Book Description
New inventions are wonderful, right? The way we do things is simplified and our lives are made easier. Do you think cell phones, texting, and tragic statistics are what Alexander Graham Bell had in mind, though, when he first introduced us to the telephone, when cell phone inventors dazzled us? Pros and cons to everything, right? In fictitious narrative short story and poetic form, the deadly negative consequences of cell phone texting is what this book is all about. Texting distractions disrupt, maim, and kill every day. Like a fatal attraction, sadly, society cannot ignore the dark side related to cell phone texting. Though occasionally humor is a part of the story, mostly, the author makes a profound matter of life and death point: TEXT SAFELY or bad things will happen!

Book Description
There is a new generation of rabbits living in the Bruneau
sand dune desert near Boise, Idaho. Miracles happen. Magic water and the new
digital frequency enable the rabbits to grow tall and speak perfect English.
Mr. Mayor, a flashy dressed six-feet-tall character, watches over his town and
residents of New Jack Rabbit City. When an egotistical Chicago hare gangster
named Caponey comes to town to drink up the magic water, grow big, and head
back to Chicago to rule the streets, Mr. Mayor must deal with him and the rest
of the South-Sider gang. A greedy cattle rancher and a couple cowboys stir up
trouble, too, when they drive a tanker in to "suck the magic spring
dry," so all the cows can become giant-size and bring in more profits. So it's
up to the Mayor and all of his helpers to save the day. Thanks to Abby, an
inquisitive eight year old, a human family stumbles across N.J.R.C., too. When
Abby leads her Uncle Mike, brother, Zach, and their two dogs, Eggy and Nasty,
to meet the Mayor, magical days and altered realities happen. They can't
believe what a difference a day makes! It's a wonderland tale, one for the
storybooks. Let the human family who lived the adventure share it with you.
Welcome to New Jack Rabbit City!
Henry, a dedicated antibody, goes from assignment to assignment within
human bodies and tries his best to save lives. Hypersensitive
individuals don't make it sometimes, though. Henry is tormented by a
casualty of the past, Marin, a teenager he liked. She got stung by a
bee and died. The war between allergens and antibodies took place
within Marin's body and Henry was there trying to persuade antibodies to
quit overreacting before it was too late. But they didn't listen. When
another hypersensitive young woman is about to lose her life, Henry
knows it's up to him to prevent the tragedy. "My story is about saving
lives before it's too late and increasing awareness regarding allergies,
asthma, and autoimmune afflictions. I'll do my best," says Henry.

On the Literary Road with a Writer
Book Description:
Percy Varrants writes books and poems. She shares
literary adventures/books from the past and this current story. One summer,
while promoting one of her latest novels at the Printers Row Lit Fest in
Chicago, she buys a book which then leads her to Jack Kerouac's classic novel,
On the Road. Unlike Kerouac, though, Percy travels mostly on the "stepping
stone sidewalks in her beloved town and down the imaginative avenues within the
neighborhoods of her heart and mind." Though the pursuit of happiness for
a writer is a tough journey, the author convinces readers that chasing the
dream is what life is all about. Percy inspires and motivates. She also makes
the right turns, hops on the literary paths before her and finds clarity and
satisfaction as a writer. Always sharing what she learns, the end of the book
is filled with pages of helpful links for other writers within her compiled
Best Top Ten Lists.
