Look Here to See What’s in the Health Care Bill: CHILLING!
July 23, 2009
By - Contributing Editor Larry Schweikart
Take a look at what actually is in the Health Care bill. Obama makes disingenuous comments like "You'll still keep your doctor" or "You'll keep your existing health care." He is either lying to us or he has no idea what is in it. Take a peek at the full report, or look at some of the highlights here:
Pg 22 of the HC Bill mandates the Government will audit books of all employers that self insure. Can you imagine what that will do to small businesses? Every one will abandon “self insurance” and go on Government insurance. So when Obama says that there will still be private health care, it’s simply a lie: this mandate will force employers to abandon their private plans.
Pg 30 Sec 123 of HC bill – a Government committee (good luck with that!) will decide what treatments/benefits a person may receive.
Pg 29 lines 4-16 in the HC bill - YOUR HEALTHCARE WILL BE RATIONED! (We all knew this, because health care is rationed in Canada and Britain, but Obama kept saying it would not be).
Pg 42 of HC Bill – The Health Choices Commissioner will choose your HC Benefits for you. You will have no choice!
PG 50 Section 152 in HC bill - HC will be provided to ALL non US citizens, illegal or otherwise.
Pg 58 HC Bill – Government will have real-time access to individual’s finances and a National ID Healthcard will be issued!
Pg 59 HC Bill lines 21-24 Government will have direct access to your bank accts for election funds transfer
PG 65 Sec 164 is a payoff subsidized plan for retirees and their families in Unions & community organizations (read: ACORN).
Pg 72 Lines 8-14 Government will create an HC Exchange to bring private HC plans under Government control.
PG 84 Sec 203 HC bill - Government mandates ALL benefit packages for private HC plans in the Exchange.
PG 85 Line 7 HC Bill - Specifics of Benefit Levels for Plans = The Government will ration your Healthcare!
PG 91 Lines 4-7 HC Bill - Government mandates linguistic appropriate services. Example - Translation for illegal aliens.
Pg 95 HC Bill Lines 8-18 The Government will use groups, i.e. ACORN & Americorps, to sign up individuals for Government HC plan.
PG 85 Line 7 HC Bill - Specifics of Benefit Levels for Plans. AARP members - your Health care WILL be rationed.
-PG 102 Lines 12-18 HC Bill - Medicaid Eligible Individuals will be automatically enrolled in Medicaid. No choice.
pg 124 lines 24-25 HC No company can sue Government on price fixing. No "judicial review" against Government Monopoly.
pg 127 Lines 1-16 HC Bill - Doctors/ AMA - The Government will tell YOU what you can earn.
Pg 145 Line 15-17 An Employer MUST auto enroll employees into public option plan. NO CHOICE.
Pg 126 Lines 22-25 Employers MUST pay for HC for part time employees AND their families.
Pg 149 Lines 16-24 ANY Employer with payroll $400k & above who does not provide public option pays 8% tax on all payroll.
pg 150 Lines 9-13 Businesses with payroll between $251k & $400k who don’t provide public option pay 2-6% tax on all payroll.
Pg 167 Lines 18-23 ANY individual who doesn’t have acceptable HC according to Government will be taxed 2.5% of income.
Pg 170 Lines 1-3 HC Bill Any NONRESIDENT Alien is exempt from individual taxes. (Americans will pay.)
Pg 195 HC Bill -officers & employees of HC Admin (the GOVERNMENT) will have access to ALL Americans’ finances and personal records.
PG 203 Line 14-15 HC - "The tax imposed under this section shall not be treated as tax" Yes, it says that.
Pg 239 Line 14-24 HC Bill Government will reduce physician services for Medicaid. Seniors, low income, poor affected.
Pg 241 Line 6-8 HC Bill – Doctors – doesn’t matter what specialty – will all be paid the same.
PG 253 Line 10-18 Government sets value of Doctor’s time, professional judgment, etc. Literally, value of humans.
PG 265 Sec 1131 Government mandates & controls productivity for private HC industries.
PG 268 Sec 1141 Federal Government regulates rental & purchase of power driven wheelchairs.
PG 272 SEC. 1145. TREATMENT OF CERTAIN CANCER HOSPITALS - Cancer patients - welcome to rationing!
Page 280 Sec 1151 The Government will penalize hospitals for what Government deems preventable readmissions.
Pg 298 Lines 9-11 Doctors who treat a patient during initial admission that results in a readmission - Government will penalize you.
Pg 317 L 13-20 OMG!! PROHIBITION on ownership/investment. Government tells Doctors what/how much they can own.
Pg 317-318 lines 21-25,1-3 PROHIBITION on expansion - Government will mandate hospitals cannot expand.
pg 321 2-13 Hospitals have opportunity to apply for exception BUT community input required. Can you say ACORN?!
Pg 335 L 16-25 Pg 336-339 - Government mandates establishment of outcome-based measures which of course forces health care rationing.
Pg 341 Lines 3-9 Government has authority to disqualify Medicare Adv Plans, HMOs, etc., forcing people into Government plan.
Pg 354 Sec 1177 - Government will RESTRICT enrollment of Special needs people!
Pg 379 Sec 1191 Government creates more bureaucracy - Telehealth Advisory Committee. HC by phone.
PG 425 Lines 4-12 Government mandates Advance Care Planning Consultations. Think Senior Citizens end of life prodding.
Pg 425 Lines 17-19 Government will instruct & consult regarding living wills, durable powers of attorney. Mandatory!
PG 425 Lines 22-25, 426 Lines 1-3 Government provides approved list of end of life resources, guiding you in how to die.
PG 427 Lines 15-24 Government mandates program for orders for end of life. The Government has a say in how your life ends.
Pg 429 Lines 1-9 An "advanced care planning consultant" will be used frequently as patients’ health deteriorates.
PG 429 Lines 10-12 "advanced care consultation" may include an ORDER for end of life plans. AN ORDER from the Government to end a life!
Pg 429 Lines 13-25 - The Government will specify which Doctors can write an end of life order.
PG 430 Lines 11-15 The Government will decide what level of treatment you will have at end of life.
Pg 469 - Community Based Home Medical Services/Non profit orgs. (ACORN Medical Services here?)
Page 472 Lines 14-17 PAYMENT TO COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATION. 1 monthly payment to a community-based organization. (Like ACORN?)
PG 489 Sec 1308 The Government will cover Marriage & Family therapy. Which means they will insert Government into our marriages.
Pg 494-498 Government will cover Mental Health Services including defining, creating, rationing those services. You’d better speak up now before you are on the "advanced care consultation" list.
Recently I had a talk with a colleague (one on my side of the aisle) about the increasingly dire threat posed to this country by the unholy trinity of Obama/Reid-Pelosi/ and the media. The upshot of this person's question to me was, "What can you say that will give me some hope? Some optimism? Is there a way we can reach the kids, the students, and the younger people?"
We aren't quite "done" yet, but the old thermometer is edging up by the day, and I don't mean global warming. Cap and Trade (i.e., "cap and tax") has passed the House and our hopes of avoiding federal enviro-nazis swooping into our homes and clamping down "do not sell" restrictions on our houses until we comply with their inane regulations hangs on the votes of a few left-wing Democrat senators who in the past have shown no inclination to challenge Harry Reid. (You see, the Democrat Party has this habit of actually punishing so-called "mavericks" who criticize Dem leadership.) Real-life Gong-Show refugees such as Al Franken now will vote on your right to drive what you want and eat what you want. But that's only the tip of the iceberg.
There is new twitter about the C02 pollution of computers. Once the computer becomes the next SUV, what sites, exactly, do you think will be deemed the most "polluting?" You got it: Drudge, FreeRepublic; Redstate; and a host of conservative sites. Guess which ones will be ok? Huffington Post, MSNBC, and Daily Kos.
But it gets worse: the National Socialist (that would be Nazi, if you were in Germany) Health Care system that is now about to come up for a vote will absolutely eliminate private health care options. Do not kid yourself: They are going to say that they aren't going to interfere with your right to go to your "own doctor" or have
your own "private health insurance." But there won't be non-government doctors or private health insurance if the government mandates them out of existence.
Do not forget that this was a major goal of Hillarycare just 15 years ago. Once people found out, it caused a firestorm – but times have changed. The media was atrocious then, but it's a 100 percent propaganda machine for the Left today. A few holdouts, such as Fox and Rush, remind me of the brave Dutch shouting at the storm troopers before they were gunned down. If Health Care or Cap and Tax fail, the media will see it as the failure of their guy, and in their view, Obama must not be allowed to fail.
Even still, I hear people who want to "get past all this partisanship." Sorry, but GROW UP!!!!
Our system from the beginning has pitted one group against another out of fear of the very giant government that is metastasizing before our eyes. James Madison didn't like "parties" or "factions," but he finally admitted that they were absolutely necessary to fragment power. In Washington today, however, we nearly have one political party: the Democrats, who march in lock step with Obama while the cowardly Republicans who, aside from a few heroes (John Kyl, Jeff Sessions, Jim DeMint come to mind in the Senate, and most of those remaining in the House), are merely "me-too Democrats."
For our system to work there has to be a clear choice, not a mushy middle, because the mushy middle always, always, always gravitates left. There is a "presumption of power" on the left –conservatives, by nature, do not like government, don't trust it, and do not want to use it to advance their ends, which they see as advanced through liberty, individual achievement, and entrepreneurship.
If Republicans do not unite 100 percent –and soon – behind the idea that the unholy trinity must be stopped dead or we will not have the American Republic that we have all known all our lives, it may soon be too late. Maybe it's time all of you got just a little mad.

