Mission 9

Story 9 

For me, understanding the principals of the Kingdom of God was a bit like Paul’s Damascus Road experience, I fell off my donkey and a bright light came on.  Only I fell off the donkey very slowly and the light came on very gradually, rather like…

Christian/Inspirational authors panel today at 5.30pm EST on The G-ZONE

The week just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Today I have at least three authors on the blogtalk radio show at 5.30 pm EST today. They are in no particular order: Karen Anna Vogel, Karen Malena and Roger Rheinheimer. Will we have fun, you bet, that was a bad question.

Karen Anna Vogel is the author of the hugely successful “Amish Knitting Circle” digital short story series. Her first one “Beginnings-Volume 1”, hit Number One on the Amazon Kindle charts for short stories. Not in its…

Ninety nine cents, what the heck am I getting?

For ninety-nine cents, what the heck am I getting? In most cases a lot! Think about this moment and follow with me. When you went to the supermarket last time what did that buck grab you? A pack of gum, no, a 20 oz. carbonated beverage, again no, toilet paper, one roll and a little change maybe, a loaf of bread, again no. Enough of that? Good. Now picture an author hard at work on a story. How long do you think they labor over a digital short story? Minutes, an hour, more? I go with the more…

I love a mystery

I love to travel and I love a mystery! That's why, whenever I go on vacation and visit a city that I've never been to before, I search for a local bookstore where I scan the shelves, looking for mystery/suspense novels by local authors. I do this for two reasons. First, I think it's important to support writers everywhere (maybe someday, someone will return the favor) and secondly, because, when I come home and return to my daily life, I can open the pages and escape to the place I've just… Continue

Stephen H. King Guest Post

I’m Stephen King.  Really, that’s my name.  No, not that one.  I’m the other Stephen King, or TOSK as I sometimes sign my blog posts and other works.  No. I didn’t write all those scary books.  No, I don’t live in Maine; it’s one of the few states, in fact, that I’ve never even visited. 

 

Yes, I’ve been answering questions with the above phrases for most of my life.

 

I’m Stephen H. King.  I didn’t write the scary books, but I did write Married to Mars, a…

Dream Walker - Velda Brotherton, Author



Dream Walker – Review by Martha A. Cheves, Author of Stir, Laugh, Repeat and Think With Your Taste Buds – Desserts



“Hear that, Injun,” Doaks snarled.  “They don’t want me to kill ye.  What do you think?”  She wanted to cry out that she was a white as she was red.  White like her father.  It would mean nothing to these men.  To them it only…

The Societal "We"

That history began when we were born.

Rather than 1900,…

Favorite authors were and still are Laura Ingalls Wilder and Louisa May Alcott.
