Shadow of Wolves: A Kit Barker Novel by J.R. White by J.R. White

A tortured gunfighter. A Navajo outcast. – And the Creature whose claws would stain the stones of the Mojave red.
Flush with raw silver and ruled by a baron with an iron fist, the tiny mining outpost of Shank’s Point is under siege by a sinister evil.
When the rising sun reveals the claw-torn bodies littered among the rocks, John Swift-Runner calls on his old friend, a vagabond gunfighter, to stand with him against the slaughter he knows will come.
But as their band of misfits hunts for the creature on the burning sands of the Mojave, they stumble into a generations old mystery that goes beyond shamanic curses and into the bloodstained pages of legend.
Can the killing be stopped?
And can a tortured gunman like Kit Barker – with a terrible secret of his own – prevail against something as savage and eternal as the Beast?

About Welcome to D*ck n B*lls Tower! by Jeff Pearson

Tony Butterworth is beginning his six-month, work assignment deep in a wilderness teeming with predators. And what is he dragging in with him this year? A-tisket, a-tasket, an extra-full basket of torment and turbulence. As a veteran lookout observer, he lives alone in an isolated cabin and climbs a 100-foot fire tower daily to scan for and report wildfires. One of Tony’s more flirtatious tower neighbours, Muffy, who he secretly drools over, convinces him to keep a journal to help him maintain his sanity: who could have predicted that Pandora’s Box would explode with such dark but hysterical repercussions? Besides making a complete fool of himself while interacting with his female supervisor, Tony manically yo-yos and struggles to cope; he begrudgingly takes his daily medication but that doesn’t stop the incessant taunting from Mother or G-Zeus or one of G-Zeus’s lingering assassins. Through his obsessive journal entries, never meant for public consumption, Tony relates reams of madness, mayhem, and malevolence from his twisted and tortured past. And then there is legendary tower duo, D*ck n B*lls, another story altogether. Or is it?

The e-book will be on sale for 0.99 from February 23 – 28.

About The Girl from Cairo – A Memoir

This is a memoir covering the author’s life in Egypt, Canada and the United States between 1940-1963. It is about her childhood spent in trauma cowering from overhead bombing raids during WWII, the Israeli/Palestinian War of 1948 and the Suez Canal Crisis of 1956 which catapulted her to leave Egypt. It is a coming of age story composed of her education a Catholic Girls School in Cairo, her sexual awakening, her first love and her childhood daydreams of becoming a fashion designer in Manhattan, which she succeeds out of sheer determination after leaving Egypt, and journeying through Canada and the United States. The story creates a whole world bridging memory and narrative and has a sense of longevity, no so much with the number of years, but with the depth and range of experiences. The writer is an artist which brings to the page an astute eye for the meaning of belonging and identity as she shifts between her many selves. She casts a profound look into the Middle Eastern Culture both within ethnic minorities as well as within the local population through the lens of her mixed ethnicity–Armenian, British and Egyptian. She creates tension with her characters: her roguish, bon-vivant father who gambled away the family fortune and her strong-willed, fashionable mother. The author weaves her family story with compassion describing the ordinary lives of the people against an exotic and foreign backdrop.

Karolina Dalca, Dark Eyes by M. R. Noble

Blindsided by an attack that destroys her home and blamed for murder, Karolina Dalca, a half-vampire, escapes, only to plunge into the magical societies from which she was sheltered.

Betrayed by those around her, she abandons her dreams of becoming an investigator and flees, trusting only herself. Her police internship would never prove more useful. Hoofing it through the wilderness, she makes it to her university dorm, disheveled but delightfully deflowered.

Enter a full vampire: one wielding dark magic and a ride out of Canada. A fugitive from the law, Karo complies with his demands to escape, unsure whether his requests are bewitched. She vows to clear her name and avenge her mother’s death, but Karo’s family secrets aren’t so easily left behind.

“This book grabs you by the throat and does not let go! A fast paced, enthralling journey through a hidden world of vampires, werewolves, and other beings. I Highly recommend you acquire this book and hole up somewhere safe for the ride.”—Stuart Rutherford, actor from WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS

“Fans of Kim Harrison will be drawn into the imagery of Noble’s first book of the Dark Eyes series. In between bouts of fighting and the intensity of paranormal, dark fantasy, there are moments of comedy that make this series opener a real page-turner.”—Booklist.

