Library of Dreams
Library of Dreams
Overview
The secret dream home of a poor teenaged boy…
The recurring nightmare of a federal agent…
Stolen dreams sold as drugs…
Forbidden dreams running rampant into the waking world…
Dream lovers, dream captors, dream saviours and dream kings…
Dreams can be hopes, dreams can be visions, dreams can be prophesies, and dreams can be horrors. They cross over into our waking hours or are forgotten just before dawn. They prompt us to take new chances in our lives, or replace a life we can’t bear to face. Dreams are both another world and our own.

About the Author
JC McDowell grew up chasing street cars around the city of New Orleans, Louisiana. She chased the love of her life to the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains where she discovered her dream to write. New Orleans beckoned her home again, where her dreams became a reality. A graduate of Louisiana State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in History, JC currently works at a top rated law firm in the southeast, continuing to chase street cars in her spare time.
Kim Fry is a wife, mother and writer who makes her life in Casper, Wyoming. Her work is currently posted on Wattpad at http://www.wattpad.com/user/KimFry. Her horror/thriller, Scream for Him, won the 2012 Watty Award for ‘On the Rise’ in horror and made it to the second round of the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award Contest. It has been read on Wattpad nearly 1.5 million times, and will be published in 2014. She recently published a short story entitled Dead Girl Walking in an anthology called Library of Dreams. With numerous other stories in the works, she writes many genres, including fantasy, horror, thriller and paranormal.
Once upon a time, Yzabel Ginsberg made a deal with the God of Dreams, whom they might have swindled out of a few extra seeds of wild imagination. From their current home in London, this strange French being always clad in black weaves many webs of stories, whether on paper or through the delicate art of online storytelling. Rumour has it that they will only stop when Death comes to claim them, but even that is less than certain.
Emerald Delmara is a writer, college student, and avid collector of books who loves to work with herbal remedies. Growing up on a farm in the Ouachita Mountains, she spent her days reading every book she could get her hands on, dreaming of fictional characters, and roaming the countryside with her beloved pets. Most of her writing inspiration comes from mythology. She believes magic is essential to her stories, which she hopes to have in bookstores one day. She currently resides in Oklahoma with her family and her dog.
Katherine A. Ganzel began writing late in life, starting her first novel when her children were nearly grown. She has published The Stolen Hearts Trilogy on Wattpad.com where the first two books were finalists in the 2012 and 2013 Watty’s. Her next story, The Boy in the Woods, was a Talk of the Town winner in the 2014 Watty’s. The prequel to The Boy in the Woods, The Man Behind the Iron Fence: Jonathon’s Story is completed and can be found on Wattpad.
In addition to The Boy in the Woods, he has one published short story, Finding Marty, which was included in the anthology, Library of Dreams.
Currently residing in Ann Arbor, Michigan, she shares her home with her husband and many pets.
Maya Starling is a writer, a geek, an animal lover and a gamer. A native Croatian, she writes biographies of fictional characters, both short and long. Her four-legged, fury minions are rather useless because they always do as they please. She publishes most of her works for free on Wattpad under username Maya_2011. Her story, ‘The Red Menace’, is published on NOSF, a Croatian portal promoting SF&F. She hopes to one day find her novels on the shelves in the bookstores.
The truth is, Len Webster is a romance-loving Melburnian with dreams of finding her own chance at love. She calls Australia home, but secretly wishes a man with a beautiful accent would whisk her away. She’s been called a hopeless romantic and a firm believer of happily ever afters, which she doesn’t object to. When Len isn’t acting as the voice of her characters, you can find her drowning in business textbooks as she slaves over her Bachelor degree.
