Here’s your wakeup call!
Racial turmoil seems to be simmering again in the US as of late. I put the blame squarely on the media and the way they slant the stories in a way that will incite the most emotion from their audience. Add to that, celebrities and civil rights activists jumping on the bandwagon and what you have is a powder keg of hatred, ready to explode. Continue reading Here’s your wakeup call!

A Kitchen Remodel on a Tight Budget
I love watching shows on HGTV and seeing photos online of other people’s kitchen remodels. Most of them are not only functional but beautiful as well, but as you probably know, all that beauty comes with a huge price tag. I personally, don’t have upwards of $30,000 to plunk down on a kitchen remodel and I doubt you do either, otherwise why would you be reading this article?
Here’s what the masses don’t want you to know. Your kitchen remodel can be done for less, way less. The key is, you have to be willing to think outside the box a little bit and you must be willing to do much of the work yourself. Think of labor as the most expensive part of your remodel, the more you can do yourself the better. Continue reading A Kitchen Remodel on a Tight Budget
Book Excerpt-An Imperfect World by Lyoness Bradley
The year is 1978 and Court Ordered School desegregation doesn’t sound like such a big deal to 17 year old Leigh Webster, but then again maybe she is just too young to realize the social and political firestorm that is just igniting in her community.
Leigh’s relatively sheltered life with extremely overbearing parents is about to take a radical turn. When Leigh meets attractive and smart desegregation student Chris Logan, she is attracted to him right away, but with social tensions running high, can they risk a relationship? A touching story about love, hate and every emotion in between. Continue reading Book Excerpt-An Imperfect World by Lyoness Bradley
Respect
How do you feel about respect? When did this basic courtesy seemingly disappear from the once great, United States of America? It pains me to read news articles lately because the media has taken this lack of respect that is running rampant in our country and made it all about race. I’m sorry, I know you think it’s all about you, but really it’s not, everyone is suffering from this latest epidemic and I think our shift in values away from families in the US has caused it.

Book Excerpt-Blood, Sweat and Fears
Chilly winter nights are the perfect time to curl up with a good book. Kingsmuir Press has many wonderful books, to delight just about any reader on your Christmas list. We have everything from charming romances to action filled science fiction books. Today we are featuring an excerpt from Jean Marie Stanberry’s latest work, “Blood, Sweat and Fears”.
“Blood, Sweat and Fears” is an adventure of sorts. It follows the life of a young figure skater Jenna Bruce. Jenna seems to be set up for failure by her own parents when she is shipped off to Paris to skate in an ice show, all the while masquerading as an adult when really she is a minor, just 15 years old.
When Alexander, a Russian co-worker with his own agenda begins sexually harassing her, no one in the company takes it seriously. Jenna is forced to work side by side with a man she eventually begins to fear, in the meantime all the while he has infiltrated the rest of the cast with lies and everyone there is soon convinced they are lovers.
No one can anticipate how quickly Alexander’s passion will deteriorate into obsession and his desperation will escalate into a grim web of deception and violence.

Enough Already!
As a writer I am also an avid reader and since the very beginning of the incidents in Ferguson, I have read just about every article published on the subject. I am beginning to be sickened by the amount of people who are putting their two cents worth in, just for the sake of doing so, without any firsthand knowledge of Ferguson, police work or any working knowledge of the subject in general. Many have labeled Michael Brown a thug and Darren Wilson a racist killer. Neither of these labels will help anyone to understand the situation in question, but I guess if labeling people in that way makes you feel better about yourself, then you just do what you need to do.
