About Existences and Vineyards
Existences and Vineyards is an anthology of existential poems that seek to draw meaning from the intricacies of human endeavor, as well as the minutiae – those seemingly insignificant occurrences that the average human is wont to be oblivious of. The poems tell tales of conquest and defeats, ambivalence and decisiveness, self-discovery and self-destruction, love and hate, and all those events, actions, thoughts, and feelings that crystallize our realities, not disregarding the natural tendency of many to be unaware or indifferent to their roles as sojourners on Earth. In writing the poems, the author sought to embark on a voyage of discovery, unearthing the motives for human behavior, analyzing their consequences, proferring solutions to the decadence bedeviling the world, attaining enlightenment and truth and that measure of understanding reached only by those who earnestly look for answers. Let each line of poetry be a source of strength and inspiration to you, and as you find what you seek, you become a part of the emotional, mental and spiritual revolution permeating the world.

Taking Her Vikings
About Taking Her Vikings
There were three men in my mind. One in the past, two in the present. How was a girl supposed to think like that?
Lainie never expected to be admitted to the prestigious Time Travel Academy.
She never expected to study runes, ancient languages and meet real life Vikings.
And she certainly didn’t expect to fall for her teacher… and a Viking… and a mysterious archivist.
When a forbidden jump in time goes wrong, Lainie will have to draw on everything she’s learned to make her way back into the present – and into the arms of her men.
Discounted for a limited time 10 – 13th October 2020

The Dawn Of Unions by JP Corwyn
About The Dawn Of Unions by JP Corwyn
Every avalanche begins with a single small stone.
At sunset on their first day in Westsong; the local Forester witnesses a crow fall. It drops like a stone, and for no apparent reason. He and his boy move to investigate. They are the first to go missing.
Before long, both highborn and lowly begin to meet the same fate.
Nerves begin to fray. Courage and faith begin to unravel, and the truth starts to unfold. An ancient horror moves to isolate Westsong and raze it to the ground.
Against all advice, stand or fall; the Countess decides that she, her personal armsmen, and the remaining fighting men of her escort will stay to help defend the little lives of the ordinary folk that call Westsong home.
Then again; there are no such things as little lives, are there? Nobody is ever really as simple as they seem. Nobody is just “the farmer,” or “the forester,” are they?
Smiths, Grooms, Soldiers, and Squires must survive desertion, despair, and death if they are to save themselves, let alone anyone else.
In Thorion County, there’s only ever really one constant.
“When the Falx finally comes for you; no one can help you. The best you can hope for is to make your life, make your death mean something.”

What do you see when you close your eyes? Does your mind conjure more than just images? For JP Corwyn, that sense of the click-click-clicking of the world goes far beyond just the visual. Legally blind from birth, Corwyn has made a career out of connecting the words and worlds in his head with the hearts and minds of those around him.
A born performer, he sang before he spoke and declared his intention to pursue music at the ripe old age of five. He began writing stories and songs in high school. By the time he’d graduated, he was ready to hit the studio and started touring. JP Corwyn has graced stages from Florida to New York, west to Mississippi, and abroad, oversees.
But Corwyn’s harbored a dark, secret obsession throughout his musical career. He’s spent years building fantasy worlds – entire universes for later use in his other driving force – writing fiction.
“For me, it’s more like archeology than creation,” Corwyn says. After spending 20+ years unearthing the cultures, languages, histories – all the things that bring a world and its people to life – it was time to embark on his epic fantasy series The Cycle of Bones. Corwyn’s released the first book in the series – a novella entitled The Dawn of Unions. The second book and a series soundtrack are slated for release in mid-2020.
When he’s not writing prose, you can usually find Corwyn on stage or in the studio. He’s always working on something new, but you might catch him at a coffee shop, a game store, or even a medieval fair.

