Review for the Poem “Otters”

Thank. You for sharing this lovely poem I love Nature BERN

Review for the book Gaia’s Beings: Poems Inspired by Nature


I read these during my lunch time. What a pleasure it was to read them. I'm not overly fond of nature poems, but there a many little gems here. I have about 10 favorites, but I think "Field Mouse" is my number one pick. Also really liked "Daffodil", "Seasons", "The Breeze of Spring", "Lady River", "Spider Web", "A Speck of Dirt", and "Penguin".
All of them made me want to go outside and take a closer look at nature and appreciate all the beauty around me. Very inspiring! I also love how you manage to say so much in so few words.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FFGD2NQ

Following his divorce, Dennis Avery suffers a breakdown and finds himself on a downward spiral of despair. He is targeted by two strangers he meets in a bar, and his life takes a dramatic turn. Recruited, he finds himself plunged into an exotic world of pick-up artists, internet dating, seduction, short-term relationships and casual sex.

Using controversial techniques, Dennis sets out to regain his confidence and to improve his skills with women, but at what cost? Can his life really be changed so easily? Who are his new mentors? What are they really after?

Frequently outrageous, sometimes funny and often naughty - loosely based on a true story - The Knowledge will take you on an incredible and unexpected journey.

This book is intended for readers aged 18+ please. Amazon reviews welcome and appreciated!

Quiet Post, my first new novel in 4 years, is now complete in next-to-final draft. It's a surreal SFF comedy. A sample (prolog and 1st 2 chapters) is currently available on my blog, The Ingesterie. All comments welcome. Pleasant reading!

"Bipolar God: Understanding God's Link to Mental Illness" is on sale on Amazon for 3.99! (Philosophy/Psychology)

Are you diagnosed with a mental disorder and curious as to how a part of God could possibly be in you? Have you ever wondered as to why God can show so much love one instant then so much wrath the next? Or are you just curious with what in the world God has to do with mental illness?

This book provides evidence for a philosophical understanding of God's link to mental disorders such as bipolar disorder and schizophrenia along with other related mental afflictions. This evidence is provided through different relationships God establishes with people throughout the Bible along with some of the decisions that He makes.

This different outlook on the psyche of God not only gives a glimpse into the world of individuals living with mental illness but also of an omniscient being who's consciousness we very likely misunderstand.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JO7BA6S

"One of the things that philosophy and mental illness have in common is that both are open for interpretation. There are no definitive standards to which a certain mental affliction, or distinct way of thinking that are considered undeniable truths. The facts lie completely within the eye of the beholder, whether it be a psychiatrist or a philosopher.

Yet, it is these subjects that are among the most debated in recorded history. Wars have been fought over beliefs that have left millions dead over time. A murderer can stay out of jail or avoid the death penalty by having an individual with a certain educational background declare you mentally ill. Each day these facets of life that are determined by “studied professionals” are left to figures in authority to wield around as truths, governing our routines and our states of mind.

Knowing this, it only seemed logical for me to combine the two. It may make me seem confrontational. I don’t believe that to be the case. Though it wouldn’t make it the first time I was wrong.

I have come to the conclusion that life revolves around criticism. Whether we like to admit it or not, other people’s thoughts and ideas make up the core of who we are. Even those who choose not to “conform” to society’s way of thinking have chosen that path due to different criticisms they have received throughout their lives, drawing meaning from these experiences and interactions with the world around them. It doesn’t matter how big or small these criticisms and experiences are, or even if we can consciously recognize them.

That’s the “fact” that my philosophy revolves around."

Dark Genesis

Life for a female slave is one of hardship and unspeakable sorrow, something Luna knows only too well. But not even she could have foreseen the terror that would befall her one sultry Mississippi evening in the summer of 1807.

On her way back from a visit to see the African woman, a witch who has the herbs Luna needs to rid her of her abusive master’s child, she attracts the attention of a deadly being that lusts for blood. Forcibly removed from everything she knows by this tormented otherworldly creature, she is sure she will be dead by sunrise.

Dark Genesis is a love story set against the savage world of slavery in which a young woman who has been dehumanised by its horrors finds the courage to love, and in doing so, reclaims her humanity.

Free download today and tomorrow. My new inspirational romance entitled Joy Cometh in the Morning by Christine Schrader is available for a free download on May 10-11.

Fresh out of Graduate School, Carly Anderson was ready to make her mark on the world. Suddenly her mother died and she had to immediately get a job so that she could support her baby brother Nathaniel. Though her scholastic achievements were excellent, she lacked practical experience which is crucial in the real world.

Against his better judgment and office policy, Brent Lockhart decided to take a chance on her knowledge, albeit her inexperience. He did not want to admit the attraction he felt when he first saw her. She was young, beautiful, smart, and innocent.

Life was just starting to clique for Carly when she started to receive frightening phone calls. The voice was distorted and mechanical sounding. “I will call, and you will come running,” the eerie voice insisted. Carly tried to ignore the prank calls until the day the voice on the telephone convinced her that he had her baby brother. She had to go running and she had to go alone.

Hi everyone,

my very recently published NA romance with a mystery, TRIGGER, is FREE today and tomorrow (May 20/21):

Sparks fly when struggling actress Nina Tyler meets hot lawyer Dylan Whitman. The chemistry between them is so intense Nina even rethinks her staunch position on relationships. Maybe they’re not a waste of time after all. But there’s something about Dylan that scares her—and she knows it has nothing to do with fear of getting close to a man, like her best friend thinks. It’s something far worse.

Preppy Dylan has had his heart broken and his uncle challenges him to move on by going on five online dates. Dylan ends up on a date with Nina. While her unabashed attitude unsettles him at first, he soon realizes that he really likes her. But as they get closer, she pulls back. It’s as if she's convinced he’d physically hurt her, which he’d never do. Still, if he doesn't figure out what's triggering her fear, she'll never be his. Little does he know her fear is directly tied to him.

Average rating: 4.5 stars. View book and download link http://www.amazon.com/Trigger-Julia-...a+derek+kindle
