Blitzball – A Clone of Hitler Rebels Against Nazis in Coming of Age by Barton Ludwig

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

In a book that speaks out against racism, a clone of Hitler battles his genes at Reichfield High where soccer is literally war and the battle is fought between Neo-Nazis and Mexicans. "The tone hits a range of notes between Suzanne Collins' 2010 book, Mockingjay, and Mel Brooks' 1967 film, The Producers." - Kirkus Reviews Targeted Age Group:: 15-30 What Inspired You to Write Your Book? Was inspired to write this book by the political situation in the world with fascism on the rise.

About Jesse McKinnell: JESSE McKINNELL grew up in Massachusetts but has lived peacefully in Maine for many years. On July 4, 2015, he had a dream about a dentist with a passion for writing sitcoms.

Interview with Author – Sam Bowring

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

About Sam Bowring: I'm an Australian author and stand-up comedian. My main genres are fantasy and children’s books. I like to take cliches and tropes of the genre and twist them around in new and interesting ways. I've written plays and for television. I was named after the family cat. I like croissants a lot. Too much, perhaps. What inspires you to write? I have always been somewhat of a show-off, and yet also somewhat lazy. Writing is a great way to show off without actually having to be … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – Sam Bowring

The Legendary Haunting of Quentin Wallis by C.K. McKenzie

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

"It has been in the nature of fairy tales that they begin with ‘Once Upon a Time’ and end with a ‘Happily Ever After’. However this is not a fairy tale. It is a somewhat true story…" Quentin Wallis was not dead but neither was he entirely alive. He was something very much ‘in-between’. In short, Quentin Wallis was cursed. For a century he had been fated to live only on Halloween, seeking out his true love so that he might break the curse which had been laid upon him. The tricky situation … [Read more...] about The Legendary Haunting of Quentin Wallis by C.K. McKenzie

Interview with Author – David Little

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

About David Little: David Little wrote his first full length novel when he was 16. Titled "The Old Firm" it was an homage to the classic Universal horror films that he used to watch as child - but shouldn't have really - juxtaposed with the modern, blood filled remake culture of the 80s. One person read the novel and asked if it was for adults; when Little nodded, the reader shook his head. The reader asked if it was children; when Little hesitatingly nodded, the reader shook his head … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – David Little

Interview with Author – Clayton Smith

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

About Clayton Smith: Clayton Smith is a writer of speculative fiction living in Chicago, where he has become exceedingly good at cursing the winters. He writes novels, short stories, and plays, mostly. His work has been featured on the popular Internet site Amazon, and he has had plays produced rather mercilessly in St. Louis and New York City. Clayton tends to inject a healthy dose of magical realism into his stories, which distresses his characters to no end. One day, they will likely … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – Clayton Smith

Things Grak Hates by Peter J Story

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

Grak hates things. Lots of things. And with a peculiar intensity too. Grak’s contempt is so strong, in fact, that it often leaves his fellow tribesmen bewildered. And when attempting to describe his personality, they find themselves in need of words with greater nuance. “Neurotic” is typically used. “Sociopath” and “narcissist” are also common terms. The most popular descriptor, however, is “pathological.” Grak, on the other hand, sees his situation in a rather different light. He finds … [Read more...] about Things Grak Hates by Peter J Story

Larry’s Journal: A Halloween Special by L.J. Dickles

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

On the outside, Larry appears to be an average, ordinary guy. Wife, two kids, house in the 'burbs, office job, etc. But...nothing could be further from the truth. He may appear harmless--minding his own business and treating everyone with professional courtesy--but he's actually dreaming up and acting out elaborate plots of revenge for every single 'darwin dodger' he encounters on a daily basis. He may have no recourse in the real world, but in his mind nothing is off limits. So strap on a … [Read more...] about Larry’s Journal: A Halloween Special by L.J. Dickles
