Interview with Author – Clive Warner
About Clive Warner: Writing is my passion, but I began as a fanatical reader. Like most of my (pre Internet) generation, books came before movies, TV, and even radio. And so our world desires were fed by our imaginations and moulded by the books we read, and this imaginative fire is what I want to read, and what I want to write - for you. I've lived and worked in so many different parts of the world that you're as likely to find yourself in Nigeria or Yemen, or 300 years in the … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – Clive Warner
Fail to the Chief by W. T. Fallon
After years of emceeing insipid singing competitions, TV personality Bryan Seafoam can't wait to host "American President," the world's first reality show to elect a country's Chief Executive. It's the chance he's waited a lifetime for--an opportunity to be a real journalist, unearthing skeletons and playing hardball with the top ten candidates. But it doesn't take long for the contestants to start digging up dirt of their own and throwing it back at him--literally, in the case of billionaire … [Read more...] about Fail to the Chief by W. T. Fallon
Interview with Author – Mary Magdalene
About Mary Magdalene: Mary Magdalene lives with her husband and six cats in Woody Creek, Colorado. When she's not writing, she enjoys farmers markets and complicated Starbucks orders. What inspires you to write? I know that there is "nothing new under the sun" but I enjoy finding unusual or bizarre ways to look at commonplace ideas. Even if we don't believe in His divinity, we all know the story of Jesus Christ. We know it so well we can recite His words, misappropriate them, and say them … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – Mary Magdalene

Interview with Author – Jo Roderick
About Jo Roderick: Jo Roderick was born in 1969 and is believed to be human — although, there is no conclusive evidence! Interpreting and analysing the world around, the author never quite grew up.

Jo is an architect, amongst other things, and currently resides in Cape Town, South Africa. Toffee, the … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – Jo Roderick

About John Rachel: John Rachel has a B.A. in Philosophy, has traveled extensively, been a songwriter and music producer, and is a bipolar humanist.

At first as he bounced … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – John Rachel
