WheelMan Press logoWheelMan Press, the publishing imprint of BDDesign LLC.

Originally founded in the fall of 2003, WheelMan Press was created mainly to publish the speculative fiction and nonfiction by author Gregory Bernard Banks. From time to time, we may also publish classic public domain works of speculative fiction which we feel need to be preserved and remembered for future generations. Also, as a proud supporter of Small Press publishers and Independent Authors, we'll also produce guides and manuals to help educate fellow authors and publishers on the ins and outs of the business.

But our main goal will always be to publish speculative fiction, the kind of fiction that stimulates the mind and touches the soul. We aim to tell stories about people and places great and small, take you on adventures to the quiet corners and farthest reaches of the Universe, to explore both the wondrous and the mundane. We hope to invoke the storytelling style of the "Golden Age" of science fiction, when names like Bradbury and Heinlein ruled, but to do so with a modern-day sensibility. Our fiction ranges from fantasy and horror to science fiction and surrealism.

With four brand new stories added, Phoenix Tales: Stories of Death & Life, Second Edition, is the new revision of the highly acclaimed short story collection from Gregory Bernard Banks. Compared to authors such as Roger Zelazny and Harlan Ellison, Banks takes you on a roller coaster ride of emotion with stories ranging from the sweet tale of a boy who simply wants to be “Touched” by a world he’s struggling to understand, to the haunting and lyrical tale of the savior of abused kids known as "The Soul Man."

Author Gregory Bernard Banks combines the colorful storytelling style of the “Golden Age” of science fiction with thoughtful exploration of the contemporary issues of today. Not only will these stories take you on a emotional journey, but they will leave you contemplating life and the human condition as well.

Law of the Land coverAvailable from Amazon Shorts for just 49 cents!

This story was born out of a heated discussion with online friends concerning the death penalty and the law. I began to wander how justice and peace might be achieved in our near-future based upon the current course of our nation, and from it was born this tale of a society in which justice rests in the hands of every single individual. And I can tell you right now, it ain't pretty.

The last ten years have been a time of growth and discovery for author Gregory Bernard Banks. He’s grown both as a person and as a writer, and in the process he’s found the purpose in life he’d spent the prior 31 years aimlessly searching for.

Now, for the first time, Gregory Banks, author, poet, and lifelong sufferer of Osteogenesis Imperfecta (a brittle bone disorder) gives insight into what makes him the person he is today, and how his development as a person has coincided with his development as a writer. He shares his feelings, his thoughts, his opinions, and many examples of both his writing and art as he takes you on A Writer’s Journey in Poetry & Prose.
