Beyond Dead  

dfw-jr-bsn1-cover-ebookAbout Beyond Dead:

Dead less than twenty-four hours, with a job that doesn’t pay, a fashion disaster for a uniform and more afterlife rules than she can shake a stick at, Bridget Sway thinks it’s as bad as it can get. And then she finds a dead ghost stuffed in her locker.

Since the police are desperate to arrest her for murder, Bridget’s new best friend convinces her the only way to save herself from an eternity in prison is to solve the murder themselves.

With a handsome parole officer watching her every move, an outlaw ghost befriending her and two persistent mediums demanding her attention, solving the murder is not quite as easy as it sounds. And when “murder” turns into “murders” Bridget needs to solve the case … before she becomes the next dead body stuffed in her locker.

Shadow’s Talent  

00328About Shadow’s Talent:

Shadow Hatcher is desperate to change his life.

Despite an unusually high aptitude for his dream career as an astronaut, he is an unlikely candidate in the eyes of most training schools due to his lowly birth in 23rd Century England’s divided society. Then Shadow witnesses a murder in the back lanes of his family’s farm, and lets the police record his memories to use as a witness testimony.

His bravery attracts the attention of society’s most powerful people, the Talented, whose links to the ruling class can make Shadow’s dream come true.

When his testimony results in the collapse of an illegal Dream-Morphine racket, Shadow is thrown into a strange new world with dangers that he is only dimly aware of. As he becomes more deeply involved in the world of the Talented, he must live with dark secrets and face constant dangers to prevent his family from paying the ultimate price for his success.

A price someone now seems intent on making them pay…

Author Bio:
Tommy Muncie has wanted to be so many things that he’s lost count, but still ended up writing about all of them. He creates future worlds and watches his characters destroy themselves as they follow their hopes and dreams from Earth to space and back. And just sometimes, they’re allowed moments of triumph.

Tommy’s ambitions through his twenties took him through more jobs than most sane people will admit to, and he settled for none of them until becoming a writer and a countryside ranger. Shadow’s Talent is his début novel and book one of The Talent Show series, four years in the making, and completed while doing volunteer work for the National Trust. Tommy’s ‘real world’ career has taken him from the slopes of Somerset to the south coasts, and he hopes for a long lifetime of outdoor graft and voracious typing combined.

Shadow is the daredevil the author wishes he could be. Or perhaps sometimes is.

A member of the Litreactor online writing community, Tommy is known for his workshop and competition critiquing. He lives on the south coast of England with his family and loves distance running, rock music and reading other indie authors.

But if the secrets that lay behind the walls of the Donovan home were ever exposed life would never be the same for anyone. When an unexpected visitor from Sophia’s past shows up, it forces her to come to terms with her suspicions. As she unravels the truth about the people closest to her, it quickly becomes clear that fighting to save her marriage won’t be nearly as important as fighting to save her life.

Author Bio:
While I have a fanciful imagination, I am a Capricorn—‘sure and steady’, and the obvious conflict leaves me jumbled. I have a computer, yes (invaluable), but I still jot down ideas on a scrap piece of paper, or a napkin in a restaurant. My imagination follows me wherever we go and sees so much more than meets the eye, and very often my husband will ask, ‘where are you now, baby?’
Because he knows I am off with Prince Breslyn, not slaying dragons, but petting them and taking them home. LOL
Yup, I love happy endings. Not saying some of the time I don’t kill off a person or two…because art does copy life, but when I do it makes me cry and I so don’t like to cry.
We have a daughter and her hubby has become a son, and when we get together all we do is laugh. I put some pics here because who we are as individuals, is always (I believe) a compilation of the closest people in our lives.
Stories fill my head all the time. Research brings them to life.
I have spent hours reading unpublished letters behind the scenes at Lord Byron’s home (Newstead Abbey), in England. I have walked through Castle Ruins in Scotland and learned about their history. I have traveled through Ireland and allowed myself to ‘feel’ the life in the Faery Mound and watched my daughter kiss the Blarney Stone…



Mindset Mastery  

IMG_1694About Mindset Mastery:

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to have everything they could ever want or need in life, all while others are left with merely the dreams of achieving those same things? Have you ever wondered that if someone else could live the life of their dreams – then why couldn’t you live the life of your dreams?

Do successful individuals have something you don’t? No.

Do successful individuals know something you don’t? Absolutely!

This extraordinary, practical and action-oriented book by Nicholas Dodge is going to show you exactly how to develop the proper mindset all successful individuals have in order to live the life you’ve always wanted to live.

Coming from past experiences with horrible mental and physical health, major financial struggles, sexual abuse and suicidal thoughts and tendencies, Nicholas Dodge will explain EXACTLY how he overcame his worst circumstances to live a life worth living, and how you can do the same for yourself.

