Book Description
Emerging as the dark side of Romanticism, horror is one of literature’s oldest genres. Its history is so diverse it’s sometimes difficult to define. Are moody stories about ghosts and vampires related to gory tales of beasts and zombies? And what about the more realistic terrors of murderous rogues and diabolical doctors? The emotion of fear unifies the 14 stories in First Came Fear: New Tales of Horror. But fear is legion in its varieties. The authors skillfully navigate terror of all types. M.P. Diederich’s “Dressage for Beginners” and Christopher Calix’s “The Wedding Gift” are fine examples of the ghoulish humor tradition while J.P. Whitmer’s “Loved to Death” will frighten you in a stunningly visceral way. Oliver Ledesma’s “Atabey” and Samantha Pilecki’s “Roser and the Guide to the Inexplicable” impart fear through non-traditional storytelling and Sarah K. Stephens’ “The Factory” shows how effectively, and chillingly, horror can tackle social issues. All the stories are accompanied by Luke Spooner’s dramatic art, which combines Gothic macabre with echoes of classic horror illustration. The entire collection will have you gripping the edge of your seat or biting your fingernails, yet leave you longing for more!

Book Description
More, Bits & Pieces of a Biologist's Journey is exactly that. It is small vignettes of important events that impacted my life and helped me discover the beyond. There is so much more. This book has allowed me to be able to express more of who "I am,” far more than when I began 78 years ago. Life has been most challenging at times but I have been able to move forward not always with grace and ease, but moving forward and learning from the rough patches. Learning more of who “I am” and merging my experiences with my science background gave me a greater understanding within myself. Life on this planet, in this galaxy, in this universe is unbelievable, magical, mysterious and stretches the imagination especially in light of how humanity has been programmed to believe currently and in the past. I have been challenged, felt the stress, the anxiety, the panic and discovered ways to improve those “feelings” shifting them to greater levels of peace. The uncomfortable, I call “inertia busters” as they propelled me to seek solutions. Who likes to feel bad? One of the doors I walked through was a Center for Spiritual Living, I had never considered I was on a spiritual path, it was most impactful. I was able to reevaluate and shift my consciousness into a more favorable place using spiritual tools. Tools like the importance of words, the power of beliefs, writing affirmations, the power of intention, meditation, mindfulness, breath work, the importance of sound in healing and the law of attraction. Things aren’t always as they seem, there is more, far more than we can see with our eyes. We need to be silent, learn to listen and “Be still and know that I am God.”
