	Lyrical Ramblings	by Stacy Stutz Feb. 05, 2012	Free!	4213 words	Read a sample
	Author bio: Hi there! I never can seem to write a formal personal bio that is to my liking; it simply isn’t in my nature to be staid and proper and furthermore, referring to myself as “she” drives me a bit nuts. I’ve read that you should put your name in your bio as often as possible to drive traffic your way, I’m not interested in a virtual freeway, I much prefer the slower pace of winding roads with glorious vista’s unfolding over the rise. At heart, I am a poet; I would have my readers be those that also enjoy the journey, that take joy in life’s small moments of discovery. I am content that those who find me are those who pulled off life’s busy freeway even for a moment or two. I’m a mom, a wife, an avid reader, a writer and a poet – longest being the poet or perhaps the avid reader. My first (and so far only) contribution here at Smashwords is more of a biography that I could every write here. Lyrical Ramblings is the compilation of decades of poetic musings – they are as mercurial as a woman’s moods; they are the reflection of who I was, who I am and who I strive to be. Thank you to those of you who have downloaded my work and even more to those of you who have taken the time to leave a review! Currently, I’m working on a compilation of quirky short stories and hope to have them available in early Spring of 2012. Also, you should check out Mike Stutz's writings. No doubt I am biased, but he is a fantastic writer. ~Stacy

	Dreaming of Kittyland	by D.C. Blackbird Jan. 27, 2012	$0.99	1344 words	Sample 20%
	Author bio: D.C. Blackbird is an American poet, songwriter, and author, along with being a world-renowned adventurer and traveler to places that stamp passports with bark and tree sap. In case you never heard, D.C. is one of the world's greatest feather & leaf jugglers and has performed this great skill before Royal Courts throughout Europe as well as in diners throughout New Jersey between snacking on corn muffins. You probably know that D.C. is the best-selling author of titles that include: Jekyll Says … (Good Deeds Cats Do, That You Should, To!), Jekyll Says More! (Lessons & Trends For Felines & Friends), and Dreaming of Kittyland, but there is more to this remarkable human being, so please don’t just judge D.C. by the pretty words. Blackbird is one of “those vegans” you have probably heard about and maybe you have even seen hanging out at health stores ordering wheat grass juice. But don’t worry! D.C. does not glow in the dark (except after drinking grape juice), but veganism IS contagious. You have been warned. Oh, yeah, and D.C. is also one of those animal-loving folks that cares for dogs, cats, birds, and runs into traffic with a cardboard box to save turtles in the middle of the road. If you ask nicely, D.C. Blackbird may be available to come to your home for Roasted Tempeh and Marzipan treats. But the main stuff you are interested in is that D.C. is dedicated to telling stories about awesome experiences and adventures with cool earthlings around the world, and teaching readers to be compassionate to all living beings, while promoting and encouraging goodness, civic virtues, high principles, and values.

	Your Only Shiny Thing	by Thomas Maluck Jan. 20, 2012	$1.99	3000 words	Sample 30%
	Author bio: "Is this how an iPod works?" the profile picture asked. It is a staged photo of confusion and experimentation because that is what my first ebook, "Your Only Shiny Thing," represents. It is a collection of poems from the past several years meant to clear my creative slate and allow me to experience the self-publishing ebook process. I'm a librarian and ebooks represent an industry shift as well as an opportunity to help budding writers in my community. Formatting an ebook in Word was rather painless. I hope to do it many more times in my self-published ventures and encourage others to "clear the slate" of their finished works.
