About Forgotten Valor by Richard Thomas Lane

An untested lieutenant. An unwinnable war. An impossible choice that could tear his platoon apart. Korea, 1950. Lt. Jonas Stuyvesant’s privileged upbringing hadn’t prepared him for the hardships of war. But when North Korea launches a surprise attack, he and his ragtag platoon suddenly find themselves on the front lines of a war not even Washington expected. And instead of North Korean peasants armed with pitchforks, Jonas and his fellow soldiers find themselves up against armored Soviet tanks and battle-tested hardened soldiers.

Outgunned and outnumbered, his platoon retreats from Osan through Taejon on down the whole length of the Korean Peninsula until their backs are pressed against the sea. As the war-weary troops hunker in for a final stand, a twist of fate gives Jonas a chance to leave the deadly frontline far behind. Before their attackers close in, Jonas must make an impossible choice: leave his brothers-in-arms facing the enemy alone or sacrifice everything to stand by their side to the bitter end.

About Wildfire Weeds

Willow and Spruce Wilder have been homesteading in rural Mendocino County in Northern California for decades. They raised their two children in the home that they built with their own hands. They financed their lives with the help of a crop of marijuana that allowed them to work at home, tend their gardens, and dive into the practices of land-based connectivity. With their children grown, the Wilders live a semi-retired lifestyle on their ridge top property, looking over the idyllic countryside of Redwood Valley. Wild animals weave their way through the Wilders homestead, and a small herd of domestic animals enjoys their pastoral residence with Willow and Spruce tending to their needs.
October 2017 comes to the small farm. We intimately relate with the Wilders for a week in their lives as they bring in their mature flowering marijuana plants: we meet the family members involved in the illicit substances business and we meet the crew that will support them in getting their product to market. All seems fairly normal, except that the Wilders come to decide that with the threat of legalization looming over them, this will be their final weed harvest. They discuss the changes in economics from within the pot industry. Looking back on a lifetime of pot cultivation, the Wilders reflect on the trade that has sustained them.

Environmentally savvy, the Wilders speak to the climate change elephant in the room regularly throughout the novel. With awareness, the characters avidly debate the factors that have contributed to shifting weather patterns, erosion, and the growing threat of fire danger. We meet the Wilders as they prepare their homesite to be a more fire defensible space, in the light of recent close calls. Conscious of the fire ecology of the land, the Wilders move forward with their preparations while exploring the connection between fire management and California landscapes. We follow them through their journeys of celebrating and protecting the land that they have lived on, stewarded, and received their sustenance from throughout “Wildfire Weeds.” As the week comes to a close, the Wilders encounter firsthand the wildfires that they have been fearing. Readers experience the perils of evacuation as a firestorm comes to the Wilder home.

“Wildfire Weeds” is a novel of very recent historical fiction. The wildfires that are described actually happened, and the author lost her home and neighborhood in the fires described in the narrative. Captivatingly honest and heart wrenchingly provocative, “Wildfire Weeds” delivers a cli-fi thriller set amidst the rootedness of the prose of a place. Combining the hardships of economic loss and environmental collapse, Mori Natura delivers a novel that peers through the lens of Northern California’s homesteaders with fierce acuity.

Author Bio:
I aim to create stories that reflect the magnitude of the times we’re living in as modern humans. My narratives grapple with the complex juxtaposition of living in the world we have been given and creating the world where we want to live, simultaneously.

My debut novel, “Wildfire Weeds,” explores the themes of wildfire ecology, sustainability, and climate change within the setting of a pot farm in Northern California. Future novels will further explore cli-fi (climate fiction) themes, while delivering whimsical delights, hopeful solutions, and optimistic resolutions.

I’m birthing a unique style of creative prose which tempers the intensity of current environmental upheaval by offering thoughtful, playful, and magical word-craft to uplift, enlighten, and enchant!

About The Storm by K.C. Crowne

An escape is all I need.
Until the goddess shows up.

Fortune brought her to back to the Colorado mountains.

