Book excerpt: A mysterious group of killers-the Wolves-terrorize the nation. No one knows where they came from or why they murder thousands of innocent civilians. Resi Kepler is a nurse who cares for those injured in the attacks. The Wolves left her without parents, famously taking them as their first victims. When Resi is knocked out during an attack, she discovers a startling ability. She sees the memories of dead Wolf victims in her sleep. Which is insane. And a little awkward considering the number of people dropping dead around her lately. She taps into her favorite defense mechanism: avoidance. She ignores it; acts like it's not happening. If she doesn't acknowledge it, it can't be real. Right? But another person she loves is taken. So, Resi accepts the insanity and dives into the memories of the dead to find the Wolves, save her friend, and avenge her parents. As Resi gets closer to uncovering the mysteries surrounding the Wolves, however, she finds herself undeniably connected to them. She begins to wonder if the killing sprees are really all that bad. In fact, if she stops the terrorists, she thinks more people may die. Is Resi being brainwashed? Are the killings justified? Will she find out why she has this creepy gift? Is she really the one endangering the nation by attempting to disarm the Wolves? ***A new thriller/suspense novel. This action-packed book is simultaneously dark and disturbing, yet fun and comedic. It is sure to keep you glued to every last page!*** ***Editorial Review*** "The Afterthoughts is a truly one of a kind supernatural thriller. Resi Kepler is shocked and outraged by the violence of a domestic terrorist group known as The Wolves. Their violence seems to know no limits as they target men, women, children, and most noteworthy - the hospital. In the midst of violence, something else is happening... One night, Resi has a peculiar dream, as if she is watching first-person memories. The dreams become a startling reality when Resi realizes that the person whose memories she was seeing is dead. "A gripping page-turner, The Afterthoughts will keep you wanting more. Author Rene Fenner skillfully crafts action, suspense, and raw emotion with each word. Vivid characters and exceptional dialogue will envelope you in the story and send your imagination running wild. Rene Fenner is a master of storytelling. You have never read a book like The Afterthoughts and never will again!" - The Lost Chapter Book Review

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the middle of nowhere, amidst the endless blackness of a forever night, there is a train. Ordinarily it speeds along in the empty darkness. As much as a train can speed along, when it has no track to speed upon and no landscape to speed through. Motion, like time, reason and destination, is an affectation here. An unnamed narrator wakes suddenly to find himself in the compartment of a train he cannot remember boarding. His fellow passengers are both strange and familiar. Together, they must work out the truth of their situation. Are they memories of long, forgotten souls, or something else? And what links them through the mists of time. They are the afterthoughts, trapped in their past, searching for a future.

Book excerpt: After Charlotte Mason died in 1923, the PNEU held a memorial service in her honor, though (quite appropriately) it more resembled an educational conference. Dozens of friends, acquaintances, admirers, students and fellow educators attended the event. Those who had spent years observing her life and work warmly described her impact on their own lives and careers. These sentiments-some philosophical, some personal-were recorded in the book you are now holding.In Memoriam is biography, memoir and philosophical commentary all in one. It offers the most intimate look at Charlotte Mason from those who knew and loved her best. As you read their touching words, you will come to appreciate the tremendous impact of this gifted woman whose philosophy and method of self-education transformed generations of teachers, parents and students-not only in her life but in her death, as well.

Book excerpt: Originally published in 1905, this book argues that the educational outlook was rather misty and depressing both at home and abroad. That science should be a staple of education, that the teaching of Latin, of modern languages, of mathematics, must be reformed, that nature and handicrafts should be pressed into service for the training of the eye and hand, that boys and girls must learn to write English and therefore must know something of history and literature; and, on the other hand, that education must be made more technical and utilitarian - these, and such as these, are the cries of expedience with which we take the field. But we have no unifying principle, no definte aim; in fact, no philosophy of education.

