In 1830, Thomas Bartholomew
Cantfield is shipwrecked on a small uncharted island in the
South Pacific. Alone and fearing that he may never be

Experiencing devastating
loneliness, ferocious pirate attacks, and the unexpected

magical bird, he comes to suspect that the island is a
wondrous and miraculous place that exists solely to take
care of him.
His incredible story unfolds
to tell a tale of adventure, mystery, and survival—and of an
indomitable will to persevere in the face of his most trying
challenge ever.
Join Thomas in
the wondrous account of a man determined to be more than he
was ever meant to
be.

Into the Light Boldly
. . . an odyssey of
self-discovery
NOW
AVAILABLE!
What happens after the lights finally go
out? Where do we go when the life force leaves the body?
What lies on the “other side” of this thing we call
mortal life? How should one live one’s life while
preparing to die? These are just some of man’s perennial
questions. With a careful look at the beliefs and
projections of many cultures, Val Edward Simone has
crafted a beautifully written page-turner of a story.
After a near-death experience in his
childhood which left him with a great curiosity in his
early 40s, Nathan McDaniel learns that he has only a few
months to find the answers to his own questions
regarding life after life, death and dying, bereavement
and the stages of grief, all the while trying to avoid
hospice care.
While presented with many insightful
experts who might teach him what he needs to learn
before making the transition, there is only one person
he comes to trust with his immortal soul — she’s a
hooker.
Unite with Nathan in his quest, his
odyssey, to discover the answers sought by his searching
spirit. Join him in both a reverent and irreverent look
at some of life’s greatest questions, including how one
can truly walk INTO THE LIGHT, BOLDLY?
This book is a true “gift” for anyone
coping with a terminal illness, bereavement, the
grieving process, or the stages of grief.

Captain
Delightable’s Magical Tales
of a
Minchon Warrior
NOW
AVAILABLE!
In the genre of Dan Millman’s “The Way of the Peaceful
Warrior”, join Captain Delightable on a gentle journey — a
story that traverses Space-Time and tells of a love that
grows through the ages — to discover what is real while
searching for the answer to one amazing question: What is
possible if one truly believes?
Former Ship’s Captain, Cornelius Alexander Delightable,
claims he is a 150-year-old Minchon Warrior. Personally
trained in Universal Truths and Values by the High Priest on
the mystical island of Minchon, he declares himself to be in
possession of special magical powers.
While his granddaughter worries the old man is suffering
from the ravaging effects of senility, she tries to manage
her life and the lives of her children without the aid of
her father and husband who were both killed in World War I.
The captain’s great-grandchildren, Robert and Wendy,
however, are convinced the captain’s every word is true.
See "Links" for the Artist Yoo Choong Yeul's artwork.
Thank you, my friend.

Falling
in Love
With My
Own Demise
Planned for 2017
There are some who
would say that together, firearms and a crazy lover are
she-demons best to be avoided. For me, both were love at
first sight. And the wild affair lasted years. It was a
delirious time for me. It was a glorious time for them. And
it served them well. Until their loving embrace nearly
destroyed me.
The echo of their words haunts me still.
Their adoring and terrible voice, their tender, enveloping
expressions beckoning me onward to my doom.
Their voice is sweet. Their voice is
pure. There is no deceit in their alluring words—they
want me dead!

My Life Before
the
Bottle Went
Dry
NOW
AVAILABLE!
“Zany, insane, crazy fun, and morbidly dark”
These are just some of the adjectives that will come to
your mind as you read the poems and short stories of Robert
Henry Walz.
Robert lived his whole existence in anticipation of one day
setting down his life experiences in a single book of poetry
and short stories.
From his “wild child” youth, through his terror-filled times
as a Marine in Vietnam, to his seemingly self-destructive
life that followed, Robert lived with a verve that can only
be expressed through his poetry and short stories contained
here.
Add to this, the zany attempt of “suicide by Taliban” when
he ventured into Afghanistan alone, only to discover the
value of life — that’s an adventure sure to excite. Still,
such a trip only served to scream all the more about what
Robert wanted in his life . . . to go out in a blaze of
glory. So, it is very strange that one who lived to die
ultimately discovered the joy of being alive. He expressed
this best through his unique artwork and writing.
You will laugh, you will cry, you will ask yourself why. The
crazy life of Robert Henry Walz is here in black and white
for all to enjoy . . . to accept or to reject.
Whatever
your final verdict, you will be entertained.
