GENRE: Sci-fi/Fantasy
Telepathy creates as many problems as it solves, as most of the members of the secret organization x0 would admit. When new member Lola discovers another group of telepaths with a completely different approach, those problems multiply at the speed of thought.
Soon, Lola’s family and friends are in danger. Lucky for her, she’s not your average budding psychic. Each person with whom she is close has a special gift of their own. That’s good, because it’s going to take every power they possess to keep this other group from succeeding with their plan to eradicate x0.
As soon as Ariel heard her mother’s voice, she knew that it was a bad time for a phone call.
“Honey, I’m in the cell lot at the airport, waiting to pick up Zane. Is everything okay?”
“It’s fine mom.”
“Good. I’m here with Teddie and Xuha in the car, and Zane’s going to text us any second, once he’s gotten his bag. There’s a ton of traffic. Talk later?”
“This is quick. I’m bringing two people with me to Houston, mom, to join us for Christmas.”
“You’re what??”
Then, with less irritation.
“Wait, is one of them this young man you went to Turkey with?”
“I wish. These are two friends of mine from Ireland, mom, and it’s kind of long story.”
Lola took a breath and reached out to her daughter. She got that Ariel wasn’t particularly happy about this either. She got that Ariel felt bad about springing it on her parents. She got that these two would not be dissuaded from coming. And she got that they, too, had abilities that could be useful in the days ahead.
“Right.”
“Did you just read my mind, mom?”
“An emergency decision, dear. This is not good timing for guests, as you well know, but we’ll make the best of the situation. When do you get here?”
“We’ll be there Friday.”
“You do know that Teddie has people coming too, right? c3 people. They get here on Tuesday.”
“It’s all going to be okay mom.”
“Are you telling me that as a psychic, or as my daughter?”
Lola heard Ariel laugh.
“Just as your daughter, mom. Our futures over the next couple months could not be more confusing. Maybe there will be more clarity once I get there. I hope so.”
The phone bleeped with a text message. Lola said a quick goodbye as she made her way into in the mass of cars trying to pick up holiday travelers.
She did her best to avoid those pulling in and out of parking and those loading overstuffed luggage into car trunks, sucking in her breath and hitting her brakes as a small child darted out in front of her. A traffic cop whistled and motioned at her to keep moving. Where the hell was Zane? He had clearly texted her, but now he was nowhere to be seen.
“Do you see Zane?”
“No,” Teddie said. “But I see Xuha.”
“Of course, dear. That is not helpful. Look outside the car, please.”
“I am, mom. I see Xuha standing over there on the curb.”
Lola squinted where Teddie was pointing. A young man wearing Zane’s jacket but looking remarkably like a taller Xuha was waving at them with a pleased grin on his face.
“Oh for God’s sake,“ Lola muttered. “This is no time for comedy.”
Xuha stared at his double for a second, a strange look on his face. Then he broke into a grin of his own as he jumped out of the car to help Zane with his bag. The two of them climbed into the back seat laughing. Zane’s features quickly dissolved into his own.
“Thought I’d start my visit off with some of that absolute honesty you’ve been insisting on, mom,” he said. “Might as well have some fun, right?”
“Can you do me?” Teddie asked.
“Of course, but it’d be better with a wig. You’d be surprised how much difference hair makes.”
Lola glanced in the rearview mirror as Zane began to resemble Teddie.
“Would you like to be bright pink?” he asked.
“Oh please! No wait, lime green.”
“Sorry, I can’t do colors I don’t have pigments for,” he explained. “You’ll like the pink, trust me.”
Lola heard Teddie squeal with delight.
“This could be the longest Christmas holiday ever,” Lola muttered, as she merged onto the highway that led home.
Sherrie grew up in Western Kansas thinking that there was no place in the universe more fascinating than outer space. After her mother vetoed astronaut as a career ambition, she went on to study journalism and physics in hopes of becoming a science writer.
She published her first science fiction short story long ago, and then waited a lot of tables while she looked for inspiration for the next story. When it finally came, it declared to her that it had to be whole book, nothing less. One night, while digesting this disturbing piece of news, she drank way too many shots of ouzo with her boyfriend. She woke up thirty-one years later demanding to know what was going on.
