My name is Andy Siegel and I am a NYC malpractice lawyer. I wrote my legal thriller, Suzy’s Case (Scribner) on a whim. It has won 3 awards and continues to receive high praise.
When a guy’s been practicing law in New York City for over twenty years and is about to publish his first novel, you don’t look at him and think, “Hey, at Great Neck North High School on Long Island, they kept him in remedial reading through eleventh grade.” But it’s true. There I was, meeting three times a week with about five other students in a classroom with a solid wooden door and a tiny window set up high to prevent nosy kids from sneaking a peek. The only problem was that, by junior year, everybody else was tall enough to look in.
Being seen there never bothered me, though. If one of my buddies tapped on the window to catch my attention, making a stupid face, I merely held up my bag of Doritos, sipped my ice-cold Coke and pointed to the TV remote I was holding. Then, before turning back to the screen, I’d flash him a big grin.
In fact, I should have been out of there sooner. But I was in no hurry to say good-bye to those deep, comfy chairs and fully stocked vending machines, the only ones in the building. As I sat there happily munching chips, it never once occurred to me I might one day publish a novel. What a crazy idea.
But all things turn out to be connected—even if you don’t always understand right away why or how they are. From that classroom came my earliest identification with the underdog. Okay, I had great deal more confidence than the rest of the kids sitting around me—and none of their other problems—but I’d been one of them. I knew what it felt like to be on the wrong side of the door.
Justice is something you shouldn’t have to compete for . . . but it is.
After I graduated from law school and began practicing, I quickly realized it was the little guys of this world, the small fry, the ordinary joes who don’t know how to stand up for themselves, who most needed my legal expertise and fighting spirit.
So how did the colorful and cocky Tug Wyler come into being? He was undoubtedly hanging around, shadowing my daily life for a long time; I just didn’t know it. But here’s the short version: one morning, on the train into the city from Westchester—where I live with my wife, three kids, three dogs and an upstairs cat—the idea of him just appeared in my head. I don’t know from where. But there he was.
Unable to shake the spell he cast, I began to write, each morning when I got on Metro North, what’s now become Suzy’s Case. But I was doing it only to amuse myself. I sure didn’t read courtroom mysteries or legal thrillers; as far as I was concerned, I was living them.
It’s common to diss malpractice and personal injury lawyers. Ambulance chasers, they call us. Me, I see it differently. As far as I’m concerned, we’re the Robin Hoods of the profession, righting wrongs with every bit the same commitment he had to putting those culpable—most often the rich and powerful—in their place.
Just remember: anyone, in an instant, can become a victim. Even you.
The rush to cover up genuine wrongs of the sort that lie at the heart of Suzy’s Case—and the other Tug Wyler adventures I intend to write—happens continually out there in the real world. Believe me, fiction doesn’t know the half of it. What keeps me going into my office without fail each morning is my compulsion to make the system work for the injured victim when the big insurance companies vigorously resist such an outcome. It isn’t easy, but it’s what I do, and I love it.
I should add it’s no secret I enjoy joking around and have what some might even call a warped sense of humor. But though my methods may appear like smart-aleck comedy to my adversary or to the fellow in the robe with the gavel, my frequently unconventional approach is critical to helping me stay sane, dealing as I do on a daily basis with one set of catastrophic circumstances after another. One thing is certain: no one opposing me is ever able to anticipate all the angles I might spring in the course of a legal brawl.
For Tug Wyler readers, I promise the same mix: a rule-bending high-tension conflict during the course of which you’ll laugh in spite of yourself . . . while never knowing what’s going to happen next. Like me, Tug’s the kind of street-smart push-it-to-the-limit lawyer you’d want on your side when the worst has happened.
Kari Erntemann is in big trouble…

