I can’t believe how excited I was yesterday afternoon. It was about 90 degrees and the conditions must have been perfect for the baby preying mantises. They hatched FINALLY!!!! You would have thought Santa was in my house by the way I was running around screaming “They Hatched, They Hatched! The boys were thrilled and they helped me scatter them throughout the yard. This morning I will give some to my neighbors two girls to put in their yard. Now comes the best part. Daily hunts for preying mantises with the kids. Love It!!

Arresting Grace
Michael Joel Green
3.8 Stars (23 Reviews)
Genre: Religion & Spirituality

FREE for a limited time

Author’s Note: This abridged version of ARRESTING GRACE is leaner, stronger and more focused. I hope you enjoy.

Michael Green expected many things from his 38th year: to redeem a failed acting/music/writing career, to build upon friendships and church relationships, and most of all, to finally meet someone. He’d been looking, and waiting, a long time.

What he didn’t expect was to get arrested for a DUI, driving home from a church dinner. That changed everything.

It was a shame, too. Two weeks earlier, he had met someone.

ARRESTING GRACE is the story of Michael Green’s DUI arrest, as well as his long distance relationship with Jessie, a lovely woman from the Bay Area. Thoughtfully written and raw, with unflinching honesty. A man searches for answers most earnestly when he’s brought low. This is the story of a man, fallen lower than imaginable, searching for God in the midst…and finding grace in the most unexpected places.

That Does Not Compute! Computer and Internet Cartoons from ComputorEdge Magazine.
Jim Whiting
4.1 Stars (13 Reviews)
Genre: Comics & Graphic Novels | Computers & Technology | Humor & Entertainment

FREE for a limited time

A collection of over 150 cartoons from ComputorEdge Magazine by Jim Whiting and Jack Dunning about the trials and tribulations of using computers and the Internet. Cartoons include Death getting his identity stolen, nagging PDF files, the biker gang’s Web designer, eBay for dogs, Apple iPokes, user-unfriendly software, and many more silly technological situations.

This book represents over three years of brain straining and pencil breaking in order to grind out one cartoon per week. By now, some of them may seem dated, but at this point so do we. (Interestingly, things have not changed that much after all.) Looking back at the cartoons in this book, it is noted that some of them are really stupid while a couple are quite clever. We’ll leave it to the reader to figure out which is which. If one of these frames makes you smile (or even groan), then we have done our job. As of this digital printing we continue to pump out one cartoon a week at ComputorEdge Online.

The Writing on the Wall
Julie Morrigan
4.8 Stars (4 Reviews)
Genre: Anthologies | Horror

FREE for a limited time

What if you only had as many days left to live as there are letters in your name? What if an invisible hand shaped your destiny? What if your night terrors were real?

These and other questions are posed in The Writing on the Wall, a collection of what might loosely be described as ‘weird fiction’: strange happenings, dangerous artifacts, curses, cannibals, and witches. The stories tell of a world where no one is quite who you think they are and nothing is quite what it seems.

The collection comprises six short stories, including the prize-winning The Black Dog, a ghost story with a traditional feel that has been described as being in the style of M.R. James, plus the terrifying novelette-length title story.

A bonus story, Steven Miscandlon’s Frigid Air, will have you checking the contents of your refrigerator every half hour. Or possibly never opening the door again.

Prepare for chills and terror as you encounter the unusual, the unsettling and the downright horrific in The Writing on the Wall. Light the lamps. Lock the door. And whatever you do, don’t look behind you.
