CORE by NLAlston CORE by NLAlston Jun. 21, 2010 $1.99 17020 words Sample 25%
Author bio:
I am a God loving, Family loving, Life loving individual who really enjoys the simpler things in life. Writing, for one, has been a long time interest of mine, and one that I have finally decided to try my hand at. CORE (my second attempt at writing) is my first completed book, and I have to say that I really enjoyed the time that I spent writing it. I truly hope that any readers of it will realize the same enjoyment in perusing it - and that they will look forward to more coming from me. When not trying to come up with ideas for a new story; endeavoring to hone my photographic skills or compose another song, my aim is to live each day to be better than the day before, and hope - on a daily basis - that I can do something to create a smile on someone's face; that I can impart a degree of clarity to someone's confusion, and that I can be instrumental in easing the discomfort in someone's troubled mindset. Peace & Love is what I feed on ~ and share.
Heavenly Bride 2 by Katrina Joyner-Belcher Heavenly Bride 2 by Katrina Joyner-Belcher Jun. 13, 2010 $2.75 5233 words Sample 25%
Author bio:
Since the age of 14, Katrina has loved to tell stories - usually of the fantasy or science fiction variety. Her work has been read worldwide, loved by many. Although her art often bends towards the dramatic and, dare we say, cliche she is often heard to say that her sense of humor is how she makes a living. She's funny, witty, and deeply in love with Three Musketeer bars. All other bars stand without comment. She is a member of Friends of Lulu and fiercely believes in the support of writers, comic artists, and single mothers. This has nothing to do with her fitting in either of these categories, even if she does or has done so at one time in her life. If pressured, she will elaborate on her plans for global domination using nothing but some golf balls and a pink tutu. Other than that, she claims that her hair is exactly a meter long and all else would bore you.
