Rosemarie Rinehart | 4 comments My second novel in the Runaways series is now available.

http://www.bookstrand.com/book/tame-m...

Cristabelle Howard left the glittering world of her birth long ago. Life on the road with her sister, beloved animals, and the circus was her haven. However, there was one face from her past which never left her, one who would always find her no matter how far she traveled.

Henry Wakefield, her first love, handsome as he is wealthy, forever seeks her hand. But just as her walls begin to crack, a note of ransom is left on her doorstep. As their liaisons are threatened to be revealed, Henry and Cristabelle are forced to confront their tumultuous relationship and save one another from ruin.

A struggle for dominance, an old struggle never settled between them, turns on its head as they journey to find the culprit. As they run, the lovers learn the delight of letting go to the pleasure of submission, all the while indulging in their power over one another, both in the bedroom, and in their hearts.

Thru this book, I've tried to throw light on the real picture of lopsided modern Indian society especially when it comes to marriages. These days online matrimony portals are becoming very popular for Indian people to find their perfect matches, but a very few actually are aware of the the real picture and challenges a girl faces in these portals. I have tried to showcase that in a lighthearted way with the elements of wit, humor, love and sarcasm in my story!

Michelle D.  Johnson | 2 comments Chapter 4: A Book as A Resume

If you’re wondering what would impress an employer more than a well written resume, have you considered a book? Think about it, if you were to show up to your potential employer and interview for a job, which do you think you would rather have, a list of relevant experiences that everyone else who’s applying for the job will have, or a unique fact about you that not only highlights your skills or knowledge, but also puts you ahead of the crowd in terms of achievement?
Writing a book intentionally as a resume piece isn’t a bad idea, especially if you’re in a very competitive field where you’ll have to do everything in your power to get ahead of the curve. So how exactly can you present a book as a resume? It’s easier than you think!
The first thing that an employer is looking for when evaluating a prospective employee is what makes them stand out. Think about it, most of the time when you’re applying for a job, especially one that’s competitive, you will be competing against many others who more or less have the same qualifications as you do. So with that in mind, what would stand out more than a book?
So am I saying that if you write a book, you’ll get the job you’ve always dreamed of? Not necessarily, but what I am proposing to you is that there is immense value to be had in having a book to your name, especially in the professional world. It takes time, energy and discipline to make a good book, so the very idea of you having written one would quickly catch any employers eye.
Even if you aren’t terribly interested in writing as a career, the benefits of having your own book can still get you ahead in your respective field. Interested? I hope so!
So assuming that you were approaching the idea of writing a book purely for resume purposes what would the steps be for such an undertaking? Let’s take a look.

Resume Book Writing Step 1: Relevancy
Unlike other styles of book writing, this one is actually designed to for the person reading the book as opposed to your own style or story. While it is still extremely valuable to have a personal story to share or a concept that you want to get across, you must ask the question about how relevant your work will be to a potential employer.
For example, if you work in the high powered corporate world of finance, a book on finance would serve you incredibly well as opposed to a book on say, cooking. By focusing on choosing a style of book that would be popular with your prospective employer, you are increasing your chances of being noticed. The more relevant your work is to your employment situation, the better it is going to look on your resume. So if you are interested in writing a book purely to improve your resume, then I would greatly encourage you to focus on writing in the most relevant field possible.
It might help for you to imagine what your potential employer would read personally. If the book concept is strong enough to catch their interest, it’s strong enough to put you on their radar. So if your potential employer would respond incredibly well to a book on Emergent Technologies, write on that subject.
It might not necessarily be the most passionate project you have, but writing a book as a resume piece is more about transferring the passion that you have for your career field into the book you are making!

Resume Book Writing Step 2: Quality
Once you’ve decided to write on your chosen topic, it is of the utmost importance that your work is of the highest quality that you can muster. You might not need to have the best book in the world, but you should strive to create something that would be able to attest to your prowess as an employee and demonstrate your knowledge in that field.
Remember, we’re looking at getting you a job here, so treat your book as seriously as you would treat a resume. You wouldn’t send in a resume with errors, inaccuracies and rambling incoherence would you? Not at all! So, as you build up your book, try to keep the end goal in mind so you can write with clarity and efficiency.
If you aren’t a writer by nature or you find the technical aspect of writing daunting, don’t’ be afraid to look for extra help. Hiring an editor or an assistant can greatly improve your ability to make that book. And if you’re serious about getting into that job, it can be a good investment.

