IndieView with J.F. Hughes, author of The Gardens of Byzantium

I write with the thought that anyone can gain something from the work, even if certain kinds of readers would be more likely to purchase the book. That being said, readers of historical fiction or romance will find a lot they enjoy about “The Gardens of Byzantium.”

Indieview with Tod Foley, editor of IPSEITIES

It’s a deliberately unsettling book, harshly realistic at times, deeply cryptic at others. These stories are designed to leave you staring into space and wondering.

IndieView with Susan Godwin, author of Rain Dodging

Oh, yes. My target reader’s idea of a good time is curling up with a good book that gambols through the Cotswold’s or wanders the streets of London.

IndieView with Christina Consolino, author of The Weight We Carry

My work is categorized as women’s fiction, which simply means that the focus of the narrative is the emotional journey of the protagonist. I tend to write character-driven fiction, too, so my target reader is one who enjoys learning about the characters and their thought, motivations, and desires.

IndieView with c.b. strul, author of The Ancient Ones

One day, back in 2018, it occurred to me that there was a really cool story to be told wherein an ancient culture came in contact with aliens. And then, of course, I began considering what that would even entail.

BookView with Mary Camarillo, author of Those People Behind Us

During the pandemic, my husband and I spent a lot of time walking the streets of our neighborhood and making up stories about the lives of our neighbors. We heard someone pounding on a drum set and decided it must be a kid who wanted to be a rock and roller. One of our neighbors always left all of their doors wide open, day and night, and we worried something bad could easily happen to them.
