Brilliant, yes, I just wrote brilliant. Have I caught your attention yet? “Sharpshooter” by David Hoof is an amazing novel, flat out mesmerizing from the first page to the last. His style is totally unique; his gift of prose writing phenomenal, and this novel just is one intense read. I am going out a limb here and saying that this maybe one of, if not the best novels, I have read this year. Yes, that is how strongly I feel about the work this author has turned out…

Is it just me, or has our society become increasingly, narcissistic? Up until the past few years, I really hadn't even heard this word used before. But, to start things off, some of its meanings are stated below from the online source, Wikipedia:



Narcissism is a term with a wide range of meanings, depending on…

I don’t know if you know this or not, but I love bocce! I love to play it and I also enjoy watching others enjoy it. Two digital short stories have poured out of my laptop and gone out into the world, published by Trestle Press called: “I Have Chrome Balls, Don’t You? And the sequel to it “Holy Chrome Bocce Balls on Fire!” To take that a bit further, wait did I just say I am going to take something further, what a surprise, let me finish… To take it a bit further I have begun forming…

It’s very surprising that “SATOR Squares”

seem to appear everywhere

the mighty Roman army had gone;

can they together, really belong?

Can anyone else see

Lately, I've been getting into the interview thing. You'd be surprised how

many bloggers are looking for material and are willing to give an interview

with nothing in return. Of course, whenever I'm interviewed I promote it

heavily throughout the web which drives traffic to their blog. It's a symbiotic

partnership. Though I'm not sure how many sales these interviews generate, it

My husband said I had to do this one, he knows how much I enjoy these types of stories. Up to this point the only types of Amish stories I have been able to find were full length novels. When he told me this is a brand new short story series, I was very happy to read it. I had not heard of this author before, but she instantly won me over with her definitions in the beginning and her recipe at the end; I just loved the little touches she added.

The story in between is the best part…

Darren Sant is a man of many hats; he is a writer, he is a blogger (Close to The Bone), and I think he may drink rather heavily if there is any truth told on his blog. It seems he and his mates over there are always finding a reason to raise a pint or quart in someone’s or something’s honor. Understand, Darren Sant is a loyal subject of the Queen over there in merry old England. Why do I bring up that point? It gives you a little more understanding into his dark sense of humor,…
