The Story Of A Man
Marvin A. Hayes
About the Book
The Story Of A Man is a collection of poems that express emotions of love, pain, laughter, wisdom and self-reflection. Poetry has always been a passion of mine and it later became the avenue to express the memory of the comings and goings of my existence. This is the reason why I chose the title, “”The Story Of A Man.”” Many of the poems were written during my years in undergrad. My college years came and went; however years later I contemplated publishing them. It was then I decided to begin the journey to publish the story of my life.When thinking about the book cover and what I wanted to express to the reader, I chose to use my drawing of Muhammad Ali. Ali is one of my favourite hero’s and a poet himself. In fact the first poem in the book is about Muhammad Ali, a man with an amazing story of struggle and triumph. I selected his picture in hope of attracting the attention of readers who understand each person has an individual story. Just like Ali we all too may experience struggles, pain, and triumph. This book also includes photos that show that my life has been very full.
The photos in the book include pictures of my wife of 50yrs. Mrs. Geraldine Elaine Robinson Hayes, and our legacy which includes my two older children and our five children which makes for 30 grandchildren. I hope that each reader enjoys the poems and pictures and it encourages them to embrace the story of their own life.

But Is He Jewish?
and Other Quirky Tales
Daniel Wolf
About the Book
“But Is He Jewish? is divided into three sections. The first section, “Quirky Tales,” consists of fifty short stories. Although each touches upon some aspect of Jewish life and culture, they deal with such universal themes as love, mortality, courage, coming of age, and the importance of family.The following section, “Mishegas” (Yiddish for craziness), includes stand-up comedy routines, the philosophical musings of a fictitious rabbi, advice for daily living (“A Guide for the Confused”), “Eighty Questions to Ponder,” and nonsensical poetry (“Quit”).ho
The final section, “Animals with Attitudes”, features four humorous mini-plays with animals (elephants, lions, housecats, and rhinoceroses) taking on Jewish characteristics and even speaking some Yiddish (translations provided).
In all, But Is He Jewish? provides a delightful reading experience, as it addresses a variety of topics in a mostly humorous but always human manner.”

Chapel In My Heart
Brigitte Macko
About the Book
After everything that happened to me, I finally understood the phrase “God is a living God.” I just always assumed that miracles, healings, voices, and visions only happened during Biblical times. If he was dead, he couldn’t have saved my life every time I called his name. Mind you, I seldom had time to say a prayer, only God’s name. Sometimes I didn’t even have time for that. He is alive in our midst. Our limited human brain cannot wrap itself around it. That is why we have faith, belief, and love. These are the three key words.
About the Author
Brigitte Macko was born on March 12, 1944, during World War II in Schwabisch Gmund, West Germany. She had a strict Catholic upbringing. At the young age of five, she heard a voice in a dangerous situation. When she “obeyed,” it saved her life. She didn’t tell anyone because she couldn’t explain it. She came to Oswego, New York, in 1966 and lived in Bridgeport and Minoa, New York, until 1998. She worked for GM from 1972–1998 in Syracuse, New York, when she transferred to the Lockport plant. During her seventy-five years, she has experienced many voices, visions, supernatural events, etc. Some were downright scary and shook her to the core. She still resides in Lockport, New York.

Unlocking the Theories of Creation
Fred Snowden
About the Book
Evolutionists, Creationists and Intelligent Design theorists have been arguing the questions of the origin of the universe for decades. To the surprise of many, the argument is not simply scientific, Philosophy and point of view often skew the facts.

In this book we look for answers from philosophy, time, life, anthropology, the experts, Columbus & Galileo and the Soul. Can they help us get to the truth?

