I found my love for all things tragic, passionate, and historic after taking a mythology course in college. The book wasn't Romeo and Juliet, as you might suspect, but Dante's Inferno, Oedipus, The Iliad, and a few other Greek tragedies. An artist by profession, I traded my paintbrush for a pen, and began to explore the realm of romance. In... more »

    Read about a tribal society where women issues are all together different. 'Afghanistan: A Volatile Country', is a book to inform those who are directly and indirectly affected by not only the current events in this at-war country, but by its affects on Pakistan. Emphasizes Afghan relations with both neighboring Pakistan and the United States. This book delves into the forty years of relative peace and prosperity Afghanistan experienced before falling into the shadow of civil war and emerging into the era of the Taliban. Soviet assistance to the Marxist PDPA garnered support for Afghan fighters from the U.S., Europe, and other Arab nations, weakening the local government and laying the foundation for the rise of the anarchy. But clear purpose of this book is to inform and clarify in as simple and dispassionate manner as possible, yet without shying away such stirring issues as women’s rights and the events of September 11.

    The book is published in United States and is available on www.amazon.com as well.

    Hi Kimberly!
    80k in three months? Girl!! I am impressed! I can't wait to read your books, I know I am going to LOVE them! Like you, I'm addicted to the contest loop, too. I have been judging a number of contests, and there are some very talented writers out there.

    I finished revisions of "The Diddikai" and submitted the full manuscript to Medallion Press. They called me this weekend...they've accepted it. "Fire at Midnight" will be coming out first, in March 2009, and then the second one sometime in 2010. Those two are the only ones I've finished so far, so I'd better get busy!

    It was great to hear from you! Drop me a reminder noteo when your book comes out so I can buy it!

    Thanks for the invite. Congrats on your sell. Your debut book sounds good. I do enjoy a good medieval.
    I liked the motto on your website -- to read is to experience life.

    Hi, Kimberly! Welcome to Shelfari. It's much easier to deal with than myspace, and all we discuss is books, books books!

    If you run contests for your book, you might consider the contest group. Search groups for contest and it should come up. If not, let me know and I'll send you an invitation.
