Hello my friends, I’m back with you today to celebrate yet another sponsor of the upcoming 2018 Writers’ Conference and Book Expo, W.J. Scott. Let me introduce you to her book and story. I hope you check it out. I know you’ll enjoy it very much.
Sometimes loss is the only thing that saves you.
Last summer
during the dreaded hunting season, Kywah lost his tail, his magic, and
his value as a silvertail. Now the hunters have returned and he’s
terrified. Especially when he recognizes Samsa, the very hunter that cut
off his tail, and ruined his life.
But when the pack becomes trapped in the foothills with no escape, Kywah realizes he’s their only hope. Without a tail, he’s worthless to the hunters and their wizard masters. If he can escape, he can find help for his pack. All he has to do is locate the Wise One and retrieve the Deep Magic.
Which
would be hard enough even if he still had the magical tail sense his
kind are born with. But what choice does he have? If he doesn’t take the
risk, his pack will lose everything. And because Kywah knows exactly
how that feels, he can’t let it happen.
Excerpt: I woke. Heart beating too fast. Darkness smothering me. The same nightmare. I
shifted and felt the familiar throb of pain along my stub, which always
ached when I first awakened. For an instant I tried to fool myself that
it had only been a dream, but when I was brave enough to peek, I saw
the empty space where my tail should be. Almost four seasons had passed,
and I was still unaccustomed to its loss.
I have read this book, and it is a great story for children. It teaches all the values we adults should have. Please follow the 2018 WC&BE SPONSORS BLOG HOPThere you can meet all the wonderful authors and readers in our group. I recommend you join our group if you’re searching for tremendous support and fellowship.
It is time again to spotlight another wonderful sponsor for the 2019 Writers’ Conference and Book Exposition. Today, we celebrate author Mary Adler and her book, In the Shadow of Lies. Let’s learn more about it now:
Richmond, California. World War II. Marine Lieutenant Oliver Wright
comes home from the war in the Pacific injured and afraid his career as a
homicide detective is over, but when black soldiers are suspected of
killing an Italian Prisoner of War, the Army asks Oliver to find out the
truth.
He and his canine partner Harley join forces with an
Italian POW captain and with a black MP embittered by a segregated
military. During their investigation, these unlikely allies expose
layers of deceit and violence that stretch back to World War I and
uncover a common thread that connects the murder to earlier crimes.
In
the Shadow of Lies reveals the darkness and turmoil of the Bay Area
during World War II, while celebrating the spirit of the everyday people
who made up the home front. Its intriguing characters will resonate
with the reader long after its deftly intertwined mysteries are solved.
About Mary Adler
I escaped the university politics of “the ivory tower” for the much gentler world of World War II and the adventures of homicide detective Oliver Wright and his German shepherd, Harley. I live with my family in Sebastopol, California, where we have created a garden habitat for birds and bees and butterflies, and other less desirable critters. (Unintended consequences at work again.) I love dogs and books, crows and compassion, writing and writers, and all things Italian, especially Commissioner Montalbano and cannoli, not necessarily in that order. I remind myself daily of the question poet Mary Oliver asks: “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”
Today it is my honor to showcase yet another amazing #RRBC author: Yvette Calleiro and her book “The One Discovered.”
How do you choose when both options have dire consequences?
Sofia is a 17 year old who is quite content with her life. She has a caring boyfriend who also just happens to be her best friend since birth. She has a loving mother. She is successfully completing her last year of high school and enjoys her part-time job. She can’t imagine wanting more from her life…until Ar’ch (pronounced Ar-rick) enters her dreams, sparking a burning flame inside of her that she can’t seem to extinguish nor does she want to.
Ar’ch is a Diasodz (Die-ah-sodz), a species created by the Goddess back when God created humans. Diasodz were made to heal and protect humans, but when the Diasodz turned their backs on helping humans and left Earth to live in their own world, the Goddess abandoned them. Since then, their powers and their very lives have been fading. A prophecy foretold that a young girl born on Earth would be the Diasodz’s savior. Ar’ch and his brother, Angel, travel to Earth to retrieve her and bring her back to their world before her death day in order to save their kind. Ar’ch knows the drill: find the target, capture her, and safely bring her home. But what happens when the target captures his dormant heart?
