    Coming to the table late for a share of the American pie can lead to a lot of misunderstandings, especially coming from different cultures. Who or what should influence the appropriation of a slice of pie? God or culture? The answer can be funny or heartbreaking when the people involved already come to the table with a set of ideas that are more subjective than objective, but firmly ingrained. Be entertained. I was born on the Island of Guadeloupe (FWI), Immigrated to the US in 1990, lives in Pennsylvania. However, before all I am a disciple of Jesus; everything I do is influenced by that.

    My book is titled On Dark Matter and is a collection of seventy-two poems. I have had a couple of poems published here and there and write poetry as a hobby. My poems are to be considered an extension of my thoughts and are meant to stimulate the reader's thought process. They are in no way intended to portray any particular belief system or lack thereof, but rather are for the entertainment of thought! Leon Scarlett was born in St. Elizabeth, Jamaica and currently reside in New Jersey U.S.A. I have been writing poetry for nearly as long as I can remember, but have been doing so only as a hobby. I've had a few poems published and I studied fine arts in college. I view poetry as an art form. The only difference is; instead of using paint, palette-knife and brush, words are used to portray the feeling you wish to express. This is the first book of my anthology. I hope anyone that chooses to read it may enjoy the experience and that my poetry may help your mind become more susceptible to my open process of thought. I hope that you may find my book interesting to say the least! Apart from writing I also enjoy drawing and painting as well as miniature model building too. I am a Father of three and a Grandfather to two amazing grandchildren.

    A mystery is to me the one subject that draws you into a good story. It's the nagging question of what will happen next that most people are looking for when reading or watching a mystery show. This is the main reason I wrote this novel, to pull you into another world of murder mystery. This novel starts off at trying to solve your typical murder, but as the story goes on I get away from the typical if you will. I wanted to write something that is not the typical or the usual. I wanted my readers to get away from telling themselves I already know what's going to happen. The main character Hank Keys is to me not your average detective, as your reading you'll see that his methods on solving a case are again not your typical way, but affected. This murder mystery has a lot of twist and surprises and I also put in some personal quotes that I feel that a lot of people can relate to. So some things up I chose to name this novel Seven Sins because each one them relates to every one of my characters as well as all of us. I'm sure you realize that the word obsession is in red, but don't get ahead just yet. You have to read the novel to get what it means.... it's not just your typical word. A little about myself, I'm just your normal average person. Depends on what your definition of normal is. I'm your average man born and raised in Shreveport, Louisiana. I grow up in the country, so I guess you can say I'm a young man with an old soul. I own my own Irrigation business which it is a family business. In my spare time I work out a lot and enjoy anime from time to time. Yes, that may be weird to some but it's my stress reliever. Writing was something I was told to do from my family. Through-out this pandemic I was told to do something I never did before something new. I've always enjoyed a good mystery so I figure I'd try and write one. I don't have a website but I am working on getting one if everything goes well, so fingers crossed.

    As I stand strong before you, I stand with a man who has always been there for me. The man who has strengthened me in ways only He could. The Man who continues to show me His unconditional love. As I stand, this Man gave his only begotten son. As I stand strong before you, I stand with someone who sacrificed everything for me. Someone without hesitation gave his life for me and my sins. Someone who was stretched wide, nailed to a cross, abused, misused, abandoned, and betrayed. Still like the dawn He rose. He rose and He gave what no one could give another, his Spirit. As I stand strong before you, I stand with a feeling of confidence. A confidence which has been embedded in me from the very start. The gift of Jesus. It is the Holy Spirit. I stand in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control. So, as I stand with three powerful forces with me, I've trusted all three and they have never failed me. You may not physically see them, you may not physically hear them, you may not physically touch them, BUT look at Who's Standing. I have been placed in many fires and have come out unburned and without a scent of smoke. I'm a Wounded Warrior Newly Nourished Making Meaningful Movements.

    Just how does she wear it well? With all the pressures of life that every woman will endure, there comes a point where her focus must shift from outward appearances and personal accomplishments to the inner person- the very essence of the woman God designed her to be. She Wears It Well is written for the woman who desires to find her fulfillment in a deep and abiding relationship with Christ Jesus. Whether single, married, divorced, or widowed, the essential qualities outlined in this book such as faithfulness, creativity, excellence, and strength, are attributes every woman can wear better than high-end make-up, trendy attire, or even a sassy pair of shoes. Each of the essential qualities is featured in its own chapter with a discussion of its relevance to the current times in which we live from a biblical context, followed by a profile of a woman in the Bible who wears it well. Every chapter concludes with a practical application of how the quality can be cultivated so that every woman can realize her fullest potential. The art of wearing it well is critical to being satisfied with who you are, and where you are in this glorious season of your life. Andrea J. Dixon-Seahorn, Ed.

A giant owl the size of a tree so adept at camouflage it can practically disappear. A nocturnal race of tiny, melon-headed feral humans who roam the woods looking for victims to feast on.
