Hi all, I just wanted to welcome everyone. I want to tell you all a little about myself.

I'm 44 years old. I was born in Bessemer, AL on Oct. 3, 1964. I have one brother who is 6 years younger than I am. I don't do this a whole lot because it's hard to talk about myself bur here goes.

I raised my brother since I was 11 years old. He was 5. We still had our parents but they both had to work so it was up to me to take care of him. I never had much of a childhood because I had to grow up fast so I never did the sports or things that kids are supposed to do.

I became a loner and to this day, I don't like big crowds. I started writing about 4 years ago and to be honest with you, I never thought I could. I started writing fanfictions and I found o Hi all, I just wanted to welcome everyone. I want to tell you all a little about myself.

I raised my brother since I was 11 years old. He was 5. We still had our parents but they both had to work so it was up to me to take care of him. I never had much of a childhood because I had to grow up fast so I never did the sports or things that kids are supposed to do.

I became a loner and to this day, I don't like big crowds. I started writing about 4 years ago and to be honest with you, I never thought I could. I started writing fanfictions and I found out that people actully loved them. I have had over 70,000 people read my stories.

Everyone said I needed to write a book but I didn't think I could. My husband encouraged me, however and I wrote Bad Company in 2008.

Also in 2008 I had my second and third book published. The name of my second is Head Games and the third is Darkness Falls. The name of the fourth is The Betrayal and I am still working on that.

I never thought that anyone would buy my books but they've surprised me and I am just now beginning to make a profit.

My books are about two brothers that hunt the supernatural but that's not all they're about. They're also about family, and how either brother would do anything to save the other, even if it meant dying. It'a about love and loyalty and a lot of things that have been pretty scarce in my life. When I write about Matt McCannon, a lot of what he is going through mentally is what I've been going through in my life. I can see myself in him and I can see myself in Zack also.

I put both brothers through a lot of mental torture but especially, Matt. Zack takes care of him. He's always there for him no matter what and he would do anything for his little brother.

I like to think that even though I am a loner, I like to think that I would do anything for my friends no matter what it is and I hope that my friends would do anything for me. If everybody just cared about each other, life would be a whole lot better.

I just wanted to share and let you all know a little about me.

Sheila

The Betrayal: Prologue and Chapter 1

Prologue

He roamed through the cave, listening to the sounds around him. Water dripped into an underground pool further down, the drops spaced several seconds apart and the splash echoing off the rocks. Sand and pebbles crunched under his feet, and wind whistled across the cave opening, all of it familiar. He’d walked that cave a million times for a million different reasons. His domain—where he d Read more of this blog post »

I have a question. Has anyone read Rob Thurman's book, "Deathwish?" I want to know if Cal dies at the end. I don't know if I want to finish it if he does. I've kind of fell in love with Nik and Cal Leandros.

Bad Company follows the exploits of Zack and Matt, two brothers who have been hunting the supernatural for some time. Together, they save people from things that go bump in the night, things that most people don’t even believe exist. They travel to New Orleans to help a friend of Zack’s. Things change for the worse there when they get tangled up with a Voodoo Priest who gains control of Matt’s mind through the ancient art of Voodoo. Under evil influence, Matt is dictated to kill his own brother and then himself. As Zack struggles to reach his brother before he himself becomes a sacrifice, time begins to run out fast. Will he be able to save their lives before it’s too late? Read the book to find out.

Bad Company is enrolled in Xlibris’ Book Returnability Program which gives booksellers the convenient option of returning excess stocks through Ingram. For more information, log on to www.Xlibris.com.
