Beauty of the Fall by Rich Marcello (Book Review #469)
Just like everything else in life, as soon as Dan’s idea and software take off, his previous employer decides to give Dan grief over the concept of originality and theft of intellectual property.
Dan’s life is once more tipped and turned, and he has to straighten things up. The story resembled a Mark Zuckerberg story. It also touched sensitive topics such as domestic violence, loss, dealing with death and the loneliness one feels when they have been lonely.
The story enticed the reader to feel more compassionate towards its characters. While the protagonist had his own issues, the company he creates is aimed to relieve people from similar problems.
I found the literature to be easy to understand and to follow. The pace of the tale was decent and kept the reader engaged. I believe this fictional story would benefit readers that enjoy relatively easy-going books.

Hyperspace Radio by James Beach (Book Review #468)
From stories like wishful thinking, my undead dad, or the illegal alien beings – humor filled the book creating a continuous experience of fun and enjoyment for every story.
The literature was easy to follow and contained a high standard of good quality writing. Each story was not too long or short which provided the suitable amount of time spent on the reader to finish every part.
The pace depended on the story being told. I believe anyone who is not into long hours of reading and wishes to just enjoy taking a trip imagining these tales, even for a short period of time, would enjoy this book.
The cover design suited its content and since I rarely see that with collection storybooks, I felt that it needed to be mentioned as well.
I believe the author would benefit more from writing full piece stories and based on his writing skills, would succeed amazingly in producing fantasy stories.

CKP’s Latest Author
The foreword of our latest published work explains it all, followed by the links where you can get our new paperback and e-editions of Once Upon a Time in Brownsville!Hurray! Welcome Linda!
FOREWORD
Respect your elders. Do good deeds. Choose work that you find to be fun. Find a way to help others, and you’ll never be lonely or poor. These principles ingrained in me from childhood popped to mind the moment I heard of the opportunity to help Linda Longoria-Neff publish her work. Yet, even my parents who instilled these ideals were not born yet for some of these tales, and just young children for others. Oh, the wisdom and social insight that can be gleaned from people who lived in those times, in that place.
Brownsville, Texas is a charming town by the Mexican border on the Gulf Coast. This extraordinary place, combined with the world-changing time…

The Intervention by Patrick Roberts (Book Review #467)
Get the Interview Get the Job by Matthew Dovell (Book Review #466)
The second part takes over the interview procedure and how to introduce yourself to the potential company you wish to work for. What I found interesting is that, in the day and age that we live in, everything is now technically advanced. The way we present ourselves all depends on paper and what we submit. The book provides ways for the seeker to eliminate the subject of being passed through dozens of resumes, simply because the word match is not applied. I believe that is a good way to get noticed.
The book is also available in audio, which does assist the user if they do not like to read.
The literature was easy to understand and provides the reader with the ability to feel more confident about seeking employment. While I am fully aware that there are organizations that can do all this for you in person, I think this book would suit people that wish to seek employment from the comfort of their own home.

Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen, 1817 (Book Review # 2)
Summary
“Northanger Abbey is the light-hearted account of a young girl’s first excursion into fashionable society. Catherine Morland is taken to Bath where, among a crowd of new acquaintances, she meets Henry Tilney and his sister Eleanor, who invite get to stay at their family home, Northanger Abbey. Catherine, a devotee of ‘horrid’ Gothic novels, fervently hopes that the Abbey will match the haunted ruins conjured up in her imagination.
While poking fun at popular fiction, Catherine’s story also exposes the difference between illusion and reality and shows her artless approach to people attracts true friendship and love.” – by Jane Austen Read More
This Modern Love: A Novel by Ray Hecht (Book Review #34)
A brutally honest portrayal of what seems to be the common mannerism of our youth and our society. Here you have four young adults living in four different ways, and each chapter discusses their addiction to technology, their odd ways of connecting to people through social media, and how they inevitably end up alone due to their initial wrong approach.
The Shatter Point by Jon O’Bergh (Book Review #465)
The book is a perfect Halloween gift. It contained every delicious horror content one strives from at this time of the year. The story certainly contained a thrilling status of its own with characters that engaged the reader, wanting to know more as I read along. The pace was slow which sometimes annoyed me, but I felt that made the ending sweeter.
A RIGHT CHARACTER – Daniel Abrahams
Having touched on the subject of writing, as in getting down to the job of actually doing it, in my previous article, I thought it was worth opening the door, ever so slightly, on the subject of characters, fictional that is, and the creating of there in.
I prefer to use a sort of ‘method acting’ approach with my main protagonists, and with supporting characters I tend to litter them with bits and pieces of people I see, remember or know, but only the slightest bits. Read More