HOUSE ON THE CORNER:
TALKING WALLS, WALKING SINS
Linda Quillian
About the Book
She had to come to from the cocktail’s spell soon. He had to make her think that she had slept off the Cognac cocktail, rather than his odiously prepared sedative. If she doubted his veracity, should there be residual evidence like blood smear, Armstrong knew he had to make her believe that her period came on that afternoon. “I’m not worried,” he consoled himself. “I have no prison record. Colleagues consider me a pillar of the community.” His marriage had saved him from charges for Kandi’s statutory rape at fifteen, and child support had been accepted for his seduction of Junie at the same age. Successful circumvention of criminal charges fed his sense of insidious invincibility. Total control and facile stealth in his deed gave him insatiable satisfaction like a child stealing the cookie, a thrill he would not have enjoyed if it had been handed to him outright. The thrill of his game was everything. The charm in the chase was an undeniable chasm whose slippery periphery was a round of Jeopardy.About the Author
Atlanta, Georgia was her launching pad. Taking flight as Traffic Assistant for Ted Turner at Channel 17 landed Dr. Linda Quillian at a number of stops on the way: On-Air Personality for Georgia Radio Reading Service; Executive Assistant for D.C. Public Schools; and professorial employment at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Howard University in D.C., University of the District of Columbia, Bowie State University in Md., and Benedict College in S.C., where flight touched down and coasted to the runway of Chair and Dean. “Whatever your passion, it has to resonate like a party within. A passion like writing makes you forget about the time you spend dancing with it. Even when the party music stops playing, you never want to leave. I sometimes do not choreograph the words. Angels visit and show me the Plie’, Ballotte’, Arabesque, or Tendu, while ancestors teach the Gwara Gwara, Stanky Leg, Mambo, and Bachata. Writing is a dance with the reader whose partnership is unimpeachable. -
PEE WEE: Serial Killer or Homicidal Maniac
A Novelized True Crime Story, Volume II
O. Grady Query
About the Book
Volume II of PEE WEE, Serial Killer or Homicidal Maniac, focuses on the courtroom drama of his several trials and appeals. Readers that enjoy trial strategy, courtroom personalities and the cloakroom maneuvering of the criminal courts will find a plethora of intriguing twists and turns. Seemingly foregone outcomes are reversed by national events or by the local politics of the farmlands of South Carolina that stubbornly resist change. It is replete with excerpts from actual trial transcriptions and transcripts of out of court statements given under oath. Despite his numerous murder convictions Gaskins manages time and again to avoid the death penalty in real life by virtue of unexpected events that could seemingly occur only in fiction. Told by an attorney intimately involved in the cases, there are pithy descriptions of battles fought in and out of the courtroom on the one hand and on the other of the camaraderie between adversaries. Both often lead to unpredictable outcomes. Pee Wee Gaskins describes the murders to which he will plead guilty in his own words. At the same time by either omission or outright lies, he avoids the inclusion of those murders for which he does not want to admit responsibility. Finally, in one of the most incredible crimes imaginable, the tiny killer foils the safeguard systems of a maximum security penitentiary to murder a fellow death row inmate with plastic explosives.About the Author
GRADY QUERY is a practicing attorney in Charleston, South Carolina. He has written the story of Pee Wee Gaskins, based on his years of representation of the diminutive mass murderer. Court appointed to represent Gaskins Query spent hundreds of hours in court, visiting crime scenes, interviewing witnesses and simply listening to his client. This book while fictional is based largely upon those experiences and the direct information gleaned from his time with Gaskins. -

Dada (Contrapposto poets succumbing to peaches…) It sounds like Jazz (See Sisyphus scorn at amber headlights in Paris dew…) Looks like Impressionism ( is day of rest I worship Santa Barbara and the celestial trip I straddle…) Expressionism (On the Orange Line… I saw dog paws tattooed on her thigh and red daisies on her boots…) And Surrealism (In random chimera conceits I think of blue nights…) Explode is art responding to poetry and poetry responding to art in — esoteric beginnings and sublime endings.

Grant’s Wish
T.S. Pollard
About the Book
Grant’s Wish is a delightful tale of a very old and historic hotel that’s fallen on hard times and is rundown. The 150- year-old Silver Swan Inn once boasted famous overnight guests, such as authors, US presidents, and noted military leaders like Ulysses S. Grant, who stayed there occasionally during the Civil War years.
Lee Nieman, manager of a posh Atlanta hotel, has been demoted for engaging in local politics and exiled to Plainview, Indiana, where the Swan Inn, the hotel chain’s least profitable property, is located. His job is to ready the hotel to be sold or torn down. Dispirited initially, he grows to cherish the antique-filled hotel’s charms and its rich history and eventually aims to buy and restore it. But there are obstacles: a down payment he can’t afford; the haughty, rich great-granddaughter of the Swan’s founder; and an old Indian, whose tribe has a legendary grudge against the hotel. The story, sprinkled with history, reads like a mystery with surprising turns of events all keeping readers turning pages and perhaps gaining a view of our nation’s 18th President that likely differs from what they learned in school.About the Author

We Called Ourselves Rocketboatmen
William Howard Palmer Jr.
The Untold Stories of the Top-Secret LSC(S) Rocket Boat Missions of World War II at Sicily, Normandy (Omaha and Utah Beaches), and Southern France.
About the Book:
“D-Day, June 6, 1944—a day never to be forgotten. More than 156,000 troops crossed the English Channel from England to Normandy, making it the largest seaborne invasion in history. Leading the pre-invasion ashore were the brave, but little known, rocketboatmen, as they called themselves. Their job, as the first close up Naval offense, was to soften up the German beach defenses with 48 rockets, machine gunnery, and smoke screening, preparing the way for the LCVP infantrymen.Through private diary entries and firsthand accounts, many read here for the first time, the unfolding of the earliest events leading up to the invasion is told in vivid and unforgettable detail. In choppy seas, oftentimes like sitting ducks in the water, these young men manned their landing craft approached the beaches at exactly 6:00 A.M.— half an hour before H-hour—unleashed their barrage of forty-eight rockets, twelve boats at Omaha, twelve at Utah Beach, lighting up the coastline like a Fourth of July grand finale. Several boats actually beached at Omaha and Utah under shell and bombardment and crossfire sustaining casualties, eliminating German coastline pill boxes.
