What would you do if you were COOPER…?
What if…a dream seems to be a reality, you but you don’t recognize the person conversing with you, and that person tells you something about yourself that you don’t know but you accept as fact, until you wake up; and then it begins to haunt you What if…you walk into a room and see someone who doesn’t belong there, but is apparently awaiting your greeting; then closing your eyes and shaking your head, you look again, apprehensive, and chide yourself, seeing only an empty room? Perhaps words had been spoken, and they remain crystal clear…in your mind What if…an old photograph is found among the detritus of past generations, and there you are, in 1903, in a formal portrait with the same low side-parting of the unruly mop of hair, the same high forehead, identical hard, cynical eyes…a dead ringer What if…you completely forget where you are or where you have been or where you are supposed to be; and then suddenly recognize, just for a split-second, the slow and deliberate disbanding of your mind… What would you do…?

M. Louise Smith is a native Texan, firmly believing that her family roots were nourished in the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Born in Robstown, she has lived in Southern California, New Mexico, Houston and Austin, Texas. As a former avid clay artist, she exhibited in shows and galleries throughout Texas and Colorado with her architect husband. They enjoy traveling throughout the US and abroad. They currently reside in Northern Colorado. After spending numerous years in the corporate world with an international aviation brokerage firm, and then marketing, writing and advertising for a large insurance company, she diverted her attention to her love of writing novels and screenplays. Her Texas background is apparent in the locales and fond remembrances she often inserts. She has functioned as a panelist at writers’ conferences and visited remote locations with an Authors in the Bush program in Alaska. She is the author of seven novels, the terrorist saga, The Pact, a mature women’s romance, Accidental Wife, and the Texas occult Torn Shadow, the four-book amateur sleuth series of the Middy Brown Journals for women 45+, and three motion picture scripts. 
My representative Jamie was always extremely professional and helpful during the entire process of my book publication. She always responded very quickly to requests and was always helpful throughout the entire process. She is a great role model and a great asset to the Outskirts Press family. I will highly recommend Outskirts Press to my friends and associates and also look forward to doing more business in the future. I am extremely pleased with my book publication and consider this a major milestone in my life . Thank you all very much...

author of Avoiding Self Imposed Adversities
From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

I am looking forward to our next project together. I have recommended Outskirts Press to several freelance authors in my area. Thank you for making a potentially hectic journey so enjoyable and so satisfying.

author of Children: My Heritage - A Testimony
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.

Outskirts Press has perfected the art of self-publishing. Their process is simple and seamless with everything happening in a timely manner, giving authors complete control over how their book will appear inside and out. And the people there are fantastic. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, patient and quick to reply to emails. What more can an author ask?
Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.
