the release of OpenAI making ChatGPT available to the public in 2022, the
authors wondered how a soulless machine would interpret biblical verses. Would the results from a godless computer be
derogatory or supportive of their Christian beliefs? Using some of the most beloved verses as well
as several of the more disturbing passages from the Bible, Preston and Harriet
Lewis began a faith journey through artificial intelligence that provided
surprising results.<o:p></o:p></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"><i><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Devotionals
from a Soulless Machine: A Journey of Faith through Artificial Intelligence</span></i><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"> takes
the reader along as these two laypersons explore how A.I. interprets God’s
message and the basic tenets of Christianity.
The co-authors prompted ChatGPT to develop a devotional of 500 words or
less along with a related prayer on more than a hundred biblical verses,
including some of the most-recognized verses as well as some of the most
obscure or vile passages never covered in Sunday school lessons.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">In the
end the exercise provided the authors with some reassurances about how
artificial intelligence can support religious growth as well as raising
questions about the technology’s long-term implications for the religious
experience. <i>Devotionals from a

from a Humorless Machine: A Comedic Romp through Artificial Intelligence</span></i><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; text-align: justify;">
explores whether AI, specifically ChatGPT, has enough of a sense of humor to
create jokes that will tickle the funny bone of contemporary Americans. Through a series of prompts, the authors
asked ChatGPT to develop jokes on classic themes as well as contemporary issues
with surprising results, all demonstrating AI's sense of humor as shaped by its
algorithmic woke sensibilities.</span></div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Authors
Preston Lewis and Harriet Kocher Lewis prompted ChatGPT to develop jokes on
themes like knock-knock, yo mama, three fellows enter a bar and the reason the
chicken crossed the road. Then they
moved on to more contemporary issues like politics, politicians and gender
identify, challenging ChatGPT to find humor in modern culture. Finally, the authors seek from ChatGPT
observations on contemporary culture in the style of several American humorists
and more recent comedians.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">In the
process, the authors not only touched on the history of classic comedic memes
but also discover biases in the resulting AI output. Are the jokes sensitive? Absolutely!
Are they politically correct?
Without a doubt! Are the jokes
funny? The reader will decide.<o:p></o:p></span></p><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CKYH25H4" target="_blank"><b><span style="font-size: large;">CLICK TO PURCHASE</span></b></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/201301457-jokes-from-a-humorless-machine" target="_blank">Add Jokes to Goodreads</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="110" data-original-width="318" height="110" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVgH-TTbRYz4nBOYi1WFN-B0kjlJmGTJAcICsUfd48vdM2cFkc3eH9Ys8aj_kbdJfDkyKfiPB3ONWe5hlZfVCADv-HmEtIZ8kwFZRnCXfZ5c6oq7pP-7x7pUuCYOfpzg8Ot-YhxYtcfprtWzJNx1NFJwTa-vS2juRJTr5671X381t0Vaa1wids2U817OIf/s1600/AboutTheAuthors.jpg" width="318" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUExrSciky5xn3PDFu5jvvr4h7Ki5FLCffg8mFxuIJOQs4S9zbffSQwVSmxlEgkPGMCOPyXbKI_1bM90byC_z9gsEov17s4N8aDXr5TinaVUXdQ8xXhO7fNxx3vAQG4fJZM5TKSzTz9O0rIZrQE8ZxVAzrMVYD1B7fFYfEqs9gXzDhgsXEaamoan8dsXmU/s320/Authors%20photo%20Lewis.jpg" width="320" /></div></div><b>Preston Lewis</b> is the award-winning author of more than 50 novels and nonfiction books as well as numerous articles, short stories and book reviews.

