    Myse Delione was an adopted child who, when she was 10 years of age, began to share her thoughts with her adopted mother. “When I grow up, I will live in a big house with nice things, wear nice clothes and be a model for the world,” she would say to her mother every morning on her way to school. “Well you can’t, so forget about it,” her mother would respond, “and don’t ever let me hear you say that again.” “OK mama. I won’t,” Myse always replied.Barefooted and with just one pencil and a note book, Myse entered the school house every day, ashamed to look at her friends. “Where are your shoes Myse, did your mother cook them for dinner last night?” And they would laugh loudly as Myse tearfully walked into her class room. Under her breath and amidst her tears, she would mumble, “I will live in a big house, wear nice clothes, and walk in shoes no one else will be able to wear.” Myse tells her story of how, in spite of all the opposition and traumatic experiences she faced, she never allowed those thoughts to ruin her dream. ungekürzt.

    It sounds daunting: all those '-isms', long technical words, weird French thinkers, and incomprehensible Germans. You can't read a book nowadays, it seems, without being required to refer to them. From university students to the average intelligent reader, everyone is expected to justify their 'theoretical perspective'. The problem is that defining what you mean by 'theory', let alone what you mean by 'literary', causes most people, including the theorists themselves, to mumble incoherently and shuffle their feet. And it is not as though there were just one coherent body of theory to master: there are Formalist, Structuralist, Marxist, and Psychoanalytical theories; Post-structuralist, Post-colonialist, and Postmodernist theories; not to mention Feminist and Queer theories, and even Anti-Theories! Most books providing introductions to "Literary Theory" are long-winded tomes, guiding dogged readers through the twists and turns of critical analysis and logic. This small volume goes to the heart of the key concepts of literary theory, explaining them in clear, everyday language.It provides witty and memorable comments and quotations, and enables the student of literature to raise the most pertinent and challenging questions, which even university professors have difficulty answering. ungekürzt.

    Foreword Reviews 2018 Indies Finalist - war & military"This short-fiction collection examines various characters' reactions to death, past regrets, and other life changes. Throughout these brief tales, Joy maintains a smooth prose style with a light touch that acts as a counterpoint to the darkness. Short edgy tales with depth." (Kirkus Reviews)"You can have your Italian and Scandinavian contemporary troubadours of modern life, Len Joy knows our American one. Especially he knows men, and as a woman reader, I like getting inside men's heads. No fancy stuff. No mumble jumble interiority. Len Joy is sold Americana." (Sandra Scofied, National Book Award nominee)It took me eight years, nine months, and three days to write my first novel American Past Time. My second novel Better Days was published in 2018 and my new novel Everyone Dies Famous will be published in 2020.Someone asked me what the theme of my collection was. I hate those questions. I'm really bad at theme. I don't think about a theme when I'm writing the story. I'm just trying to tell a story that interests me (and hopefully someone else).Here's a tagline for some of the stories: Riding a Greyhound Bus into the New World - a widower searches for the innocent boy he used to beDalton's Good Fortune - a down-on-his-luck ex-soldier gets a new perspective on his life from a fortune tellerThis Train Makes All the Stops - a man tries to adapt to a new world after his wife diesLetting Go - a woman in an emergency room waiting for a word on her husband, reflects on her marriageMost of these stories are about people who have lost something and are trying to find a way to move on with their lives. I hope you enjoy them. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David L.J. George. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/215293/bk_acx0_215293_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Turns out that mind-control drugs really suck...It was bad enough for Evangeline to spend a year running for her life. Now, she was stuck between the Houses who were hunting for her, the hellion-run mob, and an army of normals who are on a power-drug. Oh, and let's not forget the team of Directors controlling the Black Ops Paranormal Police Department...they don't give two shits about her living or dying, they just want their missions completed. To make make matters even more fun, Andras and his merry band of asshole-hellions have taken over the mob. It provides him with a more organized way of taking out Evangeline, but it also gives him a taste of power that he's not had before. It's intoxicating. At this point, Eve can't help but wonder if surrendering and being gutted wouldn't be the smartest choice. It's a damn shame that all those years being mentored by Garrick had kicked her in the scruples. Leaving the city of Los Angeles to fall under the influence of a deadly drug combination just doesn't sit well with her. Too bad that fighting against the rash of normals who are on the stuff is akin to doing battle with mindless-zombies. Not those slow, meandering type who mumble a lot, either. I'm talking the incredibly fast, ferocious kind who seriously enjoy a nice afternoon chomping on someone's throat.But Eve has picked up the scent of something in all this, and when she unveils what she's learned, the tables begin to turn. The worry is whether or not they'll turn before Evangeline, her team, and the city of Los Angeles gets shredded....The Paranormal Police Department has delighted thousands of listeners with action, adventure, outrageous (and often offensive) comedy, and tons of snark. Grab your badge and join the legion of fans who keep begging for more.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nicole Poole.