Choices create action. Actions have consequences. When faced with the truth, what choice will Sofia make? Will she be able to accept the consequences that follow?
Today, I want to introduce you to another wonderful #RaveReviewsBookClub author, Susanne Leist. Let us learn about her latest novel.
PREY
FOR THE DEAD, Book Two of THE DEAD GAME Series. The battle continues between
the vampires as the humans from Oasis, Florida, are thrust in the middle.
I wrote
a poem to share Todd’s point of view. The human vampire has fallen for my human
protagonist, Linda, but Todd must compete with another for her love. The Dead
vampires and The Watcher vampires face off in the final showdown. Will Linda
choose Todd or the vampire Wolf?
“Brutal
winds follow close on my heels. Thunder and lightning join the crusade. Fluorescent lights paint the night sky In rings of orange, yellow, and red.
A vortex of horror in unending circles Makes its way to the town of Oasis. I wait with sword in hand, Secure in the knowledge that Wolf won’t win.
The Watchers have joined the battle. I can see them on the hill beyond. Their raincoats flap in the wind, Revealing their hidden weapons.
We
protect Linda from the devil, Standing firm in the fighting winds. The Father clutches his bible of spells To help cast the evil from the town.
Humans,
vampires, and human vampires Have come together as one. The last battle on this earthly planet Will determine our fate.
Linda
holds onto her friends, Huddled together in the raging winds. Will she choose wisely? Will she choose me above The Dead?
The
time has come for the showdown. Time has slowed to a stop. We raise our weapons above our heads As we wait for evil to make its final appearance.
Wolf
sports a new body. But I recognize his deadly soul. A new package for an old one Does not change the battle to be won.”
The vampire Wolf walks to Linda, love
deepening the green of his eyes. He offers his hand. She hesitates. Should she
trust her heart? He appeals to her in this poem.
“Walk
with me through the moonlit forest.
Let our feet graze the tips of the grass,
never touching down,
held aloft by our love and passion.
Follow
me through the endless night
to a land where no man walks.
Only creatures as dark as the sky
dare to venture forth alone.
Love
has no bounds or shackles.
We will be free to display our passion
without retribution from humanity
as long as you remain mine.
Come
with me, my ice princess.
Step away from the burning plains,
where the heat burns your soul
and love is hampered by the living.”
Wolf
extends his hand to me.
The words flow from him.
His lips never utter a sound,
but his meaning as clear as can be.
We
can be together forever.
But the other has followed us.
Todd will fight for me
and never relinquish his hold on me.
His
eyes burn red with passion.
Fire follows close on his footsteps,
scorching a trail through the grass,
melting his enemy’s cold trail.
They
face each other.
Hot and cold from opposite poles,
dueling until the end of time
as they fight to the death.
I have always loved to read.
Agatha Christie, Alistair Maclean, Robert Ludlum, and many other authors filled
my young imagination with intrigue and mystery. When I wasn’t reading late into
the night, the TV shows—Murder She Wrote and Columbo—entertained me with tales
of murder and suspense.
Over the years, my taste in
TV expanded to include such shows as Supernatural and The Originals. I searched
for paranormal, murder mysteries but found few at the library or bookstore. So,
I wrote one.
A career in writing has been
a big leap for me. Accustomed to the number-crunching field of budgeting and
the hectic commodity markets, I left my first career and M.B.A. in Finance
behind to pursue my dream. I do not regret my foray into literature for one
moment. Fellow authors helped me make my way through the competitive field. I
write every day and even tried my hand at poetry. If someone tells you it’s too
late in life to try something different, they are wrong. It is never too late
to follow your heart.
