Ross Eberle is the creator of the Sky Fighters Novella Series! He was born in New Jersey and grew up in Philadelphia before moving down to Florida in the summer of 2003. His grandfather was once a famous Big Band singer. His name was Ray Eberle. If you'd like to know more about him (As well as the author's Mom, grandmoms, aunts, and uncles), you can find all the details on his article at Wikipedia right here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Eberle

The concept of the Sky Fighters first came to Mr. Eberle during a class project where students had to color in a totem pole. Back then, he was only 7 years old. And even though the teachers would not allow him to take part in the class project, seeing one of the animals carved into the totem pole drawing gave him the inspiration to create special alien creatures which resembled foxes. They were multicolored and had square-shaped ears. These were known as Houndy Crunchers.

Soon thereafter, he 'bagged' a bag of Home Girls potato chips as part of a class grab bag simply by selecting a number from 1 to 10. He selected number 5 and won the chips. The chips had an interesting picture of the Home Girls on them. While out shopping with his Mom, this gave Mr. Eberle the idea to bestow superpowers to the Home Girls and make them Humanistic Sky Fighters. The name Sky Fighters did not come to him until years later, however. By the time it did so, their appearance had advanced and included such perks as wire-like tentacles on the sides of their bodies. These are called Wickwires, and can be extended and retracted according to their Willpower.

As you read Mr. Eberle's novellas, you will notice the people who are Sky Fighters have the ability to change their size, essentially making themselves 200 feet or taller or 7 inches or smaller. They also have magical powers, including Elemental Attacks, Teleportation, Invisibility, Summoning, and once they're strong enough, they grow a set of wings and are able to fly! He decided to make the first half of his books novella-length because of the way he has the plot set up. The storyline has eight parts to it with each part depicting the events of a particular year or years. There may even be a ninth installment of the series in the works!

If you've come this far in reading Mr. Eberle's biography, then hats off to you! He hopes you love reading his Novella Series as much as he loves to read in general. ...more

“Suddenly, two 3D animated figures materialized out of thin air. One of them resembled a young, Native American woman in her 20's. The other resembled a knight in shining armour from the 1500's. Both characters stood about 30 feet tall. Just then, a booming voice resounded from the UFO:
Well, well! If it isn't the Sky Fighters, and their Houndy Crunchers cohorts! Your pathetic attempts to stop me from taking over this planet are all in vain! Now come forth and bow to your new masters; two of my strongest henchmen! MU-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!”

“To anyone who knows me well enough, I'm not a practitioner of incest. I don't even drink, smoke, or do any form of street-drugs. And yet, here, online, are a couple of NT [neurotypical] cattle, flapping their yaps about a self-published Indie-author they know NOTHING about. You see, I think the problem with today's NT-cattle society and most of their cohorts can effectively be boiled down to three things... too many street drugs, alcohol, and/or tobacco products, too much technology, smart or not, and lastly, too much incest. Just in case I wasn't being clear about the subject of KARMA before, then all you haters better WATCH OUT!!!!! Because if you feel so content to do or say something bad about or to someone else, then sooner or later, your Karma WILL bounce back to you. And it will bite you REAL HARD in the backside. And if this doesn't happen to any haters of ME, PERSONALLY, then I will be the harbinger of YOUR KARMA!!!”