Undefined: More than the sum of my losses: A Birth Mom’s Journey from Tragedy to Triumph
About Undefined: More than the sum of my losses: A Birth Mom’s Journey from Tragedy to Triumph
SHORT (1 PARAGRAPH)
Growing up in a healthy Christian family, life was generally very good. However, at the age of 16, I became the victim of a violent sexual assault. That night, I also became a mother.
My life, as I knew it, would never again be the same. The shame and guilt gripped every part of me, paralyzing me from being able to share the details, the whole story of the trauma. Those nine months seemed, simultaneously, to last a lifetime and be far too short.
I agonized over my decision to give my baby up for adoption, but my love for her was so great, I needed to give her the life she deserved. In the years that followed, I never abandoned my relationship with God, but I certainly found myself in and out of new and unimaginable pain. I needed God’s complete healing and I needed to learn how to trust both God and man again.
He healed me so deeply that the impact of the rape could not define me. Although man let me down, God rewarded my faith with healing and a new joy, deeper than anything I could have ever imagined. This is a story of hope in overwhelming tragedy and turning that tragedy into triumph.

Dark Little Women Girl Power by R. L. Wood
About Dark Little Women Girl Power by R. L. Wood
This supernatural-horror mash-up is a reinvention of classic horror story characters who have been predominantly male in the past and now presents women as the main characters.
Featuring Dorian Gray as housemother and Doctor Jekyll as the in house physician to a group of blood-thirsty young women in need of rehab. The goal? To conquer their innate urges and be free of their curse so they can live out the rest of their lives as mortals. Strong female characters include vampires, werewolves, ghosts and more. It contains some romance and a touch of humor, and it’s a wicked, fast paced-read everyone will enjoy.
In a previous life, Dorian made a deal with the devil to become immortal. The Dark one attached her life to a portrait of herself painted centuries ago. As long as the portrait exists so does Dorian. One day, after a lot of evil deeds and a feeling of emptiness, she decides to become mortal again, so she strikes a new deal with the Dark One.
Now, Dorian must rehabilitate as many immortal souls as she can to atone for the sins of her past and deliver 100 immortal souls, who could not make the cut, to the devil’s earthly army as payment. The rehabilitated immortals become mortal again and are free to live out their lives with a clean slate.
An old friend, Doctor Henrietta Jekyll, is a timid scientist who, many years ago, was attempting to create a youth serum that worked, but she also ended up creating an alternate personality, Ada Hyde, who turns evil and tries to take over Doctor Jekyll’s life. As Doctor Jekyll, she joins Dorian’s quest, hoping to rid herself of Hyde’s evil influence.
But Dorian finds herself doing everything she can to keep from full-filling the bargain with the devil as she nears the end of the 100 immortal rippers who could not rehabilitate, all so she can save as many immortal girls as she can.

MURDER IN THE VALLEYS by Pippa McCathie
About MURDER IN THE VALLEYS by Pippa McCathie
A cozy Welsh crime mystery full of twists (The Havard and Lambert mysteries Book 1)
Ex-superintendent Fabia Havard is struggling with civilian life when a local girl is found dead.
Out walking near the rain-swelled river running past her small Welsh town, she comes across the body of Amber Morgan. Fabia’s police training tells her instantly that the death is the result of foul play. But no longer in the force, all she can do is call it in.
Yet she has mixed feelings when she discovers it is her former colleague, Matt Lambert, newly promoted to chief inspector, who will head the investigation into the girl’s death.
Despite this, having known the victim, and bored with her new job as an illustrator, Fabia can’t help probing into the murder. However, her inquiries further upset the quiet of the town. Not least her neighbour, busybody Rhona Griffiths, who was seen arguing with the victim the day before her death.
Fabia’s activity bothers Matt Lambert but time and time again Fabia’s instincts are proved right. He can’t help leaning on her in order to progress the investigation but that will also involve confronting why she left the force years ago.
Can they put their differences aside and work together to bring the perpetrator to justice despite Fabia’s painful past being brought up again? Or will Fabia’s moonlighting get her into further danger?
MURDER IN THE VALLEYS is set in the fictional town of Pontygwyn in the Welsh valleys under the shadow of the Black Mountains. It will appeal to readers who like traditional whodunnits, those who like the landscape, atmosphere and people of South Wales, and everyone who likes a good read that keeps you turning the page.

About Crack Cocaine Evil Spirit In Jesus Name I Command You To Release Your Hold
This inspiration helps people realize the spiritual reason behind their struggle with drugs and alcohol. Many people look at the natural reasons for their addiction, but neglect to grasp that it’s mainly due to “the demon spirit of rebellion” (Eph.2:2) operating behind the scenes and causing, influencing, suggesting and provoking them to use or drink according to 1st Chr.21:1, and until this spirit is better understood and rebuked it will continue to cause havoc in the lives of those struggling with drug and alcohol addiction as well as mayhem and confusion in the lives of friends and family members who are trying better understand and help someone overcome their addiction.