<p class="MsoNormal"><i><u><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Note from the author:</span></u></i><i><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"> The
below excerpt details how books will always be important to humanity and to the
survival of civilization, even if that is on an invisible moral level with the
inheritance of passing knowledge down to future generations. <o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">The scene takes place in the basements of the
Korporation’s mega-city-like headquarters. The Korporation has built its
foundations upon the Korporate Library, which is located deep underground and
was once the New York City Public Library. </span></i></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><i><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">= = = </span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“I
remember,” Conquergood whispers into the limitless virtual holo-sky. “I do
remember.” <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">He
drops his gaze from off the digital ceiling and in a state of fervid alacrity
Conquergood recasts the first library he had ever been in. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“Fifth
Avenue,” he says to himself, spinning inward in the silent erudition of
self-discovery. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">In his
mind’s eye, still hovering high above the compass imprinted upon the library
floor, he witnesses the entrance to the Fifth Avenue Library: a staircase with
a prostrate stone lion on one side and a stone vase on the other. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Mentally,
Conquergood moves through four towering columns into the effulgent New York
City Public Library. His vision catches sight of a similar sign which now hangs
on the entrance to the Korporate Library. And it is the name — John Milton —
which halts the memory. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“Yes,
I do remember <i>Paradise Lost</i> and a
great many others.” Conquergood struggles into the depths of his eternal soul.
“But that can’t be. That’s impossible. That was so very long ago.” <i>How long</i>? He does not remember. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Uncomprehending,
he struggles with the memory as his frantic mind races with meta-calculations.
In his memory, he continues seeing rows of long wooden tables with entrenched
readers intent on unlocking secrets away from the pages before them, before the
time of the World Wide Web and the virtual environments, separating humanity
from the natural world of touch and taste and smell. Chandeliers of such
exorbitant sunshine reflecting its clean light upon a white floor and its brown
walkway in between rows of tables. Buttresses lining the walls, windows giving
ease to the artificial glow from above. And Conquergood is seeing it all — as
clear as any memory from five minutes ago.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Conquergood
remains embodied in both libraries, being two places at once, propagating
between both worlds, the real and the recollection. He welcomes the exotic
sensations the journey carries, admiring his own awe of what libraries had
been, before the Era of Digitization conquered them; the rules of being
forbidden to speak above a whisper cascade back onto his memories, as well as
the mustiness of age and wisdom being on free display, and he remembers how
these holy sites often went un-used and became under-valued over the
generations. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Conquergood
can now recall how he had behaved on his first visit to the library. As a small
boy he had been nervous with polite reverence, uncertain of which way to turn,
of which aisle to discover, and which row to select from, of which bookshelf to
choose from, of which book he should pull from its everlasting hearth, of which
pages he should read from in order to breathe in its fiery passions to fill a
dulled boy’s heart, igniting a mind to inspire upon ‘a life beyond life.’ The
books had held lives of their own back then. But now he also knows that these
books had made up a whole body, as though each book was a cell in a living
organism in a state of repetitive meditation and waiting for the hand to pluck
them from the tree which bears endless fruit. Feeling overwhelmed, Conquergood
reluctantly leaves his memory-vision. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">After
selecting several more books, Conquergood glides down on the hover-slide and
locates one of two old-fashioned Georgian style leather armchairs next to a
small table and banker’s lamp with bronze base and an amber mica shade. Above
the two chairs is an oil painting, “Still-Life of Books, 1628” by Jan Davidsz,
and Conquergood sees in the painting a violin placed on a wooden desk among
scattered manuscripts. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Starting
from the beginning of the first book he chose, and savoring each morsel of each
word on his lips — as a dehydrated man does in a desert when an oasis can be
found just in time to save his life — Conquergood finishes the book in under
three hours.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Each
phoneme grasps and wets his tongue in unexpected new language and cognizance.
He finishes the book, places it down on the side stand, and in a fit of bedlam
and clarity, juxtaposed with his soul, says aloud, <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“I’m
the ghost that’s always around, but nowhere to be found. Why is that?” <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Out of
the decades of change and virtual globalization, Conquergood can hear the
author’s voice echoing concrete certitude from the page: <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“Without
the library, you have no civilization.”</span></p></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="400" height="112" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ51mIges8NFKUB5IrN92vtnY1r1SJ_gFCsoDjgVc4LUXtoqyb6iRd_QM3-RanZ1VoUZWgkFO-98YyxB2OWTS99F30747x5MVEJKWgzPYrxjKDz0AliyxeQ-Ob5gUZlSfTQ92GHQklkcSIUC_pLrKg8q4qb745Xw7HprINwawXPOhBEDHy9dq43LxYldn8/s320/AboutTheAuthor.jpg" width="320" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3853" data-original-width="2466" height="303" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigMoIrbTv3ayGUg0C_HHNh_B7hG2nA_Io3wjiuOeGcOJtpNQ2xlpye7_lfFA9BtoSTJiC3O-ufjYFxumUpUBayp6gCo4GKKiwvHtAiWiUI1IMEX-DGOXve1ibhFWY3utGQ1YQbFWVyiuQGnh4badV4avl1QYAdzqzqvrxJGtS5bUn23F8iQ7cqtCcMzWFT/w194-h303/Author%20Photo%20Fewston%20credit%20Thor.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="194" /></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Photo credit: Thor<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: justify;">The American novelist <b>CG FEWSTON</b> has been a Visiting Scholar at the American Academy in Rome (Italy), a Visiting Fellow at Hong Kong’s CityU, & he’s been a member of the Hemingway Society, Americans for the Arts, PEN America, Club Med, & the Royal Society of Literature.

But it’s not that simple.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This body was not the first. There were others and all the evidence points to drugs. The local police are not savvy enough to solve these crimes on their own and ask Turner for help. But the former detective has other ideas. He intends to leave his past life where it belongs…in the past. But he soon realizes that he just can’t stay away from the case. Vowing not to work with the local detective, Turner begins his own investigation, putting himself, his dog, and the woman he just met in danger.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Can Turner and the local police set aside their differences long enough to stop a potential drug ring from destroying more lives? The town’s residents are counting on it.