When her investigation backfires and people start dying, she fears there’s a new serial killer on the loose. And after a fellow researcher ends up one of the victims, guess who’s next on the murderer’s hitlist?
Can Kari hold her nerve, track down the elusive killer and take revenge for her friend’s death, or is her own time fast running out?
My latest book is Meditation on Space-Time, a Novel and the Press Release is listed below. Enjoy!
————————————————————————————————-
Physicist-Monk Rejects Salvation to Cast Preacher into Hell
Either mercy or justice; either salvation or friendship. Either choice: a flawed solution for a fallen man in a broken world.
Even as Father Lawrence was hearing the stranger’s confession, he dreamed of probability waves, black holes and temporal loops. He wanted to look for his friend, not mess with a penitent’s vices: seducing women, framing rivals, and laundering church-funds.
Except, his friend was pregnant with this man’s child.
If only Lawrence could free himself from his emotional scum… If only he could marshal the courage to polish off his search for enlightenment…Only to discover the secrets inside his friend’s heart…and the liaison between the villain and her…
Meditation on Space-Time, A Novel portrays a man’s struggle to discover his identity in contemporary society, to sacrifice for his friends and to take the road less traveled. For readers who would eat up the hero’s every morsel of laughter and tear as if each were bittersweet chocolate. While sifting through clues to the characters’ true identities and hidden agendas.
“Leonard Seet has left no literary devices on the table to narrate his tale…I was enthralled by the pure beauty of the writing among all the plot points. The scintillating writing is elegant, pure, grownup, originally cast, heartfelt, intelligent… The writing is simply breathtaking… brilliant bit of poetic science… If you prefer intelligently crafted novels, then do yourself a favor and by all means read this unforgettable novel by Leonard Seet: the writing is to die for.” -David Lentz, author, Bloomsday: the Bostoniad
While working overseas as Project Director for a consumer electronics company, Leonard came upon a parchment, which he had drafted in college after booing a novel’s ending. The chicken-scratches had begun to fade, but he succeeded in deciphering the text. The writing was amateurish, but the plot had potential. So, to relieve work stress, he began rewriting the story, along the way learning the art of the trade. Several years later, he resigned from the company to write short stories and literary novels. In the fall of 2011, Leonard attended the Jennie McKean Moore Fiction Workshop at George Washington University to learn from author Tim Johnston, Art of the Story. He is the author of The Spiritual Life.
Meditation on Space-Time is available in most brick-and-mortar and online bookstores. You can buy it at Amazon on http://www.amazon.com/Meditation-Space-Time-Mr-Leonard-Seet/dp/0967493722/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1351895875&sr=8-2&keywords=meditation+on+space-time
“Meditation on Space-Time is a strong pick for those seeking a metaphysical twist… with plenty of humor about life…” -Midwest Book Review
“Great lyrical novel… A rich, intricately plotted story.”
– Mike Bresner, author, All I Want for Christmas

“Do you realize that in the time we’ve known each other, we’ve never argued?”
It was that initial insight that led us to explore our relationship and eventually blog about it. We were astounded again and again by the peaceful nature of our union. We found an amazing lack of conflict and an ever increasing experience of joy, ease and harmony, and ended up writing a book about it.
These ideas are simple but very powerful. We believe that if you are open to the possibility of a different way of relating, of changing your frame of reference, a magical transformation can take place. We know from our experience that it is real and tangible: not a theory, not thoughts, not a collection of ideas. Get the book now and transform your life.

I’m happy to announce that my debut novel, Songs for the New Depression (http://kerganedwards-stout.com/songs), is being released by Circumspect Press on Tuesday in hardcover, paperback, and all e-book formats. Happily, the book has gotten some great reviews, and I hope you enjoy it.
“A distinctively entertaining novel written with moxie and bolstered by pitch-perfect perspectives.” – Kirkus Discoveries
“Kergan Edwards-Stout has crafted a work of fiction reminiscent of some classic tales in Songs for the New Depression. Even better, Edwards-Stout’s debut boasts the kind of dark humor that made Augusten Burroughs (Running With Scissors, Dry) a household name.” – The Advocate
SYNOPSIS
Gabriel Travers knows he’s dying; he just can’t prove it. Despite his doctor’s proclamations to the contrary and rumors of a promising new HIV drug cocktail, all it takes is one glance into the mirror to tell Gabe everything he needs to know. His ass, once the talk of West Hollywood, now looks suspiciously like a Shar-Pei, prompting even more talk around town.
Back in his 20’s, life had been so easy. Caught up in the 1980’s world of LOVE! MONEY! SEX!, Gabe thought he’d have it all. But every effort to better himself ended in self-sabotage, and every attempt at love left him with only a fake number, scrawled on a realtor’s notepad.
The only happiness he could remember was in high school, where he’d met Keith, his first love. Only Keith had recognized the goodness within, and knew of the brutal attack Gabe had faced, the effects of which still rule his life today.
Now almost 40, and with the clock ticking, Gabe begins to finally peel back the layers and tackle his demons – with a little help from the music of the Divine Miss M and his mom’s new wife, a country music-loving priest.
Hello everyone,
I’m Scarlett Rains. I’ve released Promises of the Heart and Seduction of a Bluestocking, Books One and Two of my SIsters of the Heart Series. The series is one of historical romance set in 18th century England.
A sampling of Promises of the Heart:
Fate Plays a Hand! When Amelia Fitzailwyn, Duchess of Kensington is orphaned at a very
young age, she must leave home and travel to her new guardian’s estate.
She embarks on the journey with her beloved governess, Rachel: wishing
all the while that her Uncle William would somehow rescue her. To her delight,
he does! Uncle William is her new guardian…and he has two sons!
Amelia happily settles in to life at Havenwood Manor with her new family.
The Stage is Set!
What are the servants whispering about? Have they noticed all those heated
looks between Uncle and Rachel? Amelia sees mysteries everywhere…
and would solve them all if her cousins would leave her alone long enough
to do her research! She wishes John, the eldest, would keep his nose out of
her affairs and poke it back in his theme book, ‘How to be the Most Boring
Personage in the Realm’. Alex, the skirt-chasing hypocrite, irritates her
even more: going on-and-on about her one little rendezvous with Simon.
Time Will Tell
When it turns out ‘Uncle’, is not really her uncle, Amelia begins to
see the irksome boys in a new light. In fact, she plans to marry one
of them! Will John stop straining his steely, grey eyes reading and
see her for the woman she is? Or will Alex stop pulling the curl out of
her hair long enough to notice the sheen of it as it wraps around his
finger? Solve the mystery dear reader, as you enjoy this delightful
tale of a young woman’s coming of age in Georgian England.
A sampling of Seduction of a Bluestocking:
DETERMINED!
Jilted and heart-broken, Miss Rachel Steele leaves home to begin a new life as governess, mind-made-up never again to succumb to a man’s charm. Then William Seaton, old friend of her employer, disturbs her peace: meddling in matters outside his concern. ‘Good riddance to bad rubbish,’ she says when he finally leaves. Soon thereafter, disaster strikes and Rachel accompanies her charge to the estate of her guardian, the Duke of Warwick: who from his letters sounds like a man well in his dotage. Rachel marches in to his study to persuade the doddering old coot to keep her on as governess. Words fail her when she finds that he is not at all old…definitely not doddering, -but none other than the irritating, William Seaton!
DEVILISH!
William Seaton’s life is precisely as he would have it: mistresses all prettily lined up in a row, a cozy chair at Whites molded comfortably to fit his frame – fine port and cheroots a nod away…just perfect! He is anything but charmed to renew Miss Steele’s acquaintance, she is a nuisance he does not want or need, -in fact, he’d prefer to hear nothing except farewell from her tightly-pressed lips. Knowing the annoying bluestocking will likely disrupt his well-ordered life, he agrees to retain her for the sake of his ward.
DESTINED!
Hence begins a sizzling romantic campaign of Napoleonic proportions which draws the unwelcome attention of a villain from William’s past. Will Rachel and William realize their love for one another before he seeks revenge?

