I can take some heat.
But Maisie drives me crazy.
She’s smart-mouthed, sarcastic and argumentative.
Every time I lay eyes on her, I want to throw her over my shoulder and find the closest place to get my hands all over her curvy body.
There’s only one problem: this fire might be too hot for both of us.

The Elisha Pool by Michael Devaney  

About The Elisha Pool by Michael Devaney

After a century in dormant seclusion, the matching appendage to the infamous Monkey’s Paw has resurfaced. And once again, something sinister is afoot.

When a ninety-year-old Concord, Massachusetts resident named, Riley Stephenson, receives the other Monkey’s Paw as a birthday gift from an old friend, along with a strong warning to use his three wishes wisely, he wastes little time putting his good fortune to use. But haste and apathetic disregard of his friend’s advice quickly leads to ill-fated decisions with dire consequences.

On the heels of Mr. Stephenson’s first wish and subsequent disappearance, Finnegan Winters and Andria Walker—a rookie team of clandestine artifact collectors—are called in to track down Stephenson and the troublesome paw.

As the strange case unfolds, Finn and Andria find themselves involved in a head-spinning journey of veiled secrets and bizarre customs pointing to a mysterious healing pool hidden deep inside the jungles of the Amazon.

With the odds stacked against them and paltry information to work from, Finn and Andria must lean heavily on their novice instincts, but can they recover the paw before Stephenson makes his final wish and unleashes havoc of irreversible proportions?

Author Bio:
Jim Timonere was born in 1951 to a loving Italian, Catholic family. He was an athlete through high school and college then went to law school at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. Soon after he became a lawyer, Jim went home to Ashtabula, Ohio and entered politics where he became the Ashtabula City Solicitor, a job once held by Clarence Darrow.

In 1984, Jim moved to Florida and took up a law practice, disaster soon followed. Jim set up businesses for a family friend who used the businesses as cover for smuggling drugs. Sometime after leaving Florida, and owing Jim thousands of dollars he had borrowed “for the business”, the friend was caught with drugs and contraband in another state. As a part of the plea deal, the friend implicated Jim as part of his Florida operation.

Florida offered Jim a plea. He refused and took the case to trial. At trial, the state introduced no evidence of drugs or money Jim was to have received, as there was no such evidence. The case was instead a matter of whether Jim knew about the smuggling. The trial became a swearing contest between an admitted smuggler and a man who had no criminal record. But it was Florida at the height of the War on Drugs. The jury couldn’t believe a lawyer could be so blind, not even the juror who often took a nap while hearing the case.

Jim was convicted. He lost his family, his reputation and his license to practice law as he sat in prison for almost 7 years. “Christmas Presence”, a long lyrical poem which is Jim’s first published work, was written more than 25 years ago in a jail cell. The poem has traveled with Jim through all of this. “Christmas Presence” tells a moving story of abandoned people blessed by the presence of strangers at Christmas. Jim has been told some families read his poem together every year on Christmas Eve.

Jim was released in 1998 and was lucky to meet the love of his life, Jane. The Timoneres live in Ashtabula. Jim works as a paralegal in Jane’s Jefferson, Ohio law practice. Between them, Jim and Jane have six children and ten grandchildren. They like to travel when they can take time away from Jane’s busy practice and hope one day to retire to Lake Tahoe.



Inspired by Art: Rise to Power  

About Inspired by Art: Rise to Power

Inspired by Art: Rise to Power is a collection of art throughout the ages, around the story of David. This volume focuses on the decline of the House of Saul and David’s rise to the throne.

These amazing sculptures, paintings, etchings, and manuscripts inspired the author to write The David Chronicles, a series of three volumes, the first of which is Rise to Power, where she imagines the decline of the House of Saul and the rise of David. Besides being an artist and having worked as an architect, she taught art history, and this collection served as the basis for a reserch course analyzing the contrasts in viewpoints around the biblical story.

This collection is arranged not by artist, nor by artistic style or era, but rather by the story moment-by-moment, blow-by-blow, as imagined by various artists. Rembrandt, Ivan Schwebel, James Tissot, Rubens, William Blake, Gustave Doré, and Vallotton, to name but a few.

Taldra: Science Fiction Adventures by Duane Simolke  

About Taldra: Science Fiction Adventures by Duane Simolke

Degranon: A Science Fiction Adventure flings an Iroquois family into a battle across time and space.

In an alternate reality, Earth is the planet Valchondria. No illness exists, gay marriage is legal, and everyone is a person of color. However, the Maintainers carefully monitor everyone’s speech, actions, and weight. The Maintainers also force so-called “colorsighted” people to hide their ability to see in color.

The Iroquois scientist Taldra thinks of her twin gay sons as the hope for Valchondria’s future, but one of them becomes entangled in the cult of Degranon, while the other becomes stranded on the other side of a doorway through time. Can they find their way home and help Taldra save their world?

Winner, StoneWall Society Pride in the Arts Award.

“A thought provoking and fun sci-fi read.” —Blogger Girls

In Sons of Taldra: A Science Fiction Adventure, alien shapeshifters want to feed on humanity. Taldra again relies on her sons to help protect Valchondria. The Maintainers still hold dark secrets that might pose an even greater threat than the invaders. World events and Native American storytelling inspired this sequel to Degranon.

“The most intriguing aspect of the story is controlled by emotion as relatable characters grow and brave it all together, selflessly helping each other.” -Enas Reviews