    In the great tradition of guy-humor everywhere, here comes humorist Robert Henry’s growling, good-hearted rant about holiday madness, A Married Man's Guide to Christmas. Henry reveals the truth about Christmas through the eyes of a typical married man. “Remember, it’s not how you celebrate the joyous season. It’s whether you are still alive, married, sleeping indoors, with a healthy prostate, and without a rap sheet on January 4th that counts.” Husbands will laugh out loud. Dads will slap their knees and keel over (have CPR ready). Wives, daughters, sisters, mothers, aunts, female co-workers, and sales clerks, who dread seeing men mumble and mutter their way through the Christmas section at Big Box Discout Warehouse, will nod in recognition at the syndrome best described as “Can I survive until New Year's?” A Married Man’s Guide to Christmas is a must for every guy who wants the women in his life to understand why he’d rather buy them gift certificates than brave the treacherous online world of lingerie catalogs. Why have just a joyous season, when you can have a Christmas filled with laughs that don’t include finding pictures of Uncle Herbert in a teddy? Irreverent, honest, and biodegradable, Robert Henry has here captured the essence of the holiday season for all men. So grab it today for all the beleaguered males on your Xmas list and all the long-suffering females who just want the lights strung on the front porch by Christmas Eve, the honey-do list completed before Aunt Sookie arrives with her flatulent Pekinese, and that expensive bottle of Scotch left mostly full until the tinsel is hung, the presents are wrapped, and the home owner’s association has accepted your apology for spelling out a less-than-jolly greeting in solar-powered candy canes on your front lawn. ungekürzt.

    Are you Christian and battling anxiety?Beloved, When Jesus left the earth, he could’ve given humans any gift. He had risen! He had been given authority over all things in heaven, on earth, and under the earth. He was in his glorified body. In his resurrection, he was revealed as the savior of the world. He could’ve given us anything, and we would’ve cherished it forever. But, as he ascended into the heavens, he chose to give us one gift.In John 14:27, Jesus said, ”Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.”The savior of the world, who came to earth to have the human experience so that we could see that he knew everything that we go through, decided that peace would be the most important parting gift.If you are a Christian and you’ve confessed Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, then you have access to this gift of peace. But, Beloved, a gift is useless if you don’t receive it. Jesus already gave you peace. But, if you don’t take it and apply it to your life, you won’t get the benefits of his gift. Do you want to know how to receive every gift that God planned for you to have? You seek out the promises regarding what you need in his word...and you hold on to them. You read them, you speak them, you start your thinking and reasoning from them, you mumble them under your breath, you recall them, and declare them when thoughts of anxiety and fear come around. Hold on to his world, and it’ll change your life. Draw close to him and he’ll come running to you.We must experience the consequence of his finished work. We do that by abiding in him. At Selah Christian Bible Meditations and MM Productions, we give you opportunities to cling to God’s word, learn to abide and thrive by staying in rhythm with the Holy Spirit, and hope against hope through guided meditations, curated Bible verse word baths, and more. Wha ungekürzt.
