I'm Sylvia Ramsey's guest today at http://wwwthouhtfulreflections.blogspot.com/2011/05/chatting-with-john-r-lindermuth-about.html

We're discussing Fallen From Grace, my latest book; my other books and various aspects of the writing life.

Keep blogging for all it’s worth

There’s a place for your blog on this wide, vast Earth

In other words, I just realized I love…

Today’s short story author Cleveland W. Gibson has really grown on me. He has developed a nice, small library of work already that displays his diversity and uncanny ability to drive deep into the heart and soul of matters, regardless of the genre. Here is a something about the author if you haven’t had a read on his work yet and also something on the digital short story:

“Cleveland W. Gibson has a knack for the paranormal/fantasy world and in Silver Wolf he takes us on…

I decided NOT to pay the $25 for my epub guy to put AFTER into the e-world. I did it myself. And it was pretty easy. I would recommend people try to do it themselves and only if they can't then hire someone to do it. Getting on smashwords is a little harder but I think I'll be able to figure it out. I'll let you know how it goes. That said, and being all proud of myself, I realized to my horror that I made a mistake in my description. I have my character being two ages. Fifteen and…

Lucas Davenport just knows how to find his guy and solve a mystery doesn’t he? I really love this novel for so many reasons, let me count the ways. But first, let’s just jump into the synopsis:

“A house demolition provides an unpleasant surprise for Minneapolis-the bodies of two girls, wrapped in plastic. It looks like they've been there a long time. Lucas Davenport knows exactly how long.

In 1985, Davenport was a young cop with a reputation for recklessness, and the girls'…

Many writers, especially those first starting out, have a hard time knowing how to market their book to a publisher...let alone to their readership once its in print. 

Today, we have Ronda Eden, writer and illustrator, and Steve Cormey song writer and children’s book author here to share a bit about how…

"Truth pressed to earth will rise."

In 1965, against impossible odds, all-black Durham, North Carolina's Hillside High's basketball team fought bigotry and poverty, to become State Champions, fulfilling a vow five members made as freshmen. Their records still stand. - A true story.

A Middle school book to share with my youngest daughter on occasion is fun and breaks things up a bit. Next week I will be reading a Brett Battles middle school novel, and sometime later I believe the new John Grisham YA novel also. Okay let’s get this rolling along and find out what is between the covers:

“In a terrifying future world, four girls must depend on each other if they want to survive.

Louisa is nervous about being sent away to a boarding school -- but she’s…

I am amazed each and every time I get to read one of the new installments in The Smoking Gun Sisterhood Series. There are ten installments; we have reached number five and man I do not want it to end. Hopefully Thad Brown will see fit to start something new or to expand the universe of strong female characters he has developed. I make no bones about my love for this man’s writing; he is just sensational. As a side note: I have had the privilege of collaborating with Thad Brown on a Trestle…

Hi, for those of you that may not know me yet, I am Giovanni “The G-Man” Gelati. I have a blog, a blogtalk radio show, am a cover art artist, and now I am a collaborator. No I am not a terrorist or doing anything illegal, but collaborating with authors of all different genres to bring fun  and interesting digital short stories to the masses. Besides blatant self-promotion why am I taking up your time to put this out there? Very simply I want to help and I want to get to Know YOU…
