New Fairfield, CT, February 4, 2012 — Indie author Gregory S. Slomba has published his first novel, “The Deliverers: Sharky and the Jewel”. The book, a fantasy for children ages 9 to 13, is currently available on Amazon.com and CreateSpace.com, and as an e-book for Kindle.
The book is about 12 year old Eric Scott, who has recently lost his father in a hiking accident. Then he meets Stig, an owl from another world. Together, they are sent to deliver Calendria, a small fishing village, from Sharky, an immortal pirate captain that has enslaved them.
When they arrive, they meet Kate Endria, who is convinced that they are The Deliverers—heroes of an ancient prophecy who are destined to defeat Sharky and his crew. Eric devises a plan. His confidence rises when they rescue Hallo Tosis, an outcast dwarf who gives them the key to a powerful weapon. But it’s only after things go horribly wrong that Eric and Stig discover the true object of their mission.
Slomba lives and works in western Connecticut. A banker for 20 years, he also spent four years as an editor for a flooring magazine. He spent 17 years as an adult advisor at a local youth group, writing them a story every Christmas.

After taking a four year career detour as an editor for a trade magazine, he felt ready to write his first book.

Omnific Publishing is pleased to announce the appearance of author Linda Cunningham on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, to be aired November 11, 2011. Ms. Cunningham will be on the show to promote her new romance release, Small Town Girl. She also happens to be Craig Ferguson’s mother-in-law. Craig posted the following to his Twitter account:
@craigyferg:
Craig and Megan Cunningham met at a fundraiser in New York City and were married on Linda’s farm in Vermont in December 2008. They have one child together, Liam. (Mr. Ferguson has a son, Milo, from a previous marriage).
In her debut novel, Linda Cunningham writes about Lauren, a woman who has it all, discovering what she truly wants from her big city life. Reviews for Small Town Girl have been quite positive. A Tale of Many Reviews blog reviewer, Julie Brazeal, says:
Small Town Girl is a great start to a new contemporary romance series by Cunningham. Fans of Fool’s Gold by Susan Mallery will enjoy this book….
…(Lauren’s grandmother’s house) is a major player in the story. If it weren’t for the house, there would be no meeting Caleb, no place to go when her world falls apart, nothing to throw all her efforts and emotions into, and no home for the future. What a great friend she has in that house!
I’m interested to see where Cunningham takes this series. For those that like happily ever afters that require work, disappointment, grand gestures, hot scenes, and redemption, Small Town Girl is a book for you.
