You've Changed. Has Your Website?

Websites are now as important for establishing identity as a birth certificate or a driver's license. Yet, I've noticed that once an author puts one up, the site is often forgotten and neglected.

I research authors when they send me query letters in my capacity as acquisitions editor for Oak Tree Press. I like to know who I'm dealing with and, short of doing a background check, websites are all I have to give me an inkling of their accomplishments up to this stage in their…

Get read!

It’s the end of the month, which means my book sales stats will again be reset to zero. As I’ve mentioned many times before, it’s a little depressing to start each new month from scratch. Sometimes I think it would be nicer if they just kept the numbers going.

 

That said, I sold a pretty fair number of books this month. It helped that I ran two promotions and that Kindle Nation Daily gave me extra free publicity by presenting me with an interview by a fifth grader and then…

Poem: Religious Exercise

One sure way to escape sin’s perdition

is to be not trapped by human tradition

that hinders the outpour of God’s spirit,

when searching for one’s heavenly lift.



For sheer knowledge of religious minds

can impede the heart flow of the Divine.

For the truest Love require action of us,

besides Faith’s development in Whom we trust.



A genuine journey of spiritual relationship

comes from Christ’s sacrifice and…

Poem: The Color of YHWH

A new search is ongoing,

with Israeli chemists on a trek;

they seek find the color of God,

which was formerly called tekhelet.



Is its significance a harbinger

of future Messianic times?

Can the rabbis or scientists

decipher this dividing line?



It’s an enigmatic shade of blue

that represents God’s infinity

caught between the color spectrum

of visible light and invisibility.



Some experts believe the…

Habakkuk and the Art of Brewing Coffee

HABAKKUK AND THE ART OF BREWING COFFEE

Learn from HabakkuK the principle of brewing divine tasting coffee. 

HabakkuK specified four phases in the process of manifesting.  The third, the waiting phase, is the most challenging to people.  Most folks want to realize instant manifestation.  Like instant gratification.  If they fail to manifest instantly, they are not gratified and they blame the Law of Attraction. 

We explained in our books and in…

The forces of Heaven and Hell prepare to meet on a sacred battlefield in Mark Carver's "Black Sun"!

A NEW LEADER WILL EMERGE...

A NEW TERROR WILL RISE...

A NEW AGE OF DARKNESS WILL BEGIN.

 

The Church of Satan is leaderless, and the Christian church seizes this opportunity to rise up and reclaim that which was taken from them. From the ashes of despair, a bright star rises to lead them into glory. But even the darkness can wear a mask made of…

Looking Ahead

Just had a weekend away from broadband, PC’s et al. We visited friends in Andalucia and had a pleasant time travelling around, looking in at the markets and visiting a delightful little spot called Villaricos on the coast. Even though I was nowhere near a PC, I still continued to write in my head. Do all writers do that? When my wife catches me daydreaming, she insists I am writing my next novel. She’s not far wrong; I’m usually sorting something out that I can use in my books.…

A Mormon Massacre - Analysis of the Massacre at Mountain Meadows in Utah Territory in 1957

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS or Mormon) began in rural New York, moved to Kirtland, Ohio, then to Nauvoo, Illinois before stopping in Utah Territory. The LDS experienced a great deal of persecution at each location before settling in the distant and unpopulated Utah Territory. The persecution in Illinois included gunfights between locals and the Mormon Militia, eventually named Avenging Angels or Danites. The Mormons stockpiled weapons…

Never Say Neigh - Review by Martha A. Cheves, Author of Stir, Laugh,Repeat; Think With Your Taste Buds; A Book and A Dish
It takes a long time to train a human. None of this “get them broke in thirty days and into competition by age two” philosophy works with two-legged partners. It takes time and creativity on a horse’s part to get past…
