Meet the indie authors
The independent writers behind the books: their stories, in their words.

Clara James
About Page Settings Clara James About Clara James Clara James writes steamy, high-emotion romance that lingers long after the last page. Her stories blend grit and heart across subgenres—rock-band romance, gritty biker vibes and small-town mountain shifters. Expect deep chemistry, found family, fierce loyalty, and endings that feel earned. She is obsessed with characters who fight for the love they choose and with the consequences that make their victories matter. Clara lives in a rural community with her spouse, their child, and a small menagerie: three dogs, a snake, and a chinchilla. Writing has been her first love since childhood. As a kid, she wore out a gifted typewriter, clacking away into the early hours while everyone else tried to sleep. After years of waiting, she is finally pursuing the passion she always knew was hers. She swears the words flow better with a caramel coffee at her elbow. When she isn’t drafting, she is storyboarding songs and mapping worlds so every road, bar stool, and back alley feels lived-in. Readers come for the heat and stay for the heartbreak that heals.

Dalia Latife
I am Dalia Latife, an award-winning author and nature photographer drawn to the quiet places where nature, change, and our inner lives meet. My writing grew from seasons of my own life when things I thought were permanent suddenly shifted, and I found myself returning again and again to nature, not for easy answers, but for perspective, stillness, and a way forward. Photography is another way I tell these stories. Whether I am writing about a difficult season or standing quietly behind my camera waiting for a moment in nature to unfold, I am interested in the same thing: paying attention. I write for anyone who has ever found themselves somewhere they did not expect to be and wondered, “What now?” My hope is that my words offer a little companionship along the way and a reminder that sometimes the way forward begins by becoming still enough to notice what is already around us.

Daulet D.
What if the things that watch us could remember us? Daulet D. is an independent author from Almaty, Kazakhstan, and the creator of the POV: I Am… Universe, a collection of human stories told through impossible perspectives. In his fiction, a train falls in love with its only passenger. A virus lives inside the child it is slowly destroying. A smartphone remembers what its owner tries to forget. Even silence begins to speak. His stories explore memory, love, loss, family, and what it means to be human when everything is changing. At their center are ordinary human lives, seen through the eyes of the things, emotions, and unseen forces that quietly witness them. Daulet studied in Tokyo at Japan's National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies. He is also the author of AQSU, KÖK TÖBE, and LEPSY. Some stories don't just tell you who you are. They stay. And sometimes they watch you back.

Deana Ray Agon
Deana Ray Agon first came to wider attention through her short fiction, where she developed a reputation for exploring sexuality, power, intimacy, and the complicated psychology behind desire. Her profile grew significantly with The Rule of Pleasure and its interactive offshoot, The Indulgence Trials, which introduced her work to a broader audience, particularly within kink and alternative-lifestyle communities. Rather than treating unconventional sexuality as spectacle, Agon’s writing is grounded in consent, communication, and the emotional realities that exist beneath the surface of sexual experience. Whether writing fiction or working with personal narratives such as Between Power and Silence, Agon is less interested in judging unconventional desire than in understanding the people who live it—and in exploring the psychological spaces where pleasure, responsibility, intimacy, and consequence meet.

Deborah Griffin Hawke
Upcoming releaseI write speculative fiction about women, power, family, and what happens when the world people thought they understood begins to shift beneath them. Sometimes that shift involves inherited magic. Sometimes it involves a country discovering how quickly institutions can bend. My fantasy novels are about women who discover that the stories their grandmothers told them may not have been stories after all. They blend folklore, inherited magic, family secrets, and contemporary life—with women who have accumulated enough years and experience to know that discovering magic doesn't make the ordinary complications of life disappear. Generation Liberty, co-written with Simon Hawke, moves into near-future dystopian fiction, exploring power, obedience, resistance, and what happens when the institutions meant to protect liberty begin to bend. Before turning my attention to fiction, I spent much of my career in higher education, where I learned that people are considerably more complicated than any character a novelist could invent. That probably explains why I'm as interested in what extraordinary circumstances do to people and relationships as I am in the circumstances themselves. I write as Deborah Griffin Hawke. The Enchanted Legacy of Elizabeth Marchand begins my Lore of the Grandmothers series, followed by The Secrets of the Thistle & Shield. If you like folklore wandering into the present day, old family mysteries, complicated women and relationships—or speculative fiction that asks what people do when the familiar rules stop working—you'll probably feel at home in my books.

Diana Dennelly
I am the oldest of six children and have twelve wonderful nephews and nieces. I have been interested in writing children's books since 2002, the year when my first nephew and niece were born. I enjoyed reading children's books to my nephews and nieces when they were young. I enjoyed it even more when they were older and could read the books to me. My wish is to author books that children like reading, as well as adults like reading to children. I published my first book 'Stewart & Gracie's Christmas Star Party' on Amazon Kindle in August 2023. I had worked on the story for the past three years. My youngest niece Anna Young inspired me to finish the book. She also illustrated all the beautiful pictures for this book (and all my other books to come). Some of my books will have crafts and others will be only stories. I hope to add new books every year. Please check back regularly. Thank you.

Divyanshi Rajput
I’m Divyanshi Rajput. I write fiction, poems, and open letters, which means I spend quite a lot of time deciding what someone should say, then wondering whether they would have the courage to say it. My books include *Hearts That Met Too Soon* and *Om-Neer*. Naming a book is a strange experience. You put a title on something that has occupied your head for months, put your own name beneath it, and hope a stranger will open it. There’s something very hopeful about that arrangement. I like being on both sides of it. I’m interested in people whose feelings don’t quite agree with their decisions. The ones who mean well and still get things wrong, who can explain everyone except themselves. When I write about love, memory, or loss, I usually end up asking who remembers what happened differently, and why. It makes writing a simple conversation unnecessarily difficult. It also makes me want to keep going. My reading moves between classics, contemporary fiction, and Hindi novels. Kafka and Dostoevsky are writers I return to, although I wouldn’t want either of them in charge of cheering me up. I enjoy books that let me disagree with them and characters I’m still trying to understand after the story is over. This is where I share my books and the thoughts that haven’t found their way into one yet. You’re welcome to read, disagree, or tell me I’ve been unfair to a character. I may have a defence ready. I may also realise you’re right.