WE, THE WATCHED is a speculative sci-fi novel about surveillance and propaganda.
For a free sample and info on where to buy it, please visit http://www.wethewatched.com
Synopsis:
A 20-something man wakes up without memory and finds himself in a nation that administers a Watched List of its own citizens. He meets people who accept invasive surveillance by the government and forced uniformity by the church as necessary safeguards for protecting the homeland. The amnesiac learns quickly that opposition is heresy—and punishable by death.
WE, THE WATCHED is a dystopian novel by Adam Bender about what happens when one man forgets the propaganda. He makes strides toward getting his life back together, but the fresh perspective granted by his rebirth soon proves to be more a curse than a gift.
“The Lady of the Rings – Musashi’s Book of Five Rings Strategy Interpreted for Women.”
The phenomenal success of the author’s original interpretation of Musashi’s Book of Five Rings was the inspiration that eventually led to the creation of this volume. A chance meeting of two incredibly diverse human beings led to a collaboration that came as a result of their own personal relationship.
Hanshi Kaufman taught the principles of the “Rings” to Ann Davis, a successful restauranteur, over a period of time when she was dealing with issues that occur in every person seeking answers to the so-called difficulties in life. This book is a result of their chance meeting. It expresses in Ann’s words her feelings towards life now based on Musashi’s universal ideas that override any form of prejudice.

Lust in London
Young Alex Winthrop has barely ever left Kansas, much less jet off across the pond to a semester of study in London, England. He is paired with two other students; one a southern non-gentleman, and the other is a swarthy spanish soccer player.
Alex soaks up the culture and in doing so meets his very first love interest, an older traveling salesman named Mason Adams. They hit it off right away and spend the evening talking over key lime pie at a local diner. Alex ends the evening with a firm handshake.
Frustrated by his own prudishness, Alex decides to turn up the heat on things. He can’t get the tall, blond, blue-eyed Mason out of his head! They meet again and Alex is kissed for the first time. This quickly leads to a make-out session in Mason’s hotel…but Alex isn’t that brave. He leaves prematurely and runs back home.
Finally, Alex works up the nerve and he lets Mason deflower him. The wonderful, romantic night is soured though; Mason leaves the following morning to be gone for a month! Alex is beside himself! He wallows in his room and refuses visitors and even schoolwork.
After that long month, Mason returns, but things are not at all what they were before. Can the relationship survive the distance? It appears not. Alex leaves for home and he and Mason have one final contact. Unfortunately, it’s also the night a jealous ex enters the picture! Who will win Mason’s attention now?
Will Alex remember his trip to London as just lust or have his Mason by his side for all time?

