Johanna Neuman
Johanna Neuman's latest book, The Concert: A Novel About Musicians Who Defied Hitler's Siege of Leningrad, is about a group of women who were caught between Hitler's fascism and Stalin's communism. They survived by embracing their creativity and their families. An earlier book, Gilded Suffragists, tells the story more than 200 women of enormous wealth who joined the fight to win women the right to vote. With names like Astor, Belmont and Vanderbilt, they were the media darlings of their day, covered for every excess of fashion and decor. And when they risked their social standing to win the vote for women, it was like Oprah Winfrey blessing a cause today. It popularized the movement.

C.J. Daly
CJ Daly grew up on the scrabbly plains of Eastern New Mexico. When she was supposed to be helping her six siblings with chores on the family ranch, she was really sneaking behind dusty haystacks to read. And dreaming about becoming a writer.
Buy books on Amazon
After graduating high school, CJ moved to Big D (Dallas), where she quickly put herself through college while trying to rid herself of her country accent. She had better luck with college, graduating cum laude with a degree in English literature. After teaching a few years, and pausing to have back-to-back boys, she began writing in earnest.
A few years later, "The Academy Saga" was born. "The Academy" is her debut novel, and "The Academy, Cadet-in-Training" is the sequel. -

I started to work at the age of 14 in the international shipping trade and have continued the same field throughout my life. I lived on Long Island most of my adult life and I've spent a lot of time close to or on the ocean, as this was the place I

Josh Steele
Josh never planned to become an erotic writer—until a muse named Emma whispered her story into his ear. Now he writes to remember, to relive, and to feel. His stories are confessions, fantasies, and sometimes, a little too real.

When he’s not writing, you’ll likely find him in the corner of a café pretending to work while eavesdropping on strangers’ conversations and over analyzing their body language like it’s a thesis on human desire. He tells himself it’s research.
The baristas are skeptical.
