About the Author

________________________________________________________

Author Marijon Braden

Artwork by Tanya Gleadall at www.tanyagleadall.com

Marijon was born and raised in New Jersey, which may help to explain her attitude towards charlatans and idiots. She started writing stories at an early age, her first literary influences being Walter Farley, author of the ‘Black Stallion’ series, and Carolyn Keene, of ‘Nancy Drew’ fame.  That’s probably why her earliest efforts involved a young girl detective who solved crime on horseback.

She had a very happy childhood, did well in school, and was a fairly obedient daughter until she went away to college.  The original plan was to major in journalism.  She wrote for the college paper until she realized that wasn’t the kind of writing she wanted to do when she grew up.  So she switched to education.  That was not, perhaps, the smartest move.

Then, life happened.  Jobs, rent, husband, baby, another husband, another baby, until she found herself a stay-at-home mom, about to chew her foot off if she had to watch one more episode of ‘Barney.’  So, she started to write again.

She still lives in New Jersey with her husband, daughter, two cats and a very spoiled cocker spaniel.  Her older daughter is off in Oregon, fighting the good fight for the homeless.  She loves to cook – and eat – and plays RPG  games on her Xbox when she needs to decompress (Skyrim alone cost her months of her life). During the past few years, she has lost, and tragically found again, the same twenty pounds.  Life is all about trying, failing, and trying harder.

She writes in her downstairs office, surrounded by her growing collection of gargoyles. Smoke, Wings and Stone is her first YA novel.

Author Feature: Jason D. Morrow

You may have seen him on Day 3 of the Share The Love Campaign. But I met Jason when he asked me to make the cover art for his next epic series on Amazon.

But today we’ll be featuring…

Description:

“Nineteen-year-old Mora is on a mission to save her village from the relentless greyskins, and there is only one man that can help her, Jeremiah of Screven. As she travels the wastelands, she discovers a power within herself, a power she believes no other human possesses. That is, until she meets others like her – the ones who call themselves the Starborn. These super-humans are on a mission also: to destroy the undead greyskins, and take down the greedy Jeremiah. Mora must now choose between the one who can keep her family safe, and those that can show her who she truly is.

This story explores romance, betrayal, and death, 60 years into a zombie apocalypse. Recommended for ages 16 and up.”

Reviews:

Zombie action, paranormal powers, and romance make for a real winner.

I got to the final page and screamed aloud, Jason!

Best book I have read in a long time! ”

Don’t worry – Book Two is in the works! ;)

Now, if fantasy is more your style, you should check out The Marenon Chronicles:

“Prophecies are not always clear. That is what seventeen-year-old Silas Ainsley learns when he finds himself in a realm called Marenon.
The people of Marenon are nearing the brink of war and many of them claim that Silas is the fulfillment of an ancient prophecy that will deliver them from the dreaded Stühocs. The prophecy, however, was unclear as to whom Silas would save.
Each group wants to use him for their own purposes, and he doesn’t know who is trustworthy. With the help of a lawless band of mercenaries, Silas must take a mysterious journey to uncover the meaning of the prophecy before Marenon falls to ruin.
The only way to get to Marenon is to die, and Silas has just arrived.”

Thanks So Much!

THANK YOU!

I just wanted to thank ALL of you for your likes, kind comments and reblogs this past weekend! I truly have THE BEST followers on the planet!

I’m so glad you all enjoyed the SHARE THE LOVE CAMPAIGN. I’d never done anything like that before, but everything went far better than I expected. I hope you found some new books to read and new authors to follow – I know I did!

If you missed any of the SHARE THE LOVE days, go ahead and check them out:

Day 1
Day 2
Day 3

And feel free to download the STLC images if you’d like to host your own event!

I also hosted a giveaway for my most recent publication, The Sire, on Amazon. Now, I’m always a little nervous when I share the results of a giveaway, so no teasing! :P

Amazon US >> 1,502 downloads

Amazon UK >> 462 downloads

Amazon DE >> 24 downloads

Amazon CA >> 8 downloads

Amazon FR >> 4 downloads

Amazon JP >> 2 downloads

TOTAL = 2,002 free books sent out to the masses

Is it awesome? I don’t know. Do I like math? Definitely not. But I do know that even if only 1% of those readers leave a review, that will be 20 new reviews I didn’t have before. And that is awesome.

Again, thank you for reading, sharing, and downloading this weekend! I really enjoy sharing new books and authors with everyone. Maybe some of you are asking yourselves why I post as much if not more about other people’s book than my own, but it’s rather simple. I want everyone to love getting lost in a story as much as I do. When I watch my son take out every book on his shelf, spreading them out all over the floor so you can barely walk through, I smile. And when I see him pretending to read them to his stuffed animals, I’m never more happy. Books are a portal to our imagination and imagination is what makes our world evolve. Stories of robots and space travel were written long before they’d actually been created. Books of horror help us face our fears. And fantasy tales can truly make that which is surreal real, all while teaching us lessons of bravery, loyalty, and illustrating that constant clash of good and evil.

So, don’t wait ’til you’re bored. Don’t wait for some teacher or professor to make an assignment out of it. Don’t wait… JUST READ!

That’s all I’ve got for you today. But check back later this week for an incredible author feature! ;)

Take care!