Author Joe Congel weaves together a compelling mystery that will keep you in your seat until the last page, and leave you wishing for more.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Brandon Turner decides to leave New York City and his career as a narcotics officer for a simpler life. Pointing randomly at a map leads him to Magnolia Bluff, Texas, a small town near Austin where life appears slower—but looks can be deceiving. While with his real estate agent, Joyce, they stumble across a dead body, and Brandon finds himself pulled into the investigation. Will Brandon be able to find the peaceful life he’s searching for, or will this murder be the death of his dreams?</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Joe Congel brings Magnolia Bluff, Texas, to life in this tightly-crafted whodunit. Fantastic action and snappy dialogue pull the reader in and don’t let go. It would be easy to lose track in this large cast of characters, but the author keeps a tight focus on the clues while also portraying a slice of life in a small town where everyone knows your business and secrets are hard to keep. Brandon’s tension with Detective Sovern adds the perfect amount of seasoning to this stew of murder and mayhem, keeping the intensity level high at just the right moments.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Brandon is a guy you can easily root for, the kind of guy you hope all cops would be. His budding feelings for Joyce and the portrayal of her as a mom caring for her teenaged son provides a nice counterpoint to the body count piling up in the seedy underbelly of the town. I give this well-crafted mystery a 5 for its effective storytelling and firm grip on the reader. I gulped it down in a day! Although it easily stands alone, I think you’ll find yourself quickly wanting another trip to Magnolia Bluff to see how some of the other characters manage their own mysteries.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="50" data-original-width="238" height="35" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA3YqVKAGUboGJG52XgFDOzxZnIS8x6X4If7qq2L07IJLKyda57wX4r1Oeu8Jvu-DLfHajvlkwRyBMbJ39pJJKQeIwhbBHShda34W5tjAeWSHjUV9W_wo4uvo_nTOAmYJmDnJfBqEywTDvul45_aZX-n7IwO1KH3oySjQlkt2tD-p7c5_Gxxk5dfhm51ZA/w166-h35/5.0%20Stars%20NEW.png" width="166" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="400" height="112" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilCINi9VAzNTMbCLijHqOHMlZ2zWo9rl8HXdcsr5KYLvyzbMAvb5AnWUX9s0J4-nUSedTf538gzzJsMIU6V538OGpC3g8G61LvBLW-MnbDRfsD-kiqGpnrrYFWpnjw0weaDCJxCCCTl2SXH_8H5ObCIcy5wQhppVtAZ1iobA1CKpgNd_UETBbqAoc9vVY2/s320/AboutTheAuthor.jpg" width="320" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="256" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZVS7umBxB-BwpLlhhsiuR5sHQS8eKG9xD828Zu20cayXj-duY2rHUaqxEaUBqnL_WSVPoKgERN6mOObo1z_vzpz4KOKaPUmA-_z5lCYIw7JVzpf1ZqhzUX-z3ZuGL_KxFPdzh8d4ygh5AI2YdFAt8wA4i85_UI5QJPQl2l7B8l9hTLUVTncbq1wdptXy6/w192-h256/Author%20Photo%201%20Congel.JPEG" width="192" /></div><b>Joe Congel </b>grew up in Central New York.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">As
they neared the docking area, the towering lighthouse came into view. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">She
pointed. “I love that they have it illuminated at night, even though it’s not
really necessary anymore.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“It’s
visible from a long way off. I can only imagine how beneficial it was for ships
back in its day to keep them from running aground on the rocks.” He removed his
arm from her shoulders. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“True.”
She laced her fingers through his. “When I read up on the history of this area,
I came across a story about a ship called the <i>Zenobia</i> that broke apart
in 1876 during a rare hurricane and almost sank. It was miraculously recovered.
Somehow, I have to think the lighthouse may have played a part in that disaster
being averted.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“I’m
sure it did.” He stood and pulled her to her feet. “Let’s move to the bow for
the approach.” He put a hand on the small of her back to steady her as the
waves rocked the schooner. They joined two other couples already at the vantage
point. He widened his stance and wrapped his arms around her. The light floral
scent from her shampoo tickled his nostrils. God, how he loved this woman. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">If
she turned him down tomorrow…<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">His
stomach clenched. He wouldn’t think about it. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">When
she stiffened against him, he followed her gaze to the top of the lighthouse.
“What is it, Angi?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“Did
you see that?” she whispered.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“See
what?” <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“It’s
that same woman I saw when we first arrived. She’s out on the widow’s walk.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">Brandon
peered through the increasing darkness, not seeing any figure. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“Perhaps
it’s only a shadow.” <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“I
don’t think so. There were no shadows in the daytime when I first saw her.” She
rubbed her arms. “Look, I’ve got goosebumps. I think it’s a restless spirit.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">While
he wanted to believe her, as hard as he stared, he saw nothing but soft
illumination from the light piercing through the inky darkness. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">She
let out a soft gasp followed by a shriek. “Oh, my God! She jumped.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">Brandon’s
skin prickled, and the hair on the back of his neck stood on end.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-align: center;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">***<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">Angi
shuddered as the figure plummeted toward the ocean. Why could no one else see
it? The couples around them stared, then looked away as if embarrassed for her.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">Brandon
tightened his grip. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">It
stung that he didn’t believe her. For a brief instant, she thought about the
woman in the dining room. Her husband didn’t believe her either. Did Bran think
she was hallucinating? Was she? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">Captain
Duke poked his head out of the wheelhouse. “Everything okay out here?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">Angi
pointed. “Sir, I just saw a woman jump from the lighthouse into the ocean.” She
fought to stop trembling. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“Oh,
matey. You’ve seen Viv.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“Viv?”
Angi turned out of Brandon’s arms to face the captain. “She’s real?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“Well,
she was a hundred years ago. Some say Vivian O’Shea committed suicide, but
other accounts state she was swept off the widow’s walk by a ferocious gale
while watching for the return of her lover’s ship during a massive storm.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">Angi
gripped Brandon’s arm, so hard her nails dug into his flesh. But she couldn’t
let go. “That’s one of the ghosts I read about. But I swear I saw her.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“You
and lots of others,” Captain Duke rubbed a hand across his forehead. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“So,
you don’t think I’m crazy?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">He
laughed. “Not crazy at all.” He swept a dramatic arm around the group. “Anyone
else see Viv?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">No
one replied, but there were hushed whispers. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“Well,
I’ve seen her lots of times, always around this same spot and especially close
to a full moon.” He nodded toward Angi. “So, you’re not crazy at all. Maybe
gifted, but not crazy.” He ducked back into the wheelhouse to navigate the boat
toward the dock.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">Brandon
hugged her tight. “See. You’re not imagining things. The ghost is real. I wish
I could see it.” He rubbed small circles on her back. “Like Captain Duke said,
you have a gift.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;">“Or
curse,” she mumbled into his shirt. <o:p></o:p></span></p><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="112" data-original-width="318" height="112" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5OOYpODjFLGwS0ddA7-azytrihs9G7eYPwZfuUdrTcIIUhr2v4_uT8PtqXYFk3G6242DupEIw5QBkr3JSKrBfOD6Jqc6w5o5XgYJiHQ321WqG0qsbQhpE2xuaXS03gyFi9xAlU2tSttIQYPW0zMAADmuc0hpS9pXwBd1uDEvKAO7Mde_WVp9rZQz2lkdr/s1600/Audio%20Book%20Review.jpg" width="318" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="500" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAZDdMIW-AWLfvkUh8-NWwcHG0k76gwO6sWu1sEJgcK1tuaZWidY9iMyyAMR5h1pZ4lHK0mkSnn-N4iB1iGztOxggW3TKT74IXv_sRmHZxsFLfyQkt3drn_KFKFDuUAd1nqRUJXgeDknggUZrJeXwMaKeVV6Qfq3opiqf-3ha_cLyzvUL3sVTDqa5M48CW/s320/Cover%20AUDIOBOOK%20Edge%20of%20Too%20Late.jpg" width="320" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-family: verdana;">HALL WAYS BLOG MINI-REVIEW: AUDIOBOOK REVIEW.</span></b></div></b></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #1e1915; font-family: verdana;">I really enjoyed having a peek into our main characters' relationship and the turning point in it. Author Jan Sikes quickly gave us a clear impression of both Brandon and Angi, and it made me want to know more! THE EDGE OF TOO LATE felt very much like it could have been pulled right out of the center of a full length novel. Readers get plenty to savor with romance, mystery, action, and a bit of the ghostly element.</span></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #1e1915;"><br /></span></div><span face=""Proxima Nova", Montserrat, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #1e1915;"><div style="text-align: justify;">I rarely listen to audiobooks at regular speed, but narrator Jessine Van Lopik's pacing was perfect, and from a technical standpoint, the recording was flawless. Van Lopik's voicing of Angi is distinct and fits, as was her voicing of the male characters. (I did giggle every time I hear the pet name Brandon used for Angi channeled a most awesome '70s song by the same name that Helen Reddy nailed. I also couldn't help but hear a voice from the Goonies with Angi's pet name for Brandon.) Unfortunately, there were several other characters and situations where the voicing was distracting and took me way out of the story. So audio gets 3 STARS from me. (The good news is that I listened to an early copy and am told they are working on re-doing some of those parts.)</div></span><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #1e1915;"><br /></span></div><span face=""Proxima Nova", Montserrat, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #1e1915;"><div style="text-align: justify;">For now, I'd definitely recommend reading with your eyes, but if you're like me and can't find the time for that, reading with your ears is still time well-spent.

