About Preston Copeland

Anchor 1

Preston lives in Tampa Bay and loves to write compelling stories that reveal the nuances of the world.

He received his Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of South Florida. As an editor and ghostwriter, Preston has helped business leaders condense their entrepreneurial visions and decades of experience into book form. 

​

He also works as a turbine millwright (a field of engineering): this tech career requires him to travel the States and abroad, providing fertile backdrops for his stories.

He is currently working on a science fiction novel which tackles the impact of technology on mankind. 

 

Previous novels include Saleena Sanchez & The Cursed Crown (2015), Mark Twain’s Final Hour (2018), and Max Vision (2019). He’s crafted many short stories and indeed won an award for his entry in the Atlantis Anthology Short Story Competition (2018).

​

Preston serves up a smorgasbord of fiction genres, with a sprinkle of social satire. His writing ranges from Sci Fi to gritty adventure to surreal trippiness. He sets out to illuminate some basic truths and peculiarities of human nature, away from the partisan politics of the establishment and the group think that strives to mold the populace. His books tend to depict everyday worlds with a weird, dark undercurrent. They are not chances for him to moralize, but to show his heartfelt appreciation of humankind.

If you have a hankering for tasty edutainment in this mad world, Preston invites you to check out one of his novels!​​​​

Comic Tragedy

Twain Jpeg.jpg

One moment Mark Twain is dead in his grave, the next he's resurrected in a fresh white suit, chilling in a mountain lodge in a small town he doesn't recognize, surrounded by eleven other geniuses he never liked.

​

Oh, and Satan just walked in the door.

 

He says the group has been tasked with figuring out the secret purpose of life. If they don't find the correct answer in the next three days, Satan's wife (God) shall annihilate the entire human race. The author refuses to play along. Instead, he discovers true love for the first time with a pretty young barista across the street. Satan launches an escalating series of catastrophes upon the town, yet Twain remains unmoved by humanity's plight - until his beloved is captured by a town mob eager for a witch-burning. As time ticks down to the final hour, Twain must choose to humor a God he never believed in, or to trust in the Devil's trickery

Horror

Max Vision Cover.png

Fifteen-year-old Max lives in a trailer park. He would love the chance to wreak revenge on each of his bullies, but he’s skinny and has gotten used to suffering. Hell, he barely has a real friend.

 

He does seem to have one true believer, though. He often hears her whispering, “Only I can help you, Max. Don’t trust them, Max. Let me out!” Sometimes he tries to block out her voice, but he isn’t even sure where it comes from. Will her influence turn Max into a twisted vigilante? What if he’s the reason that people are vanishing in his small Florida town? Seems the whisperer has bust out of her cell and is now roaming the streets . . . in Max’s body.
