggest supporter and best buddie.
  2. Life’s What Happens - 2013-05-02 02:58:53-04
    Kathy Clark has had 23 romance / women’s fiction novels published by several publishers, including Harlequin and Dell which have sold more than 3 million copies globally in at least 11 different languages. Her books have appeared on the New York Times and USA Today Best Seller lists and she has received numerous industry awards including Romantic Times Readers’ Choice Awards. In 2013 two of her books won first place in The Best Indie Books of the year for Young adult and suspense. After spending several years writing screenplays she has returned to writing novels and has branched out into suspense, mainstream and young adult genres. She has enjoyed co-writing these latest books with her husband Bob Wernly under the pen name of Bob Kat. Kathy’s latest and 24th book published was After Midnight, a suspense set in Denver and is the first of a trilogy called Denver After Dark. It has been well received and reviewers, across the board, have rated it 4 and 5 stars. The trailer for that book can be found from my website at www.nightwriter93.com or directly on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxSkqqaD-2Q Bob Kat became active in 2012 with two projects published. First was the mainstream novel, Life’s What Happens, a fictionalized treatment of the 1969 to early 1970 anti-war movement as it played out at Kent State University. Bob Wernly was there, and the characters and thoughtful telling of the story was a fascinating insight into the era. The reviews have been amazing. The direct link to the YouTube trailer can be found at the following http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQBnqNNNHUE&feature=plcp But after several years of contemplating where to take their newly launched co-writing career, they concluded there was a mutual and burning passion to spend their time writing for young adults. The passion stems from the many real-life stories of teen suicide, bullying, runaways, abuse and drugs. Add to that, the caustic nature of the television and film content that most certainly weighs on this age group’s ability to maintain a positive healthy outlook as they mature into their twenties. The CUL8R time travel action adventure series was inaugurated in December, 2012. There are many unique features of this series, and the positive message it will send to its readers will be awesome! That’s right, awesome! Really. Actually, it will be epic! The series website is www.cuul8rseries.com Book #1, OMG was published in eBook and paperback in time for Christmas. And no zombies or vampires were killed in the making of the series!
  3. The Price of Hannah Blake - 2013-05-03 02:07:48-04
    I'm an author living in East Hampton, Long Island, who spends at least as much time writing (and reading!) as I do on our glorious beaches or in our art galleries, shops, and restaurants. (Lots more than in our shops! But I like to take my wife, Robin.) My lifelong love has been stories with gripping plots driven by logic, heroes and heroines driven by impassioned values and desires, and places and action and dialogue that carry me away to "the homeland of my soul." Nothing brings these together like a battle for justice, a struggle for love and the fulfillment of sexual passion, the obsessive need to understand a mystery, a problem, a threat. My first novel, "The Price of Hannah Blake," will be followed soon by more novels, a second book of poetry, and a collection of essays and stories. I grew up on a farm in Massachusetts, but I've spent my career in New York City as a writer, publishing more than 100 articles, essays, and stories and helping foundations, museums, hospitals, schools, conservation organizations, and all sorts of other good causes with my writing talents. With this experience, and my long love affair with poetry (you can find my book, "Touched By Its Rays" on Amazon), I think you will find I am a stylist whose writing will be a pleasure to read--and will take you into places, characters, and the heart of action in a way that will make the pages fly by. I have been writing a LOT before publishing "Hannah Blake," just because I love to write, and in fairly short order please look for my next novels: "The Lailly Worm," "O Human Child," and "Sure Fire." Also, a book of short stories and another book of poetry! We have a long trip to make together. I want to hear from you. Every author does, unless so "celebrated" that he or she has gone into hiding. If you have another minute, I can explain something. Authors on Amazon NEED readers because reader reviews and ratings are the gold standard for other readers, because sales move a book up in prominence on the Amazon site, and because authors need the insights only readers can provide. (Not to leave out that it's such a great feeling to get a message from a reader who understands your work and loves the world you have created in a book!) So if you like my books, express yourself. And write to me anytime, and often, at WDonway@Gmail.com or my book imprint: RomanticRevolutionBooks.com. I'm on Facebook, too--the only Walter Donway there, I think. Keep reading: To experience the world "as it might and ought to be" is the emotional fuel that keeps us all going, willing to fight for our values, willing to keep seeking our happiness in life.