Emotion filled, heartfelt, with both suspense and romance, Shirley Roe has given fans another five star novel! We were introduced to the Whittaker family in Of Dreams and Nightmares. The Whittaker Family Reunion takes readers back to 1881 and the family is reunited once again. Martha and Jeremy await the arrival of their two sons, Abraham from Mississippi and Ezekiel, from England. The third son Isaac lives near St. Louis and is anxious to see his brothers again. Daughter Anna is spoiled and nothing but trouble. Abraham arrives with a woman, much to the family's surprise. Ezekiel makes a narrow escape in England. Will the reunion be a happy one? Who will leave St. Louis in disgrace? Will Martha get to spend time with her entire family before tragedy strikes? The reunion is shadowed by another man, one seeking revenge; will he get what he wants? Will he kill one or all of them?

Author Tina Howe with Book 2 of The Telling of Xunr-kun
The Trail Folks of Xunar-Kun
It is four cycles later. The Folk and Trailmen have accepted that they are part of something greater than themselves. They have come together as “the Seekers”. Their purpose: to find the true Parents of the Orphans.
But they find something much more insidious and more lethal than any threat they have faced before.
Tina Field Howe lives in Corning, New York. Her first novel, Alysa of the Fields, Book One in the Tellings of Xunar-kun, won the 2006 Dream Realm Awards for Cover Art. She has published illustrations internationally in several books and other media. In addition to writing stories, poetry and screenplays, Tina has been a freelance communications designer since 1995. She creates everything from web content and graphics to business communications. Although creative in various media all her life, Tina became serious about writing during the 1980s. Tina is available for talks, writing workshops, readings, and signings. Visit Tina Field Howe Multi-Creative to view her extensive portfolio. She also teaches writing workshops.
Tina holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Anthropology and Art. Her favorite college studies included physical and cultural anthropology, archaeology, studio art, and art history. Her love of creativity, her interest in diverse peoples, and the experience of her own struggles inspired her to write Alysa of the Fields, in which she created the cultures, religions, and creatures. She has been writing for several years, mainly business communications, poetry, screenplays, web content, and short stories.
Tina illustrated the book’s cover and graphics, as well. She has been involved in digital graphic design since the ‘90s and for most of her life has been creating artwork in some form.
Where did Tina grow up? Tina grew up in Waverly, New York, a village on the border of northern Pennsylvania. Although she lived in the middle of town, she was not far from nature, as several acres of abandoned farmland behind her home had grown into a small forest that the neighborhood children called “the Woods”. It was fortunate that the Woods bordered her back yard (nature plays a very important role in Alysa).
The many neighborhood children (post-WWII baby boomers) spent hours involved with nature and her many creatures. If nobody happened to be around to play with, Tina had no qualms about spending time by herself in the Woods - alone, but not really, as nature is a good friend and filled the hours with birdsong, musky smells of vegetation turning to soil, and solace found beneath the shelter of pine branches laden with snow.
Where does she get her ideas? She gets her ideas from her life; sometimes from the lives of others; sometimes, it seems, from thin air! Tina loves to imagine. What if? is one of her favorite imagination stimulators. When the What if? sends her into her imagination, she tries to discover details she hasn’t seen (or read) anywhere else. Truly, the process of writing is the process of self-discovery for Tina. Through writing, the tapestry of her life becomes apparent to her. In writing for others, she learns much along the way. It is her hope that her readers come away feeling changed in some way...a good way. The most influential authors (not all fiction) in Tina’s life are Ursula K. LeGuin, Piers Anthony, Anne McCaffrey, Don Miguel Ruiz, Ray Bradbury, and Robert Heinlein.
Can Tina come and speak to our group? The author is an experienced speaker and actress, having talked many times to school groups. She is available for school writing workshops, book signings, radio interviews, speaking engagements, school presentations, and professional gatherings.
Tina also wrote and illustrated a children’s picture book titled Snailsworth, a slow little story. 24 pages. Full color cover and interior. ISBN 978-0-9768585-3-9. Available from the author, Amazon.com, B&N.com, and a thousand other online booksellers. Visit Snailsworth’s website!

Award Winning Author Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc with Playing Devil's Advocate.
Playing devil's Advocate:
Blayre Tabers has the perfect life or so it seems. That is until the day he comes home from school to find his parent’s disgustingly mutilated corpses. Losing all sanity he runs away. Failed by the child welfare system designed to protect him, he spends the next ten years of his life in a downward spiral, sickeningly abused, twistedly tortured and finally—as an adult—homeless. Hating God he makes a deal with the devil to serve him. But what he doesn't realize is that the devil owns more than Blayre's soul. Blayre is furious to discover the devil’s treachery and plots to not only pay the devil back for his deceit but regain the object the Dark One stole from him. With the help of a kind cop and a renegade demon he sets out to do what no man has ever done before and lived...double cross and defeat Satan himself!