Ranch Hands
Sid Rosen is in trouble. His 200 acre farm is fallow, the bank is threatening him with foreclosure, and his lover of over a year just walked out on him two months before. Things are looking bad. In desperation, he posts an ad for a farm/ranch hand to help him rebuild. A major drawback is that he can’t pay anything, which drives away everyone, except one.
A young man named Roger Laramie sees the ad and jumps at the chance to work on a farm again. He’s escaping his own personal hell and is anxious to work again.
The two meet and the attraction is immediate; but not everything is all wine and roses. The two have deep secrets they are hiding. The closer they get to revealing them, the more guarded they become. Finally, there’s a fight between them and an ultimatum issued.
Can Sid and Roger get past their histories and sow the seeds of their obvious attraction? Or let their anger and baggage darken their souls and turn them into bitter enemies forever?

Zyra Zanr, the galaxy’s greatest bounty hunter, has hunted fugitives for many years. Her true mission, however, is to destroy the Zaragos Crime Syndicate, the evil criminal organization that ruthlessly murdered her father. However, Zyra’s vendetta with Zaragos leads her on a forlorn crusade that puts her at odds with not only the law, but also her religious principles.
While hunting a notorious fugitive on the distant side of the galaxy, Zyra stumbles onto a conspiracy by Zaragos to murder the senators of the Intergalactic Alliance. Zyra learns that this plot is just the tip of the iceberg, for there is a clandestine force operating behind Zaragos that seeks to destroy not only the Intergalactic Alliance, but mankind as well. Zyra will have to put aside her selfish quest of revenge if she is to uncover the mastermind behind this plot and save humanity from an impending holocaust.
Zyra must come to terms with the violent role she plays in trying to keep peace in the galaxy, as well as the fact that a lone wolf may not be able to stop the coming Armageddon.
Rogue Hunter takes Zyra on a quest of adventure and descent into darkness, ultimately pitting the forces of good against evil in an epic struggle that can only result in the liberation or destruction of one woman’s soul while the fate of humanity rests in the balance.

World’s Largest Ship Gives U-boats The Slip
March 2nd marks the 70th anniversary of RMS Queen Elizabeth’s secret wartime maiden voyage across the Atlantic to join her sister ship RMS Queen Mary in New York harbour. First Lord of the Admiralty, Winston Churchill, had ordered the liner to leave its Clydebank fitting-out basin and make its heroic dash to safety.
Churchill had known only too well the vital role the Queen Mary and the Queen Elizabeth would play in the war. The liners, working in tandem, could transport whole armies across the globe in a matter of weeks.
With untested engines and no sea trials, Hitler’s naval experts had ruled out a trans-Atlantic crossing for the liner’s maiden voyage. The British spun a web of intrigue to dupe Berlin into believing that the Queen Elizabeth would sail to the southern English port of Southampton. German High Command signalled its U-boat fleet to locate and sink the Queen Elizabeth in the Irish Sea. A squadron of Luftwaffe bombers flew over the Solent but failed to find its target.
Secrecy was maintained to the last, depriving New Yorkers of the opportunity to lay on a suitable welcome for this ocean queen. The first they knew of her courageous voyage was when the liner, cloaked in battleship grey, emerged from a sea mist on the morning of March 7th.
The liner was refitted as a troop carrier, steaming nearly half a million miles and transporting some 800,000 Allied personnel during the war years.
Hundreds of thousands of GIs were later repatriated aboard the Cunard White Star liners, earning the Queens a special place in American hearts.
To commemorate the 70th anniversary of this remarkable voyage, Ulster author AJ Davidson has written Churchill’s Queen, a fictional thriller based on the events of early 1940. He links attempted Abwehr sabotage to the liner’s destruction 32 years later in Hong Kong harbour.

Book title: Developed Minds, Developing Minds and the Stupid Terrorists.
Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/Developed-Minds-Developing-Stupid-Terrorists/dp/143926578X/
Book summary:
All human beings, whether developed or developing or underdeveloped, show various levels of the seven deadly sins. The complex issues that arise due to these sins sometimes have simple answers. Developed countries balance their greed for money with selfless caring and giving that goes way beyond developing and underdeveloped countries. The embracing of secular humanism by the developed minds versus that of religious humanism by the developing and underdeveloped minds have made all the difference. The difference in human development index between the developed, developing and the underdeveloped minds due to this will only deepen if the developing and the underdeveloped worlds don’t change their mindsets. The paranoid and undeserving terrorists who are hell-bent on gaining control of governments through violence should give up. They clearly show their inability to control their minds let alone governments so they don’t have any other option but to refurbish themselves or else they will be an insignificant loss to the mainstream society. The developing and underdeveloped minds have far more unstable governments, financial system and socio-economic issues that are hard for them to resolve. While some developing minds have started showing signs of social responsibility, the underdeveloped minds have fallen into the deep end of social irresponsibility black hole. It is not only up to the mainstream moderate developed minds to change the mindset of the developing and the underdeveloped but also the responsibility of the mainstream societies in developing and the underdeveloped worlds. This book talks about the negative effects of these sins on the mainstream society and why some should not be tolerated at any cost.