About Dr Maya Protecting You Protecting Us from Infections and Illness

New York Times article “With All Eyes on COVID-19, Drug-Resistant Infection Crept in” has highlighted the problem that I have been warning about. This is the “Silent Pandemic in Tandem”, that will kill ten million people every year by 2050. Doctors, nurses, and healthcare workers’ lives are at risk, so I don’t think they will take the risk, knowing that the PPE does not offer any protection.

The overenthusiastic hand washing, sanitisers, masks, and companies are selling antiseptics claiming they “KILL” viruses, superbugs and fungus are the one I blame, not the stupid politicians. The latter imposed “Lockdown”, that ripped apart families, bankrupting business and nations.

Forty-two thousand years ago, our ancestors Neanderthal, who lived on earth for more than 300,000 years, suddenly disappeared. Until now, no one knows why? Humans have only lived for 200,000 years, and it looks as if the days are now numbered. Raising drug-resistant bacteria causing common infections of the bloodstream, urinary, gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts, will infect every human, including the greedy humans who cashed during the crisis. The bugs we cannot see will force us drastically alter the way we practice modern medicine if we don’t this will bring an end of the profession that was claimed to be “Nobel”.

You must empower yourself to make an informed decision about your health, and seek help early or avoid visiting healthcare centres when you must not.

Author Bio:
I worked as a trainer, assessor of doctors, nurses and medical students for almost thirty years as a physician in acute and intensive care in major hospitals in the UK. In 1996, some hospitals in “The National Health Service” (NHS) introduced “Pre-Printed Assessment Sheet”, to help junior doctors collect information, I challenged this and published a letter in a medical journal.

In 2003, I was asked to teach nurses to diagnose infections and prescribe antibiotics. After training two batches, I felt this was not safe and un-ethical. My concern was ignored, and nurses were licenced in 2006, by the health secretary to work as doctors, offer advice, prescribe drugs as doctors do.

I promised to protect humanity and patient care, so I made “Protected Disclosure” hoping the General Medical Council, The British Medical Association and the World Medical Association hoping they will protect patient care, but they did not. Not knowing what to do, I collected and compiled a list of presenting complaints and created MAYA (Medical Advice You. Access), a colour coded list of symptoms to help differentiate common from a serious illness. Patients who used my system loved this, but doctors, healthcare providers and even the people in power hated my method.

About A NEW WAY OF LIFE

Globalization can kill you. Is that an exaggeration?! Not at all.

COVID-19 was completely caused by globalization, because, with so much international travel, especially by planes, infectious diseases can spread fast and far. The next pandemic might be far worse than COVID-19.

In the past, without planes, the Black Death killed up to 60% of the population of Europe! That’s hundreds of times more than COVID-19! Imagine what it would be like to have a new virus similar to the Black Death, but with planes and globalization… This means death for you and your family, have no doubt.

This book explains how you can protect yourself and those you love, and not only from infectious diseases. If you act, YOU WILL PROUDLY BE THE SOLUTION TO THE MANY CRISES our deeply mad and unhealthy civilization is facing:

• You can be the solution to the cycle of economic crises where the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, banks steal from us, and inequality grows greater, while so many don’t even have decent food or healthcare…

• You can be the solution to the ecological crisis, including climate change! We pollute the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe… Climate change has started to kill hundreds of thousands through heat, flooding, hurricanes, a lack of food and water, which can lead to wars… The worst-case scenario could lead to human extinction, as it did 250 million years ago when 96% of species died because of climate change from volcanoes’ CO2 emissions.

• You can be the solution to other crises: police violence, overpopulation…

• You can be the solution to political corruption. Politicians pretend to care about what you think to get elected, but then really only care about what the richest push them to do through lobbying. Also, they almost started a nuclear war without our authorization! We live in a dangerous, false democracy…

There is an alternative system in which you can really be the solution to all these crises: future pandemics like COVID-19, climate change, economic crises… It sounds impossible? This book proves that it is possible based on referenced science and facts.

Protect Yourself and Those You Love. Be the Solution.

About Pipeline Diaries: Alberta Forever

You’ve heard of the madness of the pipeline! You’re curious about this world, the industry of boom and bust. Too much money and too loose morals create a perfect storm of wild, sad, and hilarious stories. Often called the Beethoven of books, Pipeline Diaries: Alberta Forever will satisfy all your questions, all your fantasies, and indulge all your darkest pleasures.

