Jessica Hayes is the author of Wet 'n' Tumble, a charming, character-driven novel that we really think you'll enjoy. Here's some information about Jessica and her book. Jessica Hayes is an expatriate Canadian living behind the Orange Curtain in Southern California. When not masquerading as a writer, she holds a nodding acquaintanceship with employment as a web, graphics and publications designer and general dogsbody to the powers that be in her workplace. Aside from the lack of rain and discernible change in seasons, she likes SoCal quite a bit, but still doesn't understand how Ugg boots and earmuffs work when it's fifty degrees outside. Though she's never attended any formal post-secondary schooling, Jessica strives to keep her mind from stagnating by trying to learn new subjects and skills as frequently as work, her dwindling free time and the eight-month hockey season will allow. She has a passion for the controversial, enjoys good food, music and company, and is frequently caught daydreaming and making shit up. She can be visited at http://www.jessicahayes.com. The Thirty-ninth Victim, written by Arleen Williams, represents something of a departure for Blue Feather Books. For example, it's a memoir, not a work of fiction. It's such a fascinating, compelling story that we thought you wouldn't want to miss it. Here's a bit more information about Arleen and her book. Arleen Williams has been recording her life in journals since she left home in her late teens. Her wanderings took her to Mexico City, where she completed a bachelor's degree through the University of California while earning a teaching certificate from the National University of Mexico. Arleen has been teaching the English language for over thirty years. She taught international students living in dorms in Seattle, and migratory workers in her living room in Santa Cruz, California. In Caracas, Venezuela, she faked an Irish accent in order to land a position at the British Embassy School, and in Mexico City, her high school students encircled her for her protection during an anti-American protest. In 1984, the disappearance of her youngest sister brought her back to Seattle. Later, she completed a master's degree in education at the University of Washington and accepted the teaching position she still holds at South Seattle Community College. For the past fifteen years, she and her husband have been remodeling a small 1941 home in West Seattle, where they have raised their only daughter. The Thirty-Ninth Victim is her first book.

Maher October 22nd, 2006Added part 14 of To Hold Forever by Carrie Carr Added part 5 of Pathfinders by S. Derkins October 21st, 2006Announcement We are raising money for ASP Films, LLC, which is an independent film production company that myself and my business partner, Kelly Neal, have started. We are a legal entity, recognized by the state of Colorado. Basically our goal is to make films of both my published works, as well as original screenplays. My personal goal has always been to see one of my books on the screen someday, so I decided to make someday now, and do it myself. So, that’s what Kelly and I are doing. The money we raise in this sale and auction will go SOLELY to ASP Films, in the purchase of equipment and talent as we make our films. Our first project is (tentatively) slated to begin spring of 2007. We will start by making short films throughout all of 2007, such as my short story, The Cabby, which will be available on DVD so you guys can see some of these stories come to life on the small screen. The goal right now is, by 2008, we will have started pre-production on ASP Films’ first feature-length production. Eventually we’ll expand into submissions of screenplays by other writers, as well as other genres. The reason I have chosen these titles is they will never be published, nor seen in a hard copy, unless you print them out yourself. Also, in the Crime Anthology, I have included the sequel to Burnin’ Rubber, titled Burnin’ Embers, which has never been posted anywhere before, and will only be available through this anthology. ALL literary items will be bound, with back and cover, and signed by me, including bookmarks. Your kindness and generosity over the years has been amazing for me, and truly inspiring. I have loved writing for you, and will continue to do so, though it will slow down tremendously for awhile. Any sales will help us to reach our goal to get these stories told on screen. I thank you in advance from the bottom of my heart for your business.

Derkins October 2nd, 2006Birdie by onesockbard [alt/classic/complete] As the Xenaverse Turns by Jenny D. Maher [alt/classic/unfinished] Added part 8 of Shaman's Legacy by S. Derkins Added part 4 and part 5 of Waterfalls, Rainbows and Secrets by JM Dragon Added part 9 of Nwyn by PsiDraconis Announcement Hello, all! It seems that the fates haven't come through for us just yet on the financial front. We had hoped that Corrie's latest exhibition would sell enough to pay the bills, but the end of the month has gone, and we still can't pay the rent. Or the other bills, either, but it's the rent that worries me the most. As you know, there has been a delay in getting my books into print, so I can't expect anything from that quarter for a couple of years; and then our beloved city government dropped a big tax bill on our heads (hey, how come the rich people get to wriggle out of this stuff, and we get hit when we don't have two beans to rub together?) which we had to pay, or face some rather draconian collection measures. The upshot is that I'm asking for your help once again. Everyone has been so very generous, and I'm truly, truly grateful for your assistance. The way you've opened your hearts means a lot to me. My current project is an anthology of stories set in the world of Water Witch: The Deceiver's Grave, the novel which I posted in my blog last year. So many readers have asked for a sequel, but a full-fledged novel requires a huge time committment from me. Instead, I decided to write short stories that will answer some of the questions raised by the original novel, such as - how did Bess O'Bedlam and Lettice Speedwell meet? How did Katla learn to sing the runes? How did the slave Hephzibah gain her freedom? And other mysteries solved, other back stories fleshed out. I will likely be offering this as a self-published volume - first as an ebook, and perhaps also in another format to be determined. Only a couple of these stories will be put on-line; the rest will only be available in the ebook. Having said that, as a token of my deepest appreciation, anyone who helps us out will receive a story from the anthology - titled 'Et in Arcadia Ego' this is the tale of how Bess O'Bedlam's mother ended up in a London madhouse. Familiarity with Water Witch: The Deceiver's Grave will help, but the story should stand alone sufficiently for those who haven't read the original novel. This particular story will never be available on-line (although I will be putting a couple of other stories into my Library as a preview later in the year). Any assistance you can give will be gratefully accepted, and I bless you for it. There is a PayPal link on my Library page at http://www.corrieweb.nl/library.htm Or you could go to PayPal directly: http://www.paypal.com My account is listed under wynna1@yahoo.com Thank you again for your help. My gratitude knows no bounds. Nene Adams |