Hello,
My name is Michele L Montgomery and my first novel, “River of Tears” is available at: http://www.amazon.com/River-Tears-Michele-L-Montgomery/dp/1432743201/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1262922646&sr=8-1
I’ve been getting very good reviews and this month it is being spotlighted on Trish Silver’s website: http://trishsilver.com/about-the-author/spotlight-on-new-authors/
River of Tears is about a woman’s struggle as she searches for her missing husband which leads her to shocking revelations about him, his family, and the crime of adult kidnapping.
Abby meets Caiden when she is sixteen years old and knows she has met her soul mate. At nineteen Abby marries the love of her life and together they begin a family of their own. Life gives them a gift, but this gift is short lived. After seven years of marriage it ends.
Abby is left alone with her two children and the bloody clothes that Caiden was last seen in. With the horrifying revelations from her mother in law Abby sets out to prove her husband is indeed alive and that he’s been taken against his will by his mother, brothers, and sisters in a sick and twisted game of keep-away.
Knowing her husband isn’t dead, Abby, with the help and support of her family, begins a search that takes her from Arizona to Arkansas and lasts for a span of eight years.
On a visit to Caiden’s birthplace, Abby and her brother Chase meet with Caiden’s best friend who fills them in with the secrets of her husband’s childhood and of the hell he endured. He tells them of the nightmares, the deceit, and the abuse Caiden suffered at the hands of his family.
More determined than ever to locate her husband, before his family kills him, Abby hires a private investigator who opens the doors to Caiden’s private world of hell and exposes his family for what they are, but will he be on time? Will Abby be on time to save her soul mate? Can she make him want to fight one last time?
River of Tears is a tale of personal triumph over heartbreak, of unconditional love and bravery. It is a compelling modern-day story depicting how the power of love can overcome even the darkest facets of human nature. The story demonstrates how self-determination and loyalty can lead to unimaginable accomplishment, regardless of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. It is a story of faith in the face of tremendous loss, where fear and discouragement threaten to steal the last glimmer of hope. Will this shred of hope be enough to sustain, or will it ultimately crush Abby’s dreams of lasting happiness?
River of Tears will take you on a journey you will never forget, it will make you want to gather all you love close and keep them there, because we never know what’s around the next corner of our lives.

Thank you, Vince.
I am Tara Hill,
My book “McBain’s Bride” is an ebook available at Amazon, B&N, and Smashwords. It is a historical romance novel that takes place in England and Scotland at the dawn of the industrial revolution. It is a light-hearted romance that brings in a little bit of history. Some people have tagged it as Christian Romance because the characters keep their high moral standards. I just wanted to keep true to the era and have a strong and smart heroine who finds love even when she doesn’t think she’s looking. It is only $1!
I hope you enjoy it.

Hello. Thank you very much for this opportunity to include my two new children’s books.
The Month of Zephram Mondays is a middle grade fantasy book.
“In the Kingdom of Zephram, everyone is magical – everyone except for the Royal Quadruplets: Tom, Lizzie, Ned and Nell. It’s tough to be different, even if you are a prince or a princess. And Tom, Lizzie, Ned and Nell are treated differently by everyone in the kingdom! But when evil Prince Persius takes over the kingdom, it’s the non-magical Tom, Lizzie, Ned and Nell who are the only ones left to try and save the day. Through their funny and challenging adventures they and those around them come to a better appreciation of the children’s skills – and the big difference you can make by being different! ”
The Kids’ (and parents’, too!) Book of Good Sportsmanship is a great book for parents and their children (ages 4 – 8) to read together.
“Do you have little athletes in your family? Then this colorful, engaging book is the perfect way to help them understand what it means – and how important it is – to be a Good Sport. Soccer? Dancing? Swimming? Whatever sport they do, they’ll learn easy, basic sports manners through reading familiar situations featuring kids just like them. Parents, you’ll also find handy reminders for you with each tip, so that the entire family can learn to be Good Sports together.”
Thank you!

I’m Charlie Courtland and I just released a new historical fiction novel:
Dandelions In The Gardern (fiction/historical)
ISBN:1449977804
A historical fiction novel about the 16th century Hungarian Countess, Elizabeth Bathory.
Amara Borbala is certain she is the only living person in the sane world with intimate knowledge concerning the life and exploits of the Countess Elizabeth Bathory. After all, she was Elizabeth’s companion and confidant since her eleventh year. In 1573, after the death of her mother, Amara is sent by her cousin to serve as a lady-in-waiting at the castles of Sarvar, Varanno, and Cachtice.
Now it is years later, 1628, and Amara is aging, alone, and reduced to eavesdropping at her favorite café around the corner from her townhouse in Vienna. Befuddled by gossiping ladies, Amara determines perhaps it is time to finally put a stop to the rumors and once and for all, answer the question, ‘Is it true?’ Did Elizabeth Bathory, a descendant of Vlad Tepes really commit the horrible acts of torture, bathe in the blood of slaughtered virgins, and dabble in the dark magic that she was accused of during her trial?
One thing is certain, Amara knows the truth, but will it be enough to explain the habits of her friend?
Dandelions In The Garden is book one in a two-part series that begins with the journey of Amara, an impressionable girl who follows the Blood Countess through all the horrid events, which lead to her rise and secure her place in history.