Ryan Wiersma turns his remarkable experiences in the pipeline world of Alberta into a haunting, often sad, and consistently hilarious story of what really happens out on the rigs. After purchasing a piece of land in Ecuador, a brash and introspective worker needs to finish one more season in the patch before he can build a house and lay on the beach while drinking Pina Coladas in the sun. The pipeline world of the Canadian prairies is home to the kind of mad, crazy and wild characters that thrive in the lawlessness it provides, like Mickey Makoy with his whore loving beer benders, Booby Mac and the angry pain of his divorce, and the destructive forces and people that only oil and gas can attract and, at times, even create. But beyond the excess, the most important element of the pipeline are the bonds and brotherhood created in the bitter, cold, and intense environment and it’s these connections that the narrator needs to rescue him.

In an endlessly inventive, poetic, tender, and funny prose, Ryan Wiersma lays bare the truth of the depression and brotherhood the pipeline inspires. Even in the hard, cruel world of the patch, there is the inevitable weakness of the human heart. With oil as their brick, beer as their cement, the boys take care of the boys.

Above all, remember the code of the pipeline: You Can’t Be A Pussy And A Pipeliner.

My name is Ryan Wiersma, I have traveled the world for most of my younger life, hitchhiking and daydreaming and drinking. I found myself in the small surf town in Ecuador called Montanita, and during a drunken wild night of gambling and negotiating bought a piece of land in paradise. But I needed to come up with the money to build my dream house. The purpose, the Dream! I'm from Alberta, Canada: the oil capital of the north. To the pipeline I went, and embarked on a journey through the wild world of oil and gas. To me it is beautiful, you get to be around some of the most extreme personalities out there, and I took that and wrote about them.

About Alaska Road Trip Adventure – 5 months exploring Alaska, Yukon, B.C., and Northwest Territories by RV…..

A fast moving and informative account of an RV Road Trip to Alaska, Yukon, B.C., and the Northwest Territories. The destination is one of the world’s last great wilderness areas, a region renowned for its spectacular mountains, abundant wildlife and stunning scenery. Along the way, the author and his wife experience this and so much more.

They expected Alaska to be a once in an lifetime experience, but had no idea at the time that the journey would also encompass a month living in a log cabin in the Yukon; driving the Dempster Highway, 458 miles (737kms) of gravel highway through spectacular wilderness to Inuvik in the Northwest Territories; crossing the Arctic Circle; paddling a kayak down a portion of the historic Yukon river, and flying by small plane to an Inuvialuit (Eskimo) community on the Arctic Coast, but it did and much more besides. They thought it would take about two months, ultimately it took almost five.

Whether you are an armchair traveler, or thinking of experiencing the trip for yourself, this book makes a great read and will provide an insight into what awaits those adventurous enough to head north to Alaska “The last frontier”.

About Rene Descartes Does Not Exist

Rene Descartes Does Not Exist peals with the undercurrent of plangent chimes in a forgotten gloaming… There persists a revelation which cannot be defined, but which is captured by the crude eyes of certain dolls. Within are Tsalalic, broken staircases which lead to nowhere, untidy, resistentialist galaxies of dark stars… A Ligottian antinovel, a surrealist literary criticism of House Of Leaves, Psalms Of The Silent, Fictional Observers, and Untidy Starving Shadows, it creaks and creeps… Suspirias susurrise among howling passages… The pages resonate with groaning undercurrents of masking things which are what they would not be, a mask for pandemonium… Within are phantasms, mirrors, burrowing universes… The unheimlich volume is a Borgesian unreality of lambent crookedness, a resistentialism of untidy tailor’s dummies which resonates with the eidolon of murmuring, garish laughter… It is crookedly peculiar…The words are upside-down, tenebrously untidy, a cosmic incantation, the tome a grimoire, a The King In Yellow of magick, a doppelganger… The manuscript tolls queer thoughts, things monstrous… vaguely, vacantly glimpsed… Unlighted candles migrate within That unheimlich volume, a Babel of lambent unreality which resonates with eidolons of laughter… A Mimicrying, metafictional criticism of House Of Leaves, The King In Yellow, Cosmicism, The Thing, and The Untidy Starving Shadows, the tome creaks and creeps… It resonates with twin mirrored Houses, untidy, unfamiliar shapes in the darkness… It is very strange; the words are clandestine, unreal, tenebrously untidy, as though… the work were hazy, a foggy, peculiar looking-glass- curious words that seemed to keep some secret, monstrous if one only knew.

Author Bio:
A.R. LaBaere is a publishing house which resides within the bizarre, the outlandish, and the Ligottian. Its focuses include Cosmicism, pessimism, the absurd, and the Weird. The author seeks to reproduce texts which deconstruct logic and enhance the Weird. A.R. LaBaere strives to disseminate literature to all readers.

