Victoria S. Hardy

“I'm just as surprised as the reader is at what happens in my stories” says Augusta, Georgia-born author Victoria S. Hardy about her “unconventional” style of novel writing. She plans nothing, makes no outlines and she doesn't even know how the story will end until the moments before she writes it. She literally watches the story unfold in her mind as she scrambles to transcribe it. The stories themselves sometimes turn out as full length novels, novellas or short stories. “Something just compels me to write, and I write!” she explains.

Her style is a hybrid of suspense, drama, horror, paranormal and a bit of religious influence, sort of like Dean Koontz meets Stephen King.

Mary Jane Salyers

About the Author – Mary Jane Salyers

I grew up in a rural county in East Tennessee during the 1940s and 1950s. This county had very little industry–a few small coal mines and sawmills, so most people made their living as farmers or traveled out of the county to find jobs. Many families lived on small tracts of land, often on hillsides or in hollows, where they eked out a living from the soil–enough to survive. At that time, my county was among the poorest counties in all of Appalachia.

My family had our little fifteen-acre plot, about a third of which was not tillable. We kept cows to provide milk and butter and raised chickens, hogs, rabbits, and goats, and sometimes horses. During the summer we raised a big garden and canned and preserved f

Anna K. Abbi

I grew up spending my time on a very large wheat farm in the Kansas Prairie, or with my Grandmother in Topeka. Life was full with friends, school, success, and abuse. My father was a war vet. He returned from the war grappling with PTSD, and raised hell for our family. This ended badly! At age 17 I set out for California on my own, my life corrected and I found success in jobs and relationships. At the age of 24 I became a quadriplegic for 63 days, after breaking my neck in a car accident. By some miracle, my body recovered, and I walked away. I then moved to Santa Barbra where I started three businesses, Earned my living, purchased homes, cars, and and lived a life I feel proud to have experienced. I moved to Vermont for the allure of cle

I am an author, writer, homeopath, nutritionist, gardener and nature lover. I began my career with my own variety series on BBC as a singer. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome put an end to that world-traveling life as an entertainer, and I studied nutrition and homeopathy.

I recently changed my focus to be able to write full-time, and have published six books.

My new women's fiction novel, "Eva" was launched in the summer of 2023 and won the Reviewer's Award from Feathered Quill Book Awards for 2024! I call it a love story with a supernatural twist. Here is a little more about it.:

Eva possesses a unique and powerful gift. But is it a curse?

She plays down her beauty, to avoid attention. But it doesn’t work. She has a magnetic quality, a calm, a power o

Freddie Owens

I was born in Kentucky but grew up around Detroit. I would sometimes spend a week or two, once I spent six weeks, in Kentucky, staying with cousins or with my grandparents. And yes, it was an entirely different world for me, providing some of the best and worst times of my growing up years. I had a great time on a dairy farm with several of my cousins, milking cows, hoeing tobacco, running over the hills and hollers and up and down a creek that surrounded the big farm. I remember too, periods of abject boredom, sitting around my grandparent's place with nothing to do but wander about the red clay yard or kill flies on my grandmother's screened in back porch.

Certain aspects of this history did manifest knowingly at times, at times spontaneo