The boyfriend, who she had apparently long since married, asked her to calm down and explained that in a fit of practicality she had gone back to school and gotten a degree in geophysics and had spent the last 28 years interpreting seismic data in the oil industry. The good news, according to Mr. Cronin, was that she had found it at least mildly entertaining and ridiculously well-paying The bad news was that the two of them had still managed to spend almost all of the money.
Apparently she was now Mrs. Cronin, and the further good news was that they had produced three wonderful children whom they loved dearly, even though to be honest that is where a lot of the money had gone. Even better news was that Mr. Cronin turned out to be a warm-hearted, encouraging sort who was happy to see her awake and ready to write. “It’s about time,” were his exact words.
Sherrie Cronin discovered that over the ensuing decades Sally Ride had already managed to become the first woman in space and apparently had done a fine job of it. No one, however, had written the book that had been in Sherrie’s head for decades. The only problem was, the book informed her sternly that it had now grown into a six book collection. Sherrie decided that she better start writing it before it got any longer. She’s been wide awake ever since, and writing away.

Only one obstacle stands in his way of enjoying a normal life. He remembers—every life he’s lived before.
Tres is about to be born… with the biggest burden any has ever had to bear. He is beginning again—as an ageless adult trapped in an infant body.
He and his teenage mother face life filled with extraordinary challenges as they strive to protect, nurture, and hide how truly different he is. But Tres alone must solve the greatest mystery of all: who is he? The answer is linked to the one question he’s too afraid to ask: why am I?
In his quest, Tres discovers that all is considerably more interconnected and dynamic than he could ever imagine—and fraught with far more danger. He cannot hide from the unseen threat stalking him since his birth.
Life as he knows it—as all know it—is in peril. And Tres is the only one aware.
I’m one of those that loves to read—anything, really—and always wanted to write, but went along with the adults that believed writing isn’t actually a career or something that makes money to live off of but that is more of an ambitious dream that’s nice to just think about…. like, maybe it’ll happen for some folks once they’ve long retired from their “real career” and can sit around doodling with words on paper. But my urge to write stories, to tap into that other realm where stories come from, kept compelling me decade after decade through different jobs, world travel, different creative ventures. I’d focus on “being a writer” in spurts, but never get to the point of getting my writing actually out there for others to judge or read or consider publishing. Finally, one day, the urge to be the writer I was meant to be was so strong, that I just started doing it. I wrote and wrote, published, gained an audience, and voila! I’m really a writer. It took me a lifetime, it seems, to realize others with the best of intentions are the ones that hold dreamers—all artists?—back, and we just have to realize that we’re the ones that make writing—or any other art—a “real” career. All we have to do is sit and do it. And thankfully, all those years that could’ve detracted from my writing, actually added so many crazy experiences that really add to the realism of my writing, the wealth of imaginative story ideas, and my unique “voice” now. And, as it turns out, I was actually writing all that time: the inner me was finding ways to write, write, write in any job or venture I was involved in… even down to super-long “story” emails to friends. J
2. Tell us something about how you write? i.e. are you a plotter or a pantser? Do you have any weird or necessary writing habits or rituals?
I’m a proud pantser! My process is very simple: start with a tiny story idea, the simpler and less-detailed, the better. Then, I start writing the story from the beginning. I never know how my stories are going to end up—and for me, that’s the whole fun of it. That’s why I write! Every story’s an adventure, a mystery, an experience waiting to unfold. That’s the whole appeal for me. If I’m not having fun writing a story, I imagine no one else is going to enjoy reading it. No outlines exist for my stories. My stories aren’t planned; they’re dreamed. At most, I may get flooded with ideas for a story while writing it, then have to keep up by jotting them all down and maybe needing to put them in chronological order to refer to them later. But I’ve found I’m not happiest with even “fun ideas” in a little list to write into the story; that’s when creative writing turns into academic writing, for me, with a pre-determined end goal, and all the fun is sucked out of it.
