• Little Boy Lost: I Don't Know Where I'm Going, But I'm On My Way. MyBipolar Disorder Memoir

    Check it out here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01I78ET1W/ Clive Webb was born in 1965, in the county of Essex, United Kingdom. He is a first time author, and "Little Boy Lost" has been written and self published, mainly from an iPad. He also has not had any professional help from an editor. He admits that he has never liked writing, but wanted to write his memoirs, and leave it as raw and down to earth as it could be. This story is heartfelt, sad, funny, and sometimes devastating. It is also shockingly honest. Clive goes back to when he was a little boy, and tells us of the traumatic experiences, which he encountered when he was six years old. Clive also speaks of how he is trying to piece together the jigsaw puzzle, which he describes as his life. In 2015 he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, which puts a lot of pieces of the puzzle in place. He now can see the picture more clearly. He was told his father suffered from depression, which ended in tragedy. But now the picture is more clear, he knows that it wasn't just depression alone. Clive can see a strong resemblance to the actions of his father, and himself. But what is prominent by the very existence of this book is hope. Clive Webb has said, his mission is to reach out to others, whether they suffer from a mental health disorder or not. He wants to tell them they are not alone on this roller coaster ride called bipolar disorder. One reviewer has said... Clive's story is similar to hers, she also said, this book is funny, sad, and from the heart. But more importantly, it gave her comfort. Warning there is some offensive language in this book.

  • The Invasive

    Check it out here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01I6449Q2/ Bishop is trapped deep inside Montana’s Apex Valley along with his injured wife, a shotgun-wielding stranger named Colbrick, and a sneaking suspicion he's never making it back to Chicago. Things no man has seen before haunt the woods. Strange animal species creep behind pine trees, some of them with flashing red tags that blink faster and faster. Giant birds mimic the sound of humans and lord over the sky. Leaf-shaped creatures attack anything that moves and flash vivid colors across their glistening backs. As Bishop and his companions scramble across the Montana wilderness, they find human remains and animal carcasses littering the woods. The small town of Elmore is empty, the windows broken and streaked with blood. Trout Bridge—their only way out—is blocked by abandoned cars, none that were inbound. With the strange animals species closing in, Bishop realizes his group must take a stand. He’s got a plan, and maybe they've got one last shot before the invasive species spread to the rest of the U.S. Readmore

  • Pop Culture Warned Us About Donald Trump

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE New York, NY - October 19, 2016: The National Memo Releases "Pop Culture Warned Us About Donald Trump" as Free Ebook From The National Memo comes the indispensable investigation of the Donald Trump phenomenon - and the shocking truth about why we should have seen this coming. This is the essential read of the election season, the only book that explains why we’re now living in a political horror movie. "When one of our wittiest writers, Eric Kleefeld, informed me that Trump was really just The Penguin from the old Batman TV series, I asked him to write a post -- and only realized later that his insight explained why our political nightmare feels so weirdly familiar," said editor-in-chief Joe Conason. “Pop culture really did warn us about Donald Trump.” Years and even decades ahead of political pundits, some of our most talented artists and entertainers told us -- via TV shows, horror movies, satirical books, and comics often reflecting on Trump himself -- that such a vulgar authoritarian would attempt to rule us someday. With examples ranging from Black Mirror to A Nightmare on Elm Street, from Stephen King to Mad magazine, Pop Culture Warned Us About Donald Trump deftly combines deep appreciation for modern icons and imagery with sharp political analysis -- plus plenty of video and wonderful illustrations. Today’s atmosphere of violence, hatred, and prejudice is perfectly suited to boost the candidacy of the man loudly fanning the flames. Yes, pop culture sounded the alarm long ago. While there’s still hope, now it's up to us to listen -- and act. For the free download, go to Trumpbook.nationalmemo.com ### About The National Memo Created and edited by veteran journalist Joe Conason, The National Memo is a political newsletter and website that combines the spirit of investigative journalism with new technology and ideas.

But he’s about to take a journey to a far more distant place, one that he could not have imagined. Along with Derval, John will find himself in an ancient Celtic realm, where a Viking attack begs to be avenged and a fantastic—and sometimes terrifying—adventure awaits . . .

The Raid on Troy (The Orfeo Saga Book 7)



https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZYK6M2Z/     

 The Greek raid on Troy is chronicled in the Iliad and the Odyssey. These poems are pillars of ancient literature and continue to be carefully studied. Homer, who lived in the 8th or 7th century BC, is credited as the author. The actual conflict has been dated from 1260-1180 BC or even earlier. The question is, how close is Homer’s account to real history?

In the Orfeo Saga volume seven there are some familiar characters from Homer. Their motivations, as well as their history, can be radically different. Memnon is a self-made man and a petty king who craves the fabled gold of Troy. His brother Menas is king of Sparta. They assemble a coalition to sack the city. Telemon, not eager to join the expedition, is moved to act after his daughter Elena is taken. He seizes the city of Mycenae and goes to Troy. Odysees might not be as clever or brave as the man described in Homer, but he joins the expedition out of greed. He soon meets Orfeo’s son, who is in search of his first real adventure. Orfeo is on the Trojan side, and has to face the assembled military might of Greece as well as Odysees cunning plans. The Greeks have Ajax, who they count on to defeat any foe in single combat. Can Telemon - now an old man - defeat the greatest Greek warrior and recover his daughter? 

The Raid on Troy might not be any closer to real history than the ancient poems, but it does offer insights into what might form the basis of the stories.
