Publicity

Tellwell author Kay Sparling, author of Mission Thaw, was recently featured in Reader Views!

The story is about an American opera singer, Kaitlyn Stewart, who is an apprentice at the Vienna State Opera and is recruited by the CIA as a high-profile special agent. Her assignment is to infiltrate and gather intel on a human trafficking cartel headed by dirty Western businessmen, the KGB, and East Germans. The plight of the victimized refugees inspired me to write this story.

Jill Macdonald, the talented writer behind The Tales of Sophie Shenanigans, has also been recently featured in Literary Titan!

I wanted young readers to be able to understand that, sometimes when change happens we can manage it with the help of a friend, with the assistance of somebody who might know a little bit more about it than we do.
