When I met my wife in 1999, though, her desire for writing stirred my own and neither of us looked back from there. I have been an active participant - and winner! - in National Novel Writing Month for five years running, but never before had I managed to FINISH a work I'd begun. I can't say that again! The Hawk Prince is my first novel, published on Christmas Day, 2012, and with the success of its publication, I am happily writing the three books that follow its storyline.

Shimrit Nothman had perfected the art of Conflict Resolution at a very young age. Her method was: AVOID CONFLICTS AT ALL COST! Later on in life, she decided that other methods may work better, and so she attended Tel Aviv University, where she received her Masters in Conflict Resolution. Shimrit lived in Australia for a few years before returning to her native Israel with her young family. She writes a bi-weekly column in the Jerusalem Post online newspaper, called Family Matters, which focuses on conflict resolution in the family.
