Download or read book Glory written by Jona Bryant and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-04-15 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jona Bryant was born Jonathan Bryant in February of 1988. I knew he would be a king before he made his appearance. He started his ascent during a blizzard and took 24 1⁄2 hours to make his entry into a cold world laced with warm love just for him. Despite several brushes with death that began during his birth, Jona defied all odds and grew to be a tender-hearted boy who felt deeply. By age eight, he changed noticeably and began showing signs of suppressed anger. I encouraged him to keep a journal, a practice he’s continued. Jona’s writing has always been awe inspiring. His descriptive method leaves the taste of sweet nectar on your tongue and the sun’s glow blinding your eyes. His writing style is influenced by “Floetry”, who put poetry to music, and the writings of David and Solomon in the King James Version of the Bible. The name Jona resulted from a conversation with his late Aunt Tillie who encouraged him to stop running (like Jonah in the Bible) and face his destiny. With this book, Jona is finally moving toward his throne.

Lovecraft - 7 best short stories by M. R. JamesThe King in Yellow is a collection of short stories written by Robert W. Chambers and published in 1895. The stories could be categorized as early horror fiction or Victorian Gothic fiction, but the work also touches on mythology, fantasy, mystery, science fiction and romance. Lovecraft created a new brand of horror, discarding ghosts and witches and instead unleashing nightmarish fiends to whom mankind is a hapless tiny spot of dwindling sanity in a malevolent universe. 7 best short stories by H.P. Lovecraft is a selection chosen by the critic August Nemo, that reveals the mesmerizing narrative style of the visionary american writer. M. R. James redefined the ghost story by abandoning many of the formal Gothic clichés and using more realistic contemporary settings. H.P. Lovecraft was a fan, and wrote a review on his work: "...gifted with an almost diabolic power of calling horror by gentle steps from the midst of prosaic daily life." he says, also adding: "Dr. James has, it is clear, an intelligent and scientific knowledge of human nerves and feelings; and knows just how to apportion statement, imagery, and subtle suggestions in order to secure the best results with his readers." The critic Augst Nemo selected seven short stories for you to enter the gloomy world of M. R. James. This is one of many books in the series 3 Books To Know. If you liked this book, look for the other titles in the series, we are sure you will like some of the topics
