Sadie Sucks Her Stepdaddy	by Gerald Dawson Feb. 03, 2012	You set the price!	8830 words	Sample 25%
Author bio: I am an older guy with a passion for reading and writing. I found this site because I now have a nook to read and this site allows easy downloads of books and stories within my likes. I am driven by what I call my muse to create images with words. I write mostly of romance and sensuality, but that oft includes steamy sexual scenes as well which I pride myself in doing with fully engorged detail. I can hope that someone or ones will read my offerings as they are published here, I will refer my friends and that should take care of a few thousand readers who have enjoyed my stories for years on free post sites. Good day and happy reading to all, and as a friend often tells me, "follow your pen for it knows what lies within the soul of your muse." I can only hope to see reviews of my works, for I cannot know how best to satisfy the readers of wondrous erotic pleasures unless I feel the pulse of the readers. My thanks in advance to all who take the time to respond to that need.

New Universe: Tronconia	by David Majlak Jan. 26, 2012	You set the price!	58194 words	Sample 20%
Author bio: I enjoy putting custom computers together, video games, my mom, my wife, my dog, and learning useful information. I'm very good with accomplishing tasks despite not having the proper tools for the job. I do not like bees, spiders touching me, poison ivy, hearing Congress making illogical decisions, when my wife yells at me, when my mom yells at me, when my dog pees inside on the carpet, or when my computer crashes on me. I have a great sense of humor, a fine amount of wit, and use sarcasm very well. I also despise reality TV shows because my wife dominates the TV with them. I am friendly, understanding, and quite hospitable. I've never been in a fistfight, an accident, or on a plane. I'm also an expecting father. I'm also an expecting father a hair away from poverty. If I wasn't, I would most likely have a physical copy of my own books :) I wish I had the money to perform beneficial works to society for nothing in return, I wish I could paint and read and study and meditate all day, and I wish I could share the more important aspects of life with everyone.

The Ouijiers	by Matthew Wayne Jan. 23, 2012	You set the price!	86384 words	Sample 20%
Author bio: I was born the 6th of 8 children to a high school English teacher and a financial planner. I inherited a love of reading and literature from my father and was a voracious reader when I was a child. In high school I discovered I had a penchant for the stage and fell in love with acting. Unfortunately I was never able to seriously pursue an acting career. I did, however, graduate from the University of Illinois with a BA in Rhetoric in 1984. I sat upon the skills I learned and did nothing with them until about the age of 30 when I decided if I wanted to become a successful writer I needed to write something. I have written several novels in the horror and fantasy genres. The Edge of Sanity is the first that I have self published as the established publishers don't seem to know good writing when they see it. I will soon be releasing other titles under this name and other pen names. Oh, the picture of me that you see on this page is a picture of me in partial makeup for a movie called Chartarum where I play a zombie and a patriot type guy who gets shot in the head by a government sniper.

The Ark of the Covenant Operations Manual	by Christopher Jordan Jan. 06, 2012	You set the price!	30939 words	Sample 20%
Author bio: Christopher Jordan was born in London and studied Chemical Physics at Sussex University, under the guidance of Sir Harold Kroto. He played a part in manually analyzing the early data from the microwave telescopes, eventually identifying an alcohol in interstellar gas clouds. These tasks were being automated by computers, which were doing the job better and faster. During a short spell on the accounting ladder, the same was noted within the financial sector. Chris Jordan surfed this wave of computer growth by developing small and large data systems for national food and beverage companies. Eventually, managing a national software department after stints as a programmer, business analyst and project manager. During this period he became intrigued with some of the unanswered questions surrounding natureâ€™s development process. After many years of study some concepts were crossed over between the computing and biological arenas. This led to some novel computer systems that literally built themselves around the databases to which they were aimed. This software was the center piece of a computer company set up by a few partners and himself. Several papers on systems analysis and design were published during this time in specialist magazines. Whilst running this company, further research was carried out modeling non-linear reaction diffusion systems on the surfaces of cells and groups of cells. This led to his seminal work on the nature of morphological determination and the role cell adhesion molecules played within the scheme. This in turn led to some unique experiments in the field of developmental biology. The general framework for development was published in Thailand during a three year sabbatical. The author started visiting the ancient sites of Asia during this period. Whilst he had previously been a visitor to the European and Egyptian sites, the common facets of the cultures began to emerge from all this travel. Despite a two year interlude managing the IT for a global spirits company in ex Eastern bloc countries, the interest in the ancient past continued. Specifically, the desire to make sense of all of these similar religious sites, tools and unexplained curios. Any scientist is taught that it is from the quirky inexplicable areas that new ideas evolve. A simple paradigm that extends further is deemed more elegant than a restrictive complex alternative. This is where the site narrative that makes up the Secrets of the Sun Sects stems from. This was coupled with the faulty parabolic mirror theories that surround these same cultures. The math that shows how easy it was for the ancient craftsmen to build the mirrors and how powerful they were, was carried out over thirty years ago. Ironically, this was the first thing the author failed to publish as a teenager. At the time, it was just a table, which a child thought was missing from the classroom texts. Fortuitously, it was very useful in proving that spherical surfaces make good Burning Mirrors for all manner of applications. From these two strands the full scope of the use of solar technology in the ancient world was built up. He is currently promoting the use of solar technologies in the developing countries of Asia.
