Why are women mean to each other?

 Fresh off of playing another series of live shows in several different

states, I tend to contemplate things. How to make shows better, look for

new songs, etc. Sometimes I revisit the actions of people I observed in

my travels. Currently I am wondering: Why are women mean to each other? I

don't mean that ALL women are mean to each other, but quite a few are. I

see it a lot. Mainly I see it at night while I…

I just voted for this story! I laughed out loud in several places in the excerpt--I can only imagine how much I will enjoy the book if it wins! Please have a look and vote for her-the winner of this contest gets a publishing contract. C.E. Hart is amazing--really quirky and fun. I copied and pasted from her blog to get this to all of you out there.

Read on!

I was almost run down by a pickup truck in the parking lot of our local grocery store. I don’t mean that I walked in front of a truck or they didn’t see me coming. I’m talking about a woman who got behind the wheel, checked where I was in the mirror and gunned her engine at me. She only stopped after the corner of her truck had hit my chest hard enough to bump me back a few feet.

This is a true story. Let me explain.

My wife and I were shopping for groceries. When we walked…

The one idea I wanted to bring out in my award wining scifi novel was the day the alien Titans invaded to haverst our planet is the day everybody realized that we weren't seperate races but we are all part of the Human Race.  Its almost like, "I can say that about my brother but you can't say it."

I would love to have "love" bring the Human race togeather but I quicken the event by having us all hate the same alien race togeather.  Its not pretty but I think more practical. …

I have had the chance to interview C.P. White before and was looking forward to interviewing him today. He did not disappoint; the interview was fresh, fun and a blast as I had hoped. Here is the link to today’s show:

You have two connected ideas, two ideas that together make a complete message. In fact, the connection is so close that you want to join them into one long sentence. For example, let’s say you want to communicate these two ideas:

1. The man entered with a gun.

2. Bank personnel were not amused.

You want to write them in one longer…

Giovanni Gelati, blog talk radio star and co-collaborator once asked my husband, fellow author Cody Toye, if he lived in fear of waking up with me standing over him with a butcher knife in my hand.  While I can indeed shoot razor sharp darts at him with the look that is perfected over time with every married woman, I’m sure Mrs. Gelati can vouch for this; I have never caused him physical harm.  I have ways of making him attest to this point, mwahaha.

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

By Bob Hamer

"Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they've made a difference. The Marines don't have that problem." …Ronald Reagan

I spent four years on active duty as a Marine and twenty-six years as a street agent for the FBI. In retirement I’ve penned three books and have written for television. I’ve met Medal of Honor recipients and the Commandant of the Marine Corps, award-winning actors and Hall of Fame athletes, politicians and…

Shadow poised in the harsh light

Silent tear

Recluse

Gathering autumn leaves

Crumbling in the hand

In death,alive

Craven depth

Blight of fury

Shade your eyes

Hide from the gleam

Enter the chasm

Widening stench

Away from love hate love

God and you

Long hair flowing ,blowing

Dark eyes smiling,knowing

She knew the love of loves

As  only those who lost it know

She lived in memories

With nothing but wisdom to show

She walked tall andalone

Waiting,wondering

As she smiled with her eyes

Knowing

And her dark hair blowing

The overladen dusty skies

Descent of death

Within every Muslim

Lies the spirit of Aljihad

What is life..this world

What use is existence

Amid this gory massacre

Murder of innocents

Surpassing all reality

Is the road to eternity

We shall repay our debts

Lay down our lives

The cruel world watches with cold eyes

Flickering screens

As we live through each…

How human are you

When your hands are bloody

How human are you

When you have ridden

Through the valley of death

I defy you

I shall resist

Fight for my people

Fight for my land

I shall write

With the ink of anguish

Narrate my sorrow

Drown in my pain

The heavens cry

The mournful wind

Wafts through the valley of Karbala

To the bloody…

Missing you,missing me

That feeling

Like everything had fallen

Right into place

Unlucky you,unlucky me

The world changed

Taking a new bend

With you at the farthest pole

Faraway ,faraway me

And everything seemed

Like it never did

Some  magic spell

Losing you,losing me

Happiness evaporated

Leaving these squiggles,scribbles

And a plastic…
