It was not long before communities were issuing Wooden Nickel 'Flats' to commemorate land-marks in their history.

Book excerpt: A dangerous desire hidden in the Woods… Josh Woods has a dark family secret. He and his brothers are mountain lion shifters with an overpowering instinct to mate with any available woman, but once mated, it’s for life. They can never risk an unwanted union, which means they can’t leave their timber estate or allow single women on the property. When their beautiful new attorney arrives, Josh assumes his attraction is purely physical since there’s no way an unattached woman would’ve been granted access. He just doesn’t understand why his reaction to her is so visceral and downright carnal. As a lawyer, Mikaela Patterson is used to eccentric requests, but her new clients’ requirement is the craziest one she’s ever heard. No single women allowed on the estate? Guess she’ll have to keep her recently broken engagement a secret. Her personal life is really none of their business anyway. But when she meets Josh, there’s instant heat. Now, she must resist the sexy man to keep up the ruse, even with him tempting her beyond all reason. What starts out as a purely professional trip turns into one of the hottest experiences of her life. But when hidden truths are exposed, Mikaela finds herself surrounded by the feral Woods brothers who want her in every way. Will Josh be able to protect her from his family without claiming her himself? After all, they’ve already lost one brother to a forbidden encounter…

Download or read book The Key written by James N. Frey and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2002-08-03 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his widely read guides How to Write a Damn Good Novel and How to Write a Damn Good Novel II: Advanced Techniques, popular novelist and fiction-writing coach James N. Frey showed tens of thousands of writers how--starting with rounded, living, breathing, dynamic characters--to structure a novel that sustains its tension and development and ends in a satisfying, dramatic climax. Now, in The Key, Frey takes his no-nonsense, "Damn Good" approach and applies it to Joseph Campbell's insights into the universal structure of myths. Myths, says Frey, are the basis of all storytelling, and their structures and motifs are just as powerful for contemporary writers as they were for Homer. Frey begins with the qualities found in mythic heros--ancient and modern--such as the hero's special talent, his or her wound, status as an "outlaw," and so on. He then demonstrates how the hero is initiated--sent on a mission, forced to learn the new rules, tested, and suffers a symbolic death and rebirth--before he or she can return home. Using dozens of classical and contemporary novels and films as models, Frey shows how these motifs and forms work their powerful magic on the reader's imagination. The Key is designed as a practical step-by-step guide for fiction writers and screen writers who want to shape their own ideas into a mythic story.

Download or read book Sheetrock Shellac written by David Owen and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2006-07-01 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world of extreme makeovers, this book is a thoughtful, adventure-filled, witty look at what the space we live in says about us, the pleasures of home renovation projects great and small, and how home renovation can change our lives. Few things define us as powerfully as the place where we live. The size and location of a house may reveal basic facts about our financial or social status, but it is the personal touches -- a paint color or a homemade desk -- that reflect our aspirations, our tastes, our secret desires. In Sheetrock & Shellac, David Owen recounts his renovation and home construction projects in small-town Connecticut -- from catching the home improvement bug while watching workmen replacing a leaky roof to his first tentative foray into DIY (successfully building an enclosure for a bathroom radiator that had "turned into a sort of low-tech factory for converting splattered urine into odor and dust"). As his skill grows, so does his confidence: replacing a broken light switch turns into wiring an entire room, making bookcases is followed by building an office. Some of the more overly imaginative projects -- for instance, an ambition to install sinks and hot and cold faucets in all the rooms of the house -- never come to fruition but are amusingly recounted for other intrepid home designers. Owen's two-hundred-year-old farmhouse provides numerous occasions for home improvement projects, and layers (literally) of fascination. Owen quickly learns the hard way when to tackle a project himself and when to turn for help. But soon he's so comfortable with the undertaking that he decides to take the big leap from renovation to building a completely new home from the ground up. In this case, Owen decides to build a weekend cabin a mere six miles away from his home. From a discourse on kitchen countertop materials to the complete history of concrete, to a near-disastrous mishap with a tree, a newly constructed roof, and an overzealous chainsaw, Owen's journey through home designing and building proves both enthrallingly educating and hilariously detailed. New Yorker writer Owen's engaging narrative, filled with a wealth of practical information, hands-on tips, and canny insights, explores the ways in which the human processes of construction and renovation leave all the parties transformed. More than a simple how-to, Sheetrock & Shellac is a why-to, a wellspring of savvy advice and encouragement for anyone who has ever contemplated changing their surroundings and changing their life.
