Not who everyone thinks she is.
The product of someone’s imagination.
The end result of a lifetime wishing to get out.
Do not buy the lie.
If you live in fear, you give up freedom.
Taking the risk and making the leap.
Too much of anything is a bad thing.
Innuendo floating on the mist that rises above the water.
Walk away and leave it all behind.
Telling the story that haunts a fantasy.
Catching a dream.
She does not exist.

Interview with Author – Linda S Rice

Interview with Author – Linda S Rice

As a child, I was mesmerized by storytellers and my mother always made sure I had a supply of books close at hand while I was growing up. Sitting on her lap and listening to her read to me is one of my earliest memories. I remember drawing pictures and then making up stories to go with them, and as I got older, my stories became longer and more fanciful. At age ten, I began to write them down, and when I was twelve, I wrote my first “book,” all handwritten. I wrote during rainy days in gym class when we all had to stay in the locker room and sit on benches. I had a small cult following of friends who waited for me to finish each page which I would then pass down the row. When I got a typewriter for my thirteenth birthday, I typed up my “masterpiece” and put it in a 3-ring binder then hid it away. The story was actually quite silly. Having a typewriter, however, made it possible for me to write even more, which I did on almost a daily basis.
But, as happens to many young, aspiring writers, reality grabbed me and when I graduated from high school and headed to college then into the workforce, the dream of becoming an author washed away. It wasn’t until I turned 62 and experienced my 3rd job layoff that I decided to try and make my writing dream come true.
Writing has since become an addiction to me, and I’m finding that ideas for numerous scenarios and characters keep flooding my brain, with the characters screaming, “Write about me! Write about me!”
And, that’s what I intend to do.

Interview with Author – Ava K Michaels

Interview with Author – Ava K Michaels

New York Times & USA Today Bestselling Author, Ava K Michaels lives in Bonnie Scotland, spending her time with family, pets, and writing. Always dreaming of the next time she can get away from the dreary weather to some sunshine. She hates rain and snow … which is most days in Scotland … hence her dreaming of her next vacation. When she’s not thinking of flying away on holiday, she’s writing … everything from hot Alpha shifters, to smoking hot Vampires, with Dragons, Angels, and everything else her imagination can come up with.
She has a weakness for chocolate (who hasn’t) and has been known to scavenge for her favorite delights in moments of weakness. Her writing companions, who keep her company every day, are Luna, her German Shepherd, and Jinx, a black Lab. She’d be lost without them at her feet, even if they interrupt her, sometimes at the most inopportune times.

Ava took up writing later in life and is always thinking of the next story to indulge herself in. She loves reading, although doesn’t get a lot of time to do so now, Rosé wine … and those precious trips to the sun. She adores her homeland with a passion, but wishes she could pick it up and place it down somewhere hot!

She writes under A K Michaels and Ava K Michaels and is also CEO of a small publishing company, Hot Box Publishing, in partnership with Bella Roccaforte, which specializes in publication of anthologies.
