Contributing Writer
Just me outside my old condo - Eva Bradbury
Hello!
My name is Jon Bradbury. I am a 7-time electronically published writer, in the urban romance market, published with 3 different publishers. My published works include "Colorblind," the detective story "Midnight Blue," and my most recent book "Take Good Care," about a man who hires a beautiful nanny to help him at home.
I recently found myself out of a traditional job, and tripped over this site by accident while job-hunting online. So now I am branching out, and hopefully will make some money, as well.
Mainly I will be writing articles about writing, but I will also throw in DVD reviews as well because I love movies and TV, plus I like tech stuff as much as the next guy.
