Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is a scary thing, we go through it with very little of an idea on what we should do. Sometimes we'll find our mind is out to get us, other times we'll be faced with situations outside of any rational explanation, and every so often we just have to sit through unsettling times of boredom and have to make out the beauty which lurks in the dullness. The stories in this book are reflections of these ideas and more, a journey within the depths of loneliness, the relentless horrors, and confusion which hide within the dark corners of our world, and of our fragile mind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book of seven short unbelievable stories entailing personal tribulations of the characters involved. The book consists of approximately ninety-seven thousand words. Each story is a thriller in its own right. This septology is filled with science fiction, unbelievable exploits, fantasy, and strange and unusual events. Story 1 concerns a woman who is falsely accused of embezzlement. Her beagle dog keeps her out of jail as they travel through time and other dimensions to avoid the law. Story 2 is about the three Americas—the United, Confederate, and African States of America. Here, there are very different histories from the traditional United States of America. It involves world wars, nuclear fallout, radiation, destroyed ozone, and near extinction of the human race. Story 3 concerns alien abductions, hybrid species of aliens and humans, and an inept law enforcement agency of local police and the FBI. What will become of the human race? Story 4 is about three people from different walks of life who are given second chances at deciding their ultimate fates in eternity. Do they heed the warnings? Story 5 is one of human metamorphosis. This main character can change his molecular structure at any time into anyone or anything. He is devoid of compassion and love. Story 6 is a writing of a woman who needs a shining white night. What she gets is an albino rhino that kills evil people. The cops are blaming the woman. Story 7 is about a worldwide blackout that lasts for ten months. It reveals how people resort to primitive ways and evil. It's a story of rape, murder, mate swapping, cannibalism, and self-preservation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My name is Evelyn B. Hill I was born in Enfi eld, NC, at the age of three years old Were my fi rst memories of doing things with my sisters and brothers; I am one of eleven children; my parents were poor and worked very hard to give us the best life they could. In the year of 1941, the army drafted my father leaving behind my mother and fi ve children. Mother started working in a relatives grocery store to help get things we needed. The fi rst time I remember wanting to write was when I went to kindergarten; my teacher was talking to the class, I remember using my homework paper to scribble what at that time I called writing. When I was 12 years old I wrote a little play that my sisters and brothers put on outside in our yard for mother, she was impressed; daddy did not have time for such things. Mother did not have much education; they married at a very young age. There was not time for going to school and being a wife and mother. My parents were farmers and I never thought that we were poor, we had everything we wanted to eat we grew vegetables, and we had fruit trees, also my father raised beef, pigs, and hens to lay eggs. We grew everything we needed except we bought fl our for bread making. On Sunday, when we had moms handmade chicken potpie what a treat I was too happy to realize I was poor. My parents gave us love enough to smother us. Now that I am at this ripe-old-age of seventy, I am a mother of six children, ten grand children, and nine great-grand children, I feel that I really want to put myself in gear and write what I have on my mind, I know that I can make some children and teenagers happy reading my books. I graduated from high school in 1955 and married the same year. My last employment was working in a corporate setting that I enjoyed very much; I came into this position at the age of fi fty years old. I retired in 2004 and was thinking about going back to school but changed my mind and decided to work with crafts. I worked at my own pace making the most beautiful fabric wreaths, which I taught myself to make one a day, and I was very happy. I still felt that something was missing in my life and I wanted to do something more fulfi lling.