Resume Book Writing Step 3: Authority
Just like we talked about writing a book for building credibility in your field, you should have the goal of billing yourself as an authority on the subject matter at hand. Remember, you aren’t just trying to write a book for fun here, we’re trying to accomplish an important task of being credible enough to win you a job. This means you’re going to have to go that extra mile in focusing on building up the authority on what you are writing.
Just as we discussed earlier, this doesn’t involve making things up, but rather it involves working to establish new patterns of thought, research or methodology that would cause you to stick out in a sea of other books. Being able to say “oh yeah I wrote a book about that” and being able to back it up with a good, strong book that is informative and accurate will put you miles ahead of your competition.

Resume Book Writing Step 4: Visibility
This is an important step that should not be skipped if you’re trying to put together a book that will catch your employers eye. Visibility means that your book has some level of exposure to the world. It is easy enough to throw something up on Amazon and point to your book that has neither sales nor reviews and say “check out my amazing book.” But, when scrutinized, it will become quite apparent that your book isn’t much of a hit.
While you don’t have to write the next bestseller, your book should have the intentions of being marketable and saleable so that others can derive value from it. You should also make a point to try and make it as visible as possible, putting in energy to market the work. This is not necessarily for the monetary aspect of it, but to give it the credibility that it will need. The more visible a book is to your employer, the more serious it is going to look. Having even a handful of reviews (organically written by the way) can give your book more visibility. Never buy reviews, it’s unethical and unprofessional!
Consider using your expertise to contribute as a guest blogger as well. Use your book as a platform to gain some authority and credibility in your subject field and eventually your book will have enough buzz around it to where a Google search will reveal that it wasn’t just thrown up overnight to look impressive.

Writing a book as a resume can be an exciting and fun endeavor, so try to enjoy the experience! What you don’t want to do is put undue pressure on yourself as you write. Never think “If this book isn’t perfect, I’ll never get a job!” instead relax and have fun with what you’re doing. Writing a book can have its hard moments, for sure, but it doesn’t need to be stressful at all! Don’t let the pressure of performance get you down, remember, your work is here to serve you!

Bernard Boley (bernard_boley) | 29 comments A powerful and mind-blowing historical drama fiction about Jack The Ripper

After many years spent writing his novel in the United States, Canada and Mexico, my first novel is now available on Amazon under the title 'My Ripper Hunting Days'. It's offered in e-book and 5X8 paperback versions.

The story not only involves an actual major Ripper suspect, the American named Francis Tumblety, but also other well known persons back then such as Scotland Yard's Inspector Frederick Abberline, Whitechapel H-Division, Sergeant William Thick, Vigilante Committee's president, George Lusk, and a crook named Le Grand. All reveal themselves exactly as
historical data has presented them, but it's as if the author knew them personally.

The story revolves around a diary found in Canada where its author, Woodrow Reily, writes down his pursuit of the Ripper. If you have enjoyed Agatha Christie's 'Murder on the Orient Express', where Hercule Poirot resolves the crime in the last minutes, prepare yourself for an even more thrilling and mind-blowing ending by reading 'My Ripper Hunting Days'.

It's a bit different from the norm - it is written in Jane Austen's beloved Omniscient POV...but there's no head-hopping or direct author speak. It's a true love story - but I think you'll be surprised by some of the plot twists and not all characters end up happy. Hope you enjoy!! Please leave me a review if you can. :)

Hunter stopped just shy of the cobblestone path. He wrapped his arms around me. “Not much longer,” he whispered. “You won’t be confined to the property.”
“And why is that?” I asked.
“Honeymoon, remember?”
Jessica’s longtime dream had always been to visit the places she had read about in books. Knowing demons surrounded the protected grounds, it wasn’t worth another battle to leave the swamp. But Hunter’s allusion of the honeymoon, reminds her of Davior’s recent warning to never leave the property.

Hatred stirs up conflicts, but love covers all offenses.

Ada Soto (adamariasoto) | 1 comments His Quiet Agent by Ada Maria Soto His Quiet Agent
Arthur Drams works for a secret government security agency, but all he really does is spend his days in a cubical writing reports no one reads. After getting another “lateral promotion” by a supervisor who barely remembers his name, it’s suggested that Arthur try to ‘make friends’ and ‘get noticed’ in order to move up the ladder. It’s like high school all over again: his attempts to be friendly come across as awkward and creepy, and no one wants to sit at the same table with him at lunch. In a last-ditch attempt to be seen as friendly and outgoing, he decides to make friends with The Alien, aka Agent Martin Grove, known for his strange eating habits, unusual reading choices, and the fact that no one has spoken to him in three years.