CW had the vision to take the multiple perspectives of a single focus to the next level. A multi-author cozy mystery series occurred when this group of authors decided to write a series of novels about a small town in Texas. In the case of the Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles, the creatives built a fictional town, the beautiful little Texas Hill Country town of Magnolia Bluff, where each of the books throughout the series would be set. Each book is a standalone reading experience.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Each author </span><span style="font-family: arial;">writes in their preferred </span><span style="font-family: arial;">sub-genre to allow readers to experience humor, dark dilemmas, suspense, romance, thrills, and spills — told through good storytelling that will keep readers awake past their bedtime, trying to find out whodunit.</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> Each also </span><span style="font-family: arial;">establishes their characters and roles in the town, including a café owner, newspaper editor, sheriff, and more. The people created by other authors may be used by subsequent authors' stories, but they cannot be killed.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Nine authors delivered nine different perspectives of the town in 2022 in their genres. The authors grew to twelve strong in season two of the 2023 cozy mysteries. Season three begins in January 2024. </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Stay tuned.</span></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1234" data-original-width="2692" height="222" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRgePtrpGlSMimeyTHZ3PgBXb_qKHbk6j7uRm5iZiY785JqqBfMIIRFooPJggXZBzmDZC7ZwV7knjHpR8IBxcaNrr1_E19B7p4Z7XjoVSQCFJ3wxvorITSa6Anv6HZXJf-99MmX1h5nG0xmxPclQR_S1dQfmTYOgyQ8G3KN8ALpy6szAPBf_3lTKK93K0e/w483-h222/All%20Authors%20Magnolia%20Bluff.png" width="483" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Magnolia-Bluff-Crime-Chronicles/dp/B09ZYTGF1V/" target="_blank">CLICK TO PURCHASE THE BOOKS</a></span></b></div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Magnolia-Bluff-Crime-Chronicles/dp/B09ZYTGF1V/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1035" data-original-width="5224" height="101" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFapWztJZhmUMttwV_ZLpBZX2LdeA-vLncdQmic2eZKZeBYab9blyt2JEp4EKgkll1QC3LPCvW05QyhJb5iyI7kskCNityutq8k7ciz-PIhNFzQ_41JOxFZT5dBGROpuPck2p5Gvyu45hBIU9xwOjx-fgFXv5u1tRhCY2KeiVYwHabIrz1xBopHDTTX-k6/w515-h101/XTRA%20Ad%20MBCC.png" width="515" /></a></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">GIVEAWAY!