Its next release shall be the epic The Abyss Laughs Book Two, a fiction. It is to be distributed to the public upon August Twenty-First, Two Thousand And Twenty-Two. The Abyss Laughs Book Two will be A.R. LaBaere’s second publication by author A.R. LaBaere.

The author’s Rene Descartes Does Not Exist will be incorporated into The Abyss Laughs Book Two, along with other works. A.R. LaBaere seeks to scribe a collapsing multiverse and paracosm in the completion of unreality.

The Abyss Laughs Book Two will combine literary criticism, pessimistic discourse, academia, and fiction. With Rene Descartes Does Not Exist, the novel shall explore Cosmicism, poesy, and allusion in a richer demesne.

Rene Descartes Does Not Exist is the inspiration of the epic novel, The Abyss Laughs. An antinovel of solipsism, Cosmicism, negligence, and illogic, Rene Descartes Does Not Exist does not exist.

The Abyss Laughs is currently being expanded to a million words. This cosmic horror opera is grown from a reality-bending tome, ever expanding.

Reality is a thin layer over something truly alien. The only kind turn of the cosmos may be the prevention of the human mind from comprehension of all its truths. The Old Ones are beneath that facade. They are those who were, are, and shall be, not amongst the familiar space and time known to humanity, but far outside the constraints of logic and reason. Entombed within our cosmos and without, They await the proper alignment of the stars, so that They may once again stalk the spaces between. The Old Ones cannot be comprehended by the human mind, for They exist in infinity beyond understanding.

These beings are served by religious sects devoted to their return to life, from the Brotherhood of Hastur to the Deep ones of Dagon and Hydra. Still yet more disastrous awaits the cult of Yog Sothoth, the All in One and One in All. Azathoth, Yog Sothoth, and Shub Niggurath are not Old Ones, but rather Outer Gods. When the music in the Court of Azathoth ceases, so too shall all things.

Beyond even the Old Ones lie the Outer Gods, beings who are to the Old Ones what the Old Ones are to the lesser species. These deities encompass all of space, time, and other fabrics of reality, and yet exist wholly outside of it. These deities were the first beings in existence, creating many of the Old Ones and one another long before the birth of reality.

An obscure horror author, Lovecraft, penned a supposedly fictional world of alien lore, prehuman nightmares, and inhuman races. For all of these terrors, the cosmos is not one of malevolence, but of stark indifference to any species. The Old Ones and Outer Gods are not cruel nor psychopathic; rather, Their psychologies and motivations are entirely beyond the comprehension of humanity.

Lovecraft wrote of their histories and mythologies in works disguised as fiction, creating a mythos of the supernatural, cosmic, and unknown. He recorded tales of prehistoric gods bubbling at the center of all infinity, and of partly human alien races the world over. His narrators live on, forever scarred by their forbidden knowledge as they await the End.

Presently, a concerned publishing agent investigates the mysteries of The Abyss Laughs, a self-referential work of cosmic horror in the vein of Lovecraft. The novel evokes inconsistent effects, from awe to derision at its pastiche. The novel’s narrative becomes the publisher’s own, as the characters and locations of cosmic horror seem to become reality. Narrative after narrative of the postmodern work become more obscure, unwinding the agent’s every sense of reality and reason. Nested within a complex narrative web of psychic visions and intertwined fates, The Abyss Laughs is no book.

In the apparently fictional work of cosmic horror authors previous, only a portion of truth is revealed. There are Outer Gods beyond the Outer Gods, and Outer Gods beyond this. With each revelation, logic and reason as we comprehend it fades into black seas of infinity, and the return of ultimate entropy draws nearer. This is the culmination of Lovecraft’s accounts of the vast cosmos beneath our own. The demented cultists have laid in wait for their gods, the Outer Gods have created Their spawn upon the Earth to walk amongst humanity, and the ancient texts have appeared to ordinary men. With a series of bizarre natural catastrophes, the oceans tumble into seismic upheaval. The minds of many are fevered by unnatural, maddening dreams.

Lovecraft wrote that the Old Ones would one day return, but never wrote of Their coming. At last, after untold aeons, the cosmos begins to align. The final rites are prepared, the prophecies come to fruition, and the foundations of reality begin to revert to their original state. And, beneath even this, something so incomprehensible as to be an informational void stirs.

The Abyss Laughs.

A.R. LaBaere is a lucubrant and intellectual of the night. The author is an oracle of the Old Ones, spreading madness and mayhem throughout the cosmos. Beyond the literary, LaBaere consumes theoretical physics, philosophy with an emphasis in nihilistic pessimism and antinatalism, and The Method of Loci. LaBaere strives to fictionalize and spelunk such topics into cosmic oddysseys and discourses.