The
Dead Game is the first book in The Dead Game series. It brings fantasy and the
surreal to the classic murder mystery with dead bodies, suspects, and clues. It
offers vampires, vampire derivatives, and a touch of romance to give spice to
the mix. Once you read The Dead Game, you will never look at a dead body the
same way.
In
Book Two, Prey for The Dead, the suspense continues as The Dead use an
exclusive club in Disney World and infiltrate the rich and famous. The Dead
grow in power, and not even the sun or the swamps of Florida can weaken them.
Linda–my main character–and her friends join with the human vampires or
hybrids to defeat the evil forces threatening to control their town.
I hope you enjoy my books. The third book of The Dead Game
Series is waiting for me to write.

For today’s post, another wonderful #RRBC author, Ron Yates, is taking center stage. Enjoy!
What do you like most about the Historical Fiction genre?
Historical fiction is one of the most popular forms of fiction being written
today—along with young adult, zombie apocalypse, romance novels, and sci-fi.
I am specifically interested in learning why people like historical fiction
books. I have a few theories, but I would like to know what others think.
As an author, I enjoyed writing the Finding Billy Battles trilogy—a
historical fiction trilogy that begins in 19th Century Kansas and
then moves (in Book 2) to the colonial Far East, then (in Book 3) to Mexico,
and finally back to the United States in the mid-20th Century.
I am interested in knowing what it is that draws a reader (or writer) to
this kind of fiction.
As for me, I enjoy doing the research necessary to create an accurate
portrayal of the people, places, and events of other eras, such as the 19th
Century. I especially like “slowing” down the pace of life from the
frenetic and hectic world of the 21st Century.
What I find appealing about eras “BSM” (Before Social Media),
smartphones, I-pads, etc. is that you actually had time to THINK
rather than simply react.
When I was a foreign correspondent for the Chicago Tribune, I can
recall telling my office (via telex) when I was covering Vietnam, Cambodia, El
Salvador etc. in the 70s & 80s that I would be out of touch for several
days.
Then I would go to some remote area and spend time talking with people,
analyzing what I was hearing and what I was seeing and then return to write a
story that wasn’t filled with “instant wisdom” as we so often see
today with journalists who “parachute” in to a country to
cover a story.
Writing about the 19th Century, as I did in my trilogy, allowed
me to slow down the pace, provide historical context, and give my characters
time to think.
Today, we are all in such a hurry to do things, to pack in as much as we can
in a single day. When I think about my characters in the Finding Billy Battles
trilogy, I envy the fact that they were not sped up by “galloping
technology” as we are so often today.
My characters actually had time to stop and smell the flowers, enjoy a
brilliant sunset, “listen” to a forest, and take the time to read a good book.
So, I am asking you to tell ME what YOU think about all of
this.
Write as much or as little as you like. You can send your thoughts to me at:
jhawker69@gmail.com.
I would love to share your thoughts and comments with my followers.

It’s a real honor for me to have a support yet another amazing #RRBC author on my blog today. Pardon the pun, but it is a joy to welcome Joy Nwosu Lo-Bamijoko to the site.
Welcome to the Vagaries of Life Blog Tour @Jinlobify#4WillsPub #RRBC
Introduction:
My latest book,
which is a collection of short stories, was put together to meet the challenge
of
My tour will last ten days. Ten days is a very long time
to be on a tour, and I know how hard and even boring it could be to visit all
the stops. To spice things up, I will feature, randomly, short snippets of a story
from my tour book each day. On the tenth day, I will uncover the titles of the
stories from where the snippets are taken. The challenge, this time, will be
for you to match the snippets to their titles.
The
Rules:
I will choose only three winners from the correct matches.
The winner with nine correct matches will be gifted with a $15 Amazon gift card
and an eBook copy of your choice from any of my books. The second with eight
correct matches will be gifted with a $10 Amazon gift card and an eBook copy of
your choice from my books. The third winner with seven correct matches will be with
gifted a $5. Amazon gift card and an eBook copy of your choice from my books.
Now the catch! If you follow the tour and read the snippets,
I would hope that you would buy and read the complete stories and leave a
review of the book after the tour.
