The suspense entrances the reader’s attention. Each chapter offers new twists and surprises. I enjoyed the building suspense and drawn theories throughout. The author does not disappoint the reader!"

Begin To Walk The Talk

Tommorow morning when you awake, give God the glory for letting you see a new day. Praise him that in these troubling times you still have a job. Don't begin rehearsing how bad you know the day is going to be, but ask the Holy Spirit to lift you up and give you the strength to make it through the day. Stop talking about other people, because it really doesn't change your situation and God doesn't approve of gossip. Slow down and take a quiet moment to thank God for your job, your health, which… Continue

PLEASE HELP!!! PANIC ATTACKS

Hello all,
Now that my book is finished, I have been so sick.
I mean physically sick. I felt good writing it because
my thoughts were, I need to help someone, now
I am terrified of the thought of others reading
the things that happened to me and the things that
I did. I cannot sleep nor can I eat. I have panic attacks
and night sweats. WHY am I feeling like this.

My Guest

(Excerpt from the novella The Mystery of Taiwo da Silva)

Originally published by BLACK BOOKS NIGERIA

A division of Human Change Communications Company

by Omoruyi Uwuigiaren

Even as brilliant weather sat comfortably on the bare chest of the beautiful earth, and our mutual friend, the morning, took its place in the progression of days, a bizarre tale, more hellish than the enterprise of a sorcerer, crossed my threshold and led me into a gloomy morning.

I had… Continue

How Would You Change The Script?

Remember when you were a child and everything in the world was so fresh and new? Everyday was a day of new friends and fun things to do. When things didn't happen just the way you envisioned for that day you could usually stomp your feet or cry and scream to let your parents know how this day is supposed to go and they better make it happen. From this tender age you were very aware of the buttons that needed to be pushed to get your way. I believe this is where Satan gets his first glimpse of… Continue

Where were you when you learned the truth about Santa Claus?

Well, I've done it again. I've double-booked myself, and during the Christmas rush, no less, when I need every spare moment to finish the shopping I've been avoiding.
