Behind the Story
Here you will find
our Free Textbook Material -- and free professional stories to read plus
closeups on the books by our Writers In Residence.
Some are reprints, some original online publications for the general reader to enjoy.
The student of writing or the curious reader will find "out-takes" and early drafts of published works,
outlines, notes, brainstorming scribbles, "Partials," submission drafts and selling-outlines, free
chapters of published novels, articles about those novels and universe building
behind them -- all texts for study and discussion --
Personal pages, essays, links, plans, insights, biography,
bibliography and ways to contact the professional writers whose works
are showcased here.
Writers currently include: a growing number in our
Spotlights section, plus Jacqueline Lichtenberg, Jean Lorrah, Anne
Phyllis Pinzow, Lois Wickstrom, Margaret L. Carter, and Elizabeth
Caldwell.

Spokes is an international poetry e-zine that welcomes poetry, short
fictional prose and images of all kinds - with a particular interest in
the culturally engaged and the fantastic. Spokes is 'published' twice
yearly.
In its past incarnation as an international poetry magazine, Spokes
published poetry by Benjamin Zephaniah, Jean Binta Breeze, Dannie Abse,
Peter Porter, John James, Shanta Acharya and many many more. Alistair
Wisker and Gina Wisker were its co-editors for the last 12 years or so.
Joining simegen.com in 2005, Spokes is now open to submissions of poetry and
short fiction as well as images.
There is currently no payment to authors, but we expect this venue to be very
popular.
This is the second e-zine to use simegen.com/writers/ as a launch platform
into e-publishing.
Large numbers of out-takes, early drafts, whole stories that have
been published, then incorporated into novels, working outlines, and
"Partials" - submission packages.
Feral Vampire by
Jacqueline Lichtenberg - another novel-partial but here only the first chapter has been
published as a short story. This is the prequel to Those of My Blood.

Master -- a Partial by Jacqueline Lichtenberg, writing as Daniel R. Kerns, used as an
example in the Editing The
Novel course by Bonnee Pierson and Silke Juppenlatz

E-books.
"The If
Only Project"
a rough draft of the E-Book IF ONLY by Renee Austin, editorial
commentary, author's response, and full rewrite of that novel, retitled
WYSIWYG, now published.
This is one of the most valuable textbook items if you go
over to awe-struck
and pick up the FINAL version of this novel, WYSIWYG, and study
all of this, you will sell your next novel that you begin to draft from
scratch (rather than trying to salvage older material)
Search for "Jean Lorrah" or "Jacqueline Lichtenberg" or any
of the authors mentioned here to find a list of available novels. Or find
out-of-print titles for Jacqueline
Lichtenberg or Jean Lorrah at alibris.
