Puzzles, chaos and planning

n the midst of all this chaos is a writer trying to sell books. I have a book promotion running with Best Indie Books for my novel, HELL’S GATE, but how successful has it been up to now, or will it be? Well, it’s been running for a couple of weeks and I have sold zero. I suppose it all comes down to marketing again. Without a professional approach, or at least a pseudo professional approach, I suppose my sales will reflect my ability as a market man and not the quality of the…

Poem: Intoxicated

O my gracious Lord,

I come into Your Presence,

wanting to touch Your Essence

and to become intoxicated

via Your Holy Spirit.

Let Your joy overflow

over this broken vessel,

as souls quietly wrestle

with faith’s development

in fear and trembling.

Permit me, patient Lord,

to let troubles fade away

temporarily on this day,

as I commune with You

and meditate Your Holy Writ.

O Lord, stir my heart;

pierce its inner…

Poem: Analysis of the Game of Risk?

Are there real lessons to be learned,

from playing the board Game of Risk?

Is it just a fun, leisurely past time

with gameplay that can be fairly brisk?

Its premise promotes outright conflict,

albeit on a miniature scale and timetable.

With some posturing and open discussions,

attacks proceed without mortality tables.

Between uneasy alliances (based on lies)

and few verbal, unenforceable treaties,

what attitudes are honed while…

Territorial Disputes in Asia

Ship%20for%20Wiki.jpg

In some parts of the world corrupt, evil and aggressive politicians can simply raise any claims for territory which historically was unknown to them. Isn’t this why most of the wars were fought? People simply walked into your territory, forcing the natives inland or killing them. Then after some years, they claimed the territory belonged to them and they…

Wishing Witch

My Halloween screenplay is funny as can be

It’s funny how witchcraft is what we need to see

Brewing up trouble with all your classmates

The teacher will get angry, make no mistake

Crazy riddles from a child can be so scary

Being her classmate leaves you feeling wary

You may start a princess and end as a boar

As her riddles will leave you in an uproar

Will you return to normal after all this nonsense

Is the question…