Mil's discovery leads to the death of a young astronaut, sabotage, murder, and cover-ups that may go all the way to the Chief Administrator of the space agency. Unfortunately, she happens to be Mil's estranged daughter, busy trying to secure her own legacy—the first international mission to Mars.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">With time ticking down to a limited launch window, enemies, friends, and even family may do anything to ensure the truth doesn't come out. Or will history finally catch up with a deadly scheme that has the potential to destroy the moon and eradicate all life on Earth? It seems the planet’s only hope is a cantankerous guy who never really liked those people in the first place.</div></span></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: courier;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>PRAISE FOR <i>THE</i> <i>OXYGEN FARMER</i>:</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i>“An action-packed thriller perfect for fans of Andy Weir and Jack McDevitt.” <b>—Kirkus Reviews</b></i></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i>“This space mystery is a page-turner rooted in its convincing and compelling protagonists and their well-written relationships . . .

A recovering advertising creative director, he spent far too long at ad agencies and freelancing as a hired gun in the war for capitalism.</div><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: justify;">As an adman, Holmes has written newspaper classifieds, TV commercials, radio spots, trade journal articles and tweets. His ads have sold cowboy boots and cheeseburgers, 72-ounce steaks, and hazardous waste site clean-up services. He’s encountered fascinating characters at every turn.</div><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: justify;">Now he writes novels, short stories and screenplays in an effort to stay out of the way and not drive his far-too-patient wife completely crazy. He is an honors graduate of the UCLA Writers Program, a former board member of the DFW Writers Workshop and serves on the steering committee of the DFW Writers Conference. He’s a fan of baseball, barbeque, fine automobiles and unpretentious scotch.</div><br /><div style="font-family: arial; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="http://bycolinholmes.com/">WEBSITE</a> ◆ <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bycolinholmes">INSTAGRAM</a> ◆ <a href="https://www.facebook.com/byjcolinholmes">FACEBOOK</a></span></b></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://twitter.com/bycolinholmes">X (TWITTER)</a> ◆ <a href="https://www.bookbub.com/authors/colin-holmes">BOOKBUB</a> ◆ <a href="https://www.amazon.com/stores/Colin-Holmes/author/B09DD6P93Z">AMAZON</a> ◆ <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/21852150.Colin_Holmes">GOODREADS</a></span></b></div><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 700;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: arial; font-weight: bold;"><div style="text-align: center;">CAMCAT BOOKS:</div></span><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;"><a href="https://camcatbooks.com/Books/T/The-Oxygen-Farmer" style="font-weight: bold;">WEBSITE</a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> ◆ </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/camcat_books/" style="font-weight: bold;">INSTAGRAM</a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> ◆ </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/camcatbooks" style="font-weight: bold;">FACEBOOK</a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> ◆ </span><a href="https://twitter.com/CamCatBooks" style="font-weight: bold;">X (TWITTER</a><span style="font-weight: bold;">) ◆ </span><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@camcatbooks" style="font-weight: bold;">TIKTOK</a></div><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: arial; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1035" data-original-width="5224" height="118" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkj13Q52nq33-VfhERyNJ2w-cotqrT1s6COWUEaM9-voQX5Ymq0VKBjD9eY9lCUkR-boXkHxApx6vIn9HB1PiwiIkerP5wwutKjudCLxH3kAJG74SBm01XaFLqovZQzJgSmUP-FJux5BgZ8P69W7Z5e4SE-gQ5yVB1TDYBdUyPU4comqwTk-pjc48-s9c6/w598-h118/XTRA%20Ad%20The%20Oxygen%20Farmer.png" width="598" /></div><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">-------------------------------------</span></b></div><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">GIVEAWAY!

