Timm Mains
I'm a Christian and have been married for over forty years. My wife and I have four children and ten grandchildren. We moved to Tucson, AZ, in 1986 from Kentucky. I've been an avid reader, mostly Sci-Fi and Fantasy, for fifty years. I started the Season of the End Times: The Rapture during the pandemic in January 2020 and published it in July 2020. I've since completed three more books in the series. Thank you to everyone who has read the stories; it's a fun project. I enjoy presenting the Gospel differently through regular people's lives who get put into very different and challenging situations. We are living in troubling times, and spiritual warfare is real. Jesus is our only salvation. There is no neutral ground. Thank you, and peace be

Athol Dickson
Athol Dickson's parents were living on the road when he was born. His first bed was a drawer lined with towels in a travel trailer. He has loved road trips ever since. Boating is a passion, too. Athol owns three boats, and once lived aboard a yacht full-time while cruising the Gulf of Mexico and the USA's Atlantic coast. But Athol's nine novels are proof he can sit still and write if he's with his wife of nearly 30 years, The Lovely Sue. They live in Southern California, where Athol is at work on novel number ten, the second in a series call "The Malcolm Cutter Memoirs" about a multi-millionaire chauffeur who would rather solve mysteries for his clients than hang out on his yacht. What bliss: a novel that combines boats and road trips!

Terri J. Haynes, a native Baltimorean, is a mom, prolific knitter, freelance graphic artist, and former Army wife (left the Army, not the husband). She is also the owner of AT Haynes House Yarns, a hand-dyed yarn business. She loves to read, so much that when she was in elementary school, she masterminded a plan to be locked in a public library armed with only a flashlight to read all the books and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. As she grew, her love for writing grew as she tried her hand at poetry, articles, speeches, and fiction. She is a storyteller at heart. Her passion is to draw readers into the story world she has created and to bring laughter and joy to their lives.
