 | Sheltered | Dennis J Pale | Novel | Humor | 4 | n/a | May 15, 2012 |
Summary:SHELTERED is a novel about a handful of schizophrenic psychiatric patients that live together in a secure hospital, based on my extensive life experience of mental hospitals, jails and sheltered workshops. Although SHELTERED is a comedy, it is based mostly on fact and does not hold back from the grim truth of being a forensic patient charged with a serious crime. This is not the grandiose crap that TV constantly vomits up; there's more than enough truth to make you feel uneasy without stupid theatrics.Chapters: |

Summary:this is the story of Ana's troubled mother, Szuszanna, a hungarian girl who marries a wealthy american businessman.
her daughter Ana, of course, is the main character in my novella "It's Ana, Just Ana"
i appreciate any and all feedback. should these two stories be coupled into a 2-part novel? so far, it's got more of a romancenovel-ish feel to it, but i'd like opinion on that as well. thanks, and enjoy!Chapters: |

Summary:In Search of Mr. Wonderful, The Journey from Myth to Madness
Romance / Adult
To Invite Love, You Must Love Yourself First
Syvanna Lee knows what she wants—an everlasting love, her own “Mr. Wonderful.� Yet in her precarious quest to find such a man, she refuses to listen to the truth of her inner voice and ends up disappointed time and again. Each “Mr. Somebody� Syvanna becomes involved with opens a new chapter in her life. Each new relationship causes her to look at herself from a different perspective. Each new lover unveils previously unexplored facets of her own personality. She is ready for love, but will she ever realize that to give love, receive love, or even demand love, she must love herself first?
And if Syvanna would only take a moment to listen to her inner voice, she might learn an important truth. As the tale unfolds, an ominous secret from Syvanna’s childhood rises to the surface, a secret that may ultimately kill her.
In Search of Mr. Wonderful is a tale of heartbreak, self-destruction, desperation, and, ultimately, of transformation and discovery. Ms. Bouvier has written a novel of intense beauty and introspection that will stay with you long after you’ve turned the final page.
REVIEWERS PLEASE NOTE: I will be adding chapters daily until the whole manuscript has been submitted. There are a lot!!! Stay tuned!!Chapters: |

Summary:This is an attempt to portray my view of a homeless vet. I can only hope I do him justice. I don't want it to sound sappy or cliche so do your job and let me have it if I didn't capture this with the honor due.
I see these men all the time in Seattle and surrounding towns.
What works? What doesn't? I will rework this until it is worthy.Chapters: |