The author’s inspirations include Thomas Ligotti, H.P. Lovecraft, Mark Z. Danielewski, Jon Padgett, Wilum Hopfrog Pugmire, David Searcy, Rasu Yong-Tugen, Baroness de Tristeombre, Brian Aldiss, Navidson Tudor, Jorge Luis Borge, and a library of others.

The author’s work has been hailed as being convoluted, opaque drivel, as a profound transmogrification of Cosmicism, as being peerlessly ambitious, unkempt, baffling, and rambling, as folderolical, as disillusioned, as disturbing, as atrabilious, and as being nonexistent.

A.R. LaBaere’s

The Abyss Laughs

An Introduction

Welcome, weary traveller, to your unexpected destination. I am A.R. LaBaere, Cosmic horror author and philosophizer. Here, dear reader, is the realm of the Old Ones. Here, you will find a brief history of the genre, author information, and an explanation of Cosmic horror.

Brace yourself, dear reader, for as Fredriech Nietzsche wisely warned: “If thou gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee.”

Who is A.R. LaBaere?
I am an avid Writer and reader of tales from beyond.I focus much of my effort upon analyzing existential crises in literature, film, and other fiction media. I have penned short stories and poems, along with my work-in-progress novel, The Abyss Laughs.I aspire to bring the obscure Cosmic horror into light, along with forgotten authors such as H.P. Lovecraft and Robert W. Chambers.

I aspire to share my passion for literature, storytelling, and all things unthinkable through fiction and nonfiction alike. As a nihilist and atheist, I share many of the views presented in the works of Lovecraft and others.

The Fear of the Unknown- and the Unknowable

Cosmic horror is a genre containing elements of horror, science fiction, and fantasy. The genre invokes the terror of Incomprehensible forces beyond humanity’s control.Rather than empowering characters and placing significance on human action, Cosmic horror places the focus on what lies beyond one’s frail egotism. Humanity constantly teeters on the brink of extinction, unable to find meaning or safety in a fundamentally indifferent cosmos. Godlike entities from other universes, the cults which honor them, ancient alien races, and madness brought on by quests for forbidden knowledge are staples of the genre.

What are the Origins of Cosmicism?
Cosmicism and its elements have existed since the dawn of literature.The supernatural is a critical ancestor; a necessary element of Cosmicism is the absurd contrast between unknowable forces and mundane life.

Edgar Allan Poe truly began the journey to modern Cosmicism, followed by Robert W. Chambers, author of The King in Yellow. Lovecraft truly completed the evolution, leaving behind thousands of pages and the Cthulhu Mythos, a universe which continues to be expanded upon by countless authors.

The Cthulhu Mythos

The Cthulhu Mythos is a fictional univrse created by H.P. Lovecraft.The mythos is composed of characters, locations, and events interconnected by the threat of ancient deities and forces. Commonly used characters in other works include alien races such as the Migo, the Elder Things, the Shoggoths, the Night Guants, and the Deep Ones.

Deities of the mythos include Cthulhu, the very source of humanity’s fear, Azathoth, who dwells in the center of our cosmos, Yog Sothoth, who is one with all of time and space, and Hastur, commonly known as the King in Yellow, an enigmatic entity which spreads through the reading of the eponymous play.

What Older and Modern Works are Cosmic?

The writings of Clark Ashton Smith, August Derleth, Ambrose Bierce, Algernon Blackwood, Robert E. Howard, and John W. Campbell often contain elements of the Cosmic; several of these authors have contributed to the Cthulhu Mythos.

Many modern works contain existential dilemas, nihilism, madness, and forces from beyond.John Carpenter’s Apocalypse Trilogy, the Amnesia series, the first two Alien films, The Evil Dead, Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining, the writings of Clive Barker, Shirley Jackson, Neil Gaiman, Ramsey Campbell, and many of Stephen King’s works involve incomprehensible forces from beyond.

Mission Statement

My goal is to provide my readers with quality literature in all areas, building on the aspirations of other authors, as well as creating new horizons. I will serve the Old Ones to the best of my ability, bringing madness to the Earth.I will show the world the power of authors long forgotten, ensuring that their efforts were not in vain. I will bring the Outer Gods ever closer to resurrection, until I am eaten along with the rest of humanity.

Solipsism- The belief that the thinker is the only person in existence. The existence of anything outside the mind cannot be proven; as best said by Rene Descartes, “I think; therefore, I am.”

