Book excerpt: We Do The Damndest Things is a sequel to Gap's first book, We Married Adventure. It is a true story of an American Italian man going West with his young wife, starting a family in the wilds of Jackson's Hole over 40 years ago. Gap, Peggy and their girls lived off the land in the high mountains of the Gros Ventre Wilderness. Leaving all the comforts of modern day America, they faced all challenges and adversities that Mother Nature threw at them. There was no running water, electricity, phone or television. Their best friend was "God," and each other, the wild animals that roamed outside their door, their herd of "Morgan horses, " and old-time Jackson's Hole cowboys. That lifestyle and almost all of the old cowboys are now gone--but what a time they had! We Do the Damndest Things is a wonderful American adventure story of a family living a way of life that most people can only dream about.

Book excerpt: ORIGINAL MASS MARKET. STORIES OF THINGS FROM SPACE. Mostly very, very bad things that want to harm humans and destroy Earth. Or take it for their own. Original stories and reprints of classics from the scary side of science fiction! THE THINGS ARE COMING . . . As we all know, in space, no one can hear you scream. Which doesn’t mean that anyone is safe just because they’re standing on the soil of planet Earth, because if a thing from out there drops in, screaming probably won’t save you. Earth has spawned myriad unpleasant life forms which are bad news for humans, ranging in size from the Ebola virus to the great white shark up to the Tyrannosaurus Rex (extinct, fortunately for us)—and that’s just one planet. What even more deadly life forms might the billions of planets in our galaxy have spawned? And suppose the things are intelligent and capable of crossing space and coming here . . . Considering that very possibility are the masters of science fiction starring in this book, including Robert Silverberg, David Drake, Sarah A. Hoyt, James H. Schmitz, Fritz Leiber, Robert Sheckley, Murray Leinster and John W. Campbell, as well as classic stories of extraterrestrial horrors by H.P. Lovecraft, George Allan England and more. E.T. might have been happy eating Reese’s Pieces, but other visitors from the void might have less dainty appetites. And there are probably worse things than merely being eaten . . . At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management). Praise for previous anthologies edited by Hank Davis: In Space No One Can Hear You Scream “. . . the 13 tales in this collection blend SF with horror to demonstrate the resiliency of both genres. . . . offers strong tales by the genre’s best storytellers.”—Library Journal “. . . first-rate science fiction, demonstrating how short stories can still entertain.”—Galveston County Daily News A Cosmic Christmas 2 You: “This creative and sprightly Christmas science fiction anthology spins in some surprising directions. . . . A satisfying read for cold winter evenings . . . a great stocking stuffer for SF fans.”—Publishers Weekly As Time Goes By: “As Time Goes By . . . does an excellent job of exploring not only romance through time travel—relationships enabled or imperiled by voyaging through time—but the intrinsic romance of time travel itself. . . . The range of styles and approaches is as wide as the authors' sensibilities and periods might suggest . . . full of entertaining and poignant stories . . .”—Alvaro Zinos-Amaro, IntergalacticMedicineShow.com

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charisma encompasses power, popularity, and influence. Yet behind the curtain, complexity, chaos, and insecurity lurk. Examining the lives of charismatic personalities in a variety of fields (religion, entertainment, business, sects, etc) a picture emerges of distorted, unfulfilled souls yearning for the limelight by an inescapable force they cannot understand yet which fuels their very existence. The Age of Charisma: Understanding the Charismatic Personality examines personalities from their earliest upbringings to their often tragic end, examining the similarities that brings the charismatic to the glowing stage of fame that only temporarily assuages wounds from unhappy childhoods. The charismatic personality has always been part of human history, but they shine brighter today thanks in part to our media-dominated landscape and the growing reliance on visual rather than written communication. Ours is a golden time for such enigmatic personalities; their social influence and idolatry have never been greater. This book is written for scholars, instructors and researchers broadly interested in charisma as a social phenomenon and as the product of an expansive reality dominated by screens.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this candid story, this author asks one of life’s essential questions: How do we go on when our hearts are broken? Book One of Determined to Get a Life tells the story of Ken and his wife Lesley, her journey through dementia and eventual death, and Ken’s journey as her husband and caregiver. In Book Two, Ken confronts his grief and the tangle of questions he’s left with after Lesley’s death. With the knowledge that many elderly, bereaved spouses give up on life after the loss of their loved one, Ken is determined to find a way to go on. His path forward emerges as he regularly visits Spirit Island Park, a place he used to enjoy with Lesley. There, he engages with nature and people and rediscovers his will to live. Included in Book Two is a rich collection of short stories—some written by Lesley, some by Ken, and some by Ken and Lesley together—introducing a colourful cast of characters and exploring topics such as loneliness, illness, addiction, and spirituality. At its core, Determined to Get a Life is a message of hope to anyone suffering darkness and despair in dementia’s wake. With lucidity and strength of character, Ken sets out to prove that it’s possible to connect once more with the beautiful world, to find peace, and live a purposeful life.
