Christian Warren Freed
“Christian does a great job helping an aspiring writer get inspired to write and finish their book. It’s easy to read and understand, and provides encouragement and specific guidance, without being too harsh or detailed on fiction writing only. If you are struggling with how to put your thoughts onto paper, give this a read and establish a rhythm for your writing. Christian’s success at completing over 21 published manuscripts while leading a busy life are testament in if there is a will, there is a way. And it provides some good humor throughout.”
Rachel Braynin, Sr Program Manager at Lulu Publishing”
Christian Warren Freed, So...You Want to Write a Book?

Celeste Ng
“How did you explain to someone—how did you explain to a child, a child you loved—that someone they adored was not to be trusted? She”
Celeste Ng, Little Fires Everywhere

Kim Edwards
“In some deep place in her heart, Caroline had kept alive the silly romantic notion that somehow David Henry had once known her as no one else ever could. But it was not true. He had never even glimpsed her.”
Kim Edwards, The Memory Keeper's Daughter

Kyle Keyes
“There is no universe per se. Nor is there a beginning, Big Bang or otherwise. We live in an energy field that recycles quarks, which format with given configurations, because they've done that before.”
Kyle Keyes, Matching Configurations

Gena Showalter
“He’d never be able to touch her, and as passionate as she was, she would eventually need a man who could. He’d never had to worry about these things before because he’d never been with a woman. Not even before his possession. He’d been too busy then, too involved in his job. Maybe he needed to join Workaholics Anonymous, he thought dryly. He had to be the only millennia-old virgin in history.”
Gena Showalter, The Darkest Whisper