Part of Romance Books You Should Be Reading: The Holiday Collection, a collaboration between your favorite authors of paranormal and scifi romance!***
Excerpt:
I close my eyes, expecting excruciating pain, but when I open my eyes, I find myself in the arms of a stranger. An extremely handsome stranger. I can’t help gawking at his skincare-commercial-perfect skin, green eyes that sparkle like emeralds, and brilliant hair that’s the most gorgeous shade of red. Did I somehow get into heaven? Because this guy is too beautiful to be from Earth. “Are you an angel?” I blurt out.
He smirks. “No, sweetheart. I did just save your a** though.”
I blink. “Wait, what? That’s impossible. That car was going way too fast… Oh no, is this a coma-induced hallucination?”
“No, sweetheart, this is very much real.”
“That’s exactly what a figment of my comatose imagination would say.”
“Do you want me to prove this is real?”
I laugh. “Sure, go for it.”
Shock fills me when he places his lips on mine. His mouth feels warm, wet, real. My conscious imagination was never this vivid. D**n, he’s a good kisser. I feel myself getting aroused. God, this is actually real.
“Is that enough proof for you?” he whispers.
I’m tempted to say, “No, I think you need to kiss me some more,” but I merely nod.

A Survivor’s Guide to the Dinosaur Apocalypse, Episode Eight: “‘The Elephant Slayer”
About A Survivor’s Guide to the Dinosaur Apocalypse, Episode Eight: “‘The Elephant Slayer”
Welcome to the Big Empty, the world after the Flashback … a world in which most the population has vanished and where dinosaurs roam freely. You can survive here, if you’re lucky, and if you’re not in the wrong place at the wrong time–which is everywhere and all the time. But what you’ll never do is remain the same–for this is a world whose very purpose is to change you: for better or for worse. So take a deep dive into these loosely connected tales of the Dinosaur Apocalypse (each of which can be read individually or as a part of the greater saga): tales of wonder and terror, death and survival, blood … and beauty. Do it today … before the apocalypse comes.
* * *
I looked at the nearest mount, a triceratops head with a broken horn (and a frightful visage), wondering what the circumstances of its death had been. Had it been charging—with the Flashback in its eyes, perhaps—and thus aware that it had an opponent? Or had it been unaware, just mulling its soft grasses, until the bullet entered its brain?
“No,” I said, finally, turning my attention back to him. “Can’t exactly say as I am. It—it’s never seemed like a fair contest to me.” I jerked my leg against the chain—twice—to make a point. “Does it to you?”
“Pshaw,” he protested. “You speak as if we’re enemies. As though this were some contest between you and I, personally. On the contrary, Mr. Hayes. It’s a collaboration.”
I’m afraid I just stared at him.
At last I said: “Okay—why not. I’ll bite. What are you talking about?”
“I am talking, Mr. Hayes …” He stood and began pacing the length of the table. “—about legend. About myth and memory—and the securing of one’s place in the natural order of things.” He withdrew something from his housecoat as he walked—a pipe; but didn’t light it. “Posterity is what I’m talking about. A place at the table of the gods. That, and endings. Inevitabilities.”
He paused and struck a match. “One last and penultimate hunt.”
He lit the pipe and waved out the match, then turned, slowly, regarding me through a cloud of smoke. “Atatilla, is what I’m talking about. Queen of the Mammoths. The, ah, Leviathan of the Steppes, as they say. I intend to kill her. And you, my lost and wayward friend, are going to help me. By acting as my driver.”

Reaching Out, Trusting God: Trusting God When You Feel You Can’t Trust Anyone Else
About Reaching Out, Trusting God: Trusting God When You Feel You Can’t Trust Anyone Else
As Christians we can live a joy-filled, purposeful life with Christ leading us each and every step of the way. While He may allow us to see miracles along the way, we should never believe that a lack of faith will result in us not being healed, being poor, or being unsuccessful in some of the things we try to do. Yet, this is what some Christians think it means to trust God. So, when something doesn’t work out for them like they’re expecting it to, they believe it’s because they don’t have enough faith, that they’re not loved by God, or that they aren’t really a Christian. It is with these things in mind that this Bible study was written. Herein we’ll discover a deeper understanding of what trusting God really means.

