When the crew of the space transport Millennium falls mysteriously ill, it’s up to the spiders brought on board for research to save the humans—and the mission—before the ship is lost in deep space.
The story blends comedy, adventure, heart, and real-life spider facts in short, engaging chapters. Twelve full color, original watercolor illustrations by the author are included.
This story teaches lessons about teamwork, courage, and taking responsibility.
April L. Hamilton is an author, blogger, Technorati BlogCritic, leading advocate and speaker for the indie author movement, and founder and Editor in Chief of Publetariat, the premier online news hub and community for indie authors and small imprints. April is also on the Board of Directors for the Association of Independent Authors.
In 2009, she launched Publetariat Vault University, an online educational program offering lessons in Self-Publishing and Author Platform/Book Promotion. Her popular self-published reference book, The IndieAuthor Guide, has been released by Writer's Digest Books in a revised and updated edition and is currently available from booksellers everywhere in both print and ebook formats.
April is also the author of novels available in both ebook and POD form. She's been quoted in The Wall Street Journal, MSN Money and The Washington Times, and profiled by ABNA Books and The Writing Cast podcast. Her book, The IndieAuthor Guide, has received favorable mention on CNET and recommendations from The Huffington Post and New York Times Magazine.
She's spoken at the O'Reilly Tools of Change conference and the Writers Digest Business of Getting Published conference, and has also judged self-published books for competitions run by Writers Digest and the Next Generation Indie Book Awards.
April lives in Southern California with her two children and entirely too many pets. When she's not writing, promoting indie authorship, kid-wrangling or pursuing her grandiose and hopeless dream of a neat and orderly household, she can generally be found reading, reclaiming the domestic arts (aka crafting) or taking in a movie.