Author Gloria Teaque with Beyond The Surgeons Touch.
I was born in Tennessee, near the Smoky Mountains, a region abounding with natural beauty, the birthplace of country music and Jack Daniels whiskey. Even though I currently live in another state, Tennessee is, and always will be, my home.
Now I'm called an Okie and I'm not quite sure I like that term but the natives don't seem to mind. Hey, even Merle Haggard sang about being proud to be an Okie from Muskogee! I live in a very small town on Lake Keystone, about 25 miles from Tulsa. I'm married (the reason I moved to Oklahoma) and I have two grown daughters and a very spoiled Boston terrier named Tiger.
I won an essay contest when I was twelve. At the time I lived in France, thanks to being an Air Force brat. My mother heard about a European-wide essay contest about Law Day--May 1st. Looking back I realize this must have been a military "holiday" because no one else I know has ever heard of it. Being terribly patriotic I thought I'd give it a try. There were only ten winners across Europe and I was one of those ten. The winners got to go to a courtroom in their country and watch a day of trials with lunch at an outdoor cafe. Even though I hadn't learned a great deal of French yet, I thought it was wonderful! That night as I lay in bed, totally exhausted, I had an epiphany. "I think of something, put it on paper, and someone rewards me for it? Yeah, that's what I want to do when I grow up--BE A WRITER!"
I played with writing for the next several years. I never dreamed of submitting anything (no one told me about S.E. Hinton writing that killer book, The Outsiders, at the age of 16!) but I never stopped writing. I'd write scary stories and tell them to my cousins, hoping one of them would cry or run away screaming. When I hit high school I wrote stories with my friends in the leading roles. They loved it. Then I allowed life to drag me away from writing.
I came to my senses and went back to writing in 1995.
I’ve had over four dozen short stories published in national magazines, as well as serial and holiday stories published in regional newspapers. I have a short story, "The Flying Saucer", published in the anthology Shades of Tulsa and I’m a contributing author to Book Marketing A to Z. In 2004 I won first place for a short story submitted to the OWFI conference contest in the confession category. I won first place in the America Nostalgia Prose category at the OWFI conference in May, 2005 for a short story created from a chapter in Saturday Night Cocoa Fudge. I won prizes for poetry and a Sci-Fi book in OWFI writing contest in 2008. It is my pleasure to be a member of Tulsa Nightwriters and have the honor of being the editor of NightScripts, the organization’s newsletter. I’m also a member of Oklahoma Writers’ Federation, Inc. (OWFI).
Synop:
Beyond the Surgeon's Touch (One Miracle Away from Death) Do you feel that medical personnel are cold, unfeeling and put religion aside when they don the mask of their profession? The truth is they know that’s when they need divine intervention the most—when they’re face to face with death. Beyond the Surgeon’s Touch is a book of stories based on actual events that brings the staff of emergency rooms and surgical suites to life and prove that they are, after all, just human.

Where did Tina grow up? Tina grew up in Waverly, New York, a village on the border of northern Pennsylvania. Although she lived in the middle of town, she was not far from nature, as several acres of abandoned farmland behind her home had grown into a small forest that the neighborhood children called “the Woods”. It was fortunate that the Woods bordered her back yard (nature plays a very important role in Alysa).
The many neighborhood children (post-WWII baby boomers) spent hours involved with nature and her many creatures. If nobody happened to be around to play with, Tina had no qualms about spending time by herself in the Woods - alone, but not really, as nature is a good friend and filled the hours with birdsong, musky smells of vegetation turning to soil, and solace found beneath the shelter of pine branches laden with snow.
Where does she get her ideas? She gets her ideas from her life; sometimes from the lives of others; sometimes, it seems, from thin air! Tina loves to imagine. What if? is one of her favorite imagination stimulators. When the What if? sends her into her imagination, she tries to discover details she hasn’t seen (or read) anywhere else. Truly, the process of writing is the process of self-discovery for Tina. Through writing, the tapestry of her life becomes apparent to her. In writing for others, she learns much along the way. It is her hope that her readers come away feeling changed in some way...a good way. The most influential authors (not all fiction) in Tina’s life are Ursula K. LeGuin, Piers Anthony, Anne McCaffrey, Don Miguel Ruiz, Ray Bradbury, and Robert Heinlein.
Can Tina come and speak to our group? The author is an experienced speaker and actress, having talked many times to school groups. She is available for school writing workshops, book signings, radio interviews, speaking engagements, school presentations, and professional gatherings.
Tina also wrote and illustrated a children’s picture book titled Snailsworth, a slow little story. 24 pages. Full color cover and interior. ISBN 978-0-9768585-3-9. Available from the author, Amazon.com, B&N.com, and a thousand other online booksellers. Visit Snailsworth’s website!

Award Winning Author Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc with Playing Devil's Advocate.
Playing devil's Advocate:
Blayre Tabers has the perfect life or so it seems. That is until the day he comes home from school to find his parent’s disgustingly mutilated corpses. Losing all sanity he runs away. Failed by the child welfare system designed to protect him, he spends the next ten years of his life in a downward spiral, sickeningly abused, twistedly tortured and finally—as an adult—homeless. Hating God he makes a deal with the devil to serve him. But what he doesn't realize is that the devil owns more than Blayre's soul. Blayre is furious to discover the devil’s treachery and plots to not only pay the devil back for his deceit but regain the object the Dark One stole from him. With the help of a kind cop and a renegade demon he sets out to do what no man has ever done before and lived...double cross and defeat Satan himself!
Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc:

Author Gloria Teaque with Beyond The Surgeons Touch.
I was born in Tennessee, near the Smoky Mountains, a region abounding with natural beauty, the birthplace of country music and Jack Daniels whiskey. Even though I currently live in another state, Tennessee is, and always will be, my home.
Now I'm called an Okie and I'm not quite sure I like that term but the natives don't seem to mind. Hey, even Merle Haggard sang about being proud to be an Okie from Muskogee! I live in a very small town on Lake Keystone, about 25 miles from Tulsa. I'm married (the reason I moved to Oklahoma) and I have two grown daughters and a very spoiled Boston terrier named Tiger.
I won an essay contest when I was twelve. At the time I lived in France, thanks to being an Air Force brat. My mother heard about a European-wide essay contest about Law Day--May 1st. Looking back I realize this must have been a military "holiday" because no one else I know has ever heard of it. Being terribly patriotic I thought I'd give it a try. There were only ten winners across Europe and I was one of those ten. The winners got to go to a courtroom in their country and watch a day of trials with lunch at an outdoor cafe. Even though I hadn't learned a great deal of French yet, I thought it was wonderful! That night as I lay in bed, totally exhausted, I had an epiphany. "I think of something, put it on paper, and someone rewards me for it? Yeah, that's what I want to do when I grow up--BE A WRITER!"
I played with writing for the next several years. I never dreamed of submitting anything (no one told me about S.E. Hinton writing that killer book, The Outsiders, at the age of 16!) but I never stopped writing. I'd write scary stories and tell them to my cousins, hoping one of them would cry or run away screaming. When I hit high school I wrote stories with my friends in the leading roles. They loved it. Then I allowed life to drag me away from writing.
I came to my senses and went back to writing in 1995.
I’ve had over four dozen short stories published in national magazines, as well as serial and holiday stories published in regional newspapers. I have a short story, "The Flying Saucer", published in the anthology Shades of Tulsa and I’m a contributing author to Book Marketing A to Z. In 2004 I won first place for a short story submitted to the OWFI conference contest in the confession category. I won first place in the America Nostalgia Prose category at the OWFI conference in May, 2005 for a short story created from a chapter in Saturday Night Cocoa Fudge. I won prizes for poetry and a Sci-Fi book in OWFI writing contest in 2008. It is my pleasure to be a member of Tulsa Nightwriters and have the honor of being the editor of NightScripts, the organization’s newsletter. I’m also a member of Oklahoma Writers’ Federation, Inc. (OWFI).
Synop:
Beyond the Surgeon's Touch (One Miracle Away from Death) Do you feel that medical personnel are cold, unfeeling and put religion aside when they don the mask of their profession? The truth is they know that’s when they need divine intervention the most—when they’re face to face with death. Beyond the Surgeon’s Touch is a book of stories based on actual events that brings the staff of emergency rooms and surgical suites to life and prove that they are, after all, just human.