About War Hero
This is the story of a dedicated air force officer who was even ready to sacrifice his own life to execute the task assigned to him during the 1971 Indo-Pak war.
Flight Lieutenant Prabhakar, a fighter aircraft pilot, was posted to one of the border Air Force Flying Squadrons while the border tension between India and Pakistan started and finally culminated into a full-fledged war. On 3rd December 1971, the war broke out. On the following day, a team of twelve aircraft of his squadron went to the enemy territory and caused heavy damage, but their Squadron Commander did not return. Without showing any sign of mental disturbance, on the following day Prabhakar proceeded to the enemy territory with specific tasks to cause maximum damage and cripple the enemy. While performing the operations, he had to reduce the altitude and came in the range of anti-aircraft gunfire. Even after knowing that his aircraft was on fire, he stayed over the enemy territory and completed the job until he was fully satisfied and bailed out in the thick forest of the enemy territory. He had to struggle to escape from the clutches of the enemy when he was apprehended and taken to a bunker where he was tortured to extract secrets which he did not heed to and escaped causing heavy damage to the enemy with the assistance of a Pakistani present there. From then on, his struggle to survive and get back to India started. He had to spend many weeks eating leaves, fruits, and uncooked fish to survive. After many days, he reached the border village. Will he finally reach his Squadron and meet his beloved wife? Was his wife expecting him to be back safe, after being reported that he was missing in war.? The big question remains.

Concrete Jungle
About Concrete Jungle
When Nylah Diamond, a young psychiatry student, becomes aware of a new case study, she becomes obsessed with it; something about it intrigues her.
She wants to know about every detail, every statement, every piece of evidence and everyone involved.
…someone else wants it left in the past…
She becomes determined to help piece together everything that has seemingly been hidden and scattered everywhere for so long…
…things that were meant to stay scattered and hidden. Something doesn’t make sense.
Some things from childhood, they stick with you, forever. Small things, big things, what seem like such insignificant things; change things. Change people.
…and if “Dr” Diamond doesn’t let sleeping dogs lie, she may be the next to get bitten.
All of the things you think don’t matter, matter most. What you think matters most, may mean nothing at all. People are animals. Savages. It’s a concrete jungle out there, and even something as small as a snake in the grass, or a spider in a tree, can take down a lion; the king of the jungle.

Power and Prestige
About Power and Prestige
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a mage in possession of a vast fortune and refined magical abilities must be in want of a wife.
Yet High Mage Darkwood of Pemberley has no intention of marriage upon his arrival at Netherfield, especially not to the lowly Miss Cassia Retton. Accustomed to always getting his way, frustration reigns when his magical power against Cassia has no effect.
Cassia Retton puts little stake in inherited magical abilities until she travels to Rosings Park and everything changes. Perhaps it is the very land she stands on. Or is it the proximity to the awful High Mage Darkwood that brings out…something in her?
When Cassia’s family falls to ruin and she’s confronted with the scariest opposition of her life, will Cassia abandon what she’s always believed and summon her power within? And if she does, who will stand by her in the end?
If you relish Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice or enjoy fantasy novels like Robin McKinley’s, this book is for you.
Power and Prestige is Book 1 in the Magical Regency series. Each book in the series is a standalone work and can be read in any order.