Book excerpt: USA TODAY BESTSELLING BOOK! Mike Majlak was a seventeen-year-old from a loving, middle-class family in Milford, Connecticut, when he got caught up in the opioid epidemic that swept the nation. For close to a decade thereafter, his life was a wasteland of darkness and despair. While his peers were graduating from college, buying homes, getting married, having kids, and leading normal lives, Mike was snorting OxyContin, climbing out of cars at gunpoint, and burying his childhood friends. Unable to escape the noose of addiction, he eventually lost the trust and support of everyone who had ever loved him. Alone, with nothing but drugs to keep him company, darkness closed in, and the light inside him--the last flicker of hope--began to dim. His dreams, potential, and future were all being devoured by a relentless addiction too powerful to fight. Despair filled him as he realized he wasn't going to survive. Somehow, he did... HE NOT ONLY SURVIVED, HE THRIVED. Now he's a social media personality with millions of followers, and an entrepreneur, marketer, podcaster, YouTuber, and author who hopes to use his voice to shine a light for those whose own lights have grown dim. This is his story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a book I would readily recommend to any performer, teacher, student, or lover of the piano," says pianist and composer John Musto. Pianist and professor Lisa Yui writes, "Donald Isler's collection of articles and interviews are delightful! They are written in the charming and breezy style of Huneker, Loesser, and Hough (three of the most esteemed writers on the piano and pianists), but underneath lies a depth of knowledge and experience. The interviews are informative and observant, the articles witty and self-reflective. Each is fascinating, informative, enlightening-in short, a wonderful read!" According to Jerome Lowenthal, professor at the Juilliard School and one of the most renowned pianists of his generation, "If there was a golden age of pianophilia, it is nobly continued today by pianist-journalists like Donald Isler." Author Donald Isler reflects on more than fifty years' experience teaching, attending concerts, and living a professional life dedicated to music. Though the responsibilities of being a true artist or a good teacher are taken seriously, there are also many lighthearted and amusing stories. The thirty-five essays that comprise Part I of the book include provocative titles, such as "Up from Mediocrity," "In Praise of Rule Breakers," "Do I Keep an Open Mind," plus articles about great musicians Isler heard, knew personally, or studied with. The thirty-one interviews that make up Part II followed in-depth conversations with each subject. They reveal much about the lives and careers of great artists of the older generation, such as Gary Graffman and Ruth Slenczynska, several child prodigies and many distinguished musicians in-between, as well as two acclaimed radio personalities, one impresario who has devoted her life to developing the careers of many important musicians-and Dr. Ruth Westheimer, the sex therapist, who speaks about the music in her life!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formation of Character is the fifth volume of Charlotte Mason's Homeschooling series. The chapters stand alone and are valuable to parents of children of all ages. Part I includes case studies of children (and adults) who cured themselves of bad habits. Part II is a series of reflections on subjects including both schooling and vacations (or "stay-cations" as we now call them). Part III covers various aspects of home schooling, with a special section detailing the things that Charlotte Mason thought were important to teach to girls in particular. Part IV consists of examples of how education affected outcome of character in famous writers of her day. Charlotte Mason was a late nineteenth-century British educator whose ideas were far ahead of her time. She believed that children are born persons worthy of respect, rather than blank slates, and that it was better to feed their growing minds with living literature and vital ideas and knowledge, rather than dry facts and knowledge filtered and pre-digested by the teacher. Her method of education, still used by some private schools and many homeschooling families, is gentle and flexible, especially with younger children, and includes first-hand exposure to great and noble ideas through books in each school subject, conveying wonder and arousing curiosity, and through reflection upon great art, music, and poetry; nature observation as the primary means of early science teaching; use of manipulatives and real-life application to understand mathematical concepts and learning to reason, rather than rote memorization and working endless sums; and an emphasis on character and on cultivating and maintaining good personal habits. Schooling is teacher-directed, not child-led, but school time should be short enough to allow students free time to play and to pursue their own worthy interests such as handicrafts. Traditional Charlotte Mason schooling is firmly based on Christianity, although the method is also used successfully by s

Book excerpt: JUDGEMENTAL AFTERTHOUGHTS concludes a loose trilogy of volumes of aphoristic philosophy beginning and continuing with 'Revelationary Afterthoughts' and 'Revolutionary Afterthoughts', and the 'afterthoughts' here, subsequent to the impressive 'Free Testament of a Bound Genius', have been subtitled 'As Testamentary Evidence of a Free Genius', a genius who is not above investigating common slang and verb/noun expletives from a standpoint that, adhering to a broader framework, is able to pinpoint and categorize them with a view not only to exposing the class or gender limitations of their reductionist usage but, hopefully, to undermining the mindless alacrity with which certain persons so utilize them.