Now, she can’t break free.
Not from the storm.
My cabin.
Or the attraction neither of us can ignore.

She needs my protection.
I need my hands on her.

She has become my obsession, but if I tell her about the storm brewing inside me….
I could lose the only thing that matters.

About Two Times the Mountain Men

Writer’s block. A critical deadline. A blizzard and a couple of dangerous escaped fugitives on the loose. What else could go wrong?

Try being forcibly removed from my rental cabin by a couple of mouth-droppingly sexy men from the ranger patrol, insisting it was for my own good. Own-good my ass! I had work to do and they were seriously messing with my timeline. I could handle myself, thank you very much.

However, what I felt to be an outrageous violation of my rights seems to be turning into just what I may have needed when the three of us become snowed in and we only have each other to keep ourselves entertained, spiking the creative juices in me to an all-time high.

The problem is that our situation is only temporary, and they’ve been very clear they’re not into the whole relationship thing. I just need to keep emotions out of it and use them for inspiration–sadly that’s easier said than done…

About Water Dreams, Love’s Siren Song Book 1 by Katherine Eddinger Smits

Water-phobic Nik discovers mermaids and mermen plan to make her a lab experiment. They can’t take no for an answer and will go to any lengths to get what they need.

In the small Florida town of Tarpon Springs, Greek-American Nik Aronopulos avoids water. She never goes to the beach and shuns restaurants with views of the Gulf of Mexico. So, why would merfolk want to study her? When she’s told it’s her ability to stay out of water that interests them, she’s stunned. There’s nothing special about her… or so she thinks.

Bas is the gorgeous, dark-haired, infuriatingly arrogant merman tasked with obtaining Nik’s cooperation. He needs her to help his people overcome their greatest weakness—the need to rejuvenate in the Gulf so they won’t dehydrate and die. Although they can shapeshift to look like humans and have advantages over land dwellers, their dependence on water keeps them from freedom. There’s just one problem – the girl he’s meant to capture is hooking his heart.

When Bas is shot by a bullet meant for Nik, she must face her greatest fear to help him. Her decision plunges her into a desperate journey where her desire for self-preservation is weighed against her growing feelings for this merman who once meant her harm and what this might mean for all of them.

About Not a Choice: The Biology You Don’t Know about Sex and Gender by PJ Paulson

FREE Monday September 30 – Wednesday October 2, 2019
•Did you know that a woman’s brain is structured differently from a man’s brain? They also function differently.
•Did you know that a person’s genetic sex and “physical equipment” can contradict one another?
•If XX is female and XY is male, what is XXY? What is XYY? How about XO? Or XXXX? Yes, these are real combinations of sex chromosomes. They occur naturally.
•What if a female fetus is exposed to chemicals that mimic male hormones?
•What happens to a male fetus if he has insufficient male hormones as an embryo?
Answers to these questions and more (in plain English) are why you need to read this book! It’s a short read of 20 – 30 minutes.

Genetic sex has more possible configurations than the binary two that you’ve been taught. Did you know that the brain is differentiated between female and male? Multiple possible configurations of sex chromosomes combined with a range of female-male brain development, plus fetal exposure to hormones or chemicals create a much more complex path to biological sex and gender than you know!

This explains the differences not only between female and male, but also the ranges of femaleness-maleness in the brain that form the biological basis for LGBTQ+I.

This is a very short read explaining in simple, easy-to-understand language the biological complexities of sex and gender – which in reality are much more varied than the binary states we’ve been taught. After a basic overview of the genetics of female and male (and variations on those), it discusses known differences between men’s and women’s brain structure and function. Those differences drive each gender’s strengths and preferences – some examples are provided. Then it explains the biology of becoming female or male in the womb, and the effects of hormones or chemicals on our development as a fetus. The result makes us female, male, or a combination with some of each. This is a very basic easy-to-understand discussion, not delving deep into technical details.

