Please join me every Thursday at 12:00 Noon (EST) at www.blogtalkradio.com/marymoon and step out into your Last Miracle Mile! Listen, as I read to you from The Last Miracle Mile and share with you what I’ve learned about the trauma of victimization. I know firsthand about healing from the trauma of being victimized, and it’s my intent to teach others what I’ve learned so they can empower their lives. Mine is not your typical self-help book; it’s an inspiring hope filled story of healing, and forgiveness.

SPEAKTHEWORDNOW

The road to lasting change...Politicians promise change. Many people want to change their bodies or their personalities. Some want to be free from destructive habits or addictions. True, lasting change comes only through Jesus Christ. It starts with asking the Lord to forgive us...turning away from sin (evil things) to follow Christ. It continues through the presence and the Power of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer. And the Word tells us that when we see Jesus, we will be changed to be like Him forever. Always Karen, http://www.speakthewordnow.com

There comes a time in life when change can be bad and change can be good, I suppose it is based on the hands of the receiver! So for some this news will be good and for others it could be bad, for me, it is Grrrrrreat! July 14th on Angellesa's Blog Talk Show, announcements were made amongst all the fun. If you missed the fun you must go and listen to "Ladies Night" and see how we crashed the party! www. blogtalkradio. com/angellesa So what is the news you ask? Ok, let's get the Granny Panties off JL's head and pull him out from under the couch so we have everyone's attention. 1) EW Bradfute is no longer Casting Director for Triad Pictures, NO! He has been promoted to Production Manager! This means he supervises the burials of all the bodies. Doing snuff films someone has to make sure the work gets done and EW is that man! 2) My Blog Talk Radio show will be getting a time change! That is right, Sunday will remain the same, however, 7pm CST will be the new time. This takes effect the first show in August. Mainly cause the cost of sunscreen has gone up and well most of my victims have been broke. See I don't just hunt for blood... 3) Triad Pictures is hitting the AIR WAVES! That is right, I will be helping and guest hosting (From time to time) TRIAD STUDIOS as they begin to party on the air. Get ready cause TRIAD PICTURES will be taking it WORLDWIDE! Get on their friends list today so you don't miss the party! www. blogtalkradio. com/triadstudios 4) I am looking for a few good things! This could save your NECK! I will be doing a section on Funny News Casts! This will be real news stories (Recorded) that we will play on the air. So if you got them send them to themortalvampire@gmail.com ALSO, Authors, I am looking for you! Any author that has gone to a publisher that has been done wrong CONTACT ME. We will do a show of authors done wrong and have a publisher or 2 there to help you through the next steps. For the most part Enjoy the shows and Plan on some NEW surprises to come! And Watch your Neck, you never know who will be next on "Interview with the Mortal Vampire" www. blogtalkradio. com/themortalvampire

    Call-in Number: (347) 945-7025


    Six Wild Rose Press authors make up the An American Rose Christmas Anthology due out on December 11 in print and E-book. Authors in the anthology are Beth Trissel, Donna Dalton, Carol Spradling, Lauri Robinson, Susan Macatee, and Tori Anne. A stellar group of writers. Reclaimed by his wealthy uncle, former Shawnee captive Corwin Whitfield finds life with his adopted people at an end and reluctantly enters the social world of 1764. His one aim is to run back to the colonial frontier at his first opportunity–– until he meets Uncle Randolph’s ward, Dimity Scott Tory captain Dr. Nicholas Clayton discovers stolen military secrets on a severely injured female spy. When her wounds heal, Holly Masters must decide if she can kill the man who saved her life. While pretending to be a male soldier, farm girl Sara Brewster falls for a handsome Union army surgeon. When her secret is revealed, will a lavish Christmas Eve ball work in her favor--or will her heart be broken? Southern belle Marybeth Dawson discovers Santa Claus can’t cross the Mason Dixon line--but handsome Union soldier, Trevor Sutton can. When a strong willed upper class New York girl falls for a dashing, compassionate stable boy, it will take a Christmas miracle to bring them together. Thankfully, true love is on their side. All reformed prostitute Eva Baird wants for Christmas is to have her daughter back in her arms. But gun-toting outlaws, spiteful in-laws, and a sweet-talking stranger with arresting gray eyes threaten to turn her dream into a lump of coal. http://www.bethtrissel.com/

    Author Fran Lewis with Alzheimers and Bertha Fights Back.

    Bertha, a thirteen old teenage girl, living the South Bronx, is having trouble dealing with everyday issues that children face in school and just growing up. Bertha is uncoordinated, not very pretty and has trouble doing any physical activities. Bertha has a sister named Tillie who is very pretty, very agile and has no problem making friends or doing all of the things that Bertha cannot do. They are total opposites. Tillie and many of Bertha's cousins enjoy laughing at her when she tried to ice skate; take dancing lessons or even bowl. Bertha attempted to do all of these things but could not. However, she is smart, sassy and has a great sense of humor, which helps her to deal with these experiences and others. Growing up can be difficult when you are over weight or not really good at sports or dancing. I hope you will learn from reading my book that you can be anything that you want to be and no one can stop you from reaching your goals and dreams. Not everyone is born athletic, beautiful, thin or a genius. However, every one is smart or excellent in something whether it is drawing, jumping rope or even running track. Who you are as a person is what makes you special. I hope that you enjoy reading about Bertha and Tillie and learn that there is a little bit of Bertha in everyone. My first two books send a positive message to children. They both deal with real life issues that children face today. Being over weight, bullied in school, and not very pretty made life hard for me. I know that it makes it even more difficult for children growing up today. In Bertha Fights Back Bertha learns that following the path of others and not being true to who you are can be costly in many different ways.

    Author Amy Grech with Blanket of White.

    — Sherry Decker, Author of Hook House and Other Horrors What makes Blanket of White stand out from other collections is the emotional response to common themes: death and sadness, love and sex, loss of innocence, and twisted family relationships. These are some very powerful stories that wrench at the human heart and plumb the darkest depths of the soul. Bravo.” — Nate Kenyon, Author of Bloodstone, The Reach and The Bone Factory “Blanket of White is a collection of short stories that leave the reader fighting an attack of shivers and wondering if, perhaps, there more dreadful truth to the tales than fiction. Sometimes we remember people the way we want to remember them, instead of how they really were. We forget the fear, the horror, the torture, and we remember their beautiful eyes and hair—their soft voice. Sometimes we try to justify terror, try to make sense of it. We try to adapt. Sometimes, we manage to convince ourselves that murder can be a loving thing. There is a strong sense of winter in these stories. Chilling details and coldness pervade the characters and the tales. For the reader these stories leave more questions than answers and readers may find themselves remembering these tales for a long time.” About the Author: Amy Grech has sold over one hundred stories and three poems to various anthologies and magazines including: Apex Digest, Fear on Demand, Funeral Party 2, Inhuman Magazine, The Book of Dark Wisdom, The Flash Fiction Offensive, The Horror Express, Visit her Web site: http://www.crimsonscreams.com .. .. for a good fright.
