WAR by Bob Woodward
WAR (2024) by Bob Woodward begins with a prologue explaining how his Watergate reporting partner, Carl Bernstein, invited him to join him at a party in 1989. "Trump is here," Bernstein said, telling him it was a fun party and he enjoyed the conversation with Trump. Woodward's conversations at the party quoted Trump as saying he was a great loyalist and that in New York City when inspectors gave him violations (unfounded in his mind on his perfect buildings) for his properties, he would say F**k you, and not pay. He told Woodard it is similar to the Mob; they continue returning for more once you pay.

Introducing Sasha Cat & Daddy Dog
My First Work with a Children's Book Back in the spring of 2018 I had this strong yearning to write a children’s book. In 2015 I already had some experience With children’s books when I collaborated on a book called The Girl with the Magic Balloon. My friend Fernando Cobos beautifully illustrated the book and he came up with the idea for the story. I wrote the story using his outline, and I formatted the book. The book sold something like 25 whopping copies.

The King Of Elfland's Daughter
Introduction I wrote an example story for my December challenge and found a beautiful song sung by Mary Hopkin to accompany it. When I looked a little further into its source it led me to an album and the book that inspired it. This is a critique of the book and the album with some of the music I can find. Here is the story that has nothing to do with the book or the album, but just so you can see how this started.

The Magical Diary
Deep inside an ancient and dusty, old town-bookstore, existed a diary shrouded by secrets nobody dreamed they'd encounter. "The Magical Diary", that ordinary book nobody heard of—it was meant for people. Nobody has ever heard its presence. Such a book as the diary itself was magical to open such worlds and turned the daily life of one owner of the book into one great big adventure.

Book of Doors
If you love the book thief this is a definite read for you this book combines the thrill of reading with the fantasy of escape and that books are so much more than just books. Which honestly in today's world I think is needed especially considering that in America books are being banned for being books and expressing views which is just a whole another topic that I'm not gonna get into.

Love In The Mud
Love In The Mud Ep 1 I doubted it, I knew it was all a plot to lure me in. I remember all the lies that tickled my ears as truth at the time. I fell for it. I fell in love but it wasn't love. It was a trap, a trap to completely drain me, and a plot to kill me.
