![]() ![]() The author, Joseph Murphy does make some tall claims that he continues on as fact without scientific basis or accreditation. ![]() In fact, actively thinking about a gear change or depressing the clutch in response to a traffic event slows down your reaction times because the mind is much faster when operating with the body on a subconscious level. It’s like driving a manual car, once you have reached a certain level of experience the body just reacts to a situation. The origin of an idea, the journey of how electrical impulse firing inside my brain can lead to a physical manifestation in the form of something as simple as a chore to complexities of my daily job as high underplayed on a daily basis. ![]() The idea that we can learn while not actively concentrating on a topic or by listening to a tape while we sleep boggles my mind even today. The subconscious mind has always fascinated me on some level ever since I was introduced to the concept several years ago. ![]()

The story is narrated by the twins together as they describe their life at their grandmother’s place, the people they meet, the new things they learn, the friends they make, how the war years pass, and the challenges they and their grandmother face together. The grandmother is a tough customer but the twins manage to handle the situation. A mother takes her two young twin sons and leaves them at their grandmother’s place. The story told in ‘ The Notebook’ happens during the time of the Second World War. The English translation of ‘The Notebook’ that I read is published by Grove Press, an indie publisher based out of New York. ![]() I read this for #ReadIndies hosted by Kaggsy from Kaggsy’s Bookish Ramblings and Lizzy from Lizzy’s Literary Life. For a long time, I thought that Ágota Kristóf was the European / Hungarian version of Agatha Christie □ Ágota Kristóf is a totally different author, of course, and very different from Agatha Christie. I was inspired by a friend to get Ágota Kristóf’s ‘ The Notebook‘ and read it. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I loved seeing a story featuring a kitsune using her powers for good and would love to read more about this character. Kim May's KEEP KAIJU WEIRD was a little on the weird side which was great and refreshing after so many grim stories. It was fun to see Jane Yellowrock pop up in a different book universe and be her awesome monster hunting self. One of my favorites was Faith Hunter's SHE BITCH, KILLER OF KITS. There's monster-hunting going on, so there's lots of bloody action scenes, suspense, and of course scary dangerous monsters. Regardless of the author, I'd categorize the stories in this anthology as gritty urban fantasies. I liked that even if you've never read the series you can still enjoy some of the stories in this anthology and get a sense of the world that connects them. ![]() While some of the stories relate directly to characters from the Monster Hunter International series some authors insert their own characters into the universe. The MONSTER HUNTER FILES anthology is a brilliant view into the Monster Hunter International series through the lens of some of my favorite authors and some new authors I should explore in the future.

With Seaman behind the wheel, Lennon often toyed with the car radio, scanning up and down the FM dial to catch up on, and often critique, the latest hits or wax nostalgic to the sounds of the golden oldies. With his personal assistant and driver Fred Seaman in tow, Lennon enjoyed riding along the North Shore roads in order to "check out the neighborhood." ![]() The Lennons had purchased the property the previous autumn, and John had been eager to spend more time there. In March and April 1980, Lennon ensconced himself in the family's Cannon Hill estate on the edge of Long Island's Cold Spring Harbor. But an old friend provided what might have been the most significant moment of inspiration during that fateful final year in Lennon's life. Over the past several months, he had started furtively writing new material as he and wife Yoko Ono plotted their return to the music business. By the early spring months of 1980, John Lennon had begun to recapture his lost muse after more than four years in self-imposed retirement. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But when Aida’s mother insists that Sarah be found and killed, Aida is given the one assignment that she may not be able to carry out.

The last book was released in 2002, and while I adore her other books, I was starting to lose hope that she would ever return to Den of Shadows. Finally!Īmelia’s Den of Shadows currently consists of four amazing vampire tales – In the Forests of the Night, Demon in My View, Shattered Mirror and Midnight Predator. Back to writing about vampires that is!

And so it really kind of pushed me into a different realm." ![]() "It really forced me to grow up, and it forced me to recognize the sadness in the world and the heartbreak in the world, but also to try to see the beauty of the world when you survive that and when you can get through it. And not to one or ten or a hundred or a thousand, but tens of thousands of broken-hearted stories of grief and missing people." ![]() "And suddenly I was thrust into that role of a listener. Can I talk to you about her?" Albom said. And the last thing we did was read your book together. Instead of talking to me about sports… I would have people come up and say, "you know, my mother died of cancer. ![]() "What began to happen right after I wrote that book is that people started talking to me in a different way.

"I was blacklisted because I took certain positions on things and never retracted," Terkel once said in an interview about those times. Also, at that time, McCarthyism was a potent force, and Terkel was outspoken politically, with a highly liberal tone. Terkel later complained that commercialization of television forced his show, and the others in the "Chicago school," from the air. He was interested in what he was talking about and whom he was talking to.īut his TV career did not last. ![]() Terkel, arms waving, words exploding in bursts, leaning close to his companions, didn't merely conduct interviews. It was on "Studs' Place," which was set in a tavern, that large numbers of people discovered what Terkel did best - talk and listen. ![]() When television emerged as a force in the American home in the early 1950s, Terkel created and hosted "Studs' Place," one of the major jewels in the legendary "Chicago school" of television that also spawned Dave Garroway and Kukla, Fran and Ollie. ![]() ![]() She has since published more than 60 novels and four novellas Kay is single and lives in a very small town in North Carolina, not far from her father and siblings.

Kay's sister Linda works as her Business Manager, Events Coordinator, and Regional Publicist. Her father (now retired) and brother are builders who own a highly respected construction company, and her mother worked for many years in personnel management before becoming Kay's personal assistant, a position she held until her untimely death in March 2002.
