About the authors:
Pete Crotty has been studying astrology and and doing charts for 25 years. Through education and constant studying of people's charts, Pedro fully grasped the alchemy of one's chart and how to clearly understand the innate qualities of the people he reads. He has been researching for so long and has seen the results not just from books but from personal statistics, which inspired him to write this book. This is his first book and he's in the process of writing another. Most astrology books are huge, overwhelming and challenging to understand, but Create Your Own Horoscope is a guide to make it simple for many people to easily comprehend and not feel overwhelmed by too much information.
Jode Millman is the multi-award-winning author of THE EMPTY KAYAK, HOOKER AVENUE and THE MIDNIGHT CALL—the first three installments in her true-crime inspired “Queen City Crimes” Series. She’s an attorney, a reviewer for Booktrib.com, and creator of The Writer’s Law School, and lives in the Hudson Valley. In The Empty Kayak, secrets and deceptions are uncovered as Detective Ebony Jones and Attorney Jessie Martin investigate a suspicious drowning in the murky, majestic Hudson River. Inspired by a true Hudson Valley crime that made international headlines.
Julia Ponder is a poet, author, and teacher living in the Hudson Valley region of New York. Her poetry has appeared in national and local literary journals. Her work exists in the in-between places that we often forget about, somewhere where the pastoral and the autobiographical meet. Late afternoons staring into space, that moment you realized you changed and soon forgot, or the love that tingles in your toes which carries you through the day. Quantum Ghosts invites readers to consider the multiple realities that exist within and around us.
Dorian Sinnott's work has appeared in over 300 publications worldwide and has been adapted into audio performances and graphic novels. He has been nominated for the Best of the Net and Eric Hoffer Book Award, and was the recipient of the 2023 Chronogrammies Readers Choice Award for Local Author. Dorian lives in the Hudson Valley with his two cats. Along About Midnight is a dark coming of age horror novel, taking place in the weeks leading up to Halloween.
