Hello there! I am glad you have taken an interest in my work. I am a self employed writer who does freelance work out of my home in New England. I am married to my wife, legally! Go us! For more than 5 years now. We have 1 child and three cats. I love to write and I love to self publish as well. I have been offered the right to publish under an actual publishing company in the real world but I find that deadlines take away from the fun of writing just to write. I love every single one of my characters. Whether they be rough around the edges or polished till they shine, I adore them all. They are all children, born of my mind and each line of every story is created on its own. Sometimes I swear I am just the medium. I love my work. I really hope you can say this about your work as well. If not.. you should really find something you can love. Don't ever do anything that makes you unhappy. That is my motto. Thank you for reading my profile and I hope you will buy one or all of my digital downloads. If you prefer print see the above links for a place where you can buy them.

I have been writing on and off for a number of years, drawing on my spiritual beliefs and folk tales I have heard from around the world during my mad pretend-hippy days of back-packing around the globe. I finally became a responsible adult (after living in a bus like a refugee from a Cliff Richard movie) and settled back on the Isle of Wight. I took up work as a psychiatric nurse and this always took precedence until at the ripe old age of fifty-five, I decided to retire and go part-time so that I could finally work on the books I have been writing over the years. I am a Pagan priest and an ordained minister of the Church of Spiritual Humanism. I write for pleasure and now I want to share that pleasure with you. I hope these books bring you as much enjoyment in the reading of them as they have given me in the writing of them.
A Secret Chill by Kevin A. Carey-Infante A Secret Chill by Kevin A. Carey-Infante Nov. 28, 2010 $2.99 119991 words Sample 20%
Author bio:
Mr. Carey-Infante was born and raised in suburban Philadelphia. He graduated from Millersville University of Pennsylvania in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Mr. Carey-Infante currently resides in the Bronx, New York, living with and married to the love of his life, Walter Infante. He writes what he likes to call realistic thriller fiction. The work that Mr. Carey-Infante is most proud of is his award winning short story TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL, A 9/11 SHORT STORY. It's an inspirational story born out of the ashes of the tragedy of the World Trade Center disaster in New York City on September 11, 2001. Mr. Carey-Infante, who was abused and bullied as a child, is now an avid child abuse and LGBTQ anti-bullying advocate. He has made it his mission to end bullying of all kinds, and to make it better right now. What a better way to do that than to write about true-life experiences of abused and bullied teens and how they confront, over-come and even, in some cases, embrace their abusers and bulliers. You can follow Mr. Carey-Infante's LGBTQ teen stories through his Bani Chamberlain series of novelettes. The first two novelettes, BANI'S DILEMMA and BANI FINDS HER SOMETHING are now available for your enjoyment. Mr. Carey-Infante has extensively traveled the world and experienced life from a perspective not afforded many. Geoffrey S. Brooks, the protagonist in his novels OUR LITTLE SECRET and A SECRET CHILL, has been touted as the gay Jack Ryan, made famous by award-winning author Tom Clancy. Follow Geoffrey Brooks as he quietly captures image after image of his childhood, piecing together for us a tale of rape, murder and the loss of childhood innocence to the realization of a dream as an operative for the National Security Agency. For those of you into m/m erotica, Mr. Carey-Infante has written his first gay erotic thriller, titled ANATOMY OF AN INTERNET DECEPTION. It's an adults only erotic tale of love and deception taken from actual e-mail exchanges, really love letters, between two men who are unwittingly falling in love with each other. Both of them, however, have their own agendas…and love isn't one of them.

Author bio:
"I was born on the banks of the Amazon River and raised by a Kaiapo wet-nurse while my mother conducted medical research and taught the Kaiapo children how to play the violin. After growing up with these rain forest natives and a long bout of malaria, I went on to get my degree in rocket science at the University of Uganda (U of U). To this day, I have not gotten a rocket off the ground. Presently, I’m trying to raise money to return to the Amazon to show gratitude to my surrogate mother, whom I’ve not seen in all these years. She always wanted a car hood to use as an awning over the door to her hut. I finally found one, on a 1973 Cadillac in a wrecking yard on a two-lane highway just south of Knoxville, Tennessee. Today, I take great satisfaction in spending time with my wife, in writing, and in telling lies." Author of "Five Married Men", "A Song in the Park", "The Partisans", "Erotic Tales for Enlightened Minds", and "The Strange Haunting of Johnny Feelwater", Martin resides in Dallas and is an advocate of human diversity.
A Stranger in Triva by Marten Weber A Stranger in Triva by Marten Weber March 29, 2011 $6.69 94462 words Sample 8%
Author bio:
I am of mixed parentage (a man and a woman) and have lived in more countries than I can count on hands and feet together. I speak several languages, and believe in multiculturalism, tolerance, and free champagne also in economy class. I dislike bigots and fanatics of all denominations. I am hugely uncomfortable with labels, even seemingly benign ones such as 'gay,' 'straight,' or 'sugar-free' and prefer instead to judge people by their sense of humor and shoe size. I believe that everybody, regardless of race or gender, income or size of genitals, should be gay for a year. Over the past two decades, I have published hundreds of stories and novellas and set them free on the Internet, not always under my real name. Some of them have mated with other texts, music and videos, to produce the most curious offspring. One story has left the known universe and is currently a best-seller on Pharus II. Most of my recent books concern the lives and adventures of men, both today, in history, and in the future.

