Bear Lawrence

Hi,

I'm Bear Lawrence and I’ve enjoyed an interesting life. I’ve worked as a delivery driver in Norway, a helicopter tour pilot in the Caribbean, and a flight instructor in Oregon. In the UK I’ve been a sales assistant, gardener, landlord, biomedical engineer and award-winning inventor. I’ve even been lucky enough to have raced motorbikes, karts and yachts.

Suffering from stress as an overloaded university lecturer, I caught a viral infection and was in bed for seven weeks. Afterwards, I found I was utterly fatigued all of the time. Five months later, my GP diagnosed me with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, or simply ME. ME is also known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), or ME/CFS.

Struggling to articulate the illness to friends and family, I star

When an injury on duty ended my career as Probation Officer, I began writing. I am the author of the Kate Daniels and Ryan & O’Neil series published by Pan Macmillan and the Stone & Oliver series published by Orion. My debut, The Murder Wall, was written as a TV pilot for a BBC Drama Development Scheme - before the adaption. The novel won the Polari First Book Prize.

And in 2017, I won the Dagger in the Library for my body of work. I'm represented b

Sybrina Durant

Hi:

I am the author of many different types of books. Some are technical and others are fanciful. Illustrated books are my favorite. I believe that you can capture a reader’s attention with a good story but amazing artwork will reel them in and keep them riveted.

Check out my newest series titled Magical Elements of the Periodic Table. Books are presented by unicorns, dragons and wizards. It's Techno-Magical.

Boo's Shoes is my last rabbit and fox book and it is a companion to Cleo Can Tie A Bow! Make sure to put it on your bookshelf so that you'll have it handy when you know someone who wants to learn to tie their shoelaces or any other kind of bow.

Journey To Osm - The Blue Unicorn's Tale is my first full-length novel. Please look for it on