She lives in California, where she’s currently at work on her next book in the series.
Synop:
Emily Stone doesn’t have a badge. But that hasn’t stopped her from tracking down some of the West’s most dangerous child-killers. Armed with a digital SLR camera, laptop computer and her trusty Beretta, Stone uses her innate gift for detective work to identify the perps — and then anonymously e-mail the evidence to the cops.
Now, the hunt for two brazen serial killers on the loose right in her own coastal California town threatens to expose Stone’s identity — unraveling her carefully constructed cover and jeopardizing her life’s work. But when she gets too close to the action, this razor-sharp hunter becomes the hunted. Cooperating with the handsome local police detective could be the only hope for stopping the rampage directed at unsuspecting young women — and saving herself. Can they piece together the clues in time?
Compulsion mixes CSI-style investigation with a ripped-from-the-headlines plot and a dose of romance for a keeps-you-guessing, fast-paced and savvy thriller, right up until the shocking finale

Synop:
The history of a curse is fraught with bloody battles, bitter hatred, and dark secrets.
Through five generations, ghosts of war haunt the Wise Women. When the Rebellion of Glenna ends, their curse sleeps bound in the Tunnels of the Dead, waiting for its chance to re-awaken the battle between the Wood People and Dalthwein Clans.
Claire, a distraught young Wise Woman born in the sacred valley of the fae, unwittingly helps it escape imprisonment. While her twin sister, Anna, receives psychic glimpses of ancient secrets she must unravel. With her scribe teacher, Rosalind, she also struggles to uncover the reasons behind Claire’s strange behavior, ever escalating since the death of their Guild Mother, Grianne.
The Age of the Wise Women will cease, if the curse does not end with Anna and Claire. Perhaps inheriting the mistakes of their ancestors, and learning the truths of their identities, will bring great suffering for these witch twins?

For him, duty comes first. So when he intervenes one night to save Sarah from the murderous hands of a daemon and discovers she has the innate ability to fight them, he of course steps in and offers to train her. Daemons notwithstanding, the job would be much easier and their relationship less complicated if Dorian didn’t also happen to be the hottest thing this side of hell. Now instead of spending her nights in the library Sarah spends them with Dorian, keeping the city safe from monsters and sending them back where they belong. Whether she wants to or not, Sarah has to face the facts: daemons exist, she possesses the power to kill them, and she may never make it to Calculus on time again. That’s the Trouble with Destiny...

.." target="_self">
Synop:
The history of a curse is fraught with bloody battles, bitter hatred, and dark secrets.
Through five generations, ghosts of war haunt the Wise Women. When the Rebellion of Glenna ends, their curse sleeps bound in the Tunnels of the Dead, waiting for its chance to re-awaken the battle between the Wood People and Dalthwein Clans.
Claire, a distraught young Wise Woman born in the sacred valley of the fae, unwittingly helps it escape imprisonment. While her twin sister, Anna, receives psychic glimpses of ancient secrets she must unravel. With her scribe teacher, Rosalind, she also struggles to uncover the reasons behind Claire’s strange behavior, ever escalating since the death of their Guild Mother, Grianne.
The Age of the Wise Women will cease, if the curse does not end with Anna and Claire. Perhaps inheriting the mistakes of their ancestors, and learning the truths of their identities, will bring great suffering for these witch twins?

Author J.K. Coi with The Trouble With Destiny
J.K. Coi lives in Ontario with her amazingly supportive husband and son. She graduated university with a degree in history and in law, and has worked for many years in the legal field, with a current focus in intellectual property law.
Writing has always been an important part of her life, and when she leaves the office, she leaves it all behind to immerse herself in a world of fantasy—of demons and magic, fascinating warriors and the women strong enough to love them.
Synop:
Mild-mannered Sarah McInnes just wants to be left alone. She’s looking forward to finishing graduate school and then working a nice, normal nine-to-five job as an accountant. But when fate interferes with her carefully laid plans in the form of the mysterious and sexy Dorian, her life takes an unexpected detour. Dorian is a take-no-prisoners kind of guy. For him, duty comes first. So when he intervenes one night to save Sarah from the murderous hands of a daemon and discovers she has the innate ability to fight them, he of course steps in and offers to train her. Daemons notwithstanding, the job would be much easier and their relationship less complicated if Dorian didn’t also happen to be the hottest thing this side of hell. Now instead of spending her nights in the library Sarah spends them with Dorian, keeping the city safe from monsters and sending them back where they belong. Whether she wants to or not, Sarah has to face the facts: daemons exist, she possesses the power to kill them, and she may never make it to Calculus on time again. That’s the Trouble with Destiny...

Managing Editor of all Book reviews Shirley Roe
The Whittaker Family Reunion
In depth historical research makes this novel an education as well as a very entertaining read. With characters so real they feel like family, readers won't be able to put this book down. The Whittaker Family Reunion is the sequel to Of Dreams and Nightmares but stands alone for new readers. As with the first book in the series, this one leaves us wanting more. Emotion filled, heartfelt, with both suspense and romance, Shirley Roe has given fans another five star novel! We were introduced to the Whittaker family in Of Dreams and Nightmares. The Whittaker Family Reunion takes readers back to 1881 and the family is reunited once again. Martha and Jeremy await the arrival of their two sons, Abraham from Mississippi and Ezekiel, from England. The third son Isaac lives near St. Louis and is anxious to see his brothers again. Daughter Anna is spoiled and nothing but trouble. Abraham arrives with a woman, much to the family's surprise. Ezekiel makes a narrow escape in England. Will the reunion be a happy one? Who will leave St. Louis in disgrace? Will Martha get to spend time with her entire family before tragedy strikes? The reunion is shadowed by another man, one seeking revenge; will he get what he wants? Will he kill one or all of them?
Author, Shirley A. Roe divides her time between Southern Ontario, Scotland and Florida. Shirley travels extensively with her husband and is always researching her newest project.

Award winning author Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc with The Sampson Gene.
www.lulu.com
The Sampson Gene by R. Scott Rutherford and Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc
The Sampson Gene is the first story by Scott to see print and Andrea, as story writer, is honored to call this her first foray off the beaten path of the established genres she has taken by storm.
The Sampson Gene is a novel of Apocalyptic proportions!
Based on some biblical fact and a lot of fiction, The Sampson Gene follows a man of divine heritage who has lived decade after decade, though wars and all of the world's most memorable events.
He has lived long enough to see the present become the past and though he has tried to live as normally as possible, he has been called upon by a secret Vatican based organization to help stop the one enemy he hoped he'd never live to see...the Anti Christ himself!
Available in paperback and a special collector's edition hardback that differs slightly from the paperback, Sampson will thrill you and make you think about what the future holds for not only America, but the world in general.
Other books are The Two, A Man of Two Worlds, Michael, Playing Devils Advocate. New book covers for all.

Joshua Jay with Magic the Complete Course.
Joshua Jay was crowned champion at the World Magic Seminar in 1998, when he was still a teenager, and today is one of America's finest young magicians. He's performed and lectured in over 50 countries, is a headliner at the Magic Castle in Hollywood, and writes a monthly column in MAGIC, the leading magazine for magicians. He lives in New York City.
Joshua Jay, one of magic's most eclectic and accomplished rising stars, has a purpose: to show people that things aren't always as they seem. And that's important, because seeing things differently is where fascination, inspiration and hope come from. Through his performances blending sleight of hand, psychology and wit … through his photography, film and art … through his writing, lecturing and innovation … Joshua Jay challenges you to challenge your perceptions, because the secret is right in front of you.
Joshua Jay has performed and lectured in over 40 countries. He is an international award-winning magician, a critically-acclaimed author, a fine-art photographer and a monthly columnist for the largest independent magazine for magicians
Movie:
The Heckler
There are things magicians do and things they'd like to do. There are things we see and things we'll never understand. There are things people expect, and things they deserve …
Enlisting a classic card trick as co-star, Joshua Jay combines an insightful portrayal of a magician's work-a-day life with a fantasy of comeuppance. His love of film, both noir and contemporary, is apparent in the shifting shadows and compelling cutting of this six-minute film.
"The Heckler" has been screened all over the world, from the Las Vegas Art of Illusion Film Fest to the New York International Film Festival.

