BLURB: Just Desserts For Sisters

The tiny chapel church had a weekly women’s coffee clutch called Just Dessert For Sisters. The free cakes, pies, and coffee were supposed to attract new members. Yet only three faithful sisters gathered in the quaint kitchen at the round table that fall season. They followed the scripture that commanded to eat, drink and be merry. It was their one sanity preserver in this life. From the eldest to the youngest, they laughed as they recalled the golden days of the past. They challenged each other to recall better times in the age of B.M. meaning Before Marriage. Meanwhile they grimaced that their marriages were hell on earth.

This is, by the way, for a five-page short story.

BLURB: The Hypocrisy of America

The premise of The Hypocrisy of America is, as Americans, we are almost brainwashed into thinking if we are doing something throughout the world, it must be just. Of course, many times this is far from the truth. I didn’t write this book to just bash America. I wrote this book because I love America and I want it to be as amazing as it’s ideals. This book is written for the average American with humor and real life experiences sprinkled throughout. The reader will learn much and truly enjoy the read. You will not be disappointed.

I think that guarantee may not hold water.

BLURB: Hello friend, 2nd Edition

I began writing posts that started with “Hello friend,” on Facebook. They were nothing more than just random thoughts I had though most of them were motivational or uplifting (by my estimation) in nature. I wrote them for no other reason than to write them.

And I’ll read them for no other… Wait, I won’t.

BLURB: Outre (Deviation Trilogy)

is the first book in a trilogy titled Deviation. The trilogy offers different perspectives on what happened in Pinkerton, Iowa, in the year 1989. The goal of Outré is to take one event (a tornado), add another sent of events (women missing, people dead, animal mutilations, the possibility of aliens and alien abduction, others different than the norm) and come to a perspective of what could have happened. This is Jack Cahill’s account. Fifteen-year-old Jack Cahill, along with his friends Pitts and Diddleman, are lead to believe it was not a tornado that destroyed a large area of Pinkerton but an alien abduction. Their “need to know” sets them on a quest of speculation, accusation, and investigation.
The concept for the trilogy comes from the question: Can we ever be sure that our perception of things is right?

Somehow, I imagine the author smoking a pipe while telling us this.
