As a child, Rhonda Herrington Bulmer was a voracious reader, a lover of fantasy, fairy tales and happy endings. She began her first novel at age 15, a romantic sleuth story which was loved by the author but rejected by publishers. Despite encouragement from editors to persevere, her desire to write languished in a drawer, along with that first manuscript. Born and raised in New Brunswick, Canada, Rhonda graduated from Durham College of Applied Arts and Technology in Oshawa, Ontario with a diploma in public relations in 1987. Upon graduation, Rhonda practiced public relations in the Maritimes, and also worked in graphic design. Later, she offered freelance services at home while raising her three children. Later still, study with the Institute for Children's Literature helped revive her adolescent writing dream. Currently, she provides copywriting services to local businesses and submits general interest articles and columns. She is a member of the Professional Writers Association of Canada (www.monctonwriters.ca). Rhonda lives in Moncton, New Brunswick with her husband and three children, where she can recite her favorite book, "Where the Wild Things Are," by Maurice Sendak, from memory. "Rachel's Manifesto" is her first novel.

I believe I was fortunate to have been born and raised in Edinburgh, Scotland, a wonderful city with deep artistic and cultural roots, all of which I fully absorbed. Of course the pleasant, positive aspects of Edinburgh are equally well balanced by the darker, sinister side, past and present, of which I both enjoyed, and endured, my quota. I have worked and lived across the world for over twenty eight years, and am now, tapping into the subterranean recesses inside my cranium to bring to the surface my experiences and observations, god, bad and ugly. I love writing; it stretches me to reflect, to delve deeper, and perhaps, hopefully to even darker places. TMK

It has been a year since Konstancji’s lover passed away, but rather than move on with his life, Konstancji works obsessively on a statue, which is the means through which he hopes to bring his beloved back from the dead. “Out of the Depths” is a gothic retelling of the “Pygmallion” myth.
Author bio:
I’ve lived most of my life in the San Fran­cisco Bay Area though I wasn’t born there (or, indeed, the USA). I’m mar­ried with no kids and three cats, am a cycling nut (go Team Garmin!), and my day job involves art­work, crazy (read: incom­pre­hen­si­bly fun) cowork­ers who spe­cial­ize in all kinds of media, and the occa­sional strange cus­tomer requests involv­ing papier mache fish with sparkly scales. I’m a writer of young adult fic­tion, spe­cial­iz­ing in con­tem­po­rary fan­tasy, his­tor­i­cal fan­tasy, and his­tor­i­cal gen­res. My books range from a super­hero fan­tasy series to reworked folk­tales to Vic­to­rian ghost fic­tion. My themes are coming-of-age, with very lit­tle focus on romance (most of the time) and more on indi­vid­ual growth with some adven­ture thrown in. Start­ing 2011, I’ll be writ­ing and pub­lish­ing adult fic­tion titles, all of which will be pretty much com­ple­ments of my cur­rent YA back­list. My adult fic­tion titles will be some­thing like the “grownup” ver­sions of the kinds of sto­ries I love writing.

Author bio:
Living in an ancient Mayan world nestled in the virgin jungles of the Yucatan has given my 12 year old daughter Landis and I encounters of a lifetime. Our Mayan friends have shared with us many secrets of their culture and we have experienced many of their customs and ceremonies. There are many mysteries and legends of this ancient race, and my daughter Landis and I started this series to share some of these fascinating traditions in a fun mystery book which educates the readers not only into the everyday life of the traditional Mayans still living in pueblitos but into authentic ancient customs through flashbacks in the book. Landis and I are Canadian, so I am thrilled that my daughter is completely fluent in her second language of Spanish, so we added some easy-to-remember Spanish words to teach readers a little of the language. All of the facts throughout the book are true, but they are presented in an entertaining fictional style with a closing message of integrity and wholesomeness. We are writing our next Landis Adventure book called “The Mystery at Isla Mujeres”, which takes place on a beautiful island nestled off the coast of Cancun, in the aquamarine waters of the Caribbean Sea.