Cosmicism- Horror genre involving the inevitanbility of mortality, doom, and fate. Revolutionized by Lovecraft, the genre involves forces beyond imagination with advanced strangulated delirium…

Post From Beyond: My Journey to Solipsism

My Journey to Cosmicism
We are alone- separated by the far gulfs of the mind. The black seas of infinity separate us from one another- each mind lies in the prison of impotency.
We do not have any real power. Why do we believe we have any hope?
The world is a place which is not our own. We believe ourselves to have ownership over the world and our lives, but we are under an influence beyond our comprehension.
Our lives are under the influence of something too indecipherable for rational thought. If we were to understand those forces, we would no longer be human.
What makes the human mind? That is a lingering enigma.
What mystery faces us today? What do we face today? What awful things lay in the awful voids between time and space? We cannot know until fate has us in its indifferent grip.
Fate stalks us, and today is one day nearer to that empty end… Alas! Such is our lot in time and space. We did not have the choice to exist- and yet here we are. This is the power of the unknown rulings of the universe. These things are the power of the beyond.
Welcome, dear readers, to a personal reflection. Today, we examine the life and times of yours truly. The adventure upon which we are about to embark… Is a dark one. This journey is not one to be taken lightly, for many reasons. We have much to discuss, and so little time. The mechanisms of time are sinister and in revolt; shadows from beyond infiltrate and warp our reality. The stars hide terrible secrets in the depths of far space. The chill of the night is unparalleled, but the day is infinite in terror as well.
Today, we must face the nightmare of the backstory- that most weighty and cumbersome literary burden. This is something which embodies character and curses- that awful mystery eventually revealed. The curse of a family, a legacy, or an amphibian mutation are all fair game. These things will eventually be revealed- by an old man, by a transformation, an ancient book, or an Outer God. These things are inevitable in the mystery of the Cthulhu Mythos.
My own journey through fate is something twisted and nonlinear. The confused workings of fate are something which are not to be cheated.
I have learned this lesson many times before- life often has many twists and turns, and these may be fatal. The awful and unrelenting nature of the world works against us. We are not simply people- we are animals lf the smallest kind. The awful nature of this revelation is something not to be shared… These things are dark and impossible.
My rambling path to cosmicism has been a long one. I admit it was not love at first sight- no, the road to Carcosa was much longer. It often takes time to find the ruins in the mountains of madness.
There are awful tragedies in life, and sometimes there are no answers. These things are inevitable, and sometimes incurable. I don’t know what to think about those spots of painful, shining lights sometimes. The wounds of the past can be impossible to heal.
I know well about the terrors of our existential comsmos, and the endless pondering of those questions- nihilism is often an awful and brooding thing, filled with the irreconcilable doom of meaninglessness. What are we to do if we are to except ultimate futility?
Change is an inevitable part of life, as always. One day, we will all die. I will be gone forever- when the signals of the brain die, so does the person. The awful reality of death is strong- we are given a few years of existence- and then, Alas!- we are gone. We are lost in the nightmare of religion and delusion- the nightmare of desperation. I know that I will stop existing, but I have difficulty accepting it. The awful reality of life is something I would not wish on anyone. The nature of existence is painful, and an awful
​I’ve had a lot of changes in my life – some good, most bad. One of the biggest changes was a complete one eighty. Who would think it? That can be the trouble with human nature- the Jekyll and Hyde duality.
​When I was much younger, I was frightened by a lot of things. Anything even slightly spooky, or even meant to be goofy but spooky nonetheless, could stick with me for weeks. Worse still, I was often petrified of the basement at night and sleeping in the dark. However, I was never afraid of monsters – the fear was just there.
​The dark is full of possibilities, as I would eventually find out. There are infinite possibilities, both good and bad.
​Before I had my realization about the wonderful world of horror, I looked down on it. I definitely didn’t loathe it, but I didn’t see it as a genre like fantasy or drama. The opinion largely came from my parents, who didn’t “get” it.
​While I have been surrounded by religion and narcissistic belief in human superiority and purpose, I have always leaned towards the nihilistic side of things. I often thought of nihilism as darkness and depression, I would eventually come to see it as freeing from unquestioned assumptions and obedience. The ordinary conceptions of life have never sat right with me.
When I was ten, my father bought me the complete fiction and poetry of Edgar Allan Poe. I was instantly taken by the gruesome, haunting tales. The poetry was exquisitely morose and melancholy, and the whole burned an impression forevermore.
These things are the foundation of something incredible and a part of who I am, and I am forever in the debt of those who have helped me along the way.
​That was before I really got into the darker side of fiction. I can’t trace it exactly, but I believe it continued with “The Phantom of the Opera,” my favorite book and musical from a young age. From there, I went on to A Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream, then bad slashers, and then classics.
John Carpenter’s The Thing was my first real film foray into the Lovecraftian. I was instantly taken by the film- it was a completely new experience, both visually, musically, and in the mind-expanding story and cosmic implications.
And yet, at the time, I did not fully appreciate the film. It would take several more years to truly appreciate all the film has to offer. The Thing remains a great influence on my work to this day.
Of course, I would soon enough arrive at my discovery of the infamous Lovecraft. That discovery would come nearly half a year later.
I was led to it inadvertently, through a series of articles online. My curiosity piqued, I read about the Cthulhu Mythos. And then it slipped from my mind… For a while. As with the Thing, it lay dormant, waiting to strike. That is the devious scheme of literature- it strives to survive however it can, in the minds of many.
Does literature possess an unknown life? Something of sentience? Something brilliant? What lies in the very essence of ink on the page? These thoughts are an essence of cosmicism- the thought of life completely alien to human perception. Can there be life so alien that we would not recognize it as life?
None of these thoughts would occur to me for years, until my perceptions were widened by the cosmic.
​The first time I read H. P. Lovecraft was not a cataclysmic event. Like a food which tastes fine the first time which will later become a favorite, it was another good story.
​All right, I’ll admit it – I didn’t finish the first time. I just sort of forgot and went on to other things less than halfway through. Like Lovecraft’s Old Ones, it was buried until the stars became right.
Times have changed, and we are able to appreciate the past more fully. Disasters, nightmares, possession, terror, and extraterrestrial invasion can happen in the span of a year. Lives are rethought, options reconsidered, and lives destroyed. We are often lost in the realities of unbearable upheaval. Such is the awful nature of our tiny world.
Such mysteries do not make for pleasant speculation, and do not inspire hope. They go unspoken, and yet are astoundingly common. These things remain just out of sight, and crawl and fester in the dark.
​Then, a year or so later, during a dull and unhappy period, I found it again. I gegan to read it on my ipod – my small, cramped ipod screen. The background was black and the lettering white. Ever since that time, it would always strike me as fitting that the traditional colors were reversed – the fiction of Lovecraft had a nearly nonsensical sweep which defied all the usual notions of sense and reality. At the Mountains of Madness was a long read, and thick in prose, plot, and scientific detail. It began with a desperate plea taking place after the main events – a plea not to send another research team to Antarctica. From there, the story described the findings of the first expedition team.
​The unreality of events nightmarish and full of foreshadowing. Slowly, the pieces came together. Relics of another time appeared, and I was drawn into the cold world.
It was night when I began, and my room was dark. Everything seemed perfect, as I prefer the dark.
​I had background on the Cthulhu Mythos, the collections of interconnecting characters, events, and places of Lovecraft’s stories. The references to other stories in Mountains of Madness created a powerful fascination.
​The language conveyed a sense of doom and inhuman legend through to the point but elegant, rich language. The lack of dialogue and character interaction created a world of surrealness and pain.​

