Some time ago I wrote a review of a book that had been sent to me by an author I’d met in an online writer’s group. It wasn’t a rave review, nor was it a scathing review, but I did point out that there were some problems with the plot and some of the writing

AbsolutionBy Susan FleetISBN: 978-1-4357-0841-9Pub. 2008, Lulu & Kindle This brutal, dark and explicit novel has a compelling drive to the third-person narrative that makes it difficult to stop reading. In part, I suspect, readers may be drawn on by an almost irresistible desire to learn how much further the author is willing to go. Set

A Frenchman whose arms and legs were amputated swam across the English Channel. Philippe Croizon used specially designed leg prostheses that have flippers attached, and made the swim in just over 13 hours. Wow, talk about overcoming life’s adversities. A 14-year old high school student in Raleigh N.C. said her school should not have kicked