Emma Taggart has finally found a place to belong – setting up Heaven's Door orphanage with her sister Maura was a new beginning for her – and one she will do anything to protect.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">When guarded ex-army man Stone Landry buys the neighboring land and moves in - camels and all - Emma's world changes forever. He is an infuriating man who instantly gets under her skin - in ways she never dreamed possible, and despite herself, Emma starts to wonder if, just maybe, he is man enough to take on a Hangman's daughter . . . But their newfound connection is quickly tested by violent night raids, kidnappings, and underhand tricks by powerful rancher Zeke Parker, who is intent on running them out of town and taking the land he deems to be his. Can Emma find enough courage to trust in Stone to give her the life, the family, she's always dreamed of?</div></span></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div style="font-size: large; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><a href="https://books2read.com/u/m0og7W" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: large;">Click to Purchase!</span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/156894902-courting-miss-emma" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="116" data-original-width="350" height="61" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_OBH_tTxDsoaEEaAo60ZFdsp6jphfqZ7GcQ54Re7Jxs-NL2ZOLNAEdc21bSTh4kJzbpmD9gu3XLUVeW9Y9qP6DztIEZCRU3bt0xHLRPTV8Kim8oN6NZCbKHoCVOmOq5XIKDvej5wPJqAAnc-oJ7ni4exkZdUKMa4UCJf3Aykv24IpWDHdqhlfupk28teu/w182-h61/add-to-goodreads.png" width="182" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="114" data-original-width="324" height="113" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6krNERWA5gZe-q08ni_g8n_5bY04RNVLlHTZ8m9JHXPyAKwZvL5RnYnpgFgL2nyWGX7kvYijzBG_3lWoR-w4IlO2ZuTz9gL6mF8GM2fGpngjmw_36c4LzBhMA_7LT1mJjg7tBzFhpIQEGDbp09jlY1wdVFDnfExoROHfxnXIbuMcl08VFC9KzdAzhBwde/s320/book%20trailer.jpg" width="320" /></div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/X3FuZK8H_RA?si=r_1qOLLrNK--vdbe" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="112" data-original-width="319" height="112" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiExLiDUX8NkCmEHGEV8miVCBCFrLWIxYk9r3AYBY9HrS6pGww6sGwq0W4x-KksbD7S4Q97YFlRe2Jwqs0LBzymDITAhA3F6jM_3K7IiTqh1zigjOEkgGF4yyjn4owvABbpDFJODugtxqSbOxiP27BU50scm_2unW7axknYZMxZDC4gFtwOK9OSj7s6hgGd/s1600/Notable%20Quotable.jpg" width="319" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="788" data-original-width="940" height="427" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJlYB1KBfjfPc1ZSrHbrx_xQdTEEm_dV-YoqyaRhPgJG2FAWhJltCLfcL6pV2onYa5JicVdrexFZb4D5HdeBvm6LA7r3VlxkU1ouUqSB1pFVHZV_iUKpZJFJFTrstr8jfP_pMf39AEmI4PTz1eG6zh6cX8uaapc2Zk6MNAaDRFFPZnxiV64hOfOWyOMFJs/w510-h427/XTRA%20Notable%20Quotable%20Courting%20Emma%201.png" width="510" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="400" height="112" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQFRj3ypDo6oAVe0b2aipRPovWXPF1xXTTgBaRYq3XMGl5pUED36mTbDTu88uPXAq_UCGILCsXO4pnAvNk7oBgXkRzZ_cIz0eg4qHH7AEwjh8jmW3rWhIpVCtStU0rZDa9fL6wCzyv7xV2HJPTn8tu5t91hcSo7EJql6onQvW4nL2XmeerojCZ4BQfSHx3/s320/AboutTheAuthor.jpg" width="320" /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="809" data-original-width="1002" height="197" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhue60-nzeWoYpKVCOy9bpjIOfg6uifS4v8UeJbmhmPnz9EgZQQhvCTa202AiHn1NDkWl3Z5K5Un31joeaH4pU4zrltNOAsthEQNZP3E-klHW7lX29pcYc3D8tx0YXVLv9i0jE7Vk19d3OhmTDL0zvitGGzvuPsEP2Avy8MtN-TI7x4fqZ3K6F19QjEjao7/w244-h197/Author%20Photo%20Broday.jpg" width="244" /></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I'm a <i>New York Times</i> and <i>USA Today</i> bestselling author of western romance novels and short stories. Watching TV westerns during my youth fed my love of cowboys and the old West and they still do. On a still day, I can often hear the voices of American Indians, Comancheros, and early cowboys whispering in the breeze here on the high West Texas plains. We refer to this land as “cowboy” country and men here still ride the range just as cowboys of old.

Continue to keep your hand raised if you want to pre-write thank you notes to those whom you anticipate attending your funeral because you suffer from chronic “way too nice” syndrome.

Awkwardness is my hidden talent, although most who know me would tell you it isn’t hidden—it’s written on my forehead. My daily life is filled with epic failures. Sometimes I feel like I’m one big malfunction!

Comfort town folks had worked hard all summer to get their shops Hallmark-movie ready. On the eve of the TV crews overtaking the town, Gloria’s Chamber of Commerce welcome party gets drenched in a wicked rainstorm. Locals call it a “blue norther,” and a dreaded agent of change. Flooding seems like the worst of their problems until the celebrity TV host turns up dead.<br /> <br />In shock, Gloria’s friends turn to her to figure out who could be responsible for such a disaster. With the TV crew and guests in town for the 8th Street Market’s annual shopping event, suspects are endless. Reluctant to get involved, Gloria would much rather focus on the delicious romance with Mason Lassiter. And she would if a frenemy from Kerrville didn’t haunt her every step. Now as Gardner Rogers treads on her turf, everything feels suspicious. <br /> <br />With all eyes on Gloria to find the truth behind Jazzy Mezcal’s untimely death, she indulges her curiosity for problem solving while trying to disguise how unsure she is about the future with her boyfriend. Disruption in Mason’s world, mayhem in Comfort, and one epic chocolate disaster rouse Gloria to action and make her decide what’s worth fighting for. All she can say for sure, is that no one is finding any comfort in Comfort.</span><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div style="font-size: large; text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 700;"><br /></span></div><div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Finding-Comfort-Joy-Kimberly-Fish/dp/B0CH22PGRV/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: large;">Click to Purchase!</span></a></div></span><i><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/198389242-finding-comfort" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="116" data-original-width="350" height="57" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrawpYdTPNphC-ZK-Ue1brv0Kdfht96bfHBq54EEzbS17Pt1X1wfKFTP3hYz4LWfXNu7iMNkfxEt6XmBTIOPs8ctfTwMvKMaIDfm8o4eJNBlU-xH6oujbWbdttFwfXP6Fuozn6yzIOgiUA-rPpawt8z42WlATqhgtjBW_lpPRWw3TqvQLObL2zyheSIO5c/w173-h57/add-to-goodreads.png" width="173" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="400" height="112" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqTkxtnmD8DTkasV6h-bqLfsBsg3lUdReFzLukUkx8tkysxC_af3ckx0g_7Da60fUXc4Bv3GR2SgwIP46JLYiFv_zSbHvxXFFCf0WHgHzREL_Ps9z16k0XYTv5CiVLnV4tnRr_4QjCociRpYqfurkz81MgfuJpC8mEtrOK7mz5KvywpbqjoII2DJlkvA9t/s320/AboutTheAuthor.jpg" width="320" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: right;"><br /></div></i><span style="font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="595" data-original-width="481" height="242" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj917xmd7HmTeJpJQblpAojO_eKgy9O9lreYDYDQH2EqPXDG6sM7BNwp8lJXRMrDkPmwCsK4zv3O4P5zl7X0qctIAzugRxUTCe43_i6rqgX-otTNjSFhLH5dzUnzco5DXL-JHqfa0MbjWhgF48zv1M5MdW5FpIsXdJuWvEM_rpzBs6exKOswj2hsEh2xaUl/w195-h242/Author%20Photo%20Fish.jpeg" width="195" /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Kimberly Fish</b> has been a professional writer in marketing and media for over thirty years, with regular contributions to area newspapers and magazines.