About Practicing Meditation: How to Meditate to Reduce Stress, Improve Mental Health and Find Daily Inner Peace

Reduce your stress with only 10 minutes of meditation!

Do you know what meditation is? It is quite possible that you have heard of it and may even have heard of the benefits. However, unless you are properly taught how to meditate, you may never experience the many benefits that meditation provides. I have written this book so that beginners who don’t know anything about meditation can have all the information they need to meditate successfully and see improvements in their stress levels, their quality of life, and how they deal with their problems.

Many of your questions about mediation will be answered in this guide. It’s worth bearing in mind that I’ve worked with students all over the world. The questions covered with in the section are the most frequently asked questions and you’ll be given the answers you seek.

This book is a complete guide and does not expect you to have any previous experience. It teaches you what happens inside the body when you breathe correctly and helps you understand the process of emptying the mind of thoughts. You will find that your life will change if you simply follow the exercises provided and continue to meditate on a daily basis. It only takes a few minutes of your time but it is completely life changing.

So why is meditation so helpful and is the theory proven?

Over the course of the last twenty years, meditation has become streamlined. It is not simply an alternative way to relieve stress. It is effective because you learn to shut out the things that bother you and you learn to cope with your life from another aspect entirely. You no longer feel that you need to live up to the expectations of others. You learn to accept yourself and accept the changes that are inevitable within your life.

