Finding new authors is hard. Gimmicks are everywhere. Catchy sprayed edges, beautiful artwork that may or may not relate to the story's content, and free paraphernalia abound. Don't get me wrong, I will buy a book for the pretty cover and free matching bookmark, but sometimes I want to get a feel for the author's style before I commit to a purchase.  This is why I have a lot of writing available for free through Wattpad and Amazon KU (Kindle Unlimited). I want to give readers a taste test so they can decide for themselves if they want to invest in me. If they read my free work and decide it's not for them, no harm was done and no money was lost.  The following are short snippets of what I offer for free to my readers!
