The Origins of Pepper and Longstreet

Asked to tell the story of the origins of the Pepper and Longstreet series, I sit down at the computer and prepare to write another mundane piece of self promotion. Sitting in…

Perfect Nothing is the seventh story in the One series. Author Rachel Hunter is contributing 100% of her proceeds to Give Kids the World (www.GKTW.org). She has taken time out of her busy college schedule for a brief interview.

Okay, I admit it. I made a boo boo. I posted on the U.K. Amazon readers site by mistake. What I did was confuse the codes Kindle Boards uses to create a picture of the cover. I posted on the U.K. site that I was conducting an experiment to see if this worked and posted along with the links. Well, let me tell you what happened. I got so many vicious replies, people accusing me of trying to sneak in self promotion (as if that’s punishable by death), people reading the book samples and then…

I have decided to dedicate this story to my younger brother. I have fictionalized his name and the path he has chosen to arrive at his understanding of his faith, his ability to embrace what his true values are and to display those values on a daily basis for all to witness, experience, and if they choose to, embrace.

From Three Rooms…

Most have experienced staying with the same person no matter how bad and unhealthy a relationship becomes, hoping against the odds that things will eventually get better allowing love to prevail. Some look to God, wish upon a star, or seek out and counsel with every psychologist around to heal the broken seams, replace bad with good, take another drink of love potion which brought bodies together in the first place, and inflame the sparks both felt while first meeting. But realistically,…

When I decided to write my novel, there were a few characters that I had in my head that I wanted to bring to life.  One of those characters was a guy named Charley.  Granted, he is a fictional character, but he is based on someone I used to know some years ago. 

The only similarities between the character in my book and the guy I used to know was the number of years that it took to completely harness his hopefulness about life in…

My name is Gilbert Anthony Zanni.  My father and I share identical names and per Social Security I am not a junior nor am I a second.  This gave me trouble when I started school, when I joined the US Marine Corps and in other necessary life evils, including banking, hospital visits and so forth and so on.  So, as I prepared to package the Deceitful Things project, I decided…

Mental Wellness: Real Stories from Read Survivors

Stress can kill you, destroy your mental ability to work, deal with family issues or life in general. Stress: a 6-letter word, yet so powerful and destructive in meaning. Financial problems, work related situations, teen issues, anxiety attacks and just the felling of being overwhelmed can often cause someone to give up on life and totally implode. Drugs, alcohol, eating disorders, suicide and unknown mental disorders that…

For those who enjoy writing, hospice work can be a great source of inspiration. I have always been fascinated by the written word and the impact it has on readers. As I became more involved with hospice volunteering in Detroit nursing homes, I found myself writing poetry and prose about my experiences.

During poetry readings at various venues, I noticed that people approached me often to discuss a loved one who had been terminally ill. They seemed relieved to talk to someone…
