Hollywood Forever Cemetery, June 2015: A freshly dug grave.
Halloween, 2014: Mona arrives in Los Angeles.

After a traumatic breakup, the confused and often drunk Mona, finds herself in LA. Her brother, Joost, is an up-and-coming director whose recent success at Cannes has led him to turn an old Cary Grant movie into a sexy, space-set romance with blockbuster potential.
A tendency toward self-destruction, impulsiveness, and outlandish outbursts makes Mona the type of tormented enfant terrible that drives bleak coming-of-age classics like The Catcher in the Rye and Girl, Interrupted. This time with her brother’s career at stake she wants to bend the town to her own will. But when everything spirals out of control, Mona is forced to decide where her loyalties lie.
About to put her only friend in the world in mortal danger.

The Moskowitz Code

About The Moskowitz Code:

Just When You Thought it was Safe to be Healthy…
When his doctor mistakenly types the wrong code into his electronic medical record, Myron Moskowitz – Mike, to the entire world except his mother, Celia – finds life, or at least the one he’s grown used to, suddenly turned tush-over-teakettle. With that single dodgy digital diagnosis, a chain reaction is set in motion leading Mike to lose his job, accidentally get all trace of himself wiped off of every computer in the known universe, and seriously contemplate buying a Harley. And Mike isn’t exactly what you’d call a motorcycle kind of Moskowitz.
Somehow Mike must find a way to get back on the grid and get his old job back, all without his wife finding out about any of it.

Those Eyes: A Metaphysical Comedy by Marc Richard

About Those Eyes: A Metaphysical Comedy by Marc Richard:

Reincarnation. It ain’t for dummies.

”Reading this made me glad I never fell in love”- Lonely Man on Balcony

Ronnie and Helen. Two teenagers in love with marriage on the horizon. Till an accident cuts his life short.

The Archangels make sure his soul gets into a new body.

But they screw up.

Seriously. Ronnie can’t catch a break.

Those Eyes is a surrealist romantic comedy originally penned by a group of Benedictine monks in a trailer at a maple syrup protest rally. The manuscript went through several revisions, and even one book burning demonstration, and is now nothing like the original text. It has been translated into one language: This one. It’s packed with extra comedy, a whole lot of love, a splash of the ghastly, and more than a touch of the bizarre.

Give it a read and discover just how weird love can be.

The Afterlife of Walter Augustus

About The Afterlife of Walter Augustus:

Walter Augustus is dead. His current state of existence has become a monotony of sweet tea and lonely strolls and after decades stuck in the Interim — a posthumous waiting room for those still remembered on Earth — he is ready to move on. Only when he is forgotten by every living person will he be able to pass over and join his family in the next stage of the afterlife. At last the end is tantalizingly close, but bad luck and a few rash decisions may see him trapped in the Interim for all eternity.

Letty Ferguson is not dead. Letty Ferguson is a middle-aged shoe saleswoman who leads a pleasant and wholly unextraordinary life, barring the secret fortune she seems unable to tell her husband about. However, when she takes possession of an unassuming poetry anthology, life takes on a rather more extraordinary dimension.

Praise for The Afterlife of Walter Augustus

“Heart-warming, clever, and populated with a host of well-drawn and engaging characters, The Afterlife of Walter Augustus will surely prove to be one of the stand-out releases of 2018.” – Joel Hames, Author of Dead North

“A fresh perspective on the classic existential question – what happens next?”

“Tears and laughter until the very last page.”

“A cross between The Five People You Meet in Heaven and American Gods. A great read.”

Walker: or What Happened to the Tail of an American Indian in Tucson

About Walker: or What Happened to the Tail of an American Indian in Tucson:

Kenista Noah-Walker is a displaced First Nations story-teller and spoken word artist lost in the vortex that was the Tucson of yesteryear and contemplating what direction to take for the turn of the milennium. She has attracted the interest of a slam poet producer but he wants more from her than her funny, light-hearted stories if he’s going to feature her on his new program. Nista has decided she needs to choose a new direction, but her Lakota cousin Albie keeps showing up, bringing joy and mass destruction equally to all whose paths he crosses. Together with the poets, performers, and scenesters of Tucson’s 20th century underground scene centered on the legendary Goth Club Asylum, Albie zig-zags his way across Nista’s indecision. The poets are out to sabotage an upstart event coordinator, some shady things are going down at the club next door, illusions are crumbling like stucco downtown, friends and lovers are being lost and found, and Nista’s people have a Columbus Day rally to organize, one with a dangerous unannounced guest. The times are about to change for downtown Tucson, forever. Nista knows that the funny thing about life is, no one ever gets out alive. Based on true events and real-life personas, living and dead, that once haunted the downtown strip on Congress Street, where John Dillinger was finally apprehended, ‘Walker” stretches a web that runs from timeless introspection through spoken word performance and story all the way to hyperbole and back again. This is a glimpse at a world that has vanished into the mists of local legend and the people who lived there on their last karmic walk-about at the cusp of the 21st century in America’s Sonoran Desert.