This tour will be supported by another of my books; Pregnant Future. If you want to read
that one too, that will be great. However, the focus will be on Vagaries of Life: And Girls’ Talk. Good
reading!

On May 18, 1980, Mt. St.
Helens in the Washington State, U.S.A was erupted. It was a major eruption
among the 48 states since 1915. The ash drifted over many states and could be
seen as far as Chicago. The evacuation was announced before the eruption. Mr.
Harry Truman, the caretaker of a resort lodge refused to be evacuated. He
preferred to die with the mountain, so he, along with five residents, died with
the mountain.
I was in Seattle when Mt. St.
Helens wad erupted. It was my desire to hike Mt. St. Helens and see what
it was like years after the eruption. My family and I went back to visit on
September 10, 2016. The mud and debris still filled the river. The bottom of
the mountain had some signs of growth. I was amazed to see the life after such
a devastation.

Greetings one and all, and a hearty thank-you to my kind
host and 4 Wills Publishing!
In this seventh blog tour stop we meet the fourth of Ace’s
five associates. Is see a dark-haired gentleman coming in, now. Gracious. He
looks like a movie star. That slick suit accents his trim waist, and he’s got a
carnation in the buttonhole. A cane, too, like Charlie Chaplin but he carries
it in such a suave way it’s inconspicuous.
GW: Greetings, Bert.
Bert: Hello, theah.
GW: Oh, a New England accent?
Bert: Yes, indeed. Boston, to be precise.
GW: Is Bert a nickname?
Bert: It’s shortened, yes.
GW: What’s your full name?
Bert: Hubert Ewing Devery Christopher Bostock III.
GW: That’s … quite a name. That’s your legal name?
Bert: And my father’s before me, and his father’s before
him. The Bostocks are what they call old money in Boston.
GW: A veritable princeling.
Bert: You mean the suit, I presume. I’m not rich. My father
turned black sheep and he was disinherited before I was born.
GW: That sounds like a good story.
Bert: Does it? Wicked good. But I’m not sure. Father’s a
doctor living in Panama. That’s where I was born.
GW: Sam scolded me for walking on eggshells, so I’ll just
say it. Your skin is dark for a typical Bostonian. Are you part Panamanian?
Bert: Smaht. Very smaht. That’s exactly right. Dual
citizenship.
GW: How did you come to meet Ace and your fellow
associates?
Bert: The Great War. I met Quack first, and he managed to
get us both captured. We ended up in the back of the truck heading for St. Vith
with Ace and the others.
GW: Was it a memorable meeting?
Bert: Yah, the memory is clear. Ace understood German. She
knew where we were going and why. She had blood stains on her flight suit and a
look like a hawk or something I can’t even describe. Inside ten seconds it was
clear who we were going to follow. Well, maybe Ace didn’t know, but we all
knew.
GW: And now you’re an Ace Carroway associate, looking for
trouble all over the world.
GW: I didn’t. I was trying to make a joke. It didn’t come
off. So, to regroup, do you ever think you’re in over your head? That you’ll
all die in a hail of bullets or something?
Bert: Yes and no. I mean, yes, intellectually. In my heart,
though, I think I’m like everybody else. I think I’m immortal. Anyway, I hope I
don’t die by bullets. Not my favorite way to die.
Bert: A gentleman never reveals his tailor. But you might like
this.
GW: Your cane? Oh! It’s actually a sword?
Bert: Technically, an épée. Heavier than a foil, not so
heavy as a sabre.
GW: You’re right. That’s very sneaky, and I like it. Have
you ever used it?
Bert: Alas, no, the situation has never arisen. I’m waiting
for the day I can scare the pants off a would-be mugger with it.
GW: Is this sword your special ability in the group?
Bert: No! I’m not sure I have a special ability. I’m the
one they push to the front to do the talking. I think that means I’m the most
expendable.
GW: Eh, wouldn’t it mean you’re the most persuasive
speaker?
Bert: That’s an optimistic way of putting it.