He asks Captain May to wage a clandestine war against the French in the Caribbean not as part of the US Navy, <i>but as pirates</i>.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">To accomplish this, Captain May uses the cutting-edge technology of 1799: Girardoni air rifles, Fulton’s self-propelled torpedoes, a submarine, cannons with rifling, and <i>Pandora</i>, a specially modified ship. <i>Pandora’s </i>crew also holds a secret—two women masquerading as able-bodied seamen. Captain May molds his crew into the Brotherhood of Pandora<i> </i>and gives Jefferson chaos in the Caribbean.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div></span></div><p style="text-align: center;"></p><p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">CLICK TO PURCHASE! <o:p></o:p></span></b></p>

He also taught wooden boat building at WoodenBoat School and Great Lakes Boatbuilding School. In addition, he wrote and directed an hour-long “how-to” video on wooden boat building and has written many scripts for industrial and commercial films. This background allows him to accurately portray the boats and ships of the late 18th century and weave a cohesive and compelling story.

He has his iconic VW bus, a hot, wealthy girlfriend, and he’s managed to buy an old fixer-upper in an upscale neighborhood—just the thing to convince his girlfriend’s influential father that he’s husband material. But his new home has a secret, and when Ben opens a mysterious grandfather clock, he finds himself dropped into a magical land. There he meets Pringle, a six-inch prawn with a supercharged attitude and a pouchful of fairy dust. She saves his life, and when Ben returns to his world, Pringle returns with him.</div></span></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div style="text-align: justify;">Pringle’s adjustment to the modern world is a hilarious series of incidents that completely disrupt Ben’s life. When Russian mobsters and a vengeful HOA president attempt to hijack Ben’s life, Pringle zooms to the rescue—a pinch here, a pinch there, nothing a little fairy dust can’t fix.</div></span></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div style="text-align: justify;">But it’s when Pringle begins to grow that things really get interesting, because as Pringle’s size increases, so do her feelings for Ben. Ultimately, Pringle must decide whether to return to her world—or follow her heart and stay with Ben.</div></span></div><div><p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: center;"><b><span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CHK89B7L/" target="_blank">Click to Purchase!</a></span></span></b><b><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/198712365-pringle-prawn" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="116" data-original-width="350" height="56" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFld6usbnKtdYbpqOIN5zjkp5dtcXjJQGbeIdzL4tF430uRtOKy3h3Gw9p2bOiIrutlP7uAgsluJQ2aNxAxb9IFX5E3EASJrdYyxezy-BsvJMN130YAemIxl16ZvO9vw7cnvVcMmhkNKoWHL1-Lsnprl1QDnxs_0cHeB8L0WbbQb-1yI4kNd4LmTW497qv/w168-h56/add-to-goodreads.png" width="168" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="201" data-original-width="576" height="112" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvp7vSRA2_S73BQG0WHhs3Ko7bmzRQEbDkTuQJ1vNtU4o_K_ltextzmeu45azc6zQVpa9I9mDl8qMGYVvin8u7BGfItRavobEKgG2XzNUeKIi7mjywqUlWOslzgE23OTcoXfUrfyLfkgyEIwDnwHVX-XW0uu0tLrnbOobwGWE0_provsjO8xOUX6lfY3Hj/s320/Review.jpg" width="320" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="50" data-original-width="238" height="50" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyGhqS2K7dk57bqvRfM3B7qG0yiNRApWJ7vogcBn1X1HXJ9QGSQA678FXrfmgBXusPudo3xUBtQYTMMOCRZhgBtxLalvSoOcAvolxG2MDHVVwpbXJmpxNeiXWkFZBVeLeNVVkpo0d5v6mHj1AqMS4a6Mf0t2V3BPihgZd4psFLby89UE2yeer4svnlwjrk/s1600/5.0%20Stars%20NEW.png" width="238" /></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">HALL WAYS BLOG MINI-REVIEW: <span style="font-weight: normal;">After reading all the high praise on this blog tour, I couldn't resist buying a copy.

The fallen angel who rescues them wants to guide them to a radiant new life. But first they must return to the scene of a ghastly crime.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div></span></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Billy Worster was a naïve teenager ill-prepared for the gruesome realities of war.