About Champions of the Dragon (Epic Fallacy Book 1):

Murland Kadabra has always dreamed of becoming a great wizard. However, at age 19, the young apprentice has yet to successfully cast a single spell. He has been reduced to grounds keeper of Abra Tower, and has become the laughing stock of the wizarding school. But when the Most High Wizard Kazimir chooses him to be one of the five Champions of the Dragon, Murland’s life changes forever.
He soon finds himself traveling through the wilds with four unlikely companions, including an alcoholic knight, a gay elf prince, a dwarf with humanism, and an obese ogre. Prophecy dictates that these champions must march west to the shadowy peak of Bad Mountain, where they are destined to do battle with the dreaded dragon of legend, Drak’Noir.
But what few people know, is that the prophecy is not altogether true. For it is not five champions who Kazimir chooses, but five fools. They are not meant to defeat the dragon, but to feed her.
To change their fate, the Champions of the Dragon must not only overcome their enemies, but also themselves.

Songs From Richmond Avenue

About Songs From Richmond Avenue:

If the adage “nothing civilized ever resulted from the drinking of beer” requires further proof, one needs look no further than down Houston’s pothole-infested Richmond Avenue. There the blurry-eyed denizens of the Relix Club wile away the hours engaged in their two favorite activities – drinking and betting.
Until recently that was good enough for our storyteller, a journalist of questionable work ethic, who undergoes an epiphany following a bus stop meeting with pretty Michelle, a woman he declares has “skin so perfect I doubted she even had pores.”
Could she be his redemption? Maybe, but first he’d better contend with her baseball bat-wielding former beau, and the suspicious death of a friend, who – when he’s had enough wine – fancies himself the father of Brute Generation poetry.
Mostly satire, occasionally absurd, the only true long shot in Songs From Richmond Avenue would be for the protagonist to put down his beer down long enough to learn anything.

Midsummer’s Bottom

About Midsummer’s Bottom:

The Midsummer Players stage an outdoor version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream every year. The actors are dreadful and audience members almost never attend more than once. Except for…

…the fey folk!

All of the fairies named in the play are obliged to attend every performance, due to a deal that they struck with a mischievous Master Shakespeare. In an attempt to break up the Players on the eve of their twentieth anniversary, Oberon and Puck hire a human agent of chaos to infiltrate the actors’ ranks and set them against one another by focusing on secret attractions and grudges that have been lying dormant up to now. Sparks will fly, and everyone will come to blows, but it’s all executed with a wink and a grin, and there will be more smiles than tears by the end. At least, that’s the plan…

This comedic fantasy is for lovers of Shakespeare, chaos and fairies everywhere.

The Sweetness Run by Wendys Donuts

About The Sweetness Run by Wendys Donuts:

“Comedy central in a book, mad funny and unpredictable. Great read.” – Review by Nishant

“An incredibly raunchy comedy that’s a combination of Family Guy, Deadpool and Curb Your Enthusiasm all rolled into one.” – Review by Anthony Avina

A no holds barred laugh riot riot where friendship transcends everything from race to orientation to sporting allegiance.

“The Sweetness Run is an ecstasy for the mind and soul.” – Review by Ranjan Rakesh

Life can be quite a serious affair.
Getting through it takes a strong will and an unconventional mindset.
Enter Jason. The prototypical man-child.
Mindsets don’t get more unconventional than this.

“A deep dive into the mind of an original and colorful character and his struggle to overcome the challenges of life.”

Jason always relies on his quick wits, colorful friends and dumb luck to help him trudge through the trials that life throws his way. But his biggest source of comfort is the hard-fought-for trophy of his league, The Sweetness. Her Majesty The Sweetness is Jason’s shining beacon of warmth and innocence. A source of ever lasting light to guide him through the darkest of times.

When The Sweetness is stolen, Jason will have to summon all of his courage, rally the boys and rescue her Majesty from the clutches a most nefarious foe. They will have to combine their strengths and trust the bonds of their friendship if they are to ever see The Sweetness again. The mission the group undertakes will surely strain their bonds but will eventually bring them closer together in ways they never imagined possible.

“This exhilarating journey has some of the most descriptive and colorful commentary on life and brings both humor and insight into male friendships.” – Review by Anthony Avina
