  Nicholas Wolfe

  Nicholas Wolfe’s path to authorship is as gripping as the story he tells. Wrongly accused and imprisoned, Wolfe was cut off from the world—but not from his imagination. With no access to computers or traditional writing tools, he saved what little he had to buy notebooks and pencils, crafting Shatter entirely by hand, page by page. Fantasy became both his escape and his way of reclaiming identity. What started as a lifeline in confinement evolved into a raw, personal exploration of fate, power, and self-worth. Shatter isn’t just a novel—it’s a bold testament to the power of storytelling, born from injustice and transformed into art. Now free, Wolfe is dedicated to sharing his voice and world, proving that even in the darkest places, creativ

  Chiara Forestieri

  Originally, I'm from just outside New Orleans. I had my first son at 16. He's my best friend and we cry laugh together pretty much every day. I also have a 3.5 year old son who is far more refined than either of us, and he keeps us both in line. My two tiny angels are the heart and soul of me.
  
  I've been writing since I can remember- was a bit of (a lot of) an outcast when I was a kid so books were my only friends, and the MMCs within them my true loves. Still are, honestly. I'm a single mother and prefer to keep it that way until I meet someone as worthy as the morally grey MMCs in my books. Until then, I dedicate my spare time to constantly getting my ass handed to me by practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai almost every night, medi

  Sarah A. Bailey

  Sarah fell in love with reading as a child, starting with the Magic Treehouse Series. She quickly learned that books can take her to all the places she always dreamed of going, and allow her to live endless lifetimes in the one that we are given.
  Sarah believes that a good, fluffy romance novel can make even the darkest days a little bit brighter. She believes in love stories readers can root for, the kind that will make even the skeptics believe in all that cheesy stuff like soulmates. She longs to produce stories that readers can pick up, and regardless of what’s weighing them down in life, feel a little lighter when they finish.
  Sarah was born in California and raised in Southern Oregon, and still considers herself a Pacific Northwest ga

  Rhiannon Hargadon

  There was a willow I loved by a creek; sometimes I slept there. I was never afraid, alone in the dark. There was nothing to fear from water and trees and fairytales.
  
  The real monsters were always people.
  
  ...
  
  Can we forgive injustice?
  Do we accept the fate forced upon us?
  Should we fight, no matter the cost?
  How do we move on from great loss?
  What would you trade to relive one moment?
  
  
  I write folklore and mythology inspired dark fantasy. Emphasis on dark. I don't shy away from serious issues and emotions: suicide, depression, mental illness, abuse, death, infertility, and assault are all in my books. These are not for pleasure or shock value, but because I want to write about authentic pain and suffering, and how we heal ourselves through the bad th
