IndieView with Peter McChesney, author of Quinto’s Challenge

The story blends hard science with political thriller elements, and while the premise is ambitious, it’s grounded in a deeply human story that explores real scientific questions that are already beginning to surface today.

IndieView with Nancy Bernhard, author of The Double Standard Sporting House

My delightful, flamboyant grandmother once told me that her Aunt Beadie was a madam. It was a total fabrication, but got me wondering how a smart middle-class girl with a large, supportive family could end up in prostitution.

IndieView with Meryl Ain, author of Remember to Eat and Other Stories

I based the stories of Alice on my mother’s experiences, especially during WWII and the 1950’s, and I wanted to honor my mother and be accurate to the historical period.

IndieView with Linda Bass, author of A Tiny White Light

A first for The IndieView. Today we’re featuring a BookView with the author discussion two of his books in one interview. These are both poetry books, one called War and Other Inconveniences (War for short in his interview answers) and Poetry Without Borders (Borders for short).

IndieView with Leon Mitchell, author of Felicity Fire and the Forever Key

 

One of the goals of this book was to write it more like a film, so it feels like the reader is experiencing a movie on a page. I wanted to bring the big blockbuster feel to the book and give a form of escapism.

IndieView with Sandra Freels, author of Anneke Jans in the New World

IndieView with Fizza Bukhari, author of Whispers of Sin in the Shadows of Passion
