Book Description
In my last book, I chose the Red Pill over the Blue and found myself at the bottom of the rabbit hole. Knowledge is so enticing! Knowledge is power right?! After kicking the addiction, who could have guessed the doctor would prescribe little blue Xanax pills to ease the anxiety? I knew the blue pill would present itself to me again, it was only a matter of time. Things have a way of revolving and I was in desperate need of some blissful ignorance! How did I know it would come back to me, you ask? Because that is exactly what Karma does 'it returns to you'.

Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
When you lose your parents just as you have left home for graduate school—glad to finally be away from a life and place you found stifling—how do you make your way in a world with no home to go back to? For Ann McCutchan, whose parents died in a car accident when she was twenty-three, the answer was to keep moving, away from the dream her mom and dad had so hopefully embraced in her childhood, and away from the locus of that dream, the state of Florida in the 1960s. In this coming-of-age memoir, McCutchan, a writer and musician, returns to Florida to reconcile with the life she had there. Reconnecting with old friends and long-forgotten places, she confronts the transformation of wetland real estate she knew as a child into south Florida suburbs and the booming Space Coast—a transformation her father enthusiastically if not altogether successfully promoted. She revisits the frustrations and aspirations of her youth and musical awakening, comes to a deeper understanding of the meaning of the cultural shifts she experienced in the sixties, and achieves a new appreciation of the history and aspirations of the two people who meant the most to her.

Book Description
Do you know your direction in life? Does the universe have a direction? Are you getting pulled along by it, regardless of your own personal choices? Are you making your own way? Are things going as you hoped? The meaning of existence is much more multi-dimensional than you might imagine. It's about all minds operating in concert. It's not about "I", it's about "We". It's not the You-niverse, it's the We-niverse. The biggest realization you must come to is that we are all in it together. We are indissolubly linked together. All of our fates are connected. No man is an island. The most difficult task people have is escaping from their own selfishness and narcissism. They try to create meaning based on "me, me, me" when the universe is shouting loud and clear that it's all about "we, we, we." Can you overcome the most difficult obstacle of all – yourself?!

Book Description
The Sci-Fi Detective Thriller Gets Cool...Liquid Cool! Liquid Cool Book #1 is the FIRST-IN-SERIES action-packed (and funny) sci-fi detective series. Meet a private eye with a cool hat, laser gun, and attitude. But don’t touch his red hovercar -- or you could get shot! Watch him face off neon gangsters, sinister cyborgs, corporate samurai soldiers, and laser-gun shootouts while solving his cases in the rainy supercity of Metropolis. More gritty action and dark humor than you can handle. In the debut novel author Austin Dragon shows why you never want to meet a cyborg in a dark alley. Liquid Cool is a mix of Blade Runner and the Maltese Falcon. It’s cyberpunk reimagined—an ever-rainy world of mega-skyscrapers, speeding hovercars, dangerous neon streets, and futuristic mechanization. Metropolis isn’t a bad place, but it isn’t a good one either. Governments and megacorporations fight for control of the fifty-million-plus super-city, but so does crime. It's here we meet Cruz, our private eye (and unlikely hero), in this supercity with a million victims and perpetrators. Welcome to the high-tech, low-life world of Liquid Cool.

Pages : 188
Book Description
Where's Ralphie? is a family screenplay by Dawn Greenfield Ireland. Logline: A single dad discovers his daughter’s imaginary friend is real… and he’s an invisible, highly trained dog fleeing from the government. Synopsis: Gary Smalley, a widower and inventor with two young daughters is worried about Ginger, his 6-year-old.She’s had a make-believe friend for a while and bugs Gary to get a dog because Buttercup, the cat, isn’t any fun. Clem, Ginger’s older sister, is too wrapped up in sports to pay much attention to Ginger. Diane, Gary’s best friend and secret admirer, has a government contract to train dogs for espionage. A special blue formula makes the dogs invisible. The Chief sends special agents Mr. Water and Mr. Blue, to the training facility for an update. The government guys are all agog over the Star-Warsey vault that contains the training course and the HAL 2000 Dog Monitor computer – Gary’s creations. While performing a live test downtown, Seventy-Six, a Jack Russell Terrier and Diane’s star pupil, becomes partially visible. Everyone panics: glitches are traceable. Even with the flaw, Seventy-Six completes the mission undetected. Mr. Blue tells Diane the mission is a success and for her to hand over Seventy-Six; he’s needed right away in the government’s war against terrorists. Diane is gobsmacked by this bit of news. She trained the dogs for espionage. HAL instructs Seventy-Six to run. As Gary leaves the patent office, Seventy-Six jumps in the back of his SUV and discovers Ginger’s missing doll. Seventy-Six, invisible, jumps on Ginger. She screams up a storm as she's pushed down and licked. When she discovers that he’s a real invisible dog, she’s thrilled. She names him Ralphie. Gary and Clem thinks Ginger’s new dog is make believe. Mr. Blue and Mr. Water search for Ralphie while Diane is distraught at losing her beloved dog and possibly her government contract. Gary and Clem finally realize that Ralphie is a real dog, and one of Gary’s inventions allows them to see him, if only briefly. Diane asks Gary to help her devise a plan to keep him safe from the government agents. Mr. Water and Mr. try to capture Ralphie. They break into the Smalley home at night, but he keeps alluding them. Ralphie sneaks out one night to scare the agents away; Ginger sneaks out after him. At the crack of dawn, Gary, Diane and Clem discover Ginger and Ralphie missing -- possibly kidnapped and dognapped. They set out to find and rescue them with the aid of Gary’s invention. It’s a happy ending for all. The Chief retires Ralphie and Ginger gets to keep him. Diane is awarded the full contract for her espionage program. Mr. Water shows up with a government contract for two of Gary’s inventions.

Where I Live Now
Author: Lucia Berlin
Publisher: Godine+ORM
ISBN: 1574232312
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
The New York Times–bestselling author of So Long contemplates the human condition in this short story collection for fans of Grace Paley & Alice Munro. The elusive nature of happiness is a compelling theme in Where I Live Now. The survivors in these stories—many of them society's marginal or excluded people, fighting alcohol or drug addiction, bearing emotional scars—recognize it all too well. They mourn the lost dreams of youth, the roads not taken. They suffer the damage life inflicts: the ache of loneliness, the pain of separation, the fear of death. Set mainly in Los Angeles, Lucia Berlin’s gritty working-class stories bridge the gap between the Americas—rich and poor, North and South, Anglo and Hispanic. While her style has been compared to Raymond Carver’s, and her dream- and drink-addicted characters to Richard Yates’s, her fictional territory and fatalistic humor are hers alone. Praise for Where I Live Now “Berlin’s literary model is Chekhov, but there are extra-literary models too, including the extended jazz solo, with its surges, convolutions, and asides. This is writing of a very high order.” —August Kleinzahler, London Review of Books “This remarkable collection occasionally put me in mind of Annie Proulx’s Accordion Crimes, with its sweep of American origins and places. Berlin is our Scheherazade, continually surprising her readers with a startling variety of voices, vividly drawn characters, and settings alive with sight and sound.” —Barbara Barnard, American Book Review “Berlin is marvelously successful, placing her memorable characters in gripping situations, plumbing their messed-up lives for pathos and allowing us to see deeply into their souls.” —Publishers Weekly
