Abigail has just started her second year at the Tarkana Witch Academy and is already up to her ears studying for Horrid Hexes and Awful Alchemy! Worse, Endera’s malevolent spellbook has its hooks in her, whispering in her ear to use its dark magic. Meanwhile, the entire school is talking about the Rubicus Prophecy; a sign has arrived that the chosen witchling is among them, the one who will one day break Odin’s curse over them. When an Orkadian warship arrives carrying troubling news, Abigail and her friend Hugo are swept into a new mystery after a young boy from the ship, Robert Barconian, asks for their help retrieving a missing item. Along with the former glitch-witch, Calla, the four friends end up deep in the catacombs beneath the Tarkana Fortress―a place where the draugar, the living dead, wander about. Abigail discovers there is more to the Rubicus Prophecy than anyone ever imagined. Can she stop it in time before she and her friends are destroyed? Filled with magical spells, spine-tingling ghosts, and visits from the Norse gods, The Rubicus Prophecy pits Abigail against a sinister power greater than anything she has ever imagined.

Determined to set things right, Abigail and Hugo set off for Jotunheim, the land of the giants, to find a weapon to restore the balance. All they have to do is track down the God of Thunder and convince Thor to turn his hammer over to them. When their former-friend-now-foe Robert Barconian arrives with a band of dwarves, intent on stopping them, Abigail and friends must unite to prevent a war that will destroy them all. But has Abigail made the biggest mistake of all by trusting in the wrong ally? Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Bookshop | Indiebound

This first Book is an adult Spiritual Thriller. It is appreciateively donated by ...
Title: Temple Dancer by Amy Weintraub
Genre: Spiritual Thriller | Pages: 300 | ISBN: 9780974738062 Release Date: September 2020 | Publisher: Tumamoc Press Synopsis: In a spiritual thriller that connects the lives of two presumably disconnected women, Temple Dancer burrows deep into the mirroring stories of both Wendy Rabin and Saraswati as they explore the divine connection. Set in India in 1997, and later at an ashram in Buckingham, Virginia in 2016, Temple Dancer begins when Wendy takes a spiritual pilgrimage to India following a painful divorce. On a crowded train in the midst of Wendy’s excursion, she meets Saraswati, an enigmatic older woman who claims to have been a temple dancer. The mysterious encounter between the two leaves Wendy with Saraswati’s diary and a request that she honor the profaned culture by sharing her story. Twenty years later, after having lost the diary’s translation, its inexplicable reappearance forces Wendy to face her difficult past. Her reading and meditation trigger flashbacks of her painful mistakes in the trance of love. 
ABOUT The AUTHOR Although I’m best known for my books and teachings on Yoga and mental health, Yoga for Depression (Broadway Books) and Yoga Skills for Therapists (W.W. Norton), my passion, ever-since I picked up a pencil in the second grade to write a book like the ones I loved (those Dana Sisters and Nancy Drew mystery series), was to write fiction. I grew up in Pittsburgh before it was green and beautiful. I read to find a brighter place in other worlds, and I wanted to write books that could meet that bleakness and transcend it. In pursuit of that desire, I returned to school, earning the Master of Fine Arts in literary fiction from Bennington College Writing Seminars in 2000.
I received the Allen Tate Memorial Award for the Short Story and was a finalist for the William Faulkner Award for the Novel and for the Heekin Group Foundation Fellowship for the novel-in-progress. I also received Second Place, in the Writer’s Digest Writing Competition for Literary Fiction. I began my love affair with yoga in the late 1980’s, after a successful career in television broadcasting. My own recovery (from chronic depression) led me to research and write books on yoga and mental health, and I became passionate about sharing what had helped me heal with others who suffered. In 2004, I founded the LifeForce Yoga® Healing Institute, which continues to train yoga teachers and health care providers in yoga practices appropriate in clinical and yoga therapy settings.

13 Days of Girls Camp:
A Romantic Comedy by Robbin J. Peterson
She’s stuck repeating Friday the 13th. He’s the blind-date she can’t escape. Amber Doria hasn’t forgiven her sister Kate for marrying her boyfriend—or for being her prettier, bossy older sister. Now, pregnant-and-content Kate has apparently made it her life mission to get Amber married, and she has her sights set on Jason Weston. When the blind date falls through, Amber thinks she’s in the clear. Unfortunately, Kate has other plans. Amber is enlisted as a last-minute nurse at church girls camp in Pontoosuc, Illinois, with Kate in charge. Endurance is Amber’s new philosophy, as she prepares for the longest week of her life. A tornado, a head-injury, and a guy who likes cat-memes set the stage for a re-occurring Friday the 13th Amber might never escape. Kate insists God cares about Amber’s love life, but Amber is fairly sure she’s just a lab-rat experiment gone wrong. AMAZON ~

My Friend, Merlin: Harry Potter meets The Godfather. A modern twist to the King Arthur legend...Generously donated by the author!
My Friend, Merlin – A Realistic Fantasy About Friends, Trust, and Transformation
Behind The Story From Pitch To Publish Spokane, Washington USA August 17, 2020 BOOK BLURB: Looking up I could see I had mere seconds before it was my turn to pitch my story to Brendan Deneen, the Editor for MacMillan Publishing behind the hit series The Walking Dead. I finished scribbling the last line and did the best to hide that I was still out of breath and shaking from running across Manhattan. To my horror I had thirty seconds before I was on my feet, giving the pitch I had just finished. After my pitch I looked at him, and he eyed me a moment before stating, “You could write that story poorly and it would still sell. When it’s ready I want it.” A wave of validation coursed through my whole body—he had just answered the two questions I had come for. Was I cut out for this, and is there something to the geography of genius? Is opportunity and excellence more accessible in certain places? Answered. Both of them. But now the next question. What matters more: motive, or outcome? It would all come down to execution. A golden premise on a silver platter. Would I blow this opportunity? Only time would tell. Four years later, after internalizing the reality that novel writing and screenwriting are converging, I employed the method and structure of both to arrive at a polished manuscript. The story’s development and pace surprised me, many of the components weaving themselves in a process of flow I can only express as miraculous. The emotional development and arc of all the characters impressed me with the sensation that this story has true potential. After all this time, I believe I have my answer. I’m proud of this one. It has legs, it can actually go somewhere.
