Author bio: I have always loved writing for pleasure, and have written fiction to amuse myself ever since I can remember.

I have many interests, but history is probably the main one. Other interests include travel, learning Spanish, cooking and eating!

6-Pack of Humorous Flash Fiction	by Gil C. Schmidt Jan. 31, 2012	$0.99	4850 words	Sample 5%
Author bio: My first written story involved a boy, spear-chucking natives and ended in a dream. It won 1st Prize in the Short Story Contest held for 7th graders. Imagine how bad the others were. Being an avid reader of comic books, SF, mystery and sports stories and thinking that I knew I could do something similar, I took that first story as a push to keep writing. Almost everything I wrote after that I trashed, except for one story my Dad said: "It's good, but you wrote it for yourself, not the reader." From that point on, I knew I could write stories and I learned to write them for more than an audience of one. I've written plenty of stories, some of which were published. I've written seven books, one of which was published with me receiving no credit, as ghost writers know. I've been blogging as Gil The Jenius for several years, but not about writing. I've spent something like 40% of my professional career writing plans, ads, reports, proposals, articles, interviews and scads of other "serious" stuff. And what fiction I did write I kept tucked away, growing older as I focused on other types of writing. Now's the time for it to see the light. Somerset Maugham once said that "If you're waiting to write, you're a waiter, not a writer." Although I still take tips (preferably cash), I'm a writer...fiction now included.

The Honey That Came From The Sea	by Sheena Blackhall Jan. 29, 2012	Free!	90267 words	Read a sample
Author bio: As on Wiki: Sheena Blackhall (b. Sheena Booth Middleton) was born in 1947 in Aberdeen, daughter of the manager of Strachan's Deeside Omnibus Service, Charles Middleton, and his second cousin, farmer's daughter Winifred Booth. She was educated in Aberdeen, but summered in Ballater for many years. Her brother, Ian Middleton, was an accomplished organist and clavichord player, who was the manager of a merchant bank in SÃ£o Paulo, Brazil, where he settled and died.[2] During the typhoid epidemic in Aberdeen of 1964, Blackhall was hospitalized in the town's City Hospital for several weeks.[3] The family transport firm, owned by her aunt, closed as a side effect of this. After a year's study at Gray's School of Art, Blackhall passed a teaching diploma and worked for a time as a special needs teacher, marrying and raising a family of 4 in this period, when she wrote children's stories for BBC Radio Scotland. In 1994 she obtained a Bsc (Hons. Psych) from the Open University, going on to gain an M.Litt with Distinction from Aberdeen University in 2000. From 1998-2003 she was Creative Writing Fellow in Scots at [4] Aberdeen University's [1] Elphinstone Institute and is currently attached to the Institute as an Honorary Research Associate. In 2003 she travelled as part of a group to Washington, showcasing Scotland's culture as a guest of the Smithsonian Institution. In 2007 she was Creative Writing Tutor at the Institute of Irish and Scottish studies at King's College, and two years later was Writer in Residence during Aberdeen University's Word Festival.[5] In April 2009 she was inaugurated as Makar[6] for Aberdeen [7] and the North East of Scotland.[8] She has won the Robert McLellan tassie for best Scots short story 3 times (1989,1990,2001) and the Hugh MacDiarmid trophy for best Scots poem 4 times (1990,2000,2001,2010). In 1992 she shared the Sloane Award with Matthew Fitt from St. Andrew's University. Other prizes include awards from the Doric Festival, the Bennachie Baillies, and from the TMSA for ballad writing and traditional singing. She has twice been shortlisted for the Callum Macdonald Poetry Pamphlet prize (2005 & 2009). In 2007, Lallans Magazine awarded her the William Gilchrist Graham prize for best Scots short story. She has also been shortlisted for the McCash poetry prize. Blackhall worked alongside Aberdeen's well loved 'first lady of drama' Annie Henderson Inglis MBE at Aberdeen Arts Centre, from 2003-2010 delivering weekend storytelling and drama workshops for three to eight year olds.

Ten Tales from the Bookshelf, Volume Two	by Richard Alan Dickson Jan. 28, 2012	$4.99	47747 words	Sample 20%
Author bio: Before becoming a full-time fiction writer, Rick spent nearly twenty-five years in Corporate America. After a hungry stint as a fresh-faced, straight-from-college stockbroker, he set aside the glamour of Wall Street, along with the thousands of friends heâ€™d made during dinner-hour cold calls, for a career as an Accounting Assistant in the Seattle office of a large reinsurance company. Once on the corporate ladder, Rick proved that his many childhood years spent climbing trees hadnâ€™t been a complete waste of time by quickly climbing to the position of department manager. But corporate winds are no less predictable than any other type of wind, and climbing in the wind is never a good idea. Rick suddenly found himself on the wrong side of the country when his company was forced to scale back its operations ten years later. They regrouped in New England. He remained in the Northwest. Waving good-bye to the moving vans as they motored down the road and disappeared into the distance, Rick carefully considered his next career. He became a corporate consultant and ran himself happily ragged for the next nine years. Traveling the country and racking up more frequent flyer miles than even a CPA could conveniently count, Rick helped his clients work through a variety of business issues, including liquidity problems, external reporting matters, process mapping, and workflow concerns. Rickâ€™s final years in Corporate America were spent at one of the major insurance groups. As a VP, Controller, and then an acting CFO, he traveled from one coast to the other putting the lessons heâ€™d learned during his time as a consultant to good use. His current career as a fiction writer takes him to places much further away than any cross-country jetliner ever could, and he seldom needs to leave his writing loft to get there.

Monica focuses on a timeline from when Woe finishes and follows one of Woe's characters through about a week of her life, through her own eyes. The reader gets the joy of experiencing a pregnancy, finding a lost love, a big move, and all of the emotional ups and downs that such a roller coaster will bring. The next book due out is The Dating Doctor Diaries, which chronicles Tripp's career as a dating and seduction coach. He's also working on a new series that's completely different from his previous works. He won't tell us what it's about, other than people will be able to relate to it and will be very comical! He has written several articles for Examiner.com and has been featured in the local magazine News4U. Tripp resides just out of reach of the Bible Belt, with his wife and two kids (and occasionally a pet balloon)!
