Designing my outdoor habitat for my guinea pigs is proving to be a lot more difficult than I had first thought. So far I have the three tree rounds in place, and a huge piece of driftwood. I have been dragging that piece of driftwood around with me from house to house for the past 20 years, yet still haven’t decided exactly what I want to do with yet. Seriously… 20 years. It is pretty big and very cool looking, but I haven’t really found a place for it in any of the homes I have lived in. I won’t give it up though, because it is so unique looking. I am trying to incorporate it into my guinea pigs play area, but I am not sure how yet. Some of you might be concerned that the pigs would chomp on it and destroy it, but it is so big that a herd of 50 piggies couldn’t destroy this thing. So far I have put it in about 7 different positions and nothing looks right. It’s like this thing is anti- Feng Shui or something.

It’s late 2009 and the Saints are undefeated on their way to the Super Bowl. Fresh off the Los Angeles red carpet of the movie she produced and starred in, vivacious Charlotte Reade heads to her family home in New Orleans for the funeral of Sassy, the woman who helped raise her mother.

When Sassy’s “adopted” twin daughters ask brainy and tenacious Charlotte to help them find their birth mother, she heads down a path that starts in a laundromat in the 1950’s and winds through costume experts and a burlesque tour before landing her on the infamous Bourbon Street.

Along the way, Charlotte reconnects to her own family history, uncovering clues to a family secret and the ghost who’s said to protect it. As her funeral trip extends through the Super Bowl and Mardi Gras, Charlotte struggles with her dedication to the career she worked so hard for and the intoxicating draw of the culture, romance and soul of the city she’s always wanted to call home.

Ambition (The Long Haul Book 1)
by Geoff North

Genre: Science Fiction

FREE for a limited time

During an age of dwindling energy resources and greedy corporate expansion, Earth receives a warning from a not too distant star system: We are aware of your existence. We will end you.

The colossal mining vessel Ambition undergoes a militarized refit and is sent to confront the alien threat of Pegasi 51. Catastrophic events along the way stretch a seventy year voyage into a seven century odyssey. All communication to and from home has been severed, and the civilization waiting ahead has remained ominously silent.

Captain Ly Sulafat, Ambition’s 30th – and likely last – commander, leads this final generation of weary travelers into a hostile star system, ill-prepared, and far too inexperienced to confront what awaits them.

The seven hundred year journey has ended. Time for war.

“An epic fictional Norse saga set in the ninth century, featuring royalty, repressed love, battles, and the raw appeal of untrammeled nature.” – Kirkus Reviews

France, 822 A.D.

Abriel Haraldsson is prey on the run.

He was injured in combat and taken by his men to the nearby monastery of Saint Philbert to be healed. With the best of intentions, the monks faked his death and took him away to a far-off island to be reconverted to their faith.

Believing the king to be dead, suitors from the north descended upon the island of Herius with the intent to marry Queen Kenna whose small kingdom had grown wealthy from its salt trade. The powerful warlord Turgeis — known for his prowess in battle and lust for blood — set his sights upon the queen.

When a messenger from afar returned with news that Abriel had survived his injuries, the warlord set to sea to ensure the king would never return.

Thus began the hunt.

The Oath of the Father is a Viking Age historical fiction novel written for young adults.
