About Me


Born on August 9, 1974 in Miami, Florida, I am a successful poet, editor, and novelist whose debut novel, The Evil Within Him, was published in June of 2007. It is no longer in print, but will be republished in late August of 2009. I'm also the author of Vanished and Other Short Stories, and Matters of the Heart: A Collection of Short Stories, Poetry & Creative Nonfiction. These two books will also be republished in 2009. Several of my short stories have been featured in NVF Magazine.

I currently reside in Atlanta, and is at work establishing my own publishing company, New Revolution Publications, which will be up and running by late August of 2009. You may visit my publishing company's website at www.newrevolutionpublications.webs.com or visit my official blog at www.authoralbertaparish.blogspot.com.

Currently, I'm offering editorial services to aspiring writers and established authors. If interested, please e-mail me at [email protected].

Editorial Fees:

$450.00 for manuscripts (fiction/nonfiction); up to 250 pages.

$350.00 for manuscripts of short stories; up to 200 pages.

$50.00 for manuscripts of poetry.

Note From The Author:

"The best thing that any author (especially if you've written several books like me) can do is to establish his or her own publishing company (whether self-publishing or traditional publishing). That way, you'll be in total control of your creativity and earnings. Of course, you'll make far more money as a publisher and author. If you want to establish your own publishing company, do your research first. I've already chosen Lightning Source Publishing as the company I'll use to print my books. Lightning Source won't be the company that publishes my titles. It will be my company label name (New Revolution Publications, LLC) listed for my titles. You have to first set up your account as a publisher with Lightning Source and then go from there. Visit www.bowker.com, and order your own ISBNs, Barcodes, and whatever else you need. Of course, register your company with the State and get a business license. You can complete the business registration application online. You can also complete an online application to get a copyright for your work now."
