The power of words
The power of words goes way beyond their individual meanings. Words are used as the tools to allow a thought, a story or a novel to come into being and reach the reader.
The words enable the author to paint on what seemingly looks as a blank canvas from which every stroke can emerge a story which was until then living in a silent world.
They are the means by which an author can bring out in the reader any of the various emotions such as love, hate, despair, hope, etc.
I hope my use of words presents to the readers stories of interest which, while entertaining them, also gets them to look at the world around them and imagine what can be. I majorly write in the areas of fiction, fantasy and science-fiction.
The power of words has brought me to this point where I have created several stories which are available in both French and English for readers to enjoy.
You will find my books on Amazon. Here is the link: Author Page Claire Manning

Reader review about Project Carbon Copy
Here is an email that I just got from an acquaintance of mine who have read some of my previous books and here is what he said about Project Carbon Copy.
I have known Claire for a few years and I read many of her books. I let her know that I found interesting and thoroughly enjoyed the variety of different topics.
I got in touch with Claire a short time ago again and she mentioned she had just finished a new book. I asked her when it was coming out and she said in the near future and asked me if I would like to read it immediately.
She said the name of the book was Project Carbon Copy and she sent it to me. As I said earlier, I thoroughly enjoyed her previous books and this was no exception. I find that Claire writing gets better and more professional with each of her publications.
I enjoyed everything about this book. The topic is very much “today”. The story is about extraterrestrials and the fact that they are already here amongst us and what they plan to do with Earth and its population. It seems all too real. We know that the US government is hiding many facts about Roswell and other alien’s sightings. This book really made me question how much they know and how much they had kept from the public. Very interesting...
It definitely gave me food for thought as well as being very entertaining. I totally recommend to anybody who wants a good read. Thanks again Claire for sending this to me. I really enjoyed it.
All the best and much success.

Comments about my books
THE PROGRAMMER
This is the story of two school dropout teenagers who choose to become professional hackers. Their journey brings them into contact with a series of adventure that neither one could have ever imagined. They come across a secret which reveals why humanity is in the present situation and find themselves in a position where they can change the future course of the planet. It is thought provoking and exciting. It is a no mislead.
THE FORBIDDEN BOOK
This book is a little look into religion and its possible influences on our society throughout the ages. Is the Beelzebub the evil satanic entity you have been lead to believe? Prepare to be surprised at the outcome. I have been VERY surprised.
THE HORRIBLE FATE OF OUR BLUE PLANET
One would be inclined to think words like Armageddon, Pharmageddon, Apocalypse and "God's Wrath " are good words to qualify future dramatic occurrences. But rarely do we hear about plain and strict Hope. Claire Manning has built a short novel which, at first sight, appears to be only fantasy and entertainment, however, it would be a mistake to go on this first impression. Here is a genuine new writer who has something to say and says it very well. A depressing mood and dark thoughts have become " Orders of the day " in many of today's books; Manning uses a highly concise style to express obvious truths while dragging the reader into an eventful journey which could very well become a reality. Her own moral values are barely disguised and it is quite refreshing indeed to take a fresh new look at the actual world and smile with relief at the outcome. Such a viewpoint is cruelly missing and she is to be thanked for this hopeful glimpse into new possible realities.
"Great idea, that will never die - searching for the best in mankind, always trying to be better...this will never die and will always be an interesting subject. Original way of achieving the goal I think this is your contribution to the idea - not just that we have to be better, but also how to get there - really well done. The Si-Fi version may not be acceptable for everyone, but my family loves it (especially me). Your book is very promising and I personally think this is a pretty impressive start. By all means - keep writing because we, the readers deserve to be spoiled by beautiful stories. I actually decided to read it again.
Keep up the good job and let me know where I can sign for an advance copy of your next masterpiece."
PROJECT CARBON COPY
What is behind all the UFO sightings? Get the real story behind the headlines. You will never believe again that we are alone in this universe. This book will give you more information than you want to know and may cause you to have more than a few sleepless nights. Be prepared to be shocked.
THE REVENGE OF THE DRAGON
This is a great story for "children" of all ages, for a mother to read to her children, a grandmother to her grand-children. It contains all the elements of good and evil. Like all children's stories it contains a hero and a villain and the triumph of good over evil. It is set in the orient which lends a sense of mystery and adventure. It is a beautiful story.
TERRA COTTA
Terra Cotta gives a view of a very bleak future for planet Earth. Certainly we are heading in that direction, with pollution and our failure to be conscientious caretakers. But one determined man persists in a quest to resolve the problems of a planet gone bad. He finds some fascinating, sometimes strange, and entertaining solutions. As you may guess, not everyone is on board. A few have a vested interest in seeing the planet stay the way it is. Claire Manning has woven these elements into her story, and you'll just have to read it to find out the details and results.
THE WILL OF SAM WILCOX
Animal lovers will like this story. The story makes you feel what the main character is living and how strangely enough her life change on a dime. A lawyer's will is the cause.
THE ULTIMATE DNA
A parallel world awaits for you. Find out how you fit in this scenario. The last two human specimen are left on their own device to find their way out. They are pure DNA and someone is after them. Multiverses awaits for you. A very surprising outcome!
