Mom Replaced By Free Download

It happens every year.

Every major school project is due the same week in May. Now that Tristan is in middle school, it is worse than it was before; and I don’t see it getting any better until he graduates from graduate school and starts taking care of us.

Until then, Jack and I will just have to bare with it.

Last week, Tristan’s social studies project was due. It was on the country of Poland, where his ancestors originated. It was very last minute. He only… Continue

A REVIEW OF CROSSROADS BY 'SIMPLY STACIE'

Title: Crossroads,

Author: Steven Nedelton

http://simplystacie.net/book-review-crossroads/

"Crossroads is a smart, tightly written, intense spy thriller that will have you engaged from start to finish…for if you get lazy for a second, don’t pay attention to the details, you might miss something. This type of novel, admittedly, is not my usual cup of tea, but it was one that I enjoyed nonetheless.

The… Continue

Hello! This is my first post on this site though I have been blogging for a couple years on other sites. I talk about my experience as a writer that leads to a story mixed with stories about my life in the country. Welcome to Booksbyfay's Blog

Authors have always been lucky enough to have a built in stress reliever whether they know it or not. It’s called writing a book. Once I’m working on my characters and their lives for a new book I’m so absorbed that nothing or no one in…