My collection of love poems Ceremonies of the Spirit was published by Plain View Press this year. This collection travels a spiral from infatuation to consecration.
Ceremonies of the Spirit has been called “gorgeous”, “exquisite”, “flirty”, and “joyous work that should be celebrated.”
“Here are poems that are living, breathing things; that invite us into them, welcome us into their elegant, ethereal dance, and walk us across the threshold into sanctuary where we look inward, feed the soul’s spark, commune with enlightenment, and transform. Wendy Brown-Baez creates beautiful work in this collection.”
–Michael Parker, reviewer for Oranges & Sardines, summer 2009
“That’s what Wendy does, she connects us with words and wraps us in the safety of a shawl so we can fall in love with poetry once again.”–Gary Glazner, Founder of the Alzheimer’s Poetry Project
Ceremonies can be purchased from me, from local bookstores in Minneapolis and St Paul, from the publisher, as well as on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Borders Books websites.

Damin meets Sobama in “The Adventures of George”
by Blair Gowrie
And George? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . who is this George? Well, George may be a common name, but it’s good enough for Kings, for Princes and for Presidents. So which category does our hero fall into? To find out, read this fast-moving narrative poem which chronicles George’s struggles with international leaders and terrorist groups, and which allows you to meet the host of colorful and eccentric characters who cross his path during his many adventures – people such as The Bearded One, Didi Damin, Elvester, Onassos, David Chipperfield, Sir Solomon Pushdee, and many more.
Didi Damin appears –
“Then suddenly a stranger caught his attention,
Powerfully built and with a black complexion,
Who, with two burly guards stopped at the Al-Hambara
To be deferentially greeted by a fawning General Manager.
Kennedy reflected, he’d seen that face before,
Surely this was the man who was responsible for
The death of thousands through torture, and famine,
Yes, the African tyrant, the feared Didi Damin!”
Damin meets Sobama –
“This frenzied feasting coming at last to an end,
Damin wiped his face and toothpick in hand,
Looked around the room and stared at one person,
A man of about forty, tall dark and handsome,
Summoned a waiter and told him very curtly,
“Tell that man over there to come here immediately”,
Causing the waiter to scurry across the floor,
Then whisper something in the dark man’s ear,
Which made him smile and nod in assent,
And walk over to be in the dictator’s presence.
The waiter introduced him with not a little drama,
“Allow me to present Senator Borrock Sobama!””
And what happens next? Well, Damin and Sobama set up DAPE, the Damin African Promotion Exchange, to promote cultural ties between the US and African countries – it’s a novel and exciting idea which you can read about in
“The Adventures of George”, available at –

Title: RACHEL SARAI’S VINEYARD by Deborah Rey
In a Europe where the Nazis apply Henry Ford’s industrial philosophy to the destruction of human beings, a little girl might expect her home to be a place of shelter and protection from the indescribable horrors of war. But five-year-old Rachel Sarai must take over her father’s work in the Dutch Resistance, distribute messages, smuggle people to safety during curfew hours, lie, steal, and confront the Gestapo. Her home is a chilling microcosm of the outside world: unsafe and driven by visceral hatred, jealousy, brutality and lust for power. She learns how an unscrupulous woman can manipulate the worst catastrophe in human history to serve her own domestic agenda. She comes to understand the extent of evil one warped individual is capable of, but survives thanks to the unadulterated love another person gives her during the first seven years of her life.
The mature Rachel Sarai telling her story refuses to pretend that life is nice or that she is nice.
You will find no euphemisms here, no evasion, no holding back, no mincing of words.
It’s probably pointless waiting for the movie. Most of this book could never be filmed. This is as dark as it gets.

