Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ashlyn Lark was a young woman driven by her quest for romance and true love. Her expectations led her down a lonely path of pain and disappointment. When tragedy struck amid the existing turmoil, her fragile heart was shattered. Through Gods power and grace, she found the strength to pick up the pieces and move on. She continued on a journey of faith as Gods love and light illuminated the way. Each step was a lesson learned and a challenge to put her trust in the Masters plan. Understand that challenges are stepping stones that can draw us closer to the heart of God. Persevere and have faith in trials and suffering. Learn to wait for Gods timing. Beware of the consequences of your own choices. There is life after the death of a child. Know that Gods presence and peace can sustain you through any circumstance. In a time when there is so much pain and woundedness in our culture, Ashlyn Lark, in her book, Paradise Seems So Far Away, has presented her life story with creativity and a perspective that points to the only answer, a loving God. Into a description of her circumstances, she weaves her own poetry and songs that express so well her heart's journey. I feel that other women who are experiencing difficult situations in their own lives, will be encouraged by Ashlyn's honest words, her creativity, but most especially her presentation of her loving Father, Who promises to "never leave you or for sake you" (Hebrews 13:5) and Who "... is our refuge and strength, a very present help in times of trouble" (Psalm 46:1). What could be more uplifting and comforting to know that our God is in control of our lives, even in the darkest times! Rosemary Barnes, author and speaker

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is complicated and unpredictable, I have Aspergers and MS, but I refuse to believe I was born just to live a while then die. I am not the result of a Big Bang, nor did I come from a monkey. I believe, God, created the universe and everything in it, then he created Adam and Eve who were fruitful and multiplied until, well here I am. My new book of poems is the result of my reading and studying the Bible and my personal opinions of human life based on how humans act you dont have to agree with me, you have freewill just like me. Deeply Odd, Assuredly Strange Guess imbecile suits me fine. I am deeply odd, assuredly strange. Rebellion not, surrendered and muted of course. Hey listen up, what do you want from an autistic poet with MS? Thats not enough? Well kiss my grits. Bye, I hate grits. Ok so I save a few lives, not. Eat Jello, Eggos and applesauce, Woo woo breakfast is served. Im still deeply odd, assuredly strange. Strange. See Joy See Joy walk, see joy fall, see Joy blow her whistle. See help come. See ching, ching, Nothing is faster than the speed of light except money and it comes and goes so fast, you never really see it but you know its there by the stack of bill on the coffee table.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a tale that spans the beginning of time till the end of days-and beyond... Imagine for a second if Milton and Dante collaborated, and everything from "Paradise Lost" to the final battle between God and Lucifer was encompassed within that text, along with all that is implied between the heights of redemption and the circles of Hell. It is a pictograph of human nature; where we came from, how we got here, and most importantly-why we are here. I am known as keeper of the stories of time, and have much to share with thee... Due to the fact that I am not a prevalent character in this tale-I have chosen to remain unknown. I am only the narrator of this story-and although I may show up from time to time within said compilation of this tale, I prefer to remain a mysterious stranger to this universe. It all begins in a time of the Christ; when a secret pact was made between Judas and Jesus forming a tidal wave of emotion and thunder during a climatic 'behind the scenes' knowledge of Lucifer's deception from God... How a new god was forged by the two who set the stage for an answer to end the war between Light and Darkness... His name is Mӧbius Kain, (the god of truth) and when this tale concludes an empire of balance must be forged to order the chaos that coexists within our world.

Book excerpt: Elegant, brutal, and profound—this magnificent debut captures the grit and glory of modern Hawai'i with breathtaking force and accuracy. In a stunning collection that announces the arrival of an incredible talent, Kristiana Kahakauwila travels the islands of Hawai'i, making the fabled place her own. Exploring the deep tensions between local and tourist, tradition and expectation, façade and authentic self, This Is Paradise provides an unforgettable portrait of life as it’s truly being lived on Maui, Oahu, Kaua'i and the Big Island. In the gut-punch of “Wanle,” a beautiful and tough young woman wants nothing more than to follow in her father’s footsteps as a legendary cockfighter. With striking versatility, the title story employs a chorus of voices—the women of Waikiki—to tell the tale of a young tourist drawn to the darker side of the city’s nightlife. “The Old Paniolo Way” limns the difficult nature of legacy and inheritance when a patriarch tries to settle the affairs of his farm before his death. Exquisitely written and bursting with sharply observed detail, Kahakauwila’s stories remind us of the powerful desire to belong, to put down roots, and to have a place to call home.

Book excerpt: Forget-me-nots are delicate blue cluster spring flowers used as a symbol of remembrance, true love and devotion. It is said that according to a Greek myth, Zeus thought he had given all the plants are name, whereupon a small blue flower shouted “forget-me-not!”. The name comes from the Ancient Greek μυοσωτίς "mouse's ear", which the foliage is thought to resemble. In the Northern Hemisphere, they are colloquially known as forget-me-nots or scorpion grasses. In this poetry book, The concept was to create a number of poems that are centered around stories of love and loss. The poems are somewhat melancholic, and reflects the state of heartbreak and the excruciating pain of being in love. There are over 150 Illustrations, text art and collage photographs included in this book which are scattered sparingly throughout its pages. A cohesive theme was designed in this poetry book in hopes of creating a body of work that really tries to embody the state of one's heart and soul when in deep connection with others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book points out how the world with all its increased knowledge and technology has separated us from our connection to God and nature. We were built to be connected to God inside and around us. How is it that the world around us with all its sophistication cannot answer the question as to why there is so much chaos and disorder in our world? Knowledge and technology have interrupted our relationship to our Lord, leading us to build and live in a world without God. The characters within this story come from different backgrounds and walks of life. They have all been through strenuously trying experiences and at the same time are being drawn together in one place for an answer to their yearnings. Curiosity along with grief and loss set them all on their own journey that will eventually lead to the same place. To ignore our nature and origin in God leads to insanity. Therefore, where there is God there is order.
