Michele Levy
Born a Yankee in Providence, Rhode Island, after seven years in Boston, I moved with my family to Wisconsin and Northern Virginia. Then I continued the southern trend with graduate studies in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and followed my Brooklyn-born husband even farther south, to New Orleans. Twenty-six years later, we traded the Superdome (seven minutes away from our house by car) for the North Carolina woods. This wandering stripped away my Boston accent, leaving a tendency to enunciate clearly that made New Orleanians think I was from England.

Life is messy and I try to reflect that in my stories while still leaving readers with a feeling of hope. I want them to see themselves and people they know in my characters.

You could say writing is in my genes. My paternal grandmother was a formidable diarist; my father was a journalist and poet; my sister and cousin are both published authors; even my son has shown a talent for putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard) to tell awesome stories. So, it came as no surprise to anyone when I returned to my love of fiction after more than 20 years in the world of corporate communications–although some might argue there was plenty of opportunity for fiction-writing there, too.
A fan of many genres, I find it hard to stay within the publishing -

August 8th, in the not-so-distant future, just before dawn.
In a remote rain forest on the North Island of New Zealand, overlooking the constantly moving ocean, stands a very large, very old Kauri tree. The air is cool and wet, the drizzling rain briefly interrupted by the thick green canopy high above the forest floor. There, it gathers into larger droplets, preparing for the forty-metre plunge to the earth below.
Covered in an immensely dense layer of wet moss, this tree trunk is fifteen metres in diameter. The trunk towers steeply upward, void of any branches for the full forty metres, before strong, thick bra -

Andrew Cheffings
Andrew Cheffings was born on a small working farm on the Lincolnshire Marsh. The local culture he was born into was coming to an end. His Grandfather still spoke N. Lincolnshire dialect and had a store of stories, aurally transmitted through the generations. Evenings with him were often spent sharing these stories. Life on the farm had its difficulties. And in recent memory there had been a time when every winter was spent digging long trenches by hand, right across wide, heavy clay fields, back and forth, right through the day, in order to drain the water-logged earth. Andrew's stories reflect the experiences of growing up in a challenging local culture which was coming to its end, but was also rich in stories and traditions. And into thes