Starting with a short, surprisingly interesting conversation on sociology books, Arthur slowly begins to chip away at The Alien’s walls using home-cooked meals to lure the secretive agent out of his abrasive shell. Except Martin just might be something closer to an actual secret agent than paper-pusher Arthur is, and it might be more than hearts at risk when something more than friendship begins to develop.

Please note this book has a Heat Rating of zero.

Drew Brumbaugh has been released and will be on sale for a limited time for 99 cents or free through Kindle Unlimited. The book is the second in a pending trilogy but can be read as a stand alone.

Rival demons control the lands west of the Monolith Mountains. As long as they quarrel among themselves, those living east of the mountains remain safe. But that is destined to change because of a prophecy that claims a child will be born who will unite the demons and bring destruction to the east. Gant and his friends are the only ones who can prevent the catastrophe. Should they kill the child? Resolving this moral dilemma involves a perilous undertaking that places the world in jeopardy. While Child of Evil begins a few years after the end of “Fall of the Western Kings” it can be read as a stand alone.

C.E. Gee | 182 comments A private detective named Russ Dymond who is searching for a missing person on Mars provides the gist of this story.

“Dymond in the Rough” by C.E. Gee takes place in the Martian City of Bradbury.

Those of you who remember the hippy-dippy daze of the late 1960’s might get a chuckle out of the Martian neighborhood where the search takes place.

If you’re into “souls or spirits” there’s much about such in this story.

The propulsion system that drives the commercial spaceship Russ uses in his trip to Mars from Earth utilizes Einstein’s theory of relativity. Those of you of a technical mindset should find the propulsion system interesting.

The technique used by Russ to find the missing person should educate persons interested in detectives and their methods.

Enjoy!

As he, his cynical partner Ron Guidry, and new deputy Cicely “Kit” Kittredge dig into what at first appears to be insurance fraud, they uncover something “unholy” near a small creek called Devil’s Run. While they search for a motive, sadistic murder burns its way through Hawthorn County, eliminating their suspects.

Devil’s Run is a stand-alone Mystery and Thriller (#12) in the Richard Carter series. (June, 2017)

Leslie O'Kane (goodreadscomleslie_okane) | 4 comments Take a zany road trip to Branson, Missouri, with Leslie O’Kane’s HOW MY BOOK CLUB GOT ARRESTED as a group of book lovers get involved in one story too many!

A cross-country road trip with the Second Saturday Book Club goes afoul when the four women meet the author of a classic, beloved children’s book at the Ball of Twine in Cawker, Kansas, and offer her a ride to Branson, Missouri. They are on their way to watch their youngest book-club member star in a musical revue with her longtime boyfriend. From the moment they meet author Eugena Crowder, not a single item on their itinerary goes according to plan—not the Dolly Parton Dixie Stampede, the Branson Ghost Tour, the Rockin’ Oldies Show, the Hypnotist Dinner Show, not even their monthly book discussion. All hope seems truly lost when their final destination—a visit to the Laura Ingalls Wilder Museum—is replaced by a stint at the Branson jailhouse! Can their long history together of dissecting plots and analyzing characters help them escape criminal prosecution?

Averil Reisman | 3 comments Shadows and Masks Book 1 of The Chessmen series, is currently available for pre-order with a release date of Aug. 1, 2017

A desperate woman. A man with a secret. An undeniable passion...

Scientist Emmeline Griffith needs a husband—just long enough to prevent the loss of her inheritance. The arrangement will be all business…but she didn’t count on her attraction to the virile detective who steps into the role.

Private investigator Bartholomew Turner thought he had his secret demons under control. But when a marriage-in-name-only turns into something far more enduring, he must confront both his past and the danger that’s stalking Emmie in order to claim the woman he loves.

An American-set late Victorian romance, Shadows and Masks is a steamy, emotional story of a strong heroine and the flawed hero who loves her. Heat level--sensual with some graphic sex scenes. Readers interested in sweet romance--this isn't it.

"We train ourselves all through our life to waste energy following our inner narratives. We are often unconsciously driven by our fears, worries and fantasies. We interpret, speculate, and project the words, thoughts and emotions around us. We should enter a space of awareness of our present moment with no emotional filters, no regrets of the past or hopes for the future, with no daydreaming and no nightmares..."
