Running ...
Marc woke suddenly. It was now a normal occurrence for his eyes to flash open three or four times a night, his body shaking, his mind crawling with the images of the nightmares that wouldn’t leave him alone - even after sunrise. Rolling out of bed, Marc kicked the sheets away from his feet and scratched the tangles in his hair. He needed a ( Read more... ) -

The Next Big Thing!
What if you’d been on the committee that made the decision to publish Harry Potter? The Hunger Games? Even Twilight? What would you have said? A resounding yes? A hearty no?

Shadows in the Spotlight needs your help!
A message from Shauna Brock (vegawritersSo it hit me the other day, that the message isn’t getting out.

Where were the feminists when I was going through what I was going through in school? Where were they when I told people what was going on and no one listened? That was my mindset.

From Jared's Personal Journal - Given Guidance
Sitting here on a tour bus in 1989, I can say with confidence that there are a lot of things I regret in my life. The eternal optimists say that regret is not worth the energy we expend on it, but that’s bullshit. We do things we regret, that is part of being human.
