GO ABTP! (chant, chant, chant)
Okay, first... a gloat.
My favorite team, ABTP won! Woo-hoo!
If you haven't guessed yet, ABTP stands for "Anybody But The Patriots."
Seriously, I'm a Colts fan, but regardless of what team I liked, I'd still hate
the Patriots ... unless I lived in Boston. Then I'd like the Patriots,
but I'd have to… Continue

I'm not Richard Nixon!!
Okay, maybe by the end of this, you'll be going, 'sure, he's a politician like all the others."
Well, maybe, I have been kissing some babies lately. Their heads are all fuzzy and soft, so it can get kind of addicting. I guess I can
understand why the politicians do it all the time.
But why
don't they kiss old people, or people with body odor? Old people need
comfort and love ... stinky people need, um, well, they can be lovable,
too ... from…

Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”
Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."
Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"
Book Synopsis:
The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.
Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.
The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.
