MARTIN HERMAN
Step in to where fiction meets fact and becomes a “factional” world of intrigue and suspense!

The Jefferson Files
“This is an amazingly written, fast paced page-turner. There are so many aspects of the history that I didn’t realize, and the intrigue is so deeply woven into the story. I picked this book up, as a fan of Jefferson and founding father history, and couldn’t put it down until I finished it. You can tell how meticulously the author researched this subject. The characters are so compelling and well written.”

The Return to Sender Files
“I absolutely love this writing style! I’m glad I stopped one day during this author’s signing/appearance or I would not have known about these wonderful books! These characters really do take on a life of their own! I can understand now what the author meant when he said that the characters do most of the writing!”
— Angela T.

The Sweet Revenge Files
“I just read The Sweet Revenge Files and was blown away! Every mystery book I have ever read I have either gotten bored or scared. This makes me think of the genre in a different way! The way it was written is fantastic. I would like to thank the writer for bringing this book into the world. I hope he keeps writing these amazing books and keeps bringing them into my life! He is amazing!”
— Michael L.

Writers Coaching
If you have a short story to tell, a children’s book or poem to craft, an imagination full of interesting characters waiting to come alive, or an entire novel you want to write – or if you have a proud and inspiring family moment to save for and share with current and future generations – I could help you do that!
If you have always wanted to write, but thought you didn’t have the time, the ability, the support of those around you, or the ‘stick-to-it-ness’ – I could help you do that!
Martin Herman, a native of Brooklyn, New York, had a diverse background in business before establishing himself as a successful self-published author. Currently residing in Connecticut, nestled halfway up a small mountain, his journey has been marked by a passion for entrepreneurship and a lifelong love for writing.
However, it was not until he approached his 75th birthday that Marty finally took the plunge and published his first full-length novel, The Jefferson Files. This "factional" (fact + fiction) mystery quickly captured the attention of readers spanning an astonishing age range, from 10-year-olds to 93. The protagonist, Will James, struck a chord with readers, igniting their curiosity and leaving them eager for more. Encouraged by the overwhelming response, Herman transformed his debut book into a series of novels that promises to keep readers captivated with suspense and intrigue until the very last page.
In addition to the Will James Mystery series, Martin has authored several equally fascinating books. His novels are packed with surprising plot twists that leave readers thoroughly entertained.