3. Do you think people have misconceptions about the speculative fiction? Why do you think it is a worthwhile genre?
Unfortunately, there is that crazy competition among genres—or “genre” vs. “literary.” And everyone wants to categorize all art and put it in neat little boxes with all kinds of limitations for the artists and their art. It’s all insane. And there are definitely strange views of what speculative fiction is, what its limits are, or whether it’s actually “literature” or has any value. More insanity. Of course speculative fiction has value, and it’s incredibly worthwhile to pursue. It’s art, it’s creative, it offers the same expansion of our minds, the introduction of new ideas, much needed escape, discovery of other views and perspectives and people, teaches tolerance, acceptance, etc. that all creative pursuits do. The world needs it, and the more of it, the better. And speculative fiction has long been known to be the genre of storytelling that predicts the future, prepares us for it or warns us about it, or prompts our imagination to think of creative ideas that make our daily lives better right now.
4. What gives you inspiration for your book?
For The One Apart, I woke up one morning with just one interesting sentence in mind as an idea for a brand-new story: “he remembered everything.” It felt really impactful, like the fact that this person remembered “everything” was a big deal, that it wasn’t supposed to happen, something went wrong, or maybe, someone would be really upset to discover this person did remember everything. That was it. And that’s my favorite part of writing. I love having no idea what the story is and just writing to uncover it. I wrote two scenes from that idea and set it aside because I was hoping to write a short story and I knew this idea was “a long one.” And two years later, when I sat down to start writing my first novel, I picked up this story idea again. I knew this one was the idea to run with.
5. Titles have always been extremely difficult for me. How do you come up with yours?
Usually, a single phrase or theme will stand out as I’m writing or after I’ve finished a story: something poignant that just happens to represent or sum up the whole story well, or its tone. Sometimes, there’s a few of these to choose between, and then, when it comes to a novel, you don’t want to “share” the title with other books previously published, so you might have to strain a bit harder to come up with more “perfect” titles that aren’t already used “out there.” That happened for me with The One Apart. The novel’s ending wrote its perfect title, but then I found that exact title was already used by about seven other books just on Amazon! So, I had to choose among the other ideas I had.
6. What else would you like readers to know about you or your work?
I write to explore ideas and satiate my own curiosity. I publish to share the story with others for your own enjoyment. When it’s in your hands, it belongs to you. There’s no intended lesson or meaning or ulterior motive; the novel is for you to interpret, for you to explore and discover. So, I hope you enjoy the heck out of the adventure of reading it!
7. You’re in a tavern, and a dwarf challenges you to a duel. What do you do? Would you do the same thing if the challenger were an ogre? Why or why not?
I accept the duel, but dictate that the choice of weapons is mine alone. I choose pillows!
If the challenger was an ogre, they wouldn’t offer a duel, they’d just attack! And at that point, I’d wake up. J
Tres felt his body abruptly drop around him with overbearing weight, encapsulating him once again.
The mental images, the overpowering memories, finally faded. Only an ominous stillness remained.
Every cell within him began to twitch, infusing with energy—even as he felt immobile. Every joint, tendon, and bone ached under the pressure of being alive.
A deep sadness engulfed him. He pondered possible reasons. And, just as quickly, he was distracted by the presence of his own simple thoughts.
Thoughts. He realized his own thinking.
This mind—certain of its own newness—desired to explore, feel, do, be. Tres opened his eyes—tried to open his eyes. He found his eyelids fused shut.
He opened his mouth. Thick, warm syrup seeped inside his swallow. Intense fear washed over him, even as he knew exactly where—and how—he was.
Oh, no.
Tres was aware, more aware than any had ever been. In this moment, he knew everything—and yet, nothing.
He was beginning again.
Justine Avery is an award-winning author of stories large and small for all. Born in the American Midwest and raised all over the world, she is inherently an explorer, duly fascinated by everything around her and excitedly noting the stories that abound all around. As an avid reader of all genres, she weaves her own stories among them all. She has a predilection for writing speculative fiction and story twists and surprises she can’t even predict herself.