Author Joseph Cavano with Half-Past NoWhere
Set in the scenic mountains and college towns of upstate New York, as well as the author s beloved South, Half-Past Nowhere, chronicles the life of boy as he passes from innocence to experience. Written in a style that evokes Hemingway and Faulkner, experience the struggles of our young hero from an abusive childhood, through the joys and pains of young love and finally, self discovery. At times humorous, this collection is filled with memorable characters and real life obstacles.If you were ever young you may find yourself here.
Bio:
Ignoring the advice of teachers from grade school to graduate school to dedicate his life to writing, Cavano chose in his own words, the road most travelled, and opted for the secure life of an English teacher in the secondary schools and colleges of the Hudson Valley in New York. Semi retired now, he has begun to write again, and in less than a year has put together this collection. Phineas Rising and Mountain Men have been selected as finalists in the prestigious Glimmer Train Short Story Contest. An inveterate traveler, Joe and his wife, Stephanie, live in Charlotte, North Carolina and continue to travel throughout Europe and Asia. In his spare time he plays jazz piano.
After spending a good part of my life teaching in the secondary schools and colleges of upstate New York,I began to renew my love affair with writing one year ago.In that brief time ,I put together the collection of related short stories, Half -Past Nowhere, and had it accepted for publication by the first and only publisher I contacted.Patterned after Hemingway's In Our Time, it also traces the growth of a young hero as he passes from "innocence to experience." Two of the included stories have already been awarded finalist status by Glimmer Train,one of the most prestigious of venues for the short story.
Over the years, I've used the freedom afforded a teacher to develop a myriad of interests.One of these,has been improvising jazz piano, a process not unlike the process a writer utilizes in creating a work of fiction.As a jazz pianist once told me about creating music(and literature!)" You're never where you are...you're always where your going.'Its a point I often demonstate at my many book signings
Having been born in "the charmed circle of the Catskill Mts.," it's not surprising that Nature figures prominently in some of my stories,although always as a backdrop for some universal law(the verities Faulkner called them).One of my latest stories,presently untitled,but slated to appear in my newest collection,"Love Songs in Minor Keys," which comes out next year,explores that relationship in detail.
A one time wine connoisseur,ginseng hunter,fly fisherman and still world traveler(India is my favorite by far) I happily reside in the South among the bones of Faulkner,Welty,Twain, Capote et al.
I have an M.A. in English from American University in Washington,D.C., and a B.A.in English from Marist College in Poughkeepsie,N.Y. I have also studied Philosophy at the graduate level at Georgetown.

Horror Author Andrew Wolter with NightFall.
The town of Spook Valley is far from the outcries of the city. Nestled in the rural deserts of Arizona, Spook Valley is a town in which neighbors congregate on their lawns, and doors remained unlocked throughout the midnight hours. However, it has reluctantly become home to an unknown force of evil, hellbent on destroying all humanity. For one man, life in the quaint town of Spook Valley is about to take a dramatic change as he commences a battle against creatures of legend and folklore. He will discover that the survival of the entire world rests solely upon his shoulders as he becomes entangled in a nightmarish web of the fantastic that consumes his every waking minute. The ultimate war between good and evil has arrived. It begins at nightfall.
Bio:
I like to be known as an author without genre boundaries. Many have referred to my fiction as homoerotic horror, due to the gay element that seems to make its way into my works. Perhaps, it is merely art imitating life. Notwithstanding, I'm not a whore like some of my characters in my first novel, The Rules of Temptation; nor am I an evil creature as depicted by the troupe of characters in my upcoming novel, Nightfall. I am a writer. Yes, I write what I know, and, perhaps, I have experienced such. However, a writer's job is to grip the audience; and one of the ways that he/she does this is by fabricating the truth and bending reality into a kaleidoscope of the fantastic. That said, I hope you all get a chance to enjoy my books.

Author Yvonne Mason with Silent Scream
Silent Scream
Port St. Lucie, FL - Oct 30, 2008 - Florida Author Yvonne Mason is pleased to announce the
release the true crime book Silent Scream. In 1972 Martin County Deputy Gerard Schaefer was
arrested for the aggravated assault of two young women by the name of Nancy Trotter and
Pamela Wells. They were the lucky ones. They got away.
On April 1,1973 the bodies of two more young women , Georgia Jessup and Susan Place were
found on South Hutchinson Island. They had disappeared from Fort Lauderdale on Sept 23,1972.
The police investigation which ensued led the authorities back to Gerard Schaefer who was by
this time serving six months for aggravated assault on Nancy Trotter and Susan Wells.
The firestorm and the evidence uncovered in the investigation led authorities to believe that Ex-
Martin County Deputy Sheriff Gerard Schaefer had killed more than just these four young
women. Evidence gathered during a search at his mother's home revealed at least nine and as
many as possibly thirty four over a span of six years beginning in 1966 and continuing until
1972.
Until this crime, Florida had never experienced anything like what is now known as serial
killings. Gerard Schaefer was considered the first perpetrator of this type of crime. Crime Scene
evidence testing, DNA testing and the ability to link similar crimes was primitive at best. Law
enforcement didn't communicate with each other and there was no way to tie these types of
crimes to one perpetrator. Gerard Schaefer was caught simply because he got sloppy.
Ms. Mason's Silent Scream gives the victims a voice - a voice which has been silent for over 30
years. Some of the young women were never found, some cases were never closed and there
were never any bodies to bury.
Gerard Schaefer took their voice away when he bound, gagged, hung, tortured, and buried their
bodies in remote areas. He killed in pairs so one could watch while the other was destroyed.
This is their story; this is their voice and with this voice comes the peace they have never had.
Retired FBI Agent Roy Hazelwood stated:
"Yvonne Mason has captured the true essence of Gerard Schaefer, a deputy sheriff who
enjoyed torturing and killing young women. It is a gripping story and you should prepare to be
disturbed. I guarantee that you will find it difficult to put this book down."
Det. Lieutenant Chuck Hemp OPPD Ret. also stated::
When Gerald Schaefer used his badge and gun to terrorize and kill rather than protect and serve
he crossed a line that not only snuffed out the lives of his victims but also affected the lives of
their loved ones and the police officers charged with investigating these crimes. In her book
"Silent Screams" Yvonne Mason has captured more than just the story, but has also given voices
to all of Schaefer's unknown victims. I'm sure there are many.
Ms. Mason, reminds us that at any time and any place we can become a victim.

