Book Description
I started writing this fictional tale in late December of 2011. Shortly thereafter I bailed on it being I was working on another project. Then I resumed and finally finished the damn thing on May 11, 2012. Our novelette here consists of the private journal of George Martin “Marty” Cook, known as Marty to those who knew him. Thematic throughout this piece details Marty’s involvement in a relationship with a beautiful but married woman, Jerilynn Ann Lee. And the instant lovely Jerilynn breathed the life of her love into his wounded heart, well, that was it, Marty was stuck!
It is bad enough being bound in a relationship, but when it’s a relationship uniting a single person with one already married, oh, do the complexities expand drastically! Chief among these are the tensions of guilt feelings verses the life-enhancing joys found in the object of that love, in our story Jerilynn. And this is what Marty would have to balance and contend with till the end.
The nature of this short work required that I write it in the first person. I didn’t particularly like at all doing it that way. But what can I say? It is what it is.

Stalking is among the most ancient, common, and widely-discussed of all anti-social behaviors, yet this dangerous behavior is underappreciated as a serious problem. Anyone can be a stalker, and anyone can be a stalking victim—especially today with so much personal information readily available online. Prosecutor Rhonda B.

She has prosecuted on behalf of celebrities, including Madonna, Steven Spielberg, and Gwyneth Paltrow, as well as countless ordinary individuals chose, for whatever reason, as prey. Now Saunders shares the pivotal stories from her career, how she developed the legal weapons to fight stalking, and offers powerful insight into the minds and habits of stalkers, as well as how anyone can protect against them. “[A] fascinating and authoritative inside look at the legal and psychological aspects of this frightening phenomenon.”—New York Times bestselling author Vincent Bugliosi “Saunders . . . engrossingly explores the menacing crime of stalking . . .

Book Description
Penny Lazarus has spent her entire life wishing she could escape from the real world. Through it all, she had exactly one friend - her sister, Dana - and now Dana's dead, drowned in the distant Pacific under mysterious circumstances. But she left something behind, meant only for her sister's eyes: a surreal teen-road-trip screenplay, BACK ROADS TO VEGAS. Penny sets out into the wilds of West Virginia to make her sister's movie...and winds up taking an unplanned detour, straight off I-64 and into a madcap alternate America. Here, in the hidden country known as the Back Roads, every individual's deepest desire emerges as a powerful supernatural ability. In Penny's case, that means she's a Veil, capable of turning herself invisible, intangible, ghost-like. Stranger yet, this is a place Dana somehow knew about. That bizarro screenplay? A veiled code, Penny soon realizes, embedded with clues leading deeper into the unknown. The only problem is that nearly everything in the Back Country is trying to kill her and/or drag her soul away to netherworldly depths. Like the man-eating mosquitoes. And the gangs of slave-trading cyborg bikers, and the soul-devouring tree haunted by its long-dead victims, and the snake-handling zealot who's mesmerized his flock into following him to the depths of Hell. Also, Death himself, who turns out to be kind of a jerk in real life. She's got help, too, for whatever it's worth: a fierce mountain-woman werewolf and a guitar-slinging thief who slowly but surely ensnares Penny's heart, entirely against her better instincts. What she hoped to find was the truth behind her sister's fate. But what awaits her at the end of the road is something even bigger - the dark secret of her own world-shattering destiny. BACK ROADS KINGDOM is the first volume in a thrilling new American fantasy saga that weaves together Appalachian folktales, urban legends and paranormal lore into a dark and bizarrely comic coal punk epic.
