Gifts from the heavens….or a curse on mankind?
The High Council of Sentients is comprised of five Gray Elders: Ikolf, Htron, Tsae, Htuos, and Tsew. They are enlightened vessels of truth and light that possess the total sum of all knowledge and wisdom ever gathered since their sentient life began eons ago. Their expressed purpose is to seek out, establish and ensure “a higher order” for all life forms within the Universe. Despite their wisdom, knowledge and the genius of their technology, the Grays know that they need all the help they can get to meet their prime directive for promoting life, safeguarding peace and ensuring prosperity.
The High Council just voted to eliminate one of man’s deadliest vices:--wrath. Indeed, it would now change his entire future and destiny. Man’s insult and injury to his fellow man would be totally eliminated. Wars and destruction would be no more. What a gift to mankind! However, would this change benefit all of mankind as proposed or just the Grays, who are planning an interstellar trip to Earth that mankind knows nothing about?
The High Council’s First Charge, Ameil, travels to Earth and makes their plea for goodwill and friendship. His visit and messages create quite a public stir. He even offers mankind full membership and a seat on the High Council. This overture really perplexes Earth. Mankind clearly doesn’t know what to think about him or his offers! Knowing that there are now ‘others’ within the Universe, what are the costs and benefits doing something or just doing nothing? It all becomes quite a dilemma for both species to solve amicably.
The Grays decide to employ a plan to gain the needed ‘buy in’ for mankind’s approval. They salt their offers with the promise of new knowledge, technology and information-sharing to keenly address some of mankind’s most pressing needs and problems: basic human needs (food, housing, medicine, energy, transportation) and planetary stability (climate change, resource preservation, disease eradication, population control, species preservation, spent nuclear fuel abatement/mitigation, ocean and atmospheric sustainability). Other benefits offered include: interstellar trade and commerce opportunities; joint space exploration ventures; a species exchange program; and, even a cultural awareness fellowship program between the species!
So join this new, exciting interstellar journey of the Grays as they approach a highly skeptical planet to ‘seal the deal’ for peace, prosperity and a bright, promising future for both species!

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.

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.