My first book, “Where Jesus Flang It” (An Ozarkian’s World), a humorous and imaginative Ozark style memoir, it can be seen at:
http://www.publishamerica.net/product87322.html
It’s back jacket reads:
“” Born dead and revived, the son of an abusive father and a timid mother, in a culturally challenged depression Ozark family; Buddy Ray Earl faced challenges with deficits, and confronted life with trepidation. Little did he realize what a rewarding adventure his life would be!
Written as a Humorous Ozark Folk Tale, the story includes abuse and nervous breakdown, salvation and healing, understanding and forgiveness, calamity and serendipity, turmoil and peace, murder and kindness, and a lifetime of unusual adventure:
Drowning at the swimming hole, raising kids, chickens and dogs, hurricanes and demolition derbies, marriage and divorce, touring the country in a rusty motor home, failure and achievement. And an internet love affair.
The author provides frank and humorous glimpses of an often troubled and problematical, but rewarding life, much of it lived in the wrong place and time.
Buddy Ray Earl was born in 1938 in the Ozark back country in Missouri. With his family transplanted to Ann Arbor, Mich., for WWII factory work, Buddy was educated there.
Buddy Earl never relinquished his roots, and sees the world as a skeptical Hillbilly from the Show-Me State. “”
My second book, “Trippers”, (New beginnings) in a Science fiction setting, is at the printer’s and will be available soon.
It’s back jacket reads:
What can a young self educated drug dealer do, when the economy has collapsed, plagues and bullets kill his family, and climate change threatens to make man extinct?
Hitch a ride on a starship, become an expert on the 5-D continuum, find love and romance, new worlds, and strange new friends in the stars? Why not?
His Dad always said; “Never give up hope, Son, never give up. Unlikely things happen all the time. It might be your lucky day. Everyone has a lucky day sometime”.
We can always use a lucky day. Tomorrow might be ours.
First Reader Reaction:
I’m delighted to have read your “Trippers”. When it’s in print, I’m buying copies to send to folk. It’s not only a beautifully told story, but it is a very uplifting one. May you have a hundred more stories like it to tell.
Beautiful. Simply slam-bang beautiful. . Mike Rosenberg

My name is Shalonda “Treasure” Williams. I am delighted to have the opportunity to present “A Heart’s Thoughts” here on your site.
“A Heart’s Thoughts” is the second book in my Love Walk Meditations Series. This book answers questions that we often ask but not always get answered.
Here are some small excerpts from the book. I pray you enjoy.
How do I get and keep peace in my life?
“Peace is something that we all crave but not very many understand how to obtain it. The truth is that we need peace in order to make it throughout our days. Life can be so very stressful and chaotic- if we allow it to be…I once realized that I allowed my peace to be taken from me at a time when it should have increased…One thing to do is cast your worries… smile big… speak the opposite of the negative in your life.”
Why can’t I know my entire purpose at once? I feel like I’m going in slow motion.
“If you knew that you were going to have to save an entire nation, would you stay still for it. Most times we shouldn’t know our entire purpose because we would probably put our hands in it and mess it all up…”
Why I am so fearful about life and the things I know I’m supposed to do?
“Naturally, most humans are afraid of failure… I know all about this fear of failure and rejection. It started for me because it seemed like no matter what I did for my peers, it wasn’t good enough. Someone else was most of the time chosen over me… There lies in you the power to do all that needs to be done… We are all equipped to go forth.”
Why do I feel so alone in times of trouble?
“In the movie Ray, singer Ray Charles Robinson began going blind at a young age. No, he wasn’t born that way. During the process of going blind his mother proceeded to teach him how to use his other senses to get around…there were times when she was right in the room when he was in need of a helping hand…she didn’t run to his rescue though she was there…she wanted him to know that he possessed all he needed to find his way.”
Please receive my sincere thanks to every consideration given. Peace to you.

I’m Dee Dee M Scott and I just released my new novel, My Husband’s Woman. Here is the synopsis:
Young and beautiful Mehsia can have any man she wants, but who she can’t get enough of is her thirty-eight-year-old married lover Byron.
Successful attorney Byron enjoys being the world of two women:a wife he loves and a mistress he lust for.
Wife Alexandra has based her sanity on the faithfulness of her husband Byron. When she discovers their hidden affair, she takes Byron and Meshia into a bizarre world, one of which they could never have dreamed of, even in their worst of nightmares.

“Carry a Chicken In Your Lap, Or Whatever It Takes To Globalize Your Business” has just been released by St. Martin’s Press. In it, my co-author Bruce Alan Johnson and I explain why businesses today (including smaller ones) need to build global operations, how to go about choosing the right people to send overseas, and how to avoid the major pitfalls when you get there. We also write to workers in globalized industries about whether they should consider taking their own careers global (surprisingly, sometimes the answer is NO!)
Right now, this is one of very few books offering practical advice on global business on the market today. Filled with real-life stories from around the world, it’s an easy and entertaining read that will open a lot of eyes to the realities of business around the world today.
The book can be bought at Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Carry-Chicken-Your-Lap-Globalize/dp/0312565534/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpi_1), through Barnes & Noble (http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Carry-a-Chicken-in-Your-Lap/R-William-Ayres/e/9780312565534/?itm=1&USRI=Carry+a+chicken+in+your+lap), and at many local bookstores.

