I am a retired trial lawyer who started writing fiction during a Covid isolation. My first  novel, THE LAST OF THE CLEVENGERS, was written when I was 89 years old. Since then I have self published CROOKED LAKE and books one and two of the Jeremy Pendelton Murder Series, MURDER AT THE COME ON INN and MURDER AT THE CAPITOL RACEWAY. Book three of the series, MURDER ON THE FOURTEENTH TEE, will be published in the coming weeks. I write under the name P.M. Berk. I live in Itasca, Illinois with my wife, Nancy.

I am Jacqueline Yvette Waters, a published author of two books: "The Bully I See" and "ABC Don't Bully Me." I am also the Owner, CEO, and Founder of "U" Niquely "U", Inc., a bullying awareness and prevention organization, established in 2014. "U" Niquely "U", Inc. is a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to addressing the widespread issue of bullying that negatively impacts and terrorizes our youth.

My motivation for founding "U" Niquely "U", Inc. stems from the urgent need to protect and support our youth. With the alarming increase in teen suicide rates, our organization offers a comprehensive approach to combat bullying and violence. We achieve this through our anti-bullying, suicide prevention, and youth empowerment programs, which cater to young individuals, educators, parents, and the community as a whole. These youth empowerment programs aim to create a positive support system that equips young people with the tools and resilience to navigate life's challenges, while fostering self-love and respect for themselves and others.

Frankie Rollins is the author of Do You Feel Like Writing? A Creative Guide To Artistic Confidence (July 2023), and two books of fiction, The Grief Manuscript (2020) and The Sin Eater & Other Stories (2013). She was shortlisted for Aesthetica’s Creative Writing Award 2023, and has published work in Two Hawks Quarterly, Fairy Tale Review, Sonora Review, Conjunctions, and The New England Review, among others.

D.S. Kinahan showed promise as a writer at an early age, winning an SPCA-sponsored essay contest while in the seventh grade. Choosing a drastically disparate career path later in life, she spent more than thirty years working as a federal auditor at offices in New York, Massachusetts, and New Mexico.

Once retired and living in Nevada, Ms. Kinahan found herself spending way too much time and money at the casinos. She decided to take a much larger gamble and started writing again. Her debut book, "Love, Despair and Other Heartaches", was published in 2018 and followed in short order by four other novels ("Wandering Towards Normal", "My Zestful Years", "The Last Two Thousand Miles", and "Fervid Frenzy"). All five follow the life and loves of a female CPA with the wallop of some sizzling, steamy sex scenes that would make Sin City proud.

Her latest work, “The Former Mrs. Good Girl”, tells the story of a woman whose spiritual faith falters after she discovers her husband is a compulsive cheater. Since always walking the straight and narrow got her nowhere, she decides to throw caution to the wind and tap into her wild side. As her morals begin to spiral out of control, she learns the hard way that her choices can result in serious consequences.

D.S. Kinahan’s work can be best described as graphic (think “slutty”) chick lit. Her hope is to dispel the myth that accountants are boring, prim, and proper individuals. It’s a very select audience who enjoys this genre. Are you one of them? If so, her books can be found at https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0876FD1PV/allbooks?ingress=0&visitId=d66f5a44-bc6a-4138-858b-0c3855998959&store.
