  • DIY Writer #29 Joan De La Haye

    Joan De La Haye is…alright…let’s just be honest here. I’m a fanboy. She’s a damn talented writer in my humble opinion. You know what, buy one of her books and judge for yourself! Be a Freaky Darling and explore the Weird Shit that Fascinates her. LOL.

    Joan De La Haye writes horror and some very twisted thrillers. She invariably wakes up in the middle of the night, because she's figured out yet another freaky way to mess with her already screwed up characters.

    Joan is interested in some seriously weird stuff. That's probably also one of the reasons she writes horror.
    Joan is deep, dark and seriously twisted and so is her writing.

  • DIY Writer #28 Kristina Rienzi

    Author, Life Coach, and HR professional. Kristina has a fun outlook on life and is entertaining till the end. I really enjoyed talking about the writing process and how just a few small steps can change the way you start your day. Also, if you happen to be looking for a Life Coach, she's got the skills to help you.

     

    Kristina Rienzi is a Jersey Shore-based new adult thriller author, certified professional coach, and the former president of Sisters in Crime-Central Jersey. An INFJ who dreams beyond big, Kristina encourages others (and herself) to embrace the unknown through her stories. When she's not writing or drinking wine, Kristina is spoiling her baby girl (and two fur-babies), dissecting true crime stories, singing (and dancing) to Yacht Rock Radio or rooting for the WVU Mountaineers. She believes in all things paranormal, a closet full of designer bags, weekly manicures, the Law of Attraction, aliens, angels, and the value of a graduate degree in psychology

  • DIY Writer #27 Helen Edwards

    I found myself immersed in the story of John “Dutchy” Edwards as Helen described the book and told story after story of what he went through in his long career in the Canadian Navy. He went through two world wars and visited many different countries.

    IN A NAVAL CAREER that spanned nearly four decades and led him to ports of call and engagements around the globe, John “Dutchy” Edwards rose from

    cadet to Commodore in a career rich in adventure and service to his country. This carefully researched and faithfully reproduced volume of his journals
    begins with Dutchy’s early naval experiences in the theatre of battle during the First World War, then follows his peacetime progress on the west and east coasts of Canada in the “Roaring Twenties”. It continues in a return to the Mediterranean aboard HMS Valiant and concludes with North American patrols in command of HMCS Champlain.

    HELEN EDWARDS’ extensive research skills and knowledge of family history have immeasurably enriched Dutchy’s journals, bringing his words to life
    for a worldwide audience and enhancing our understanding of one of the most notable periods in Canada’s emergence onto the world stage.

    A.R. Harlow

    I’ve Lost My Way – The Finding Chronicles Book 2

    We Must Find Her – The Finding Chronicles Book 1 1/1/2019

    https://arharlow1122.wixsite.com/author

     https://www.amazon.com/Must-Find-Finding-Chronicles-Book-ebook/dp/B07MHGP3LV

    Born and raised in rural Missouri in what is affectionately known as “the sticks”, A.R. Harlow has found herself living near the big city of St. Louis with her life partner. While still holding a little piece of country at heart, she finds the city to be a place of ideas where she never knows what will happen next. She has a hyper, well-spoken five year old daughter and two cats that also like to keep her on her toes.

    ​

    A.R. Harlow takes great interest in the depths of people and why people act and react and develop the way that they do, so much in fact, that she went to get a B.S. in Psychology and is working through a M.A. in Counseling.

    ​

    She has been writing stories since she was about four years old. When she was around seven, she started to take it more seriously and delved deep into the world of online role-playing game forums and often spent days crafting characters in various worlds, including original settings. Several of her short stories and poetry were published in different charity anthologies and an online fiction magazine.

    ​

    A.R. has been a fan of fantasy and often can be found curled up with a great title that meshes fantasy and science fiction. She has taken a page out of the book of many great authors and has developed a massive multiverse where characters, stories, and timelines will overlap from book to book. She enjoys testing limits, breaking barriers, and tackling any challenge thrown her way.

  • DIY Writer #25 Sarah Blair

    Sarah is quite a character. Her books and her insane fixation with X-Files makes her very interesting to talk to. Enjoy.

     

    Sarah Blair has been writing since her early teenage years when she penned her first ever fan fiction for The X-Files. Her love of all things sexy, snarky, and supernatural developed from reading the greats of the paranormal world, Anne Rice, Laurell K. Hamilton, and Charlaine Harris, as well as thrilling tales of murder and mystery from Chelsea Cain, Tess Gerritsen, Kathy Reichs, and Patricia Cornwell.

    Spending her formative years living in New York City, Sarah was always fascinated by the parts of the city most people never see; wondering what was behind the millions of windows in the skyscrapers, and hidden in the shadows just beyond the hustle and bustle of the busy city streets. While living a semester abroad at Swansea University in Wales she traveled to nearby Bath and Glastonbury often, drawing inspiration for her writing from the myths and legends surrounding the area.
    Blair weaves all of these life experiences and writing styles into her own unique Urban Fantasy world, casting the bright lights of the Big Apple on the legends of yore, and entangling the fairy tales and superstitious beliefs of history with modern science and magic.

    The Bell Chime 9/2/2020

    "Can you hear the bell chime?"

    A girl suffering from paralyzing night terrors finds a missing poster hanging from the door of her apartment building. On that poster is a photograph of a frighteningly familiar face.
    It’s her.
    Only, she’s never seen this photo before and something about its grin scares her. How its eyes seem to follow her no matter where she finds herself in the room.
    Over a series of strange events to follow—events that will make her question whether her sanity is still there or fleeting—she must discover:
    What is real and what is the nightmare?
    The Bell Chime is the disturbing, psychological novella debut from Mona Kabbani.
    Slated for publication on September 2nd, 2020, the Full Corn Moon.

    Mona Kabbani is a horror fan, writer, and reviewer obsessed with psychology and the human condition. She emulates the conflict of the good versus the bad and all of the in between in her work while providing an entertainingly horrifying experience. She is a Lebanese immigrant living the American dream in New York City where much of her writing is inspired.