My latest mystery novel is The Surest Poison, the first of a new series featuring Nashville Private Investigator Sid Chance. Here’s a brief plot blurb:
When the state and outraged neighbors come after a small company over a toxic chemical spill, Nashville PI Sid Chance is hired to find who created the pollution before the current owner bought the property. A former Green Beret in Vietnam, National Park ranger, and small town police chief, Sid quickly finds all his leads point to dead ends. A night-time explosion behind the home of his well-heeled associate, ex-cop Jaz LeMieux, threats, and three possibly-connected murders turn up the heat. Sid finds a task that looked routine has turned deadly. As the tension mounts, he encounters the unsavory people responsible for malicious accusations of bribery that brought his police career to an untimely end.
The book is available on Amazon in trade paperback, hardcover, and for the Kindle. It can be ordered from any bookstore. You can read opening chapters (plus opening chapters of my four Greg McKenzie mysteries) on my website:

Hello, my name is Urenna Sander, and the title of my novel is “True Season of Love.”
This is a book of an unforgettable and passionate love story in 1960s Paris, between a wealthy Greek émigré, Ptolemy Verenis, and African-American, Medical Journalist, Olivia Moreno. This is a book of deception and secret pain.
The story is hauntingly beautiful of love absolute, between a man and a woman.
But for Those Who Love is a lucid yield to love and passion, and of unrequited love, and the lurid fiery depths of revenge.
Its available on line at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, and iUniverse.
Thank you for your interest in my beautiful love story.
I’m a debut author from Memphis. My book is “Motif.”
“Motif” is a story about two best friends that waltz into a deceptive, destructive triangle of lust, love, and betrayal, that tests the boundaries of their life-long friendship, and demolishes the precepts of right and wrong. Summer break is almost over for nineteen-year-old Tiffany Randal and Camisha Simmons who are back home in Memphis from Fisk. Summer break has been a bummer because Camisha has been constantly pining over her recently lost boyfriend. Tiffany has gotten fed up with Camisha’s whining and crying. Tiffany’s motto is lose one man, then get another. When she and Camisha meet Rayford Hunchings at a local mall, he seems like a frill free, no commitment, diversion. But what Camisha and Tiffany don’t know is Rayford has a game plan of his own, and he has secrets even more bizarre than the pink women’s dress hidden in his closet, or the Zorro costumed, whip toting mannequin, standing in his sex boudoir bedroom. The girls also meet Terrell Phillip, a pre-law student who is Rayford’s ex-friend. He’s a suave, good looking player, who sweeps Tiffany up in a whirlwind romance and offers her a future she can’t resist. But is he really the man of Tiffany’s dreams or is he just a smoke screen? Then there’s Rayford’s grandfather, the rich, elderly, Senator Eugene Hunchings. The senator has welded great power in life, but when a lingering illness brings him to a sudden end, the contents of his shocking will proves he rules supreme in death. Tiffany and Camisha’s lives will be changed forever as they become unknowing, yet willing pawns in a scheme that will lead them down a twisted road to murder. “Motif’s” characters come together to create a multi-faceted tale that peeks into the lives of people with well kept emotional and sexual secrets. These secrets are cemented together by unbreakable, yet destructive loyalties that border on obsession and eventually threaten to destroy them all.

My new book Saints of Molokai tells the story of the victims of Hansen’s disease in Hawaii who were sent into isolation at Kalaupapa, Molokai. I consider them all saints as they managed to live together in Aloha through a aterrible frightening time. Father Damjien who was the most famous saint in Kalaupap was canonized on October 11, 2009 so this book is a chance to learn about him and the people he served. Mother Marianne and the Franciscan sisters also sacrificed their lives for these victims. This section of Molokai is named as a National Park, a memorial to those who lived and died jere/

Thanks for allowing me to post my book info on your site, what a great idea.
My name is Phillip Whittington and I have recently published a book of children’s stories titled ‘What a Hullabaloo!’
The book contains 7 stories about the adventures of a gang of highly creative and mischievous 10-year-old boys in the 1970’s. This was a time before computers and video games when the conker was king and people with beards ruled the corridors of schools.
There are several free previews and a full synopsis on my website, as well as other stuff so please check it out at

I’ve got a trailer in the works, but in the meantime, my novel is entitled Stunt Road. The elevator pitch: Pete McFadden refuses to question his success when his online spoof of astrology unintentionally turns him into a trendy self-help guru. But when his creation becomes the plaything of a manipulative cult leader and a ruthless multinational corporation, Pete learns that the pleasures of wishful thinking come at a high price. Stunt Road takes a wry look at spirituality in a marketing-mad world. Literary fiction, whatever that means.
The first three chapters are free at http://www.gregorymose.com. It’s available for purchase at http://www.amazon.com/Stunt-Road-Gregory-Mose/dp/0615306632/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1249846102&sr=8-1

Hello Vince,
I believe you have come up with one of the most solid and best ideas yet. From my interpretation of what your doing is prioritizing the marketing of book from whever it’s coming from, then offering or letting the reviewers have at it with their opinions and comments.
At least, this is how I see it

My book was made available late last year so I hope that may fall under the “new” category. It is Diary From the Dome, Reflections on Fear and Privilege During Katrina. I was a San Diego tourist who was unable to leave NOLA (airport, train, & bus stations all shut down 2 days prior to the storm). My memoir tells of being trapped in the hell of the Superdome and the friendships that developed and details my being “smuggled” out early with a group of mainly white international visitors. 25% of any of my book profits are going to local charities in New Orleans. It’s available online at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