Author and Screen Writer Ann B. Keller with The Devil's Cresent
Historical Western Fiction.
My fourth novel, THE DEVIL'S CRESCENT, was just released today through Lulu.com. This exciting western will grab your attention from the beginning and hold you spellbound until you turn the final page. What a great Christmas gift this would make!
THE DEVIL'S CRESCENT should be available on Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble.com and through Ingram's Distribution in a few short weeks. You can order a copy through Lulu.com or ask for the novel at your local bookstore.
NEW RELEASE!!! -- My fourth novel, THE DEVIL'S CRESCENT - Hardened bounty hunter Diego Montoya descends upon a small Texas village in the midst of a cloudburst and boldly plunges into the life of beautiful, small time cattle rancher, Maggie MacNaughton. Diego is a man haunted by a past filled with death and disappointment, a nobleman fleeing from the dictates of his demanding father and an arranged marriage. When a U.S. Marshall asks Diego to infiltrate a gun runner's operation, Diego reluctantly agrees, shadowing the powerful land baron, Morgan Lansing. Morgan's efforts play into the hands of a group of Mexican nationalists, who quickly claim the land vacated by the terrified settlers until only one parcel stands in the way of their march toward the border -- the one occupied by Maggie MacNaughton. Diego and Maggie match wits and wills as the danger mounts. When they are finally captured, it seems only their reliance upon each other might save them from a swift and certain death. Can a bounty hunter and a lovely cattle rancher stop a group of Mexican nationalists from retaking southern Texas? Find out in this action-packed western!
Bio:
I started writing when I was about 12 years old and have never stopped. I am the granddaughter of an award winning Ohio author and poet and already have several books published and screenplays awaiting production. I am also a veteran of the stage and was once asked to try out for the Metropolitan Opera.
I am the President of Kodron Productions, Inc. and the author and screenwriter of VORTEX OF REVELATION, a compelling novel/screenplay about the End of Days. As the ghosts of Civil War soldiers march through Gettysburg, gladiators do battle in the Coliseum in Rome and saints appear to the faithful, earthquakes rip the Earth apart while meteors streak across the solar system on a collision course with Earth. How can the human race survive the End of Days, what seems to be the end of time as we know it? Only funding stands in the way of our bringing this incredible picture to the silver screen. For now, you can purchase VORTEX OF REVELATION through Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble or Target.com. Ask for it at your favorite bookstore under A.B. Keller.
TREVOR'S LOVE, my second published novel, is a contemporary romance about the growing attraction between a handsome, but ruthless executive living in the fast lane and the temporary assistant who slowly but surely, finds a way into his heart. This story is set in Cleveland, Ohio and features many of the things I noticed in my long business career. The flashy, superficial lifestyle of the rich and famous often lacks depth and true meaning, the heart and sense of belonging to which all of us cling in those quiet moments when the tinsel-type friends depart and the only comfort we find is in the arms of those we love. You can find TREVOR'S LOVE through Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble and PublishAmerica.com. Request it by name at your local bookstore, too! You'll be glad you did.
BRIGGEN, a science fiction/fantasy was published by TRIAD Publishing Group in April, 2008. BRIGGEN is a riveting page turner that will have you perched on the edge of your seat as this brawny warrior prince rushes across the galaxy, battling aliens and assassins, dealing with an ornery wizard and a proud dragon, and finally succumbing to the charms of a beautiful sorceress as he claims his throne and saves the exotic planet of Mantasi. ORDER BRIGGEN in paperback or in Amazon's new KINDLE format. Stay tuned for the other two novels in this marvelous sci-fi/fantasy trilogy!
COMING SOON - The second book in the BRIGGEN trilogy - THE TORRENT SEED and my poetry collection, FOOTSTEPS ACROSS MY HEART.

Set in the scenic mountains and college towns of upstate New York, as well as the author s beloved South, Half-Past Nowhere, chronicles the life of boy as he passes from innocence to experience. Written in a style that evokes Hemingway and Faulkner, experience the struggles of our young hero from an abusive childhood, through the joys and pains of young love and finally, self discovery. At times humorous, this collection is filled with memorable characters and real life obstacles.If you were ever young you may find yourself here.
Bio:
Ignoring the advice of teachers from grade school to graduate school to dedicate his life to writing, Cavano chose in his own words, the road most travelled, and opted for the secure life of an English teacher in the secondary schools and colleges of the Hudson Valley in New York. Semi retired now, he has begun to write again, and in less than a year has put together this collection. Phineas Rising and Mountain Men have been selected as finalists in the prestigious Glimmer Train Short Story Contest. An inveterate traveler, Joe and his wife, Stephanie, live in Charlotte, North Carolina and continue to travel throughout Europe and Asia. In his spare time he plays jazz piano.
After spending a good part of my life teaching in the secondary schools and colleges of upstate New York,I began to renew my love affair with writing one year ago.In that brief time ,I put together the collection of related short stories, Half -Past Nowhere, and had it accepted for publication by the first and only publisher I contacted.Patterned after Hemingway's In Our Time, it also traces the growth of a young hero as he passes from "innocence to experience." Two of the included stories have already been awarded finalist status by Glimmer Train,one of the most prestigious of venues for the short story.
Over the years, I've used the freedom afforded a teacher to develop a myriad of interests.One of these,has been improvising jazz piano, a process not unlike the process a writer utilizes in creating a work of fiction.As a jazz pianist once told me about creating music(and literature!)" You're never where you are...you're always where your going.'Its a point I often demonstate at my many book signings
Having been born in "the charmed circle of the Catskill Mts.," it's not surprising that Nature figures prominently in some of my stories,although always as a backdrop for some universal law(the verities Faulkner called them).One of my latest stories,presently untitled,but slated to appear in my newest collection,"Love Songs in Minor Keys," which comes out next year,explores that relationship in detail.
A one time wine connoisseur,ginseng hunter,fly fisherman and still world traveler(India is my favorite by far) I happily reside in the South among the bones of Faulkner,Welty,Twain, Capote et al.
I have an M.A. in English from American University in Washington,D.C., and a B.A.in English from Marist College in Poughkeepsie,N.Y. I have also studied Philosophy at the graduate level at Georgetown.

Horror Author Andrew Wolter with NightFall.
The town of Spook Valley is far from the outcries of the city. Nestled in the rural deserts of Arizona, Spook Valley is a town in which neighbors congregate on their lawns, and doors remained unlocked throughout the midnight hours. However, it has reluctantly become home to an unknown force of evil, hellbent on destroying all humanity. For one man, life in the quaint town of Spook Valley is about to take a dramatic change as he commences a battle against creatures of legend and folklore. He will discover that the survival of the entire world rests solely upon his shoulders as he becomes entangled in a nightmarish web of the fantastic that consumes his every waking minute. The ultimate war between good and evil has arrived. It begins at nightfall.
Bio:
I like to be known as an author without genre boundaries. Many have referred to my fiction as homoerotic horror, due to the gay element that seems to make its way into my works. Perhaps, it is merely art imitating life. Notwithstanding, I'm not a whore like some of my characters in my first novel, The Rules of Temptation; nor am I an evil creature as depicted by the troupe of characters in my upcoming novel, Nightfall. I am a writer. Yes, I write what I know, and, perhaps, I have experienced such. However, a writer's job is to grip the audience; and one of the ways that he/she does this is by fabricating the truth and bending reality into a kaleidoscope of the fantastic. That said, I hope you all get a chance to enjoy my books.

Author Yvonne Mason with Silent Scream
Silent Scream
Port St. Lucie, FL - Oct 30, 2008 - Florida Author Yvonne Mason is pleased to announce the
release the true crime book Silent Scream. In 1972 Martin County Deputy Gerard Schaefer was
arrested for the aggravated assault of two young women by the name of Nancy Trotter and
Pamela Wells. They were the lucky ones. They got away.
On April 1,1973 the bodies of two more young women , Georgia Jessup and Susan Place were
found on South Hutchinson Island. They had disappeared from Fort Lauderdale on Sept 23,1972.
The police investigation which ensued led the authorities back to Gerard Schaefer who was by
this time serving six months for aggravated assault on Nancy Trotter and Susan Wells.
The firestorm and the evidence uncovered in the investigation led authorities to believe that Ex-
Martin County Deputy Sheriff Gerard Schaefer had killed more than just these four young
women. Evidence gathered during a search at his mother's home revealed at least nine and as
many as possibly thirty four over a span of six years beginning in 1966 and continuing until
1972.
Until this crime, Florida had never experienced anything like what is now known as serial
killings. Gerard Schaefer was considered the first perpetrator of this type of crime. Crime Scene
evidence testing, DNA testing and the ability to link similar crimes was primitive at best. Law
enforcement didn't communicate with each other and there was no way to tie these types of
crimes to one perpetrator. Gerard Schaefer was caught simply because he got sloppy.
Ms. Mason's Silent Scream gives the victims a voice - a voice which has been silent for over 30
years. Some of the young women were never found, some cases were never closed and there
were never any bodies to bury.
Gerard Schaefer took their voice away when he bound, gagged, hung, tortured, and buried their
bodies in remote areas. He killed in pairs so one could watch while the other was destroyed.
This is their story; this is their voice and with this voice comes the peace they have never had.
Retired FBI Agent Roy Hazelwood stated:
"Yvonne Mason has captured the true essence of Gerard Schaefer, a deputy sheriff who
enjoyed torturing and killing young women. It is a gripping story and you should prepare to be
disturbed. I guarantee that you will find it difficult to put this book down."
Det. Lieutenant Chuck Hemp OPPD Ret. also stated::
When Gerald Schaefer used his badge and gun to terrorize and kill rather than protect and serve
he crossed a line that not only snuffed out the lives of his victims but also affected the lives of
their loved ones and the police officers charged with investigating these crimes. In her book
"Silent Screams" Yvonne Mason has captured more than just the story, but has also given voices
to all of Schaefer's unknown victims. I'm sure there are many.
Ms. Mason, reminds us that at any time and any place we can become a victim.