If you find yourself….
*Battling issues with self-confidence
*Struggling with negative self-talk habits
*Lacking motivation and determination
*Failing to achieve your personal goals
….then a change in mindset is a MUST!

In his groundbreaking book Mindset Mastery, Nicholas Dodge shares with you his personal journey through developing a mastered mindset and busts the myth that you can’t be successful and free by challenging everything you’ve been told in life.

Unfortunately, people that remain with their flawed mindsets tend to stay that way for the rest of their lives, unless they address their issues and make it a point to assess them to generate success and freedom.

Fortunately, that is exactly what you will do with this remarkable experience. This book will help you:
*Tackle challenges and face problems you never thought possible.
*Construct your personal goals and positive affirmations.
*Develop a way of thinking that encourages a prosperous future.
*Improve self-confidence, mood and feelings.
*Become an alpha in a world filled with betas.
*Motivate yourself to reach you goals and maximum potential in life.
*Overcome negative energies that impact everyday thoughts or actions.
*Live an extravagant life filled with success and freedom.

Follow my advice and you too could live the life of your dreams.

Why settle for anything short of your greatest desires? What’s keeping you from being successful and free?

Author Bio:
After overcoming experiences of horrible mental and physical health, major financial struggles, sexual abuse and suicidal thoughts and tendencies, Nicholas grew up to overcome his situations to live a life of gratefulness, success and freedom.

Nicholas was arguably at rock bottom until he took the initiative to change the results of his circumstances to start living the life of his dreams. While a majority of the people today settle for a life less than that of their desires, Nicholas set out, made it happen, and will help you do the same for yourself.

He began his self-help journey at the age of 14 when he discovered his true passion was to help people overcome any and all obstacles standing in the way of them achieving their goals and dreams. All in all, by age 20 he has developed the ability – the proper mindset – to overcome negative energies to create his ideal life.

After impacting many in the small community he grew up in, Nicholas is now eager to spread his knowledge, strength and inspiration to a much larger group of individuals that are looking to get the most of their lives.



Madam President The Secret Presidency of Edith Wilson  

51ErnEbaDgL._SX329_BO12042032001About Madam President The Secret Presidency of Edith Wilson:

History Book Club Selection
Movie Rights Optioned by Storyline Entertainment
After President Woodrow Wilson suffered a paralyzing stroke in the fall of 1919, his wife, First Lady Edith Wilson, began to handle the day-to-day responsibilities of the Executive Office. Mrs. Wilson had had little formal education and had only been married to President Wilson for four years; yet, in the tenuous peace following the end of World War I, Mrs. Wilson dedicated herself to managing the office of the President, reading all correspondence intended for her bedridden husband. Though her Oval Office authority was acknowledged in Washington, D.C. circles at the time–one senator called her “the Presidentress who had fulfilled the dream of suffragettes by changing her title from First Lady to Acting First Man”–her legacy as “First Woman President” is now largely forgotten.

The Case of the Running Bag by Gene Poschman  

TheRunningBagCover1020aAbout The Case of the Running Bag by Gene Poschman:

An Accident or Attempted Murder?

It’s winter in San Francisco and Jonas Watcher wakes up on a floating dock under a pier of a wharf next to the bay. He’s beyond hangovers and the DTs and has no memory of how he ended up on the dock. As he climbs up a ladder, he is suddenly hit with a large object that forces him down, not onto the wooden dock but into the bay.

He struggles to stay alive using adrenalin and his reflexes. After he recovers, he finds he is the recipient of a substantial sum of money, a change of clothes, and a Colt forty-four. He finds a temporary place to sleep for the night, only to wake up entangled in a mystery with a femme fatale, a missing man, and a dead private detective.

The more he tries to extricate himself, the more entrenched he becomes; he uncovers blackmail, kidnapping, murder, and he must deal with the very rich. He has one dubious ally in the guise of an intelligent San Francisco police detective who has an agenda of his own.

It’s the nineteen thirties and Jonas Watcher must solve The Case of the Running Bag if he wants to stay alive.

Author Bio:
I am a native Californian who married my high school sweetheart. We are coming up on being married for 50 years; why she puts up with me is still a mystery. I have been a frustrated writer for most of my working career, having to settle for writing white papers and technical training manuals.

I have always been an avid watcher of film noir, mysteries, and other detective crime fiction as well as science fiction and fantasy. I read quite a bit, which would probably surprise a number of my teachers. I would have been a better reader earlier if Dick and Jane were detectives, or at least, a wizard and witch.

I grew up on a farm… boring. I have written numerous unpublished short stories and two novels, which shared the same fate, probably for good reason. I did create a political comic book, which has been self-published. To paraphrase some comedian, publishing is easy, making money from it is hard.

I now write light noir detective mysteries circa the 1930s. My current project is the Jonas Watcher Detective Adventure Mystery Series.

The rest is subject to change on my personal whim.
