You might also w...I must say it is a superb post. <br /><br />You might also want to meet the classic author duo L. Hart and Olivia Rupprecht who have already created a classic novel before: "THERE WILL BE KILLING".<br /><br />They are back with a bang with another novel which introduces the twist of murder and money in the most thrilling way that one could image.<br /><br />The new novel I am talking about is titled: "Making a Killing"<br /><br />In case you want to know a short description of the story, here lies the summary:<br />The CIA’s most valuable assassin, Agent J.D. Mikel, wasn’t supposed to fall in love with anyone – especially not Kate Morningside, a woman coveted by another powerful world player. When Kate is kidnapped, J.D. is pulled into a dangerous game of cat and mouse, and one false move could cost him everything. Indeed, there are players – and then there are the masters who make the rules only to break them.<br />It’s not an even match for those joining an epic search for Kate on a twisted dark hunt down the Mekong River in the midst of a bitterly disputed war: Izzy, a brilliant young psychiatrist assigned to the Army’s 8th Field Hospital and counting the days until he can return home; and his best friend Gregg, a gifted psychologist who served his time only to be driven back to Vietnam by his own inner demons and a rivalry with Mikel that burns as intensely as napalm.<br /><br />There are other wars within wars in turbulent 1970. From the CIA to the American mafia to an International cartel helmed by a master of the sadistic, all eyes are on Southeast Asia’s Golden Triangle. And when it comes to a certain cash crop flourishing under the dominion of the mysterious Poppy King, everyone wants a piece of the action. Money talks. The currency? Heroin. It’s a spinning maze of intrigue, politics, and mind games; a hotbed where sex, drugs, and Janis Joplin aren't always a beautiful thing. But even when no one turns out to be quite who or what they seem, one rule remains fast across the Devil’s chessboard: Winners live. Losers die.<br /><br />The sequel to the national bestseller THERE WILL BE KILLING, MAKING A KILLING artfully weaves a spellbinding tapestry of dark history, psychology, and seduction – the best and worst of our humanity . . . and the hunger of our hearts.<br /><br />In case you are being a bit too curious to know about the novel, take yourself through to the following page:<br />http://thestoryplant.com/our-authors/ohn-l-hart-ph-d-and-olivia-rupprecht/our-authorsohn-l-hart-ph-d-and-olivia-rupprechtthere-will-be-killing/<br /><br />Thanks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-34543958397686733292016-08-11T16:25:18.133-04:002016-08-11T16:25:18.133-04:00Please send me a code at respkaren@gmail.com.

And so eloquently written. The songbird cannot remain silent for fear its song vanishes in the wind. Nor can a writer stifle her art. Countless story corpses lay buried in slush piles. Millions of books get stripped of their covers and returned naked to their houses. Our words might trickle away unnoticed. Time threatens to fade even our printed pages into illegible tomes. Whether a single human eye acknowledges our work, we must write. Words flow as our song, for that is how we were made. Though we care enough about our craft to serve with excellence, writers must not allow fickle marketplaces to paralyze their art. Thank you for persevering through the challenges and sharing your prose with the world. I appreciate your willingness to share precious words in this post and am grateful for the opportunity to receive your literary offer. humbleauthor@yahoo.comtyeagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17295542617668585878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-50832197334781121002016-08-11T13:14:35.275-04:002016-08-11T13:14:35.275-04:00Yes, please send me a copy at yvonne@yvoneortega.c...Yes, please send me a copy at yvonne@yvoneortega.comYvonne Ortegahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344911036525681530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-83624833820958263242016-08-11T11:48:14.384-04:002016-08-11T11:48:14.384-04:00Mr. Adler ... I'm currently reading "Max ...Mr. Adler ... I'm currently reading "Max Perkins, Editor of Genius" which the movie "Genius" is based upon. I've learned so much about the industry I've somehow managed to become a part of these past twenty years ... about those who paved the road before me (and us). Part of me wishes to have been a fly on the proverbial wall (or is it a proverbial fly on the office wall of Perkins at Scribners?) or to have somehow caught the genius eye of old Max himself. Then again, most of these writers didn't hit pay dirt until after they died. F. Scott Fitzgerald, for example, never knew that his Gatsby would be made into not only one, but two movies and that his work would become required reading in high schools across the U.S. <br /><br />So ... maybe not.<br /><br />We often say, "If only one person is changed," but really that's fluff. Sure, if one person is changed we can beam a little, but that's not what we really want, as you said. We hope ... we PRAY ... that someone will find a copy of our work in a used bookstore a hundred years from now and say to the one standing next to them, "Oh, my gosh... I can't believe I found this ... I've searched high and low for a copy of..." <br /><br />Instead we find our books in used bookstores TODAY and realize that the person whose name we inscribed on the title page thought getting a quarter or credit toward another book a better option than owning our blood, sweat, and tears.<br /><br />Oh, well ...<br /><br />I thoroughly enjoyed your piece here, especially when you drew "Ole Max" into it! <br /><br />And I thank you for your generosity: PenNhnd@aol.comEva Marie Eversonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15159409003924304308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-45313446030572553302016-08-11T06:57:03.079-04:002016-08-11T06:57:03.079-04:00Edie and Warren, I love audio books and Warren'...Edie and Warren, I love audio books and Warren's writing. my email godsfruit@juno.com Thank you for your generosity.truthtoshine.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911184699045569514noreply@blogger.com
