 | THIS HAPPENED A WHILE BACK | Justi Moody | Poetry | Religion and Spirituality | 5 | 0.73 | Jan 13, 2012 |
Summary:I am not fanatic about anything. I am passionate about almost anything I enjoy very much. I am not a religious person, but I am a Christian who lived almost 50 years knowing all about God from books, classes, being in church and whatever. After that age I met God and got to know him on a first name basis and I do enjoy writing about my faith. It is not to offend you but to share my joy hope you will enjoy it too. Chapters: |
 | The Remarkable Martin Faulkner | Esteban Luis Soto | Novel | Fantasy | 2 | n/a | Oct 30, 2011 |
Summary:Martin Faulkner is a moral deviant of the spiritual realm yet an extremely successful businessman in the “Psychic Arts.” He is a vile man, yet the best (or worst depending on your point of view) of his kind. Since his childhood, he was gifted with extraordinary psychic abilities but his one true weakness is preying on the recently deceased souls of the young and desperate. His favorites are those of young Native Americans that perish from disease in the San Marcos Pueblo across the river from him.
Johnathon Bergstrom is a freelance journalist hired to document the life and impending demise of Faulkner but instead finds himself psychically trapped in Faulkner’s mansion, in Santa Fe, where he must fight for his life to escape. In doing so, he finds himself in the loving protection of the spiritually powerful San Marcos Pueblo people of whom Faulkner intends to buy lucrative, expiring water rights from. If Faulkner succeeds, the humble Pueblo and its rich culture and history will surely perish.
Bergstrom finds unexpected love in the Pueblo and attempts to hide and save her from the ever-growing psychic power of Faulkner while, at the same time, rediscovering and developing his self-hidden psychic gift. As the date for buying the water rights quickly approaches, Bergstrom and the Pueblo leaders must rely on the Hunter’s Moon to launch their spiritual attack against him. A time when Faulkner is his weakest and they are their strongest. However, the ultimate sacrifice must be made to ensure their success and save their people.

 | Children of Light | CharlieB | Novel | Fantasy | 3 | n/a | Jun 16, 2011 |
Summary:This is different for me, but I've always wanted to write something like this.
Skylar Crandon is like any rebellious teenage boy, enjoying his youth. Then on his seventeenth birthday, everything in his world changes. His body has transformed, the world around him appears different, and no one is there to answer any questions. Until Eva.
She knows what he is, and she offers answers if only he follows her to a secret underground group filled with others who are just like him. A vastly new world is presented to him, along with the knowledge that he could never go back to his normal life again. But he does have a choice. He can stay with people like him, and become what he was always meant to be, or he can live on the run in the world he doesn’t want to give up.
He knows he’s never going to stay in a world he was so forcefully pushed into, but the more time he spends learning about them, and spending time with Eva, the more he realizes that his decision is going to impact more than just his life.
I changed the rating to R because of graphic violence and the language that Skylar and Aaron use.Chapters: |
 | The Valley of the Dry Bones | radley | Novel | Young Adult | 5 | n/a | May 6, 2011 |
Summary:This is a story about some teenagers who head out on a camping trip over the weekend. They run into some other teens who they know from school and, together, they come upon the 'Valley of the Dry Bones' that one of them's dad had warned them about. This is a story of adventure, young love, teenage discovery, redemption, and salvation.
This is my first writing, so let me have it! :) But, please be gentle, it is sort of my baby and has some meaning behind it. One thing I know, in particular, that I need help on is that I've never written fiction, so I'm not sure if the way I've done the dialogue is correct. Also, I know the language is a little stilted in places, but I wasn't sure how to shore it up. So, I am giving you my virgin draft and I will appreciate your thoughts, ideas, corrections, and advice. Thank you - RadleyChapters: |
 | Goopeater | Reenita | Novel | Young Adult | 4 | n/a | Feb 7, 2011 |
Summary: The Goopeater is the magical coming-of-age tale of Arya, a 13-year-old boy from San Francisco who is tormented by bullies in the school for eating "goop".
In the wake of an accident that has left his once-vibrant mother a husk of her former self, Arya clings to the only bond left: an old, battered copy of an ancient book about good versus evil. One night, he is sucked through a crack in his floorboards and drawn into a magical world. Guided by the book which is the very last copy left, he travels the land, meeting a sage who has walked the earth since the beginning of time, monkey warriors and fearsome demons. Arya soon discovers that this new world is, in fact, an old world, and that he has stepped into the story of the Ramayana, the setting and characters before him mirroring the pages of the book that he prizes so dearly.
When his book is stolen by the villain of the story, the demon king Anavaar, who wants to erase history and rewrite it from his own vantage point, Arya must embark on his own quest to retrieve the beloved keepsake. Aided by a mysterious Medicine Woman and guided by the principles of ancient warrior training, he overcomes the trials of the demons. In facing his fears, he learns that the Medicine Woman is indeed an embodiment of his mother's Higher Self, the true soul of the kind and vibrant mother he remembers, and that Anavaar is actually a conglomerate of the bullies that torment his daily existence.
Realizing that he is not alone and coming to terms with his heritage, Arya is able to move forward with the battle, accept his mother's death, and finally go home where he is no longer known as the Goopeater. Chapters: |

 | Death-The End or The Beginning? Edited February 19, 2009. | Dur Shacho | Poetry | Religion and Spirituality | 3 | 1.57 | Feb 11, 2008 |
Summary:This piece is presented solely to encourage thought. The questions asked-I suspect, have been asked since the emergence of conscience, thinking mankind. Obviously there are no definitive answers to these questions. However, as death is truly the only inevitable, universal experience that all creation experiences, perhaps it's worth asking these and many other questions. If nothing else realizing that your questions are shared is of value, isn't it? At least that is the motivation that prompted this poem. It is the last in a series of five poems that started with 'Why God?' Chapters: |