GW: Given the choice, I generally pick optimism. Thanks for
speaking with us today, Bert.
Bert: My pleasure.
Bert’s quotes:
Spoken with amazement: “Eh? You’re not going to call me out
on being a hothead?”
Normal griping: “Bumbling, comedic pack of dolts! This is
no way to win a war!”
Waxing eloquent at Quack’s expense: “You are not a doctor,
sir! You were barely enrolled in medical school when the war broke out! Why
else should I call you a quack? It’s only the truth.”
Normal griping: “I’m gassed! Can we take a rest?”
When sworn to tell the truth: “I hate to agree with the
Quack, but he’s right on this one.”
“Yaaaaah!” — The sound one makes when firing a machine gun.
Giving lawyerly advice: “Ace. You don’t have to talk to any
reporters.”
And a limerick!
The sharp-dressed Bostonian’s Bert.
His manner may sometimes be curt.
But throw him a curvy,
(A woman) observey!
He is an incorrigible flirt.
Join Ace Carroway and her motley gang of associates as they
travel the world, solving mysteries and fighting crime.
In ACE CARROWAY and the GREAT WAR, sixteen-year-old Cecilia
Carroway lies about her age and joins the war effort as a pilot. She earns her
Ace nickname over France, but is forced down behind enemy lines. Escape plans
are imperiled when Ace catches the attention of imperial minister Darko Dor.
Three years later, in ACE CARROWAY AROUND THE WORLD, Ace’s
father dies in a hail of bullets in quiet Hyannis, Cape Cod. Lieutenant Drew
Lucy is on the case, but it’s Ace Carroway at the top of his list of suspects.
In ACE CARROWAY and the HANDSOME DEVIL, Ace barely survives
an assassination attempt at the hands of her old nemesis Darko Dor. Figuring
the best defense is offense, she starts a detective agency in New York. Before
the paint on the door dries, a new web of deception ensnares the rookie
sleuths. Sudden romantic attention from a pair of handsome strangers is good,
right?
The Adventures of Ace Carroway are available at many fine
stores around the world.
Wyoming native Guy Worthey traded spurs and lassos for
telescopes and computers when he decided on astrophysics for a day job.
Whenever he temporarily escapes the gravitational pull of stars and galaxies,
he writes fiction. He lives in Washington state with his violinist wife Diane.
He likes cats and dogs and plays keyboards and bass guitar. His favorite food
is called creamed eggs on toast, but once in a while he heeds the siren song of
chocolate.

Visionary/metaphysical fiction turbo charges transformative energy. It’s
a different kind of read. You need to be willing to suspend disbelief regarding
an unseen world. There are those hard-core empiricists who just can’t do it.
They only believe in and trust what they can see, touch, smell, and control.
But, there are other folks like you and me for whom the unseen world of the
deep unconscious mind pulls and pulsate. It’s what old shamans called the
spiritual world. Daily, in my professional practice of depth psychology, I
witness numinous images and symbols emerge from the unconscious. They speak to
the story of a soul in the midst of gaining consciousness, healing, and

My latest novel will be published in e-book and paperback on January 15, 2019. Carl Prescott and The Sleeping One is my first young adult fantasy and part one of a new series to follow the adventures of Carl and his friends. As with all of my stories, it focuses on the traits I value most: family, friendship, love, and faith.
Carl and his friends, Grace Mulligan and Burt Jackson venture far from home to attend the Bertrand Aloysius Thorndike Academic Institution, located in the Azores Islands in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean. Thorndike is one of two schools on Earth that cater to the unusual talents of their students.
It is a tale of four students who discover their talents are far beyond anything they could have imagined. It is also a story of new love and enduring friendship.
The Sleeping One is also a book about good and evil. The second school believes that the talents should be used to enslave the world rather than help humanity. Headmaster Greenleaf and Professor Thorndike VIII recognize Carl’s growing talents and realize the fourteen year-old may stop their plans. Soon, the battle is joined and the future of Earth is in the hands of Carl Sandberg Prescott.
