Helium3 by Nick Travers Helium3 by Nick Travers May 16, 2008 22387 words Read a sample
Author bio:
Nick wanted to be that mystical figure, an author, from almost the very first book he read. As a child his mind constantly buzzed with characters and adventures, fed by an insatiable appetite for stories. Unfortunately, a childhood tramping the wilds of Dartmoor (in the UK), the joys of playing jazz trombone, and generally having a blast, left little time for serious writing as he grew up. Later, an education in science and the demands of holding down a career again pushed writing to one side. Then he hit forty, and realised his imagination had never grown up. Finally, with a second-hand laptop off e-bay Nick embarked on the second most thrilling adventure of his life: writing a novel. Nick has migrated north since his childhood, swapping the wilds of Dartmoor for the tranquility of the New Forrest (Hampshire, UK). He is enjoying the adventure of having a family (the greatest adventure of his life)with three lively daughters, who all enjoy reading as much as he does. In addition to writing, Nick lists his hobbies as gardening (the variety that employs a large pair of choppers and requires him to sit around admiring the view), swimming (because it frees his mind and releases his imagination), juggling (because he can), and one day he would like to learn to play the piano (because the trombone really isn’t a solo instrument). Visit Nick's blog at www.NickTravers.com to catch up on current activity, articles about writing, and discount codes for his books.

Author bio:
In my forty something years I have generated a very broad set of experiences and interests, but through it all, I have always read. It seems that at times it is harder to find books that enthrall me, although admittedly I am behind on my reading, so I decided to start writing the kind of stories I'd want to read. I have always had stories in my head, they intrude at the strangest times. At some point, I discovered that when I took the time to write them down, more stories kept pouring out. There are so many ideas I have, it seems like there won't be enough time to get to them all. I'm starting with one story, in one particular style. But other stories, in different styles are coming. Stay tuned. My goal in writing is above all to entertain. Thank you in advance for giving me that opportunity.

Author bio:
"Hundreds of years ago in a land ravaged by fierce clans, where only the strongest survive...a Legend of the People was born. From the historic tales of King Arthur comes a raw, riveting and passionate series of novels by author L.A. Wilson, who breathes fresh new life into this spell-binding story. Told in first-person by Bedwyr...the person closest to Arthur's heart...this story is an amazing journey into the past, where social order was kept by the sword, loyalty and the desire to be free. Free to survive, free to live, and free to love without restraint. Through Wilson's powerful story-telling...a whole dramatic world of love, hatred, war, betrayal and loss is created and viewed through the exotic and passionate eyes of ‘The Fox.' From the first book 'The Silurian: The Fox and the Bear," to the tenth installment, "The Sons of Avalon," this work is destined to become a literary classic, defining a new age of reading and establishing a new genre."

My books are aimed at broadening the imaginations of children eg mini adults - I have only uploaded a few pages so far of one of my books - more will go up shortly - I started writing for my 2 young children after my divorce - it was a way of keeping in touch with them - I created hardcopy versions and gave them away to my kids and it has grown from there - I used to also visit schools and read to the children - to see the delight on their faces is fantastic - you can almost feel their imaginations growing, expanding as you read to them - this went on for years until now my children have now grown into adults and have children of their own - Now is the time to venture into the world of having my books published in e-book format - If it works - great - if it doesnt - its not a problem - I have written dozens of childrens books - my genre being light hearted and comical although I have also written some books aimed at the 'thriller' market - hopefully the new world of ebooks will encourage more writers to get out there and get creative - well done Smashwords and keep up the good work -kind regards Christopher

The Son of Man by CW Johnson The Son of Man by CW Johnson Feb. 08, 2009 135729 words Read a sample
Author bio:
In the year 1997 I was a traveling musician. 1997 was the year my travels took me to an ancient town in Germany called Rothenberg… more specifically, the Cathedral of the Holy Blood Altar. It was there I witnessed with my own eyes a very interesting relic; a capsule said to contain three drops of Christ’s blood. This immediately piqued my imagination. What would happen if they actually found DNA within the capsule and cross-matched it with tissue found on the Shroud of Turin? What if it matched? This little flight of fantasy was the beginning of a journey that took me through dozens of false starts, years of writing and eventually through the never-ending editing process. The tale that emerged was as much a surprise to me as to anyone. It was very much like a story breaking free and escaping from my computer. I sincerely hope that you will find my novel entertaining and that you will continue the journey on through the next two books in the series. CW Johnson
