Reason #1 why you want to buy Alpha and Omega

Paimarire’s story Hope amid War is a dystopian story and, as they say, a page turner.

Reason #2 why you want to buy Alpha and Omega

We All Meet in the Stars by Phil Devine is a fascinating real-life account of how Phil provided free viewings through his relatively powerful telescope.

It was a celebration of the 2009 International Year of Astronomy in the desert heart of Australia in Alice Springs. Superbly told, this story is a wonderful and surprising tribute to the human spirit.

Reason #3 why you want to buy Alpha and Omega

A young story-teller is 16-year-old Sarah L Wilson.

Her futuristic story, First Do no Harm, is set in a youth orphanage. It is a tough exciting moral tale which breathlessly rushes the reader to its denouement.

Reason #4 why you want to buy Alpha and Omega

Journey’s End by Sue Sander is a modern classic about the death of a loved one.

Without giving the plot away, I will simply say you will remember this one long after the last word. Superb.

Reason #5 why you want to buy Alpha and Omega

Anne Olsson’s A Step Too Far is a brilliant telling of the progress through life of a group of high-school friends.

Distinctly Australian, the story nonetheless will touch the international soul.

Reason #6 why you want to buy Alpha and Omega

Some people believe that self-promotion is an evil of the modern age.

I will simply say, you may enjoy my quirky suspense story The One About the Farmer's Daughters

Reason #7 why you want to buy Alpha and Omega

There are another 15 stories, not to mention good poems and attractive artwork.

All this is at a most reasonable price given the collective labors of love that have produced it.