THE DEVIL'S CRESCENT should be available on Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble.com and through Ingram's Distribution in a few short weeks. You can order a copy through Lulu.com or ask for the novel at your local bookstore.

Diego is a man haunted by a past filled with death and disappointment, a nobleman fleeing from the dictates of his demanding father and an arranged marriage. When a U.S. Marshall asks Diego to infiltrate a gun runner's operation, Diego reluctantly agrees, shadowing the powerful land baron, Morgan Lansing. Morgan's efforts play into the hands of a group of Mexican nationalists, who quickly claim the land vacated by the terrified settlers until only one parcel stands in the way of their march toward the border -- the one occupied by Maggie MacNaughton. Diego and Maggie match wits and wills as the danger mounts. When they are finally captured, it seems only their reliance upon each other might save them from a swift and certain death. Can a bounty hunter and a lovely cattle rancher stop a group of Mexican nationalists from retaking southern Texas? Find out in this action-packed western!
Bio:
I started writing when I was about 12 years old and have never stopped. I am the granddaughter of an award winning Ohio author and poet and already have several books published and screenplays awaiting production. I am also a veteran of the stage and was once asked to try out for the Metropolitan Opera.
I am the President of Kodron Productions, Inc. and the author and screenwriter of VORTEX OF REVELATION, a compelling novel/screenplay about the End of Days. As the ghosts of Civil War soldiers march through Gettysburg, gladiators do battle in the Coliseum in Rome and saints appear to the faithful, earthquakes rip the Earth apart while meteors streak across the solar system on a collision course with Earth. How can the human race survive the End of Days, what seems to be the end of time as we know it? Only funding stands in the way of our bringing this incredible picture to the silver screen. For now, you can purchase VORTEX OF REVELATION through Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble or Target.com. Ask for it at your favorite bookstore under A.B. Keller.
TREVOR'S LOVE, my second published novel, is a contemporary romance about the growing attraction between a handsome, but ruthless executive living in the fast lane and the temporary assistant who slowly but surely, finds a way into his heart. This story is set in Cleveland, Ohio and features many of the things I noticed in my long business career. The flashy, superficial lifestyle of the rich and famous often lacks depth and true meaning, the heart and sense of belonging to which all of us cling in those quiet moments when the tinsel-type friends depart and the only comfort we find is in the arms of those we love. You can find TREVOR'S LOVE through Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble and PublishAmerica.com. Request it by name at your local bookstore, too! You'll be glad you did.
BRIGGEN, a science fiction/fantasy was published by TRIAD Publishing Group in April, 2008. BRIGGEN is a riveting page turner that will have you perched on the edge of your seat as this brawny warrior prince rushes across the galaxy, battling aliens and assassins, dealing with an ornery wizard and a proud dragon, and finally succumbing to the charms of a beautiful sorceress as he claims his throne and saves the exotic planet of Mantasi. ORDER BRIGGEN in paperback or in Amazon's new KINDLE format. Stay tuned for the other two novels in this marvelous sci-fi/fantasy trilogy!
COMING SOON - The second book in the BRIGGEN trilogy - THE TORRENT SEED and my poetry collection, FOOTSTEPS ACROSS MY HEART.

Author C.J. West with A Demon Awaits.
I'm a small town boy, turned big city technology manager, turned novelist. I spent my early years searching for an intellectual challenge, my adult years trying to find the humanity in technology and services that replaced people and now I'm right where I should be. I have a wonderful family, a new writing partner, my puppy Bella, and I love being with my kids out here in the suburbs and writing every day (and night). Life couldn't fit any better.
CJ West writes thrillers that feel like they're written about the family next door. Although his books are action-packed, each book explores a theme of character or faith. CJ attributes this combination to a strong Christian upbringing that valued piety and industriousness, but also athletic competition, shooting sports and an ability to live off the land.
Sin and Vengeance, the first book in CJ's Randy Black series, was optioned for film by a screenwriting firm in early 2008. The screenplay, written by Marla Cukor, is complete and has drawn interest from a number of producers. A Demon Awaits, the second book in the series offers a major twist in the storyline and challenges readers to forgive Randy Black's mistakes and follow his journey in future novels.
CJ embraces social networking and keeps in touch with readers on MySpace, Goodreads and Facebook. He personally answers his messages and regularly posts updates on his work. Links to each of CJ's profiles are provided at http://www.22wb.com.
About A Demon Awaits
A Demon Awaits picks up the action from the last page of Sin and Vengeance and kicks it into a new gear. When the dust settles, Randy Black is left to question his faith and his humanity. He's turned away from his teachings and done horrific things. Now Randy is being held to account.
From the Back Cover
Randy Black wants to die...
Overcome with anger and grief after losing his parents, Randy Black plans to sacrifice himself to avenge them. He plots revenge for 10 years then destroys three families in spectacular fashion. Winemaking heir Charlie Marston takes the brunt of Randy's anger. Randy steals Charlie's dream career and burns his inheritance to the ground. When Randy's revenge is taken, his blood cools and his suicide mission takes an unexpected twist. Randy survives and doesn't know what to do next.
He clings to life...
Randy sees his future. Horrific torture lies ahead if he doesn't change course. He's given a chance to atone for his mistakes and he latches on. The solitary life of a predator glares back from his empty address book. Without friends or family, Randy is left alone to rediscover The Way. One question haunts his every step: Is he worthy of forgiveness?
But now he's the one being played...
Just as Randy befriended Charlie Marston to tear his life apart, defense attorney Tom Gold wrests control of Randy's future. Randy is consumed by his quest to redeem himself until he discovers his every move is being manipulated. Randy is ready to strike back, but the rules have changed. Sin carries weighty consequences in the afterlife and Randy is out of second chances.

Author Elizabeth Eagan Cox with A Ghost of A Chance.
Cozy Paranoramal Mystery Novel.
Elizabeth Eagan Cox has penned dozens of corporate histories for some of America's most prestigious companies, including: Ayres Hotel Group, Billabong USA, Cabo Yachts Inc., Forever 21, Matsushita Avionics and TXI Cement Mfg. Co. Elizabeth was a columnist for Old California Gazette and she is a former school librarian. She enjoys digging up intriguing stories about history and incorporating these facts in her writing. In A GHOST OF A CHANCE she used many elements of history to bring the story to life, including the study of late-nineteenth century sleight-of-hand magic, Victorian architecture, and details regarding California's founding Hispanic culture.
Elizabeth is a member of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) and the worldwide Irish Clann Mac Aodhagain.
About 'going green': This book is based on a short story I sold to a British e-zine several years ago. When I decided to use the short story as the building block for a novel I knew I would want it published by a reputable royalty-paying e-book publisher. I was delighted when www.ebooksonthe.net offered me a contract.
But why choose e-book publishing over hardprint? For me it was a logical way to have a positive Eco-friendly impact… A way of doing something good for the environment. E-book reading is not for everyone, but it is viable option that has significant results over hardprint publishing:
No trees are cut down.
No paper manufacturing with use of toxic chemicals is needed.
No energy is spent in the transporting and warehousing of books and transporting to point-of-sale bookstores.
No energy is spent in purchasing books because a person can do it from a home computer. And now, a host of manufacturers offer handheld e-book readers at a variety of prices. Eco-friendly e-books are becoming more accessible to everyone and e-books costs less than their mass-market paperback competition.
I believe life is a journey, as we travel let us take memories and leave no harmful footprints – EEC.

