Improvised Digital short Story "Hunter" Tom White Author's Cut

    As the anchor author for "Hunter" I found it to be a real rush. I read each segment as it came in and had to keep track of characters and events so as not to lose anything or anyone and then tie all of the loose ends together. I took elements of each segment and tried to expound upon them. I was being lead in a direction and had no choice but to go there.

   I learned early in my directing career that if you are going to make a choice as an actor or director it has to be a clear…

Spirit of "Maestro: Unveiling Karma and Reincarnation"

The whole world is subject to the Universal Laws of Cause and Effect, the laws of Karma. This is the main premise of "Maestro: Unveiling Karma and Reincarnation." After many years spent observing and healing patients, Rachel Madorsky concludes that there is no such thing as coincidence. Everything we perceive as coincidence or as bad luck is, in reality, Karma, caused either by individual or collective actions, thoughts, and experiences from our past incarnations over many lifetimes. Rachel’s… Continue

FIRST MANIFEST-FOR WRITERS

The dictionaries definition of ‘manifest’ is something that is obvious or evident. I have decided to call these contributions to the literary world my manifests.

 

  As a literary agent I read manuscripts until my eyes won’t stay open, I sleep a little and then I wake up and read some more. Occasionally – no that’s the wrong word. Rarely do I find a manuscript that keeps my eyes open no matter how tired I am. When you read as much as I do it has to be a damn good…

B.R. Stateham Death of a Young Lieutenant

 

Once in a while you come across a novel that is different and unique. A novel that just doesn’t quite fit into the same square and round peg holes, doesn’t follow the formulas that the big guys set out for everybody and is so well done structurally you need to take pause and enjoy it for the gem it is. I was lucky enough to find one of them in Death of a Young Lieutenant by B.R. Stateham. I am going to get to jaw with him on April 6th on my blogtalk show The G-ZONE and…

Wife Selling!

The latest post on my blog looks at wife selling...only dont worry...I am writing about the 18th century! But still, it does raise the question of if you were going to exchange your partner, what would be a fair trade?



'In 1553, clergyman Thomas Snowdell sold his wife to a butcher. After a decree by Queen Mary I, that any clergy who married during the brief period of Protestantism during the preceding reign, would be put out of their living, it was a straight choice for Thomas, in… Continue

Alzheimer's Volunteer Caregivers Up 37%

Baby boomers have reached the age to have Alzheimer's disease. Good Morning America scrolled across the screen there is now 15 million volunteer caregivers which is up 37%. These caregivers need as much information as they can get on how to take care of a person with Alzheimer's.



I've written a book titled Open A Window - Alzheimer's Caregiver Handbook. I'm very proud of how much this book helps caregivers. It's written in layman's terms. Caregivers who read the book can identify… Continue

Lee Goldberg The Dead Man: Face of Evil

 

Back in the day I used to read a host of different serial novels: The Death Merchant, The Executioner, Nick Carter, The Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, Encyclopedia Brown ….wait I went back to far. Okay rewind it a bit and you get the idea. Someone was smart enough to go back and try to capture the feel and fun that was contained in those types of novels back in the day. Did they carry it off? What do you think? Here is what is in the virtual pages:

Next time, Dad, don't lend my book; tell the people to BUY a copy!

Gotta wonder at times. Tonight my father said to me that a woman, I'll call her 'Sally' (after all, it is her name) told him to congratulate me on 'Abernethy' (Zeus Publications, http://www.zeus-publications). She read it and enjoyed it. I was preening, and thinking about my bills as I said, 'Did she buy a copy? That's great!'. The man who sired me and passed on my tallness, the way-I-tilt-my-head gesture, and the ability to solve cryptic crosswords… Continue
