Meet Published Author Elizabeth Edmondson


Elizabeth Edmondson was born in Chile to an impeccably English father and a distinctly un-English Argentine mother. Educated by Benedictine nuns in Calcutta, Fabians in London, and Inklings at Oxford, she has lived in England, India, Malta and Italy. Her Mountjoy books (originally published by Hodder & Stoughton, 1993-8, under the pen-name Elizabeth Pewsey) were inspired by years of living in York, where her son was a chorister at the Minster, and depict the unholy, unquiet, and frequently unseemly goings-on of an (imaginary) northern cathedral city and its peculiar surroundings.

Meet Aspiring Author Abby Jones


Abby Jones grew up in a family of voracious readers. From the age of six, Abby showed signs of loving stories, but with a strong repugnance to grammar and spelling, she never considered writing. One day, her then boyfriend, now husband, took up the art. Inspired by his short stories, Abby began to take the stories in her head and put them on paper. Her first attempts at writing were mostly swords and sorcery, or high fantasy inspired by years of Dungeons and Dragons. With each story, she wrote herself into a box and set it aside. This trend continued for almost eight years. Finally, Abby decided to switch to a modern urban fantasy setting, and the stories started to flow. In two years, she finished her first novel, When Skies are Gray, a tale of a serial killer hunting two generations of the Galloway family. Less than a year later, she finished her second novel, Inheritance, a tale of a man forced to hold souls while they die. Inheritance is now a weekly, readable tale on her blog. She is currently working on book 3, 4, and 5.

Abby has lived in places as diverse as Los Angeles, California, and Yellville, Arkansas but Texas is her home. She can milk a goat and dress local socialites for charity events. Abby and her husband own a small set of designer consignment boutiques in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. 

She has designed a world which mirrors our own, which allows her to blend her research on serial killers, a love of fashion, steampunk, and her faith. She writes tales of hope after hardship, of the light shining in the darkness, of the power of friendship, and love. Her stories include witches, serial killers, fairies, angels, demons, vampires, and humans trying to live normal lives. Abby describes her writing style as an 80s action movie in a book, spiced up with bits of horror, thriller, anime, and poetry. Her main muses are J.R.R. Tolkien, Dean Koontz, Sylvester Stallone, Gene Rodenberry, and Joss Wheden, which gives her a unique, fun, and fast paced voice, though sometimes a bit cheesy.

With a strong background in classical fiction, literary fiction, and modern thrillers, Abby Jones hopes to offer back to the world what she enjoys as a reader – a great yarn!

Meet Published Author Kelly McClymer



Kelly McClymer fell in love with Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White as a child. Her most prized possession is her copy of The Complete Tales of the Brothers Grimm. These are the stories that gripped our ancestors as they huddled around the fire at night, which taught countless children to persevere through hardship and succeed against the odds. Her favorite fairytale remains "The Six Swans" -- where a young sister must not speak a word for six years in order to save her brothers from their stepmother's evil spell.


Kelly's newest novel, The Impetuous Bride, is now available in eBook through all your favorite retailers listed below. 


Rosaline (Ros) Fenster has always been the black sheep of her proper Victorian family. Ros prefers to chart her own path, even if she must dress as a man on occasion to do what must be done. Escaping her life as an English lady by emigrating to America, Ros has found adventure helping runaway slaves find freedom. But now her path west has set her on a collision course with Wagonmaster Rob Lewis. Rob doesn't want anything to disrupt his wagon train's journey west. Not escaped slaves. Not his own daughter. And especially not his late wife's cousin -- a woman who dares to do what she thinks right, and damn the consequences.

Meet The Author: Carmen DeSousa

 




Carmen DeSousa is a Florida native, and currently lives in South West Florida. When not writing, she enjoys spending time with her husband and sons, and of course, indulging in her favorite pastime—reading. Often, she confessed, she will read two to three novels at a time.

Her family instilled in her a love of reading, and after pushing her dreams of becoming a published author aside for twenty years, she jumped in with both feet. In the past two years, she has published six romantic-suspense mystery novels and two free short stories. Several of her novels have shared bestseller space with Nicholas Sparks, Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb, Iris Johansen, and other New York Times bestselling authors.

Her first novel, She Belongs to Me, is always specially priced at .99 cents, and from there, all of her novels are less than a latte, so you can enjoy them all. 

You can find all of Carmen's bestsellers and even pick up a free short story on Amazon.

Meet The Author ~ Synithia Williams

The Writers Buzz online magazine featured her short story, Weekends, in October 2011, and she is a member of Romance Writers of America. When she isn’t writing, this Green Queen—as dubbed by the State Newspaper—works to improve air and water quality, while balancing the needs of her husband and two sons.