Author Bio:
Sarah L. McConkie started her writing career in the second grade with a thirteen-page magnum opus about dinosaurs. Although the plot line and penmanship lacked polish, Sarah learned she loved retiring to bed thinking of what to write the next day. On a good night, she still does the same thing. Sarah took up the pen several years later after tucking her own little dreamer into bed and now combines modern life experiences, a robust knowledge of regency classics and a passion for all things old fashioned and proper to craft her historical romances. She co-stars with her own Mr. Right in the real-life romantic comedy she calls life. Sarah believes creating thought-provoking and moral stories promotes literacy in a world that needs more readers. She has a bachelor’s degree in Music Education and taught junior high choir for several years before becoming a stay-at-home mother to three (almost 4) darling children. She currently teaches piano and voice for BYU independent study. Sarah’s published works include Love and Secrets at Cassfield Manor, The Promise of Miss Spencer, and Power and Prestige: Magical Regency Book 1.
No Remorse by Charity Shumba
About No Remorse by Charity Shumba
Detective David Howard, Detective Kaiden Stephenson and Dr Joanna Cortez are back at it. Again.
When Kaiden attends a party and witnesses a suspicious death, she is not sure what to think. The victim had no history of disease; and now, he’s dead. It could be an accident, but is it an accident? Dr Cortez joins the detectives as they try to make sense of the situation. It has been ten years since the death of Louis McKay’s wife, and finally, he has found love again and he’s ready to settle down. But will it be happily ever after everyone wishes for?
Joanna can’t help thinking of her experiences a few months back; when she lost special people as well. She finds it easy to connect with Aleena Gibbons and to understand her, but is Aleena being honest with everyone around her, or is she hiding something?
This new case triggers a memory for Detective Howard; one that might give them a motive for the crime. This explanation, however, rules out the only reasonable suspect they have; the son of the deceased. If he did not do it, then who did?
That one murder leads to more murders as the murderer tries desperately to cover the tracks and mistakes. This might seem like an easy case to solve, but as is the case with criminals; nothing is ever that easy.
Sometimes you do one thing and you don’t think, then you do another thing to cover up for that one. This becomes a pattern until you’re caught. The killer might be someone we least expect, or someone we can’t prove.
*** Can be read as a standalone***

The Amazing Maddie Sykes by Linton Darling
About The Amazing Maddie Sykes by Linton Darling
Have you ever felt like you were invisible? Like you could go right up to someone and wave your hands in their face without them seeing a thing? Or walk through a crowded room without a single person noticing?
Me too.
For me though, it wasn’t just a feeling.
It all looks so simple in the movies: get superpowers, save the world. But for Maddie Sykes, the power to become invisible seems to cause more problems than it solves. Finding herself unable to share her secret with her friends and family, Maddie struggles to find the right path on her own. Is she destined to be a superhero, a villain, or something else?
With the stakes rising both at home and at school, Maddie has to confront the truth about her powers and the dark secrets behind them or risk losing everything.
A teen / young adult story for anyone who’s ever felt invisible, perfect for fans of The Hunger Games, Stargirl, and Five Feet Apart.

I don’t have a short temper. I just have a quick reaction to bulls**t.
But here’s some personal stuff too:
I was born in London and have lived here all my life, except for 6 months in 1995 spent on a Mediterranean island. I live with an extremely understanding and tolerant hubby, and two adorable monsters.
Dislikes: Pessimists, complainers, laziness, excuses.
Loves: To read and write angsty, sexy, flirty romance. When not writing, I like to stalk my friends on social media, hang out with my bestie drinking cocktails. But most of all spending time with my family.
The Thing About Space by Shaun Powell
About The Thing About Space by Shaun Powell
THE THING ABOUT SPACE, THE DEBUT NOVELLA FROM SHAUN POWELL.
When Clare surrenders the spare-room in her Dublin apartment to Bunker, an online marketplace for lodgings and home-stays, she doesn’t think much of the fleeting guests that come to stay. In fact, she does her best to avoid them.
Struggling to finish her sophomore novel, and lumbering through life in the wake of an unimaginable tragedy, Clare has lost her way.
But when Zoe, a mysterious and magnetic young woman from Belfast, checks in, Clare can’t help her curiosity, and it’s this unexpected encounter that will lead her on an extraordinary night around The Fair City – a night that will change Clare’s life forever.
THE THING ABOUT SPACE is a striking story about love, loss and friendship, and all the space in-between. Composed entirely in lockdown during the Covid-19 Pandemic, the novella is the debut release from Shaun Powell, an Irish writer who has previously garnered close to ONE MILLION READS online with his earlier work.

The first story I ever wrote was about a trip to Hollywood with my family – I was seven years old. My mam proudly displayed it on the fridge and thus began my passion for writing and sharing.
In a small town in Ireland, with a population just shy of 3000, I spent most of my adolescence writing unsolicited short stories in my room, submitting them excitedly to my English teachers for critiques and validation. One swore I’d be an author one day – another thought I was a nuisance but we won’t get into that – but it wasn’t until I started publishing online that the idea of a career in writing really became an aspiration.
I quickly amassed close to one million collective reads online and since then have begun work on my debut novel, Volatile States. In the meantime, I will be releasing a series of novellas, the first being “The Thing About Space.”
Thanks for being awesome and supporting the authors.
