I am so disappointed in myself. It has been almost a week and I have yet to go into the huge hole in the backyard. Have I become an adult? This is awful news. I am going to give myself a bit of grace and say it is because it’s been raining. We had to put a tarp over the hole so that it would get too wet. It’s sticky gross adobe mud down there so covering was a must. Still though, I had the chance and didn’t jump into the hole and shuffle around. When the pond is finished, I wonder if I will swim in it a bit. I really hope so.
Another Broken Wizard
by Colin Dodds

FREE for a limited time
Jim Monaghan really didn’t want to go back to Worcester, when sudden unemployment and his father’s surgery forced his hand. Drifting into a dubious ICU romance while he tends to his father, Jim seeks out his childhood best friend, Joe Rousseau, who has problems of his own. Joe’s in a feud with a local gang, and his plan to resolve the matter only makes things worse. Nonetheless, Jim follows his friend into Worcester nights defined by drugs, drink and violence. As the danger escalates, he makes a painful choice to try to save Joe. And then he has to live with the consequences.
A book about the threshold of childhood and adulthood, about straddling the expectations of a fading industrial home and the attenuated promise of an information economy, about reconciling the love for a friend with self preservation, Another Broken Wizard is, above all, a portrait of Worcester, Massachusetts.

Our Family’s Spirits: Stories Based on Real Paranormal Experiences
by Susan B. Lovejoy
FREE for a limited time
New England is an area rich in historical homes where one is bound to run into spirits that wander the halls or show up in the most unlikely places.
The stories in this collection came from actual paranormal events that either my family, friends, or I have experienced. A few stories are written more closely to what actually happened, and I took creative liberty with others.
Some of the stories include: a house known to the neighborhood kids as haunted, an animated bear with a mind of its own, an old woman from another era who only shows herself to the men in the house, a narrow escape in a cemetery, a former hospital where the young spirits wander about, and much more. Enjoy!
