ℚ♫ Smuggler - Nicholas Fillmore

Today we have the pleasure of meeting up with author Nicholas Fillmore to talk about Smuggler (29 November 2018, iambic Books, 292 pages), a Memoir.

"The book starts glamorous and slow and then accelerates into a dark world where actions have consequences. Nigerian gangsters, black magic, international travels, heroin smuggling, moral justifications and a descent into the inevitable. Excellent writing, believable characters … an interesting read narrated by a very competent writer." —Santiago D., NetGalley Review

“Fillmore weaves a hypnotic tale of drugs, crime, prison, and existential angst against a backdrop of poetic Cape Cod nostalgia and international intrigue. An instant classic.” —Z. Goode, Amazon Review

✉ Why I Write YA Fiction - Janet Schrader-Post

Today author Janet Schrader-Post takes over our blog to tell us about why she writes Young Adult fiction; her latest work is The Young Adult Writer's Journey: An Encyclopedia for YA Writers (23 November 2018, Tell-Tale Publishing Group, 199 pages), a Non-Fiction 'How-to' book.

"The trouble with “how to” books on creativity is that they usurp creativity. Not so with this very insightful guide for YA writing. If it doesn’t become a standard or even a classic among reference books, it will be an oversight.

Janet Schrader-Post and Elizabeth Fortin-Hinds have all the marinated smarts and credentialed experience to pull this off, and they do! No dictated wisdom from on high here, no grafted creativity, THE YOUNG ADULT WRITER’S JOURNEY is accessible, motivational and a clear map that leaves plenty of room to discover for anyone wanting to explore their creative side." ~ Thomas Sullivan, Pulitzer-nominated author of THE PHASES OF HARRY MOON