A GHOST of a CHANCE
Shannon Delaney's writing assignment in San Diego opens new doors for her young career.

On her first night a ghostly encounter entangles her in the spectral mission of the mansion's original owner—Eric Blackthorne, master magician.
Complicating matters is Alex Blackthorne, handsome and charming descendent of the ghostly magician. Also, there's Zach Zavala, who has guy-next-door good looks and a straightforward manner. Plus, Zach's grandfather Francisco is a retired detective and a kindred spirit who appreciates Shannon's apprehension about her paranormal experiences.
Things-that-go-bump-in-the-night clues haunt Shannon's sleep. By daylight eerie occurrences make it crystal clear what path Shannon must take. After solving the Blackthorne House mystery, Shannon is left with the biggest question of all…
What about Alex and Zach; must she choose between them?

This gripping story brings to life the Christina Nilsson, a working Lake Michigan schooner. The schooner sank in 1884 off the shore of Baileys Harbor, Wisconsin. Our story winds through historically real sites as well as a fantasy civilization, Urgin. Urgin is a 10,000 year old sunken continent. With the assistance of Aralic and Benowin, 8,000-year-old brother and sister from Urgin, will our three accidental heroes ultimately accomplish their purpose?
In the course of this tale you will be transported to 1954 Midwest as well as 1884. With the realities of anchors, bikes and masts, our story moves to floating rock boats, bubbles capable of turning solid rock into oatmeal, and a world 13 miles beneath the present earth's surface. Come and visit worlds technologically advanced; one seemingly locked in a "simpler time" and finally, one still operating with wind power.
Our 1954 reluctant heroes are chosen to save two children, Carl and Kate Jensen, from perishing when the sailing vessel sinks. If these children were to be lost in the sinking of the ship, the entire course of world history would be altered. Can they?

Sin carries weighty consequences in the afterlife and Randy is out of second chances.
Book Description
From the moment Randy Black appears in CJ West's novel, Sin and Vengeance, he is consumed with a lust for revenge. Randy is so obsessed that he plans to sacrifice himself to destroy the man who has taken his rightful place. Randy delivers retribution in spectacular fashion, but his suicide mission takes an unexpected twist. Randy survives, his blood cools, and he doesn't know what to do next.
A Demon Awaits is the second book in the Randy Black series and as the book opens Randy sees his future. Horrific torture lies ahead if he doesn't change course. He's given a chance to atone for his mistakes. He latches on and begins the difficult journey to rebuild the life that tragedy stole from him 15 years earlier, but questions haunt his every step. Is he worthy of forgiveness? Can God forgive him? Can he forgive himself?
Earthly trials impede Randy at every turn. Randy is threatened and beaten. He's repeatedly tempted to lash out and undo the spiritual progress he's made. Randy resists only to discover that he's being manipulated by Tom Gold, his own defense attorney. Finally, Randy is ready to strike back, but there are limits to what he can do. Sin carries weighty consequences in the afterlife and Randy is out of second chances.

Synop:
Imagine for a moment that you were given to see beyond sight into the spiritual realm and be given the vision of what is to come. Imagine being given the knowledge of what is to befall mankind. Visualize for a moment you are given the revealing of the inconceivable, the heightening of divination, and the materializing of what never was. From destruction to chaos, from freedom to constraint, to the Apocalypse and how to thwart it all.
Now, imagine that you were told to enlighten the world.

Author Elizabeth Eagan Cox with A Ghost of A Chance.
Cozy Paranoramal Mystery Novel.
Elizabeth Eagan Cox has penned dozens of corporate histories for some of America's most prestigious companies, including: Ayres Hotel Group, Billabong USA, Cabo Yachts Inc., Forever 21, Matsushita Avionics and TXI Cement Mfg. Co. Elizabeth was a columnist for Old California Gazette and she is a former school librarian. She enjoys digging up intriguing stories about history and incorporating these facts in her writing. In A GHOST OF A CHANCE she used many elements of history to bring the story to life, including the study of late-nineteenth century sleight-of-hand magic, Victorian architecture, and details regarding California's founding Hispanic culture.
Elizabeth is a member of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) and the worldwide Irish Clann Mac Aodhagain.
About 'going green': This book is based on a short story I sold to a British e-zine several years ago. When I decided to use the short story as the building block for a novel I knew I would want it published by a reputable royalty-paying e-book publisher. I was delighted when www.ebooksonthe.net offered me a contract.
But why choose e-book publishing over hardprint? For me it was a logical way to have a positive Eco-friendly impact… A way of doing something good for the environment. E-book reading is not for everyone, but it is viable option that has significant results over hardprint publishing:
No trees are cut down.
No paper manufacturing with use of toxic chemicals is needed.
No energy is spent in the transporting and warehousing of books and transporting to point-of-sale bookstores.
No energy is spent in purchasing books because a person can do it from a home computer. And now, a host of manufacturers offer handheld e-book readers at a variety of prices. Eco-friendly e-books are becoming more accessible to everyone and e-books costs less than their mass-market paperback competition.
I believe life is a journey, as we travel let us take memories and leave no harmful footprints – EEC.

A GHOST of a CHANCE
Shannon Delaney's writing assignment in San Diego opens new doors for her young career. She has no idea that her temporary home, the Victorian-era Blackthorne House mansion is a portal to a century-old mystery. On her first night a ghostly encounter entangles her in the spectral mission of the mansion's original owner—Eric Blackthorne, master magician.
Complicating matters is Alex Blackthorne, handsome and charming descendent of the ghostly magician. Also, there's Zach Zavala, who has guy-next-door good looks and a straightforward manner. Plus, Zach's grandfather Francisco is a retired detective and a kindred spirit who appreciates Shannon's apprehension about her paranormal experiences.
Things-that-go-bump-in-the-night clues haunt Shannon's sleep. By daylight eerie occurrences make it crystal clear what path Shannon must take. After solving the Blackthorne House mystery, Shannon is left with the biggest question of all…
What about Alex and Zach; must she choose between them?

Author Richard Kirsh with Pine Woods
Science Fiction
Richard has two grown children and resides in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He continues to daily marry Linda, his bride of 33 years. His life's journey has taken him from his hometown Sheboygan, Wisconsin to Fond du Lac, Wisconsin to Minneapolis, Minnesota, including some foreign travel before settling down in Milwaukee. Drawing from imagination and life experience, Richard writes for those who enjoy reading science fiction about real places.
Synop:
A common looking stone transports Rich, Mickie and Bill into a world wrapped in historical reality and fantasy.
This gripping story brings to life the Christina Nilsson, a working Lake Michigan schooner. The schooner sank in 1884 off the shore of Baileys Harbor, Wisconsin. Our story winds through historically real sites as well as a fantasy civilization, Urgin. Urgin is a 10,000 year old sunken continent. With the assistance of Aralic and Benowin, 8,000-year-old brother and sister from Urgin, will our three accidental heroes ultimately accomplish their purpose?
In the course of this tale you will be transported to 1954 Midwest as well as 1884. With the realities of anchors, bikes and masts, our story moves to floating rock boats, bubbles capable of turning solid rock into oatmeal, and a world 13 miles beneath the present earth's surface. Come and visit worlds technologically advanced; one seemingly locked in a "simpler time" and finally, one still operating with wind power.
Our 1954 reluctant heroes are chosen to save two children, Carl and Kate Jensen, from perishing when the sailing vessel sinks. If these children were to be lost in the sinking of the ship, the entire course of world history would be altered. Can they?
