Nope. I am just not in the mood yet to clean up after the Fourth of July party. It was a great party with family and friends and I had a blast as usual, but today I am finding it particularly hard to get up off the couch. The house has the strong smell of day old BBQ and stale chips, but it’s still not enough to get me up. Actually it’s kinda making me hungry. I walked by a bowl of tortilla chips that have been out for over twelve hours and I contemplated grabbing one. I then remembered that this house was filled with boogery kids and they were enjoying that same bowl the entire night. Still took me a few seconds before I moved on to the kitchen. The chocolate cake in the fridge is very inviting, but social norms say I should at least have a piece of bread before cake. Hmmm…. that’s never stopped me before. Why start now?

Afterlife
Guy Smith
Genre: Contemporary Fiction
FREE for a limited time
After death, one soon discovers that every theologian was right. The afterlife offers too many inconvenient options including the chance at reincarnation, a boring existence as a ghost, the ultimate demise of oblivion or a short walk into the great unknown on the other side of The Light. AFTERLIFE is a humorous yet tragic tale that forces everyone to rethink their postmortem prejudices. If you think life is frustrating, try death.
“Afterlife delivers a story crawling with heart, humor and hope. Packed with a cast of characters who surprise with insights, integrity and insults, this book made me more curious about life’s after-party. We can all hope that Guy’s vision can light the way, because we’ll be laughing and learning on that path while we wait for our turn at care that’s critical.” – Ron Seybold
