To understand Sheila Hall’s unique writing one has to know her equally unique background. Born
on a US Military base in Germany and grew up moving from place to place – all this giving her the
opportunity to see things of the world otherwise left uncovered which today reflects in her
expressive and thrilling writing style.
She went to college, switched majors several times, and decided that learning was much more fun
than getting the actual degree.
Today she is an able book reviewer who owns more books than the average small town library,
with works ranging from Urban Fantasy to Classic Literature. With her ability to read through
complete books in just a few short hours, she has wrought her soul into the minds of great authors
and endless stream of literary works.
Now Sheila is venturing into the world as an expressive writer of warm and emotional Erotic- and
General-literature, using her gifts and past experiences to awe whomever may read it.

Aly Ann Morlock is a nineteen-year young writer from Upstate New York. Embracing
her ‘individuality’ (also known as her ‘being weird’), she has broken into the world of
colored hair, piercings, and tattoos while never quite fitting into the stereotype so
kindly placed upon people that choose to do the same.
Always a reader, Aly has been writing since she can remember; her first stories were
written about her cats and the adventures that brought them to live with her. Since
then, she has moved through young writing and a terrible fantasy phase to settle on
writing realistic fiction and some sci-fi.
One personal goal of Aly’s is to give her readers a believable, realistic tale, even when
writing a world different from our own; creating characters that aren’t perfect and
stories that tell truths that are buried by society. Unafraid of the dark and dirty topics
but also working to see the good around us, she tries to encompass all of humanity not just the parts we wish to see, hoping to open
the minds of her readers to what’s really out there.
She is currently editing her first novel On the Path to Perfection, a story about a sixteen year old and his physical and mental journey to
find peace after a traumatic past and (sometimes) present and eventually hopes to publish that work.

Gabi Daniels is originally from Chicago and now lives in the Southeast with her husband and two
young children. More specifically, Knoxville, TN. To her Yankee friends, this fact is a bottomless pit
of hillbilly jokes, requests for banjo playing and stupid questions. For example; do you even have a
Walmart there? Do you live in a cabin? When are you getting a goat? From Gabi’s fashionista friends;
How far do you have to drive to get to a “real” mall?
Gabi enjoys skiing, hiking, volunteering, organizing and cleaning. She will not partake in any form of
gossip and works out religiously.
Okay, so that’s bull. She sits in front of her computer in yoga pants, hair up in a ponytail, and writes
romance novels. Gabi reads at least three books a week and runs a blog where she talks about all
things books. She also has a secret stash of chocolate chip cookie dough in the freezer for emergencies.
