Maria Ciampi
This is the tale of Kris Kringle
an awfully sloppy toymaker who dreams of a tattered toy
sketch and loves a Claus named Evelyn. It is also the
tale of a devilish Mr. D who has a vendetta against a
Claus named Santa. And it is also the tale of Santa who
won't let go of his Rulebook even in face of a
karate-chopping Claus named Mrs. C. All of these
characters are knotted together by a magical curse and
an ancient contract which can only be unraveled with the
help of a lawyer named Daniel Webster. Reader, A
Read-Aloud Movie for You Awaits . . . .

T.E. Scott &
Stephen Edds
The Losing Game: Why You Can't Beat Wall
Street shows the bottom-line basics of how Wall Street is
fleecing millions of Americans every day with Congress and the
media as willing accomplices. In plain-speaking terminology,
Scott presents a revolutionary perspective that uncovers the
deceptive conditioning of the American worker to place their
trust in Wall Street without question.

Mamie L. Smith
"A poignant and heart-warming
autobiography, and Mamie L. Smith's strong faith in
Christian Science runs like a golden thread through the
narrative. The author portrays her daughter as a strong,
determined, and caring person that she was, and the bond
between them should touch the reader's heart. The engrossing
story told in "The Unfolding of a Rose" should resonate with
the reader long after the last page is turned. "

While church members are facing spiritual confusion and
financial hardship - church leaders are living as richly as CEOs
and church buildings are growing into huge and lavish corporate
headquarters.

money to churches he now feels “have a profit through guilt”
agenda. His message to you is that we can experience God’s love
directly and that religious organizations, whose leaders live
richly as wealthy executives and whose church buildings are the
equivalent of plush corporate headquarters, need to be exposed
for what they are. "

Michael Rushnak
TERMINAL NEGLECT will make you cringe when the "best and the
brightest" sabotage the public good in their evil pursuit of
power, lust, and greed. Through the prism of the author's
imagination, you will take a fictional ride through the "dark
side" where the worlds of medicine, politics, and government
collide in pulsating mortal conflict.
"Terminal Neglect is a white hot thriller, tightly
plotted and full of terrific twists. This is one of
the very best medical thrillers I have read--not
recently, EVER! Michael Rushnak's first novel hits
with the force of a runaway freight train. The
tension starts on page one and never lets up. I am
so impressed. Michael Rushnak's imaginative,
fast-paced thriller gave me paper cuts from turning the pages so
rapidly.
