Kate Flora

Kate Flora grew up on a chicken farm in Maine where the Friday afternoon trip to the library was the high point of her week. She dreamed of being able to create the kind of compelling, enchanting worlds of the books she disappeared into every week, but growing up in the era when “help wanted” ads were still sex-segregated, she felt her calling was to go to law school and get the job they told her she couldn’t have.

After law school, Kate worked in the Maine attorney general’s office, protecting battered kids, chasing deadbeat dads, and representing the Human Rights Commission. Those years taught her all a crime writer needs to know about the human propensity to commit horrible acts. After some years in private practice, she decided to give w

Mike Davenport

"You Can Thrive in Today's Wild World of Coaching Sports"

Sport coaches shouldn't pay a heavy price for coaching -- but many do. That price can be physical, mental, social, financial and/or emotional. And it contributes to really good coaches and fine people quitting coaching well before they should. That's wrong, especially considering many coaches are volunteers, or coach to "help out".

However, there are tricks and hacks, when used properly, that can enhance a coaching experience, a coach's legacy, and the effectiveness of any coach.

And that's what Mike writes about.

Mike has had a 35-year collegiate coaching career, along with national team and Olympic team experience.

He has his doctorate in educational innovation and leadership, has be

J.R. Salisbury

I've always been a creative individual. Writing is just a facet of that creativity...

My careers in public relations in and around the entertainment industry, photography, editing, artist management, modeling and special event planning all elevated my passion for writing, not to mention gave me a treasure trove for story lines.

I write historical romance (as JR Salisbury) and contemporary (as Jamie Salisbury) I am fortunate enough that writing (and marketing of said product(s)) is my full-time job, although I always have one or two other projects going at the same time.

I now live in a suburb of Atlanta when I'm not in the UK. Some of my other interests include photography, equestrianism, reading, and of course, travel.

I sincerely hope my wri

Lorna Seilstad

For as long as I can remember, I loved writing. I even dreamed in plots. I also grew up attending antique auctions nearly every weekend, so history was as much a part of my life as chores on our farm in Iowa, reading books, and playing with Barbies.

So, writing historical romances fit perfectly. Times may change, the style of clothes, the way we speak, but the common threads that unite us remain the same. Couples fall in love. Injustices
happen. We fight for what we believe in. We struggle. We endure. We grow.

After graduating from York College in York, Nebraska with an A.A. and then receiving a B.S.Ed. from Lubbock Christian University, I met and married the love of my life, David. God had
written our love story, and I knew from the moment we
