I came across Nicole's book via one of Ritesh Kala's tweets on Twitter. I clicked on it and went to his blog: Ritesh Kala's Book Reviews. There I learned more about this wonderful author, her inspiring son and the heartache that comes to kids with autism. Bullying is never warranted and for the disabled children of America, bullying sometimes plays a heavy part in their lives.
I then read about this wonderful mother, Nicole Storey and how she came up with a way to give us readers an awareness of Autism and to realize that having Autism doesn't mean your stupid. As her character Gage (using her son as her muse) discovers the world of Grimsley Hollow and the friends he makes along is first adventure, Nicole brings the spirit of her own son out in the character, giving you the reader a peek into the mind of an autistic boy.
I then went to Amazon and looked up Nicole's book and took a look inside (wonderful feature). Right from the start, you are drawn into the story and with the many raving reviews that go along with it, I was convinced this was a book worth purchasing. At a mere $2.99, it is well worth the price. I now have The chosen one of The Grimsley Hollow Series in my Kindle library and look foward to reading the rest of it.

Thankyou Nicole Storey for your inspirational story and wonderful heart.

Lauren K. Pomeroy--Sometime around Midnight--stories of sleep talking--share yours!
What a wonderful idea! I just had to share Lauren's post about her new book and her offer to others to share their own hilarious sleep talking stories to her growing pile of many, many belly grabbing experiences! Just read below and if you have a story you would like to submit to her, email her or click the link to her blog and type away! Don't forget to like her FB page
http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Lauren-K-Pomeroy/239674452720536
and stay tuned to her upcoming book Alexander -Sacrifice.Instinct.Rebirth.
I'll let her explain now...
My new book I am creating is called SOMETIME AROUND MIDNIGHT by Lauren K. Pomeroy - this book is dedicated to the dumb, hilarious, and weird things we say in our sleep...that unfortunately have witnesses, or people who have told you what you said. Why? Well, when publishing my boyfriend's avid sleep-talk sessions to my personal Facebook Page, from him saying "there's treasure...there's treasure...in the closet" to "penguin juice...over here you'll see!" to "imagination!", as well as when I talk back to him and he responds, I decided that this hilariousness is just too much to not share. However, this is an equal opportunity for the public to participate as well. Everyone is welcome to submit their stories to this book, obviously though my boyfriend's words are unforgettable, he alone cannot create a full novel. If you wish to submit your story please email me at author@kayenovels.com or visit my website to comment on my blog at www.kayenovels.com for anyone wants to participate!
Let the funny stories of the deep night begin!
Good luck Lauren and I cannot wait to read!