Also Known As DNA by Kelli Jae Baeli Also Known As DNA by Kelli Jae Baeli March 02, 2010 $5.99 76181 words Sample 25%
Author bio:
*All Books unavailable here in standard ebook formats, can be had at the author's site in PDF format.* Baeli was born to spin a yarn. The daughter of a professional musician, she arrived in Wichita and began her journey with a song in her heart and a plethora of passion erupting from her pen. This love of lyrics, prose and poetry was just the simple seed of what would grow into a wordsmith's obsession with the creation of multifarious characters and storylines that fork with dual plot lines into romance and intrigue. Oklahoma, Arkansas and Colorado are just a few locales that surface in Baeli's novels as these places are ones she drank in from her time in University, to retreating for self exploration. Each place is rich in bucolic terrain and provided grand palettes for her mysteries and suspenseful romances. Townies and their coveted colloquialisms provided divine fodder for tales too real to be true. There is nothing like experience to craft a character. Baeli has plenty to spare—from a stint in the military to late nights spent delivering newspapers, waiting tables, or as a technical writer for a corporate jet company. Each job was a necessity, but one that Baeli turned into a study in the human condition or sometimes inhumane conditions. Some of Baeli's fondest endeavors were fronting an all female band for seven years in Little Rock and her enjoyable time as a managing editor for a women's press.

A self-confessed science fiction and fantasy devotee, Mel Keegan is known for novels across a wide range of subjects, from the historical to the future action-adventure ... but certainly MK is best known for the NARC series, featuring iconic characters Jarrat and Stone. Mel lives in South Australia with an eccentric family. From 1989 to 2001, GMP Ltd. in the UK issued the Keegan titles, and released eight original novels plus numerous reprints. In 1999, GMP was bought out -- twice! -- and the final owner of the old company was a magazine publisher (Millivres Publishing Group) which had, essentially, no interest in contintuing the old paperback list. In short order the editorial staff was laid off and the writers were set free... You'd be surprised at the writers who were suddenly adrift without anchor or rudder! Keegan, Josh Lanyon, David Patrick Beavers, Chris Hunt, and others. Some of us have clawed our way back and are rebuilding careers which were badly damaged by the demise of GMP.

When it comes to erotic fiction, my stories, characters and settings are based in the real world, even when they are paranormal. I write about regular (and irregular) people such as yourself having wild times, regardless of age, sexual orientation, disability, ethnicity, or any other variant. My short stories appear in anthologies such as Best Women's Erotica, Best Lesbian Erotica and Ultimate Lesbian Erotica. I've also written several erotic novellas about Gay shapeshifters (Sweet Pet, Sweet Pet 2: Battlecry), Earth elementals who solve crime (Angel on the Roof). I've also written a collection of erotic short stories set up and down the length of the United Kingdom and Ireland (Erotic Brits) Violet Blue, editor of Best Women's Erotica has very kindly called me 'Imitable' in the introduction of Best Women's Erotica 2011, so I'm very happy about that!

Author bio:
I've been writing as long as I can remember (which is longer than I like to admit). I started creating M/M romances in high-school, filling binders with stories about what Starsky and Hutch really did on their days off. (Pretty PG-rated stuff - we're talking sheltered fourteen-year-old here. I was into the romantic possibilities.) Any potential writing career got side-tracked by forays into art, psychology, teaching, and a biomedical profession. And the challenges of raising children. When I took up the keyboard again it was just for fun, writing books for my own entertainment. At about manuscript seven, my epically patient spouse told me that if I was going to spend that much time at it, I should try to get published. And he kept saying it, loudly, until I submitted one. And it was accepted! (Really exciting!) That's Life Lessons that was published May 2011 MLR Press. A short story, And to All a Good Night, that follows it is available here for free. The sequel, Breaking Cover, came out from MLR in late July. And I'm currently in the editing process for other work, including a werewolf novel, Unacceptable Risk. My Smashwords book, Lies and Consequences, started as a kind of reaction after the November 2010 elections when the DADT repeal looked like it might be derailed. Then I was caught by surprise as I finished the book in December and the repeal passed. I tweaked it by upping the action, and deemphasizing the DADT subplot. The result was something lightweight, but hopefully fun. So I put it out as a free read. I hope you enjoy it. As a new author, I really appreciate reviews - what you liked and what you didn't. Remember those other six manuscripts? (Okay, nine now.) Maybe your comment will help turn the next good book into a better book. KH

Author bio:
I’ve lived most of my life in the San Fran­cisco Bay Area though I wasn’t born there (or, indeed, the USA). I’m mar­ried with no kids and three cats, am a cycling nut (go Team Garmin!), and my day job involves art­work, crazy (read: incom­pre­hen­si­bly fun) cowork­ers who spe­cial­ize in all kinds of media, and the occa­sional strange cus­tomer requests involv­ing papier mache fish with sparkly scales. I’m a writer of young adult fic­tion, spe­cial­iz­ing in con­tem­po­rary fan­tasy, his­tor­i­cal fan­tasy, and his­tor­i­cal gen­res. My books range from a super­hero fan­tasy series to reworked folk­tales to Vic­to­rian ghost fic­tion. My themes are coming-of-age, with very lit­tle focus on romance (most of the time) and more on indi­vid­ual growth with some adven­ture thrown in. Start­ing 2011, I’ll be writ­ing and pub­lish­ing adult fic­tion titles, all of which will be pretty much com­ple­ments of my cur­rent YA back­list. My adult fic­tion titles will be some­thing like the “grownup” ver­sions of the kinds of sto­ries I love writing.
