Download or read book Poems Prose and Other Lies written by Peter Whittlesey and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013-09-16 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Whittleseys first inspiration for writing and storytelling arose from reading when he was a boy, particularly Mark Twain and Will James. A few years later, when he was studying history at Westminster College, Whittlesey encountered the literary spirits of Jack Kerouac and J. D. Salinger in the stacks of McGill Library. Since then, he has been hauntingly guided by Kerouac and often wonders what treasures reside in J. D.s bunker files. Even so, it wasnt until many years later that Whittlesey really found his own way in writing upon his discovery of Dr. Gabriele Ricos Writing the Natural Way. Her techniques for engaging the whole mind in the creative process proved to be invaluable. With that knowledge, he has created Poems, Prose, and Other Lies. These verses and narratives explore the challenges of letting go, of becoming Somebody Someday, and other subjects that arise from the ups and downs of everyday life. Whittlesey also spins personal tales in his prose from the story of The Little Black Cat to the tale of The Wood Boy: The Legend of Mount Misery, that draw us into their worlds. In this debut collection, Whittlesey presents a whole that is as much the journey of a writer learning his craft as it is a refl ection of life in the wilderness that is our world today.

Download or read book Three One Act Plays written by Peter Routis and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-09-24 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the Prince of Darkness decides to destroy Job, the curtain on his life and that of his family will be drawn. Although a loyal servant to God, Job finds peace with himself and his God after his destruction, where he finally finds his place in heaven. The Tragedy of Job captivates the audience with the brilliant, elegant, and compelling dialogues and soliloquies, which bring to life this biblical tragedy. Eli, a Jewish high priest, one of the last Israelite judges before the rule of kings, lived his life serving God at the tabernacle in Shiloh. He took under his wings Samuel, who succeeded him as the last Israelite judge. His end comes at the age of ninety-eight, when he learnt, blind now, that his sons were killed by the Philistines, the Ark of the Covent was captured, and his daughter-in-law dies while giving birth to a son. With captivating dialogues and soliloquies, the drama of Eli underlines one of the most heartbreaking tragedies of the biblical era. When the earth is destroyed due to climate change, there are two lonely souls who meet at the side of a mountain, trying to make sense out of this. The Old Man who has spent his life searching for the truth, desperation takes over him: "Someone said that darkness hides...the truth. And someone else said that...darkness is everywhere." But there is hope as long as the sun rises every morning and the stars shine above the ruins of civilization. But hope always comes after hopeless moments: "I thought you mocked me the other night. I thought you would never appear again. But there you are. Is that a hope? It can't be. But again...what kind of a hope...when everything is...hopeless." For Johanna and Theodore who deserve better. "I know that each one of us travels to love alone, alone to faith and to death. I know it. I've tried it. It doesn't help. Let me come with you". Giannis Ritsos, 20th century Poet

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome, Emissary. As Benjamin Sisko picked his way over the wreckage that was his new command, a thousand questions, countless problems, dire reports, and the soon-to-be-familiar harangue of the Bajoran Liaison Officer clamored for his attention. From the shadows, a monk stepped out and greeted him. With all that had happened, it is no small wonder that Sisko took that greeting and relegated it to the back of his mind. Six years have passed. Despite the recent retaking of Deep Space 9™, it seems that the Federation is losing the Dominion war. As commander of a front-line post, Sisko focuses on the war effort, paying little attention to the latest rumor. "The fabled lost Orbs of the Prophets have been recovered. Legend holds that these orbs are the key to unlocking a second wormhole -- a second Celestial Temple." In war, sometimes the little things you don't notice are your undoing. Now Benjamin Sisko, a man of science and a Starfleet officer -- and also the Emissary -- is swept up in the ultimate war of good versus evil. Every decision he makes draws him, his family, and his crew into the abyss. Faced with the possibility that he alone must decide the fate of life in the galaxy, Captain Sisko must unlock the truth behind the fabled Orbs of the Prophets or the future, the past, and even the present will wink out of existence!
