Author bio:
Cole J. Freeman never dreamed of being an author. Instead, Cole has been blessed with an overactive imagination and a love of research that naturally led to publishing entertaining yet believable stories. Coming up with ideas to write about is not the problem for Cole; it is finding the time to write them. Cole has worked many professions including manual labor and law enforcement, highly technical jobs such as computer networking, and has even entered into the space industry. This breadth of experience helps Cole to relate to the feelings of the everyday person while understanding how things work in a large scale. Cole applies this experience to his writing and believes that writing should be sincere, honest, and believable. Cole is married and has six children. In addition to writing, he is currently (finally) finishing up his degree in Space Studies while working full-time.

Author bio:
Growing up during the 1940’s and 1950’s, in the Choctaw (McCurtain and Choctaw Counties) and Creek Indian (Okmulgee County) Nations of Oklahoma, with the spoken languages of Choctaw, Ojibwa, Spanish and English was an asset in my knowledge of story telling. A reporter for the McCurtain County Gazette told me, “Write down the stories and the things you have done in life for some day they would be useful in keeping the tales of the old folks alive after we all are gone.” Working various jobs from cowboy and farmer to holding, the positions of Foreman of a bridge gang, with the Saint Louis San Francisco, Railroad and Command Sergeant Major in the Army, gave me the opportunity to meet a wide variety of people. Medically discharged from the military, I did construction work until finally being forced to retire completely because of my health. Moving near Russellville Alabama because my children came to this area to work and raise my grand-children. Now I live and play near the Crooked Oak community near seven of my grand-children. The older three grand-children have read all but four of my novels so there is not sexual intent or as much violence as on the evening news. I have written short stories, young adult books, free lance magazine articles, articles for several news papers and write novels about the tales of the old folks when I was growing up. In addition, to the twenty Western novels, I have written two mysteries of modern day times.

After retiring from 20 years as a horse trainer, breeder, and judge I somehow became a writer. Readers will find inspiration and practical concepts in most everything I do, from Twitter to the 'real' books. My larger purpose is to provide encouragement for those who love Jesus Christ and those who love horses. Once a marketing and business consultant, then a horse pro, I found that truth is truth no matter what the relationship - and the only things in life that really matter are somehow connected to a relationship.

Author bio:
Daron Fraley was born in Powell, Wyoming, but doesn’t consider himself a cowboy. Living in France for a couple of years provided him the opportunity to hone his cooking skills and to become addicted to good food and chocolate. Apart from his loving family, teaching and writing are his two most favorite things in the world. A classic computer geek, he still likes to fish and camp, makes a mean apple or pumpkin pie from scratch, and once fixed a gas clothes dryer using photocopier parts. With all of his interests in music, art, the sciences, and religion (especially religion), he would have been quite comfortable living during the Renaissance. Having toured chilly castles while in France, he is glad he didn’t live during that time. “The Thorn” is his first novel. After ten total years in the wonderful state of Indiana, Daron, his wife Jennifer, and their six children once again live in the beautiful Rockies, close to friends and family in Wyoming and Utah.

Author bio:
I am a dumbass, genius, heterosexual, paranoid, geeky, quirky, dreamy, toasty, born again, ass-kickin', cocky sonofabitch who loves the sound of his own voice. I don't claim to be the greatest writer, singer, guitarist, pianist or womanizer ever created by God's callused fingers but I do love a good story. You're here because you love a good story too. Most of my stories are a compiling of old ideas and story lines slapped together with duct tape to create something unstable, entertaining and unique. You're either going to hate me or love me. I hope for the latter.

Hi! I'm K.C. May. Thanks for visiting my Smashwords page. I grew up in the mid-western USA and in Hawaii, and earned a B.A. in Russian from Florida State University. After a year in Taiwan teaching English and studying Mandarin Chinese, I lived in the Arizona desert where I founded a Rottweiler rescue organization, studied karate, went backpacking, tried sky-diving, did some downhill skiing, got a couple motorcycles, wrote software, and spent time on the shooting range. In 2010, I retreated to cooler, greener Georgia. I earn my living as a full-time writer. My first novel, The Kinshield Legacy, was initially published in hard-cover in 2005. Now it's available as an eBook and in paperback. I had a blast writing it, and I'm working on a sequel and a science fiction novel. I hope you enjoy the story!

Author bio:
Escritor tempranamente laureado (premio U.N.S.L, 1974) nacido en Argentina, durante largos años estuvo al margen de la actividad literaria, hasta comenzar este siglo con una producción copiosa, recuperándose así de silencios pasados. Le gusta leer, los perros y una buena copa de vino -además de su familia y amigos. Actualmente comparte su tiempo de escritor con la catación de cafés especiales. La voz del autor bordea los límites entre la poesía, el micro ensayo y el relato breve. Con humor, ironía o pasión, lo que no intenta es enseñar algo. Provocar a lo más. Su registro coloquial, hace recordar una conversación entre amigos, en la que despliega un estilo propio con lejanos acentos rioplatenses. Early prize-winning writer (prize U.N.S.L, 1974) born in Argentina, during many years standing aside from literary activity, began this century with a copious production and is recovering from past silences. He likes to read, loves dogs and a good glass of wine -in addition to his family and friends. At present, he spends his time writing and cupping specialty coffees. The author’s voice skirts the limits of poetry, brief tales, and micro essays. With humor, irony or passion, he does not intend to teach anything; just provoke at most. His colloquial register recalls a conversation among friends, deploying a unique style, with distant accents of the River Plate region.

My vocation is as a Sr. Systems Analyst for a large company in the United States. During my off hours, I spend them as the Staff Photographer for the magazine 'What's Hot Tampa Bay' and also enjoy writing short stories. This is my first novel. As a photographer, I have had the priviliage of being invited to capture the Canadian Olympic team during their team trials prior to Beijing and the boat 'Earthrace' during it's world attempt to break the record circumnavigating the globe. This boat later became 'Aby Gil' and was sunk by the Japanese during it's use in the the continuing battle of Whale Wars. Many of my photographs have appeared in hundreds of magazines, newspapers and books around the world. With regards to my writing experience, I wrote a monthly column for the publication 'SouthWinds' which was a sailing magazine. My stories have also appeared in many different publications. I have been married to my wife Cathy for over 30 years and have two sons and one golden retriever named Maggie. I am currently working on the sequel to 'Declaration of Surrender' and will hopefully have it ready for publication by January 2010.
