In this amazing anti-mystery loaded with dark humor, twenty-three-year-old Monty Hill leaves his Midwestern roots for 1977 Hollywood with dreams of becoming a major film screenwriter. He meets Harry, an unpredictable yet endearing man who in hopes to assist Monty financially, steers him to an apparently dangerous producer of pornographic movies, just as an unidentified pedophile looms in the background, inexplicably relating his own brief narratives. There are shocks and secrets aplenty buried in this intelligent story based on actual events, but it’s up to the reader to figure out where they are hidden before they crash-land with thoroughly unexpected explosions.
This sci fi adventure opens on the crest of a gravity tsunami, when a red dwarf star system punches through the fabric of space-time and barrels toward the Milky Way Galaxy. The Early Warning Centre can only watch helplessly as colonized space braces for impact.
Questions arise. Is it merely a star system? Or, is something else altogether?
The dire situation takes an unforeseen twist in this science fantasy when an SOS transmission from a long-lost experimental starship, The Invictus, is traced to the sole planet orbiting the red dwarf.
Alexandra, Post Office Marshal and living goddess, is in an action-packed race against time when she is conscripted to retrieve either the Invictus itself or, failing that, it’s top-secret data, before the ship is lost to imminent galactic collision, or worse, falls into the wrong hands.

? Sometimes the best lessons are learned in the most terrible ways. ?
This is a story about two writers.
One is published, rich, and famous; the other, unpublished, poor, and unknown.
The rich guy is me, Max McMillan. I’m the greatest hack ever. I swear I am.
On most days, I walk around the house naked and publish best-selling books every few months or whatever.
The women come and go like it’s a goddamn whorehouse. But I’m thinking about marriage. See, there’s this girl. She’s got a name, but I can’t remember it. I call her Cowgirl Up. It suits her well.
I don’t love her because I don’t think I can. I only love four people: my poor writer friend, Jack, his wife, Jane, and their two kids, Lucy and Nathan.
I hate everyone else.
Did I say Jane is dying from cancer?
And I hate cancer.
This is my story. It’s absurd and outrageous. It really is.
If you’re an asshole like me, you’ll really love this story. I swear you will. It’s that crazy.
And if you buy this book, I just might buy myself another Corvette. (Hell, at least you know that I’m also honest.)
Even the best psychic occasionally gets things wrong, but Lizzie Chandler’s mistake almost lands her six feet under.
Lizzie’s
not one to let a little thing like a murder attempt destroy her new
psychic matchmaking business. She puts on her happy face and takes on
24-year-old Myra, her most challenging client yet.
Myra’s afraid
of men and insists on marrying a senior citizen who doesn’t want sex.
Lizzie’s a sucker for anyone in need and really wants to help Myra, but
she’s a psychic, not a miracle worker. In spite of her best efforts,
she has no luck finding Myra her Mr. Right. She begins to wonder if her
new client is unmatchable.
But Myra is not Lizzie’s only problem.
She has annoying senior citizens demanding everything from driving
lessons to sleuthing tips. She also has a news woman trying hard to
discredit her psychic abilities.
As if that isn’t more than enough, weird things are happening that make Lizzie question her sanity. It’s a lot for the nearly murdered psychic to handle. Is it time to trade her cozy little matchmaking office for a padded cell?
Love is superior, family is mighty, and we were put here, not for ourselves, but for each other. These are the core values that were passed down to me from my grandfather. Don’t chase the chickens because one day one might just chase you back, beer is more than just a breakfast drink, and do what you want, not what you’re told… these were also some things of value that were passed down to me from Grandpa.
Growing up just down the hill from my grandfather and his chickens taught me more about life than anything that I could’ve learned in school (had I paid attention). Learning how to stand up for myself, to lend a helping hand, to nurture, and protect the things I love, are just a few of the lessons that I learned while crossing that grassy path between his house and mine.
Life Lessons from Grandpa and His Chicken Coop is a book about love, family, youth, maturing, and all the learning that happens in between. It is a powerful, humorous, insightful, playful, and philosophical narrative about perspective and the lessons that I have learned growing up just as ornery as my ornery grandfather and his precious chickens.

Mel and Shar, two friends of a certain age, say, “Absolutely!”
So, despite the fact that neither lady has ever watched a porn video or read anything steamier than Eighties romances, they decide Elderly Erotica is their ticket to fame and fortune.
Because…why not?
Surely, at least a few of their fellow boomers—who were once into sex, drugs, and rock ‘n roll—remain interested in something spicier than the Senior’s Menu at Black-eyed Pea.
Can Mel and Shar start a successful porn business by filming certain sexual acts—later TBD–with a smartphone?
Can they write successful erotica with only a passing acquaintance of four-letter-words, not to mention marginal computer skills?
Follow the adventures of Mel McCartney and Shar Ledowsky, as they kind of, sort of explore the world of Elderly Erotica.
And, if they become porn clowns who host political porn parties in order to increase voter registration; are picketed by protestors of their C***y, C** and C**ks: Recipes for Desire cookbook, and become intimately acquainted with one Hot Shot police officer along the way, well…
That just proves Mel and Shar are up for anything.
Okay, to clarify:
Mel and Shar’s Erotic Adventures: Tales from the Boomer Life was born out of the author and her childhood friend’s late-night giggle fests, which always include the following lamentation: “What the hell happened to us boomers?”
Now optioned for a movie! The perfect antidote to political blues.