Flynn</b>: a woman of artistic soul and iron will, who forges metal and paints
vibrant canvases as an escape from life's ceaseless challenges. Raised in the
gritty trade of welding, she inherits not just her father's skill but also his
audacity. But her creative passion takes a daring turn when she accidentally

each other or evolve into something even more powerful?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">
Dive into <b><i>Tested By Fire</i></b>, a Christian Fiction saga that weaves
romance, suspense, and spirituality into a tapestry of human resilience.

when it illuminates the entire world with its glory.</span></p>

Christ is revealed to the whole world.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></span></p>

On leave from the FBI, Risa returns to her former career as an English teacher at a local college, only to see her past and present collide when one of her students, Carson Mercury, turns in an assignment that reads like an eyewitness account of her brother's murder, with details never revealed publicly.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Alarmed by Carson's inside knowledge of Trenton's death, Risa reaches out to her former partner at the FBI. Special Agent Gage Patterson has been working a string of baby kidnappings, but he agrees to help look into Carson's background. Risa and Gage soon discover their cases might be connected as a string of high-value thefts have occurred at properties where security systems were installed by Carson's stepfather and children have gone missing. There's a far more sinister plot at play than they ever imagined, and innocent lives are in danger.</div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://diannmills.com/books/facing-the-enemy/" target="_blank"><b>CLICK TO</b><span style="font-weight: bold;"> PURCHASE</span></a></div></span><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/123118617-facing-the-enemy" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="116" data-original-width="350" height="55" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWDx4WKnzbvh6-JUb-cGwMVMw5M_deqy6CuetNVdla_fkgkZefyONqw_d1_fFbdENTW3WVCoWyT7ugRVpeCQFpPpoSYmvxgcuXkoA8nbn3x1IUJcWZUcF6MdpJtQAxdnKRd4FsPMUy5fMsCMpg7Pd8a-NdEvWiRSbJuKfLKXBmG1aYD55LuPkUKh4_5WPi/w165-h55/add-to-goodreads.png" width="165" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="349" data-original-width="997" height="112" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNN26ENpB74cB3apibONozxjVq94UvvB1_2yA6-QjGTDQv1TMzV9huwSaIXh7rPBpHIjOnmzyfF2mWlKdOOglJqyGYsVYZdVp1xVYVJmDr9T39l8RMY9btazlHZat8Mwa9NySEXmrY3mz5GE7msi_1V4LbbiJMZ-oAhGjdXefpIeQGIVdLSjY4u-P-zVNd/s320/Notable%20QuotableS.png" width="320" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>A few Notable Quotables from</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Facing the Enemy</b></span></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>by DiAnn Mills</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="305" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhIc1rqRAj3P2HUXlrewaXY7mk50_iCpRIieSLjzLDZbMZwEQNocAB7rk5k4_uke7oLl_infQ2BeMew9li0lpzVUPJ7ZQtBrC-CBt8jQkQaWf7No6whZ253-XpNsViYf6R93Be5Z_QA4vfssphfsFNaK0Rh5WmmYiarmRXOhdFA-Oq2THRYXwOYqlDQanWr=w305-h305" width="305" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="835" height="355" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjxJWOv7gUeY6Qzsg5iTNPa_zzroO8x9n8ddNUTEiS_6WQAQe4nOf8GFmlsyWAPK2kP70kbfupi8Ao5s6D7xtcue3bvjoXqoO4QbEiIEsfdQ56fWqTV-Ot0aocOoUZowGiI-v814ujAOswVHsx1VRaXyxLRLyBiaTnfERul5IlgzHbpH4-su8Uxvc2wdR0l=w232-h355" width="232" /> <img alt="" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="835" height="356" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg3v7VsnS6JHR2VksQOP02ZqEvJ6QBbm3-U469nqycJBq4vwA799XCdOgSmY8959vniizFqpwXoHBnObQjcZCCUsaHpZ046xX8EQZPX9SOlZkGtRJxSpBzuq-5N5pwyEtJPJYpgYmfaYUSFLhk8FS4LSDfrDEO6iQs0BTCr6kFsVxdT0y4BiI4rTN1Kpdv_=w233-h356" width="233" /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="400" height="112" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHCxW83KUjVnfZYhLZGcurT0Z2wUhXYFjPvZVyRMXg_11gfH4qdyrB3qCKZoLGGwsnJGCPnFlE6ZIJUdViY_TPGXglsGXPiGdTgmF2pErHrtPIKFq2KCmhwEmAbp7Mm9K5FCEm9dYFsUHHG4Kk_AR91CgeqZH4YpVwCLu3B5hDs5F9jd26IZd7WNBSVdY5/s320/AboutTheAuthor.jpg" width="320" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: right;"><div class="separator" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3600" data-original-width="2400" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdmN2yALT8rd-FnFdSnrX2aeTneXZq60jxlkpa4seJtfXPSx0Ve8cPfLVTFuOqe4vdgoM2IHXmWCE0EPNKelHgz96EVxIkDO1Zs5eSo4wRXrXNxsYynQONDbU_zsBN6UYHE-2h71ijJWROQSHVSFALffbMr_uPksLy4XyyXzvoKxD_nhTReIkA4F4FMCbc/s320/Author%20Photo%20Mills.jpg" width="213" /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>DiAnn Mills</b> is a bestselling author who believes her readers should expect an adventure.
