About April Grace: April Grace has always lived in Milton Keynes, and now lives with her boyfriend and, a few nights a week, his two cheeky sons.

Interview with Author – Derek Power
About Derek Power: I began writing in early 2001, mainly focusing on short stories. After winning the odd contest here and there I figured I would try and write something a little longer.

Interview with Author – Atucim Sanumar
About Atucim Sanumar: Hello. I grew up with video games and anime when I was a kid. From early childhood I was dreaming up all kinds of stories in my head, but never thought about writing.

Interview with Author – K. Rose
About K. Rose: K. Rose has been a part of the Indie Author Community for years. Getting her start as a reader, her keen eye led to a wonderful career in Alpha/Beta and ARC (Advance Reader Copy) reading. As a joke to her fellow advanced reader colleagues, she created a spoofed blurb and cover for a story and the feedback was so positive that it sparked her to run with it. That stoked a fire that has her racing down a multi-genre freeway with no off-ramp in sight. K. doesn’t write to “market” … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – K. Rose
