FEATURED eWORD WRITER RICHARD CUDLOW

Richard Cudlow

     Richard Cudlow was born in London in 1945 and attended Archbishop Tenison’s Grammar School in Croydon, where his interest in science and the unexplained was first awakened (thanks to Mr Pratt and the physics department). He went on to serve for twelve years in the Royal Air Force and throughout a full and varied working life has maintained a keen interest in human history.

     He has always been intrigued by questions that science seems to have difficulty in answering:

• Why has it not been possible to measure the speed of the Earth, only estimate it?
• When discoveries are made that contradict modern scientific thinking, why don’t they feature in the syllabus that is taught to students?
• If human beings, centuries apart, wrote the Bible, how did they manage to incorporate its code?

     For personal entertainment, Richard has written a number of short stories, mainly for consumption by his children with three being broadcast by the UK’s South Coast Radio in 1993. He is currently researching a new novel, with a working title of The Overseer-Going For Gold, which will take the Overseer into new adventures in his quest to bring mankind back to the truth of its origins. Truths to be used by evil in its attempt to ruin Britain at the 2012 Olympics, while the Overseer, helped by his friend Dr Richards, exposes truths from the Scriptures to save the world from the Mayan Prophecy.

FEATURED eWORD WRITER JONATHAN HARVEY

Jonathan Harvey

Throughout history people have asked themselves, “How can I find out more about the author of this book?” and then began to worry that someone heard them talking to themselves. Well, the author of Shades of Plaid doesn’t want anyone to worry like that. But, you notice, he still hasn’t told you who he is. By now, he should have told you that his name was Jonathan Harvey, that he is a Christian author and then maybe said something about having recently moved to Florida. The guy hasn’t even stated that he writes a web comic or anything like that… Oh wait, he just did. Well, that was sneaky.

Jonathan Harvey, author of Shades of Plaid, can be found at Smashwords.com.
