Carol Cadoo Featured Author of the week July 13th, 2014

Hi Everybody Welcome To My Author Page
I am so glad you are here a little information to stay informed if you will. Click that button to your right and you can get on the Amazon email list for my new releases. Drop by the Carol Cadoo Bookstore giving it “Facetime” where I hang out daily. Answering questions and talking to my favorite people in the world Carol’s readers LOL. I hope you enjoy your visit feel free to cruise around the site and get to know me and my peeps LOL. I love writing Chick Lit/ Romance. I recently re-edited and reapplied the lipstick of my Chic Lit Serial, Deja Vu of Love. The series starts off with Deja Vu of Love The Beginning which of course is the first book of the story in the Deja Vu Series. As a writer I am partial to using a third person multiple POV style of writing. Although not well known it is frequently used in Romance and other genre’s where multiple point of views add to the depth and value of the story line,and character interactions.
I also prefer moving the story along through the use of dialogue versus narrative. I think it’s because I enjoy giving a distinct voice to all my characters. As a writer I believe that dialogue helps define the characters as people. I write about real women with flaws who are strong and confident and ready to live life. I really enjoy watching my characters grow and change as the story of their lives unfolds. I try not to be to much of a control freak and let the characters write the story, after all it is there life.
So if you are a reader who likes to hear the voice of your characters and share their POV I am your next favorite writer LOL
Just a little something about me I am a retired Actress, Director,Choreographer, who discovered her real passion in life, was writing.
I have two sons Zachary and Garette my oldest son Zach just made a gift of a daughter of love Keri and her beloved girl Starla into my life. I also have two doggie kids Hazel and Harry. My free time is spent in the garden enjoying nature, decorating, and writing. I would love to have feedback from readers I think we are always curious about what people think of our work.
So, here is my suggestion go get a great glass of red wine, start the bubble bath grab a couple of chocolate covered caramels with sea salt. Then enjoy a little you time with a good book. I hope you love and enjoy reading the characters with minimally twice the enjoyment I had writing them to life.
Please pass the link to my book page to your address and Facebook people;if you believe I am worthy of a personal recommendation.
May you enjoy all the bad boys of romance with none of the pain.

Ladies and Gentlemen May I Introduce You to Sherrie Hill

June 4, 2014 by Cleve Sylcox

Sherrie Hill

Sherrie Hill was born in Southeastern Illinois, near Hickory Hill (The Old Slave House). Her grandmother and great-aunts instilled the importance of knowing the past. The teaching tools they used were storytelling and piling the children in the back of an old pickup truck and hitting the back roads, on what would usually be the hottest, driest, dustiest days of summer, to visit the old country settlements of their youth. (‘Visiting’ meant driving by, telling stories and stopping if there was still an old country store that sold ‘ice cold’ Coca Cola, then heading off to the next settlement.) Growing up in a time when children were to be ‘seen and not heard’ lends to a lot of listening.

Ladies and Gentlemen May I Introduce You to Norm Clark

April 17, 2014 by Cleve Sylcox

Norm Clark has two action packed thriller novels available (“Resurrected” and the recently published “The Saladin Strategy”) in the Jack McDuff series in ebook and print formats. Work has begun on number three.
The genre and writing style of his work was dictated by his upbringing and choice of friends through the years. He was born and raised in a military environment, which, to a large degree, set the tone for the genre. Input and stories from friends (a couple of Navy Seals, a Force Recon marine, and a Viet Nam era Air America pilot) greatly influenced the plot-lines and writing style.
