I always wrote compulsively. There was no need to seek inspiration, unless I felt a little depleted--in which case, I'd wait a while and soon be back to writing again.

Aghast at American cinema's descent into boundary-pushing violence, famed Hollywood director J. Edgar Schnatz decides to move in the opposite direction-a celebration of sexuality. But making the world's first mainstream adult film comes with its own unique set of challenges, from finding a willing cast and sufficient financing to getting that all-important NC-17 rating. This book is selling but needs reviews. Maybe readers are afraid to attach their names to something with this theme.

I've always enjoyed writing in my journal and found retirement the perfect opportunity to fulfill my dream of being an author. When COVID hit, I found myself with plenty of time on my hands, so I decided to try my hand at a children's book. Having worked as a software engineer for most of my career, I had no idea what I was getting into. I did not know anything about query letters, ISBNs, editing, or illustration costs, and went in completely blind. The query letters resulted in several (well, more like 25) rejections, and that is when I decided to go the self-publishing route. If I waited around too long, I would never get published. I was also inspired to write children's books by my grandchildren. This year, my 5-year-old granddaughter brought one of my books to school and dressed as the book's character. I was so inspired and touched by this. My stories are my legacy.

My latest children's book, Five Different Boo-Boos, encourages kids not to let a few boo-boos get in the way of an adventurous day. Told through the first-person perspective of an energetic and bold girl, we follow her throughout a week of adventures. Joined by her band-aid-toting dog, she ventures from home to school and to the park, where she finds multiple ways to acquire a scrape, bump, or bruise. Five Different Boo-boos teaches kids that they might get a scratch and a bump, but they can always get back to playing. And, even if they get hurt the first time they try something new, it just means there’s more to learn and more fun to be found.

God pursued me to write. For a Christian who has challenges in herself by doubting her capabilities to finish her calling to write was an achievement. Rebecca Ann life stories fills with hopes and dreams that has been shattered but relying on God’s time of restoration. It is happening presently one events at a time which she appreciated much.

Because it’s a memoir characters are real (except for their names). As well as the events that took place.

I began having a lot of other-worldly experiences and wanted to document them in the best way I knew how, a book, which turned out to be a multitude of books. I had always been an evidential writer from my time in the police force, this was still evidential writing, just a different subject matter.

'The Movement - Illumination of the World' is a book that explains the cosmos and the world, the science hidden from us and the true meanings of religious writings that the church hid from us and why. It covers all things esoteric and secret...

My Mother was an avid book reader and had read all the classics, Dickens, The Austens, Shakespeare etc. She was also a passionate devotee of poetry and her influence can be felt by me in the two collections of my poems that have been published (Curses & Verses and Reflections)

My latest book 'Traitors' is a complete change of direction for me from the sad but compelling published story about my dog 'Olly & Me' to a fictional tale of murder, intrigue, double-cross and plot twists that hopefully keeps the reader on the edge of their seats throughout.,

My parents instilled a love of reading in me at a very young age and by 10 years old, I wanted to write.

My latest novel, Second Chances, is about a man my age in 2020 (47) who wonders what it would be like to relive his teen years and change things for the better. He gets a chance to do that.

I was 5 years old when I first start writing. I just remember loving to write. I would write anything and everything. We had gotten a new computer, and it didn't have any games but had word documents. I thought it would be cool to fill it up with words. It was easier and cheap for me to carry around a spiral notebook and pen everywhere I went. Whenever inspiration came to me, I would write it down instantly.

I am adopted. My birth mom had me when she was 15. When I was 13 years old, I thought, what if she had decided to keep me? I wanted to show the child’s perspective since you never hear from them. And how maybe the daughter was meant to be born. Thus, Who Is It? was created.

My father was born in 1919 and grew during the Depression. He had to quit school at the age of twelve and go to work in his uncle's garage. He wasn't an educated man, but he had an imagination. When I was a kid, he created this character named Archibald Popscaluski who took bad little boys to the little factory to trade them in for a new model. My dad created a whole world where all of this took place. My first book, The Hollow is dedicated to my father without whom I would have no imagination. I really started writing stories in high school and kept at it while raising my family and working. Today I have published three books so far and plan on publishing several more.

My latest book is called, Missing. It is based off of a real story from the Houston, TX area where a young girl got off the school bus one day and was never seen again. I have my private detective, Bruce Westman take up the case to search for a girl who went missing 16 years ago. He is hired by the girl's mother who is dying of cancer and wants him to find her daughter before she dies. As a retired police officer this actual case touched my heart in a way other crimes and disappearances didn't. Even the Houston girl has never been found I do allow this story to have a happy ending.

I've always been fascinated with the printed word. As a journalist, I saw how words can come alive when used creatively in a sentence.

Their Last Hurrah combines suspense, investigative intrigue, and ethical reflection, making it a compelling read for fans of murder mysteries, political thrillers, and character driven dramas.

I felt I had a story to tell. Writing it was a very big learning curve, but I enjoyed the process, and I've now written over twenty books.

My last book was book five in my Jocasta Bradman Investigates series. The books are amusing, paranormal, historical mysteries. Jostcasta is a spiritual medium. The Latest book is called Jocasta Bradman Investigates A Regency Mystery. I was inspired by Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice, and I loved writing about the Regency Period.