Avery has either lived in or explored all 50 states of the union, over 36 countries, and all but one continent; she lost count after moving 30-some times before the age of 20. She’s intentionally jumped out of airplanes and off the highest bungee jump in New Zealand, scuba dived unintentionally with sharks, designed websites, intranets, and technical manuals, bartered with indigenous Panamanians, welded automobile frames, observed at the Bujinkan Hombu Dojo in Noba, Japan, and masterminded prosperous internet businesses—to name a few adventures. She earned a Bachelor of Arts degree that life has never required, and at age 28, she sold everything she owned and quit corporate life—and her final “job”—to freelance and travel the world as she always dreamed of. And she’s never looked back.
Aside from her native English, Avery speaks a bit of Japanese and a bit more Spanish, her accent is an ever-evolving mixture of Midwestern American with notes of the Deep South and indiscriminate British vocabulary and rhythm, and she says “eh”—like the Kiwis, not the Canadians. She currently lives near Los Angeles with her husband, British film director Devon Avery, and their three adopted children: Becks, Sam, and Lia. She writes from wherever her curiosity takes her.
Avery loves to connect with fellow readers and creatives, explorers and imaginers, and cordially invites you to say “hello”—or konnichiwa.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

FROZEN HEART
Calidora series, the prequel
by Ella Medler
Genre: Time-Travel Fantasy
Quiet and listless, the glass heart sat hidden under layers of unremarkable clutter, its secret safe. The human hands had touched it often through the strata of debris, but until now, had never uncovered it fully.
At last, the yellow duster cut through the grime, and the heart began to shift. It would most likely have frozen over again, up on its high shelf, if the cat’s careless pouncing hadn’t made if fall into a box full of tinsel.
This is how the history of time and place began to change — with the story of the frozen heart.
“I would love to travel in time with you, Mal.”
His answering grin almost turned her knees to jelly, he was that handsome.
“First, you must make sure you don’t lose track of me. I can’t even imagine the trouble you’d get into without me there to guide you.”
Khira hooked the ribbon over her head. If she let go, the glass heart would dangle right over hers, she realized. “Is this okay?” she asked. Mal nodded. “Wait! Do I need anything? Boots? A coat? Cash?”
Mal smiled again. “It won’t matter. I can make you fit in anywhere.” He touched his hand to the wall of glass. “Give me your hand.”
Khira placed the tips of her fingers over his hand. A helix of light burst forth from the heart. It grew and pulsed around her until it became a vortex of colors, twisting and winding around each other like ribbons in a tornado, with her at the center of it all.
She clasped the heart closer to her chest as she felt her body lifting into the air. Just before she started spinning, her window crashed open and a shaggy, furry shape, somewhat reminiscent of Dodo the cat, leapt into the funnel and landed on her shoulder. Khira screamed when the creature’s claws sank into the skin on her back, but she didn’t dare let go of the heart in her hands. The whirlpool of color and motion intensified, and then exploded in a shower of stars.

Ella Medler is a U.K. author and editor. She writes fiction in many genres in a seemingly vain attempt to slow down her overactive brain enough to write non-fiction on subjects she knows a thing or two about. She also does not believe in the starchy use of English and ignores the type of rule that doesn’t allow for a sentence to be finished in a preposition. Her books are action-driven, and well-developed characters are her forte. Loves: freedom. Hates: her inner censor.
The Oath: Maddy and Silenus
by Susan Badaracco
GENRE: fantasy adventure
The book will be $.99 during the tour!!!!
When her past merges with her present, Maddy is not sure what to think. Was that really an abduction she witnessed? Does she have the courage to find out?
Silenus is a unicorn haunted by his past failure to protect his charge. He trains relentlessly but is he fierce enough to protect this innocent? Will she even trust him?
Can a mortal and immortal pursue the truth together or will Maddy pay the ultimate price?
I’m a pediatrician. I spent my childhood bandaging up my friends and peering in a microscope that my grandmother bought for Christmas when she discovered my interest. Some students find it difficult to decide what field of medicine to choose, I did not. The day a toddler wandered out of an exam room, found me in a back office catching up on my note writing, and climbed in my lap…cinched it. They’re worth it. The lost sleep, the missed holidays, the aggravations of searching for past records…it just doesn’t matter when you walk in the room and see that flushed, glassy eyed kiddo with a fever.
2, What made you want to become a writer?
