An Interview with Teri Blair

Teri has been writing since she was a small child clicking away on her old typewriter. She sees stories everywhere in this world and loves to share them. When she isn’t writing, you can find her at the elementary school she works at, spending time with her nieces, or snuggled up reading and surrounded by shelter animals.

An Interview with Niki Quinlan

Hey, my name’s Niki, writer of The Virgin King Series. Flying by the ink of my pen. The more I try to plan, the more of a mess I find myself in. Blue Biros and A5 notepads are my writer’s drug of choice. I fell in love with BL so much, I now write my own. I love a good weepy series but don’t like to write them because I can’t focus on the words, which is difficult, because I’ve made myself cry a few times while writing.

An Interview with David A. Royster

I am a storyteller who has always felt the world most clearly through imagination—not as an escape, but as a way to witness and repair what is broken. Growing up, I was drawn to the kinds of stories where wonder walked alongside grief: Treasure Planet, Atlantis, Hercules—tales where flawed heroes stumble toward growth, where loss leaves scars, but where light is still worth carrying forward. Those stories taught me that hope is not naive; it’s hard-won. That same lesson shapes everything I write.

An Interview with Crystal Lopez

Writing has never been just a hobby for me. It is my therapy, my release, my most honest form of breathing. I write when I am struggling and when I am finally at peace. I write when joy catches me off guard and when love takes over everything. Writing is the only thing that knows how to reach into the crowded, heavy noise inside my head and turn it into something soft … something quiet.

An Interview with Frances Donovan

I’m a journalist and presenter with twenty-five years of experience working with the BBC, ITV, Sky, Channel 4, and IMG. I’ve been writing for TV and radio throughout my working life, but Angarrack is my debut novel. I’ve loved every second of creating it, although it’s been a steep learning curve. I was delighted when Angarrack was recently short-listed for The Historical Novel Society’s First Chapters Competition.

An Interview with Effie Soumelidis

Effie is an indie author from the North of England, where she lives with her husband of over twenty-five years and their two children. Influenced by her Greek heritage, she is drawn to stories shaped by history, legacy, and the ties that bind people long after they should have let go. She writes emotionally charged romance with a darker edge, often blending contemporary and paranormal elements to explore love, grief, power, and what it means to truly belong.

An Interview with Keri FitzPatrick

To say I love books is an understatement. I learned to read before I headed off to school thanks to my grandmother’s insistence and support. She taught me the value of my own curiosity and to seek knowledge beyond face value. My early beginnings have led to a deep commitment to life-long learning. And the occasional life lesson, because reading about it wasn’t enough, I needed to go try it out. I have a master’s degree in counseling, though for the past twenty-plus years I’ve worked in the criminal justice system, first as a probation officer, followed by my work now as an education specialist.
