Meet The Author: Matthew Kresal
I love stories about consequences. Matthew’s story Go is one of those perfect stories for that, pairing history with hell, ghosts with memories and consequences that are well deserved. I gripped my Kindle so hard as I read, wondering what was happening. Just as confused as our main character, Wilburforce, until the revelation hit meContinue reading “Meet The Author: Matthew Kresal”
Meet The Author: Gustavo Bondoni
Gustavo’s story, Topside, had me staring at the wall for an hour after reading it, just thinking about the story.

Meet the Author: Laura E. Price