The kids. It all started as an idea for a fundraiser. The Children’s Advocacy center needed donations, and I wanted to think of something different to generate funds. It’s important. They work to convict sex offenders and provide counseling for the child victims. It’s important because it they were not there, I would be taking down these children’s stories, doing their sexual assault exams, finding resources for counseling. I would do it, but it would be the equivalent of jumping into the ocean to save a child when you can’t swim yourself.
Oh, I was trained to do this type work, but there is no preparation for hearing the stories…in their young, innocent voices. You think your head will explode, and you don’t sleep. But there are individuals suited for this type work, I’ve met them, and I want to support them.
So, I started writing the book and fell in love in the process. Spent so many years on the left side of my brain, almost forgot I had a right side. It’s been great fun.
3. Do you think people have misconceptions about the speculative fiction? Why do you think it is a worthwhile genre?
I’m new to writing, but I believe that writing fiction is harder than writing a biography for instance. Creating characters, writing dialog for them and providing settings… all pretty hard. Mixing in even more elements- magic, future technologies, imaginary languages and now your juggling even more details. It’s slippery. You want to draw this reader into your world without overwhelming them (the great sin of information dumping).
We’ve all read books where you felt you tumbled into the foreign scene to quickly, got up feeling overwhelmed and ran for the door. Too much, you said, as you shut it firmly behind you. The misconceptions about this genre come from some past bad experiences.
But when you read a good example….like Harry Potter…it can change our entire culture.
4. Could you tell us a bit about your most recent book?
Maddy operates from her heart. She is scared, reluctant to get involved when girls disappear from a teen shelter. But she can’t really help herself. Not after she befriends one of the girls that live there…
The unicorn who is charged to protect her, Silenus, is driven by his strict code of honor…but also his past failures. When he set out to defend his young charges, he didn’t realize the implications when he was not successful. His sanity is on the line.
5. What gives you inspiration for your book?
I want to have this current that runs through my books that speaks to the strength of girls. The world can be challenging, we can work on changing that… but in the meantime…let’s strengthen our children to prepare them for what’s ahead. Give them codes of honor to live by. Remind them of the need for friendship, courage and responsibility. It’s a little like brainwashing…but nicer.
6. What is your favorite writing tip or quote?
My love for writing took me a bit by surprise, so this quote seems appropriate-
“You will recognize your own path when you come upon it because you will suddenly have all the energy and imagination you will ever need.” different websites credit different authors – it was either Jerry Gillies or Sara Teasdale.
7. Tell us a little about your plans for the future. Do you have any other books in the works?
I’m working on a second book in “The Oath” series. In contrast to Maddy’s reluctance to get involved, Ashton can’t wait to get in on the action!
I’m working on the book description….
Ashton thought life would be perfect once she got that new handbag.
Fashionable clothes, trendy shoes…she had everything a girl could dream about. Until that morning…when she has lost everything.
Now, Ashton desires only one thing….Revenge.
Egorn had his own reasons for vengeance.
He wants to punish those responsible for the annihilation of his family.
Orphaned when he was young, he trains relentlessly to become a unicorn warrior. Nothing else matters. Until that morning….when he realized that protecting her was more important than anything else.
Can a unicorn who has no fighting experience protect an innocent who has no concern for her own safety?
Mr. Sheldon turned slowly, releasing Allison from his grip. “Excuse me,” he said softly, ominously, “what did you say?”
Maddy looked up, caught his menacing glare a moment before his face relaxed back into a more benign expression. Slowly, deliberately, he strolled back to the center of the room, placed his hands on his hips and tilted his head in mock confusion. Maddy’s grip tightened on her notebook until her knuckles whitened. Her stomach rolled, churned.
It was as if all noise was sucked out of the room, as if all the surrounding white walls absorbed every acoustic and left the room as bereft of noise as it was of color. She opened her mouth to answer but snapped it shut again under his intense scrutiny. He nodded to himself and pressed his lips together in irritation.
Susan Badaracco is the author and independent publisher of “The Oath: Maddy and Silenus”.
In her real life, she is a pediatrician at Kids First Pediatrics where she routinely consoles anxious moms, retrieves interesting objects hidden in ears and laughs at made up knock-knock jokes.
