WhiteSpace: Episode 1 by Sean Platt WhiteSpace: Episode 1 by Sean Platt May 06, 2012 32499 words Read a sample
Author bio:
I like writing books about life. No matter the genre - straight fiction, paranormal, thriller, children's fiction, science fiction, or memoirs, I like creating characters with deep, rich lives. I'm originally from California, where I ran a flower shop and then later, a preschool with my wife, Cindy, before taking a chance in 2008 to pursue my dream of writing for a living. I gave up security for the chance to share my stories. I launched Collective Inkwell with my writing partner, David Wright (www.davidwwright.com). We had previously ghostwritten books for clients and copy for businesses. Now, we're excited to focus on our own books. I live in Ohio with my wife and two children.

Revived: First Steps by G Johanson Revived: First Steps by G Johanson May 03, 2012 5621 words Sample 30%
Author bio:
I write fiction in the paranormal genre, with all of my stories linked in some way. Immortal witches, spiritualist mediums and street magicians populate my books, along with many other supernatural characters and creatures and even some ‘normal’ people too. Accursed was my first major project that made me think seriously about writing. Originally designed as a prequel to another book I had written to showcase a supporting character, Accursed, developed a life of its own and expanded beyond the novella I had planned to become a trilogy. World War II has always fascinated me dating back to my days studying history at GCSE and A-level and the idea was to place my central character during this tumultuous time and then make his life get even more complicated. By the end of the book the inexperienced GI and medium has had to grow up fast during very difficult circumstances. As a writer I like to form a basic structure for the plot and adapt the details as I write, though I often find that the characters ultimately determine the direction of the book, taking it away from my original ideas as their personalities take shape. At times I could very much relate to the lead character upon his journey 'down the rabbit hole' into a new and bizarre world of witchery and mysticism as some of the twists and turns surprised me too. The original ending for Accursed would not have lent itself to a sequel so I'm pleased I adapted. Lastly, how to categorise my work? I like to consider my material wholly unique, which I don't think anyone would disagree with. The terms paranormal saga or paranormal romance fit as genres, though I think the term I'm most comfortable with would be paranormal pulp. As a connoisseur of the great pulp books of the past I embrace the term because with pulp you know you're going to get a good story told simply and effectively and that's what I hope I've delivered.

Author bio:
Born in England. Now lives in Glasgow, Scotland. Shaun mainly writes dark tales with twists, not necessarily all out horror, and likes to keep his writing spelling to U.K. English, because it's easier for him. He's working on an apocalyptic series called "Snatchers," and it probably won't be available until 2013. Shaun also likes to give out his novels for FREE to his fellow Smashers for the first week, before Premium distribution. As he wants to be read, and is more than happy to make his money on the other distributed book stores, like Apple, Kobo etc. He also self publishes on Amazon. So please spread the word on this, so your friends won't miss out on a free book, as not everyone reads a writers profile. His next novel is called "Black Hour," and is focused on a teacher and a group of students, who are trapped in a school as a massacre is taking place. "Black Hour" will be ready in the Autumn.

Author bio:
Drac Von Stoller's imagination and fascination for the Horror genre began when he was a little boy watching his favorite actors such as Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee and Bela Lugosi on his little black and white television alone in his dark room. Drac would watch these horror movies for hours and build model kits of his favorite characters like Dracula, the Wolfman, Frankenstein and even the Munster's car from his favorite television series. Then as time went on and nothing was left to the imagination in the new horror movies, Drac still loved watching the old movies he so loved as a little boy. Then as Drac became an adult he decided one day that he would write a short story in the horror genre and let some of his friends read it and see what they thought. Drac's first short story was titled "Death in the Wilderness," which would be considered flash fiction but this would be Drac's test to see if he was destined to be an author. Sure enough when people read "Death in the Wilderness" they loved it but couldn't understand why Drac didn't keep on with the story but Drac knew all along that if what they read was so good then Drac has succeeded. This gave Drac the confidence he needed to keep on writing more and more short stories. The rest is history Drac has now written 31 short stories in the course of a 2 year span. Drac doesn't want to write a story unless it moves him in a way that he would want to read his own work and say any horror or ghost fan would not be disappointed.

Shane Alexander Greenhough is an adherent of the philosophy that the writer is a witness and believes that "authors write stories to tell the stories that they cannot write." That is to say that beneath every line of text, behind every character, there is another story hidden and waiting to be discovered by the reader who chooses to look for it.