Author Bio:
Living in eastern Colorado on high prairie within sight of the distant mountains, normally I write about what I know. Life in eastern Colorado. Stillness and peace, sunshine, singing birds. Wind that will blow a bale of hay out of your grasp, or send a large water tank two miles through fields and over fences. Getting lost in a blizzard in my own field. Bubonic plague (ye olde Black Death!) that still exists around here – yes, I've personally watched it progress across the land, killing off prairie dogs as it goes. I've written about a year in which my life fell apart, and I first moved out here with the horses and cows, and no modern conveniences (no power, no plumbing, no heat, and dealing with burglars for which the sheriff deputies told me to carry a gun). That hiatus from the world in my own sanctuary allowed me to heal in multiple ways, communing with Nature until I could bounce back and get a new job. I've written about what it takes to make a good relationship – what ingredients to consider when weighing a date or potential partner.

Here, I've broken the "write what you know" rule. I'm doing something new, and was told I gain charisma, exhibit passion, and show fire in my eyes when I talk about it. At first, my confidence in forging ahead along an unknown path was fragile. Yet, I felt I must take that path, and here's why.

Two months ago, my day job was eliminated. Freedom from seventeen years in an unhealthy work environment has allowed parts of my personality to revive – I smile more, feel more freedom to shape my world, am happier, and feel twenty years younger. I engage more with the rest of the world. It appears a bit of activist is (re)surfacing.

Recent events bubbled up a previous idea to the top of my writing list, and this book is the result. My hope, beyond educating the general public, is that becoming informed will help non-LGBTQ people to become more understanding of others, and allow LGBTQ people to feel more comfortable being themselves.

Enjoy your day, and help someone else to enjoy theirs!

About Passionate Oversights by Charles W. Massie

This is a true story of seduction and corruption. All the events occurred in the town of Burkesville, a small farming community in South Central Kentucky.

Charlie Mason is a happy, retired gentleman living in upstate New York; one of the snowiest parts of the nation. He yearns to move to a warmer climate such as Tennessee or Georgia. A romantic relationship in his life would be nice also.

He meets a woman on the social media platform Craig’s list, who promises to be everything he desires. She is a beautiful redhead; a business owner who is smart, funny and vibrant. Her name is Patricia. Her friends call her Patriche and after many email and phone conversations, she invites him to visit her at her home in Kentucky.

He takes a chance and travels by bus to her location. Their first meeting is absolutely magic. Charlie has always had a penchant for redheads and Patriche is gorgeous. She owns a horse farm and is part owner of a construction company.

Overall, Charlie is impressed by her industrious nature. They seem to have so many things in common, including the fact that she is originally from upstate New York. Charlie believes he may have met his soul-mate. Their days are filled with love and laughter as Patriche shows Charlie the local sites.

But the real fireworks happen in the bedroom.

Even though neither of them are ‘spring chickens’, their sexual responses to each other can rival couples half their age. Charlie and Patriche decide to travel to upstate New York in order to pick up their various possessions, visit friends and return to Kentucky.

Their is only one problem. This lady is a deadly Black Widow in disguise.

Through their nightly conversations, Patriche discloses several events of her past that shock Charlie. She was responsible for the death of her oldest daughter, she is estranged from her children, she had her ex-husband deported to Canada, and her last lover put a shotgun in his mouth and blew his brains out.

The story now becomes a painful voyage into perdition. Suffering at the hands of a sadistic lover is only the beginning. Patriche has Charlie arrested for a heinous crime for which he is innocent. While he is incarcerated, Patriche takes her possessions, as well as Charlie’s, and moves back to upstate New York.

Charlie is sentenced to a 5 year term in Federal prison. Physical and emotional abuse from a corrupt judicial system could possibly lead to his death. In the face of overwhelming odds, Charlie fights to save his life, his honor, and his sanity. Throughout this journey, the reader will come to see how one man used every single ounce of his being to survive.

The Passionate Oversights offers a glimpse of domestic abuse from the male point of view and is a ‘must read’ for anyone considering an Internet-Based relationship.
