Tell us something about your book. The basics: what’s it about?

Sebastien LeonardA Draemorian Chronicle begins with a Foreword which introduces the primary narrator, Sorrownote, and the Prologue introduces the advent of the civilizations as a single tribe who are segregated over conflicted ideals. It continues as a journal written by the primary narrator who travels the land and meets with representatives of the nations. Those representatives then document 200 years of history which shed light on the development of each respective civilization. Sorrownote writes his story by preceding each of these historical narratives with his own […]

An Interview With Author P. Wish

IMG_5767__1429614993_130.88.99.220Tell us something about your book. The basics: what’s it about?

My Life in 3 Colours is a picture book for adults. It is about Ella, a young girl who represents the child in all of us. The book follows Ella’s journey as she discovers the essence of being unique. It is a work that inspires all of us to bring out our inner child. I personally illustrated the book to make sure the illustrations were consistent with my idea and vision. The book is illustrated in a clumsy style so that everyone can relate to it and not be […]

Our book, “Elliptical: The Music of Meshell Ndegeocello,” explores multi-Grammy nominated artist Meshell Ndegeocello, one of the most fascinating and creative figures in contemporary music. She’s an artist who defies labels and music genres, continually inspiring many with her profound vision.

An Interview With Author Julian Boote

JULIAN BOOTETell us something about your book, EXIT. The basics: what’s it about?

Imagine you’re lost; trapped in a maze of a place that you do not know.  It’s pitch dark, and you’re fumbling around in the blackness, hoping to find a way out.  Now imagine that in that blackness, either ahead of you, or behind you – someone is hunting you… with murder in mind.

That’s essentially the premise of EXIT.  Couched within a heist-gone-wrong, survivalist thriller, I take the reader into that realm of claustrophobic, fear-fuelled paranoia; following our heroine, Kim Sawyer, a reformed thief trying to […]