In fact, with the number of people now being treated with anti-stress medications, it is clear that other alternative methods of coping with stress are necessary. Those who meditate find that improvements begin within a couple of weeks, but the philosophy behind meditation lasts a lifetime. That means that they are better able to cope with problems when they happen, and that they suffer less from the effects of stress.

This book makes no assumptions that you have prior knowledge of meditation and thus takes you from the very basics through to the different types of meditation so that you can use this powerful exercise to improve your life beyond recognition. You will be happier, less stressed, and more capable of relating to the world around you. Your own personal development is in your hands, but once you realize why it works, you will be encouraged to keep up your regime of daily meditation, even if only for 10 to 15 minutes per day.

In this book you’ll discover…
What is meditation and why you should do it.

Why meditation works.

New breathing techniques.

Proper posture and its importance.

The answers to your most common questions and concerns.

What is a monkey mind?

How meditation can help you cope with COVID-19.

Perhaps even more relevant to today’s society, we have added a bonus chapter on how meditation can be a useful complementary treatment for the mental effects of COVID-19. COVID-19 doesn’t kill all of those who get it. However, it does cause a great deal of stress, which can be managed with the use of meditation. Read the bonus chapter to find out how!

Pick up your copy today and learn how meditation can change your life for the better – forever!

Author Bio:
Lyndon N. Smith has a strong interest in science and technology, and a particular fascination with developments in physics and engineering that can have potentially revolutionary effects on the way we live. He feels that scientific and technological developments of recent decades have been less dramatic than was expected, say, seventy years ago and that an investigation into why this is the case and what we can do about it is well overdue. His background includes degrees in physics, robotics and engineering, as well as 26 years of research experience in the UK (and USA), which has resulted in 180 technical papers, two books and the supervision of 20 PhDs. As well as being a professor at a major UK university, he is also something of a bibliophile; but has had a long-standing concern about the lack of accessibility of many science and technology related publications, in terms of the associated difficulties with public engagement with science, as well as reducing the likelihood of science having a strong and beneficial impact on society. He believes that one way to increase the accessibility of science is to employ an informal style, and to make liberal use of quotations and allusions to well-known figures from popular culture. This is what he has aimed to do with his new book. His intention is to make you wonder why we don’t hear more about how modern technologies can revolutionise our lives. He believes we need to spend more time and effort on looking to the future rather than agonising over the past. And he uses discussion of people and events from the past, as well as various predictions of the possible future, to throw light on the situation for science and technology, and what developments we might expect going forward. Lyndon lives in Central Somerset, with his wife and son.

About Dr Death

George Campbell is nearing the point of collapse, having stood guard throughout the night, his antique shotgun at the ready. Three escaped prisoners, who had attacked his home the day before, now lie dead in his front garden — a deterrent to other unwelcome visitors. With the power still out, and communication all but impossible, George holds out little hope of getting his dying wife the medical assistance she desperately needs.

Doctor Brian Angelo, a model prisoner with a dark past, sits patiently in his unlocked cell. For three days, since the authorities abandoned the prison, he has managed to avoid the mayhem that has erupted around him. The promised arrival of the army, to take control and supply much needed food and water, has yet to transpire. With hunger and thirst now the driving factors, Brian decides to take his chances on the outside.

Dr Death is a novelette from the Powerless Earth series. The story focuses on two characters from book one of the series, Reliance. If you have not already done so, I would recommend that you read Reliance first.

About Love Stories of Great Missionaries by Belle Brain and David Hosaflook

“In God’s arithmetic, one and one make more than two.” With charm, interest, and pithy sayings like this, the author tells stories about the romances of some of the most well-known missionaries in Christian history—Adoniram and Ann Judson, Robert and Mary Moffat, David and Mary Livingstone, James and Emily Gilmour, Francois and Christina Coillard, Henry Martyn and Lydia Grenfell.

These fascinating mini-biographies are classified not only by individual missionary, but also by various scenarios of seeking a spouse: while in the homeland, while serving on the mission field, enduring parental objections, attempting courtship through correspondence, handling unusual offers of marriage—even a “hope­less attachment” that did not end well.
Though a few hundred years old and despite some terminology and tradition today’s reader might find entertainingly odd, these stories are surprisingly refreshing, relevant, and helpful to ministry-minded Christians today, especially to missionary couples, college students, parents of missionaries, and singles contemplating love and marriage.

In the introduction and afterword, David Hosaflook evaluates the work and gives additional reflections on missions, singleness, romance, and marriage, from his own experiences as a missionary, husband, and father.
