This dark and edgy tale is a true-to-life account about the brutal experiences a group of foster children and handicapped men encounter in a foster home. Numerous foster children and mentally-challenged men are brutally beaten at the hands of evil and cold-hearted foster parents. The home is scrupulously unsanitary, with large rats and cockroaches nesting throughout the house. The diabolical foster father, J. D. Willingham, proves extremely abusive by brutally raping a fourteen year old innocent and helpless foster girl. She is taken away and sent to another foster home. Social service authorities are apprehensive about bringing more foster children to the home after the occurrence of the senseless rape. The cycle of abuse doesn’t stop there. J. D. then impregnates another foster girl after she is manipulated into giving in to his strong sexual advances. The foster mother, Bessie Mae Willingham, suspects her husband is a rapist and child molestor. She threatens to end his life by placing a loaded pistol to his head. After suffering a fatal stroke due to her failing health, the appropriate child care services are contacted and the notorious foster parenting home is finally shut down. Based on a powerfully true story, the facts take the reader deep into the inner sanctums of an insanely brutal foster home where the specter of abuse and neglect lurks. [more]

Tales of Crime & Violence are a collection of three books of my short, and not so short stories. The ideas and inspiration are many and as varied as each of the individual tales themselves. Although all the stories in these books are about committing crime, or being involved in acts of violence, the real story is of the people involved, why and how they came to be in this position, whether they were forced or coerced, willing participants or victims themselves. Are they committing the crime, or are they simply the victims... sometimes it is not so easy to tell. [more]

I am soulless, cruel, and have no heart. I do not feel anything when I take their souls. They deserve it as their souls are impure. These dirty humans have souls whereas, I, do not. I cannot contain my jealousy towards them as they can die as they please whereas, I, cannot. I was once a mere mortal who loved a Goddess but I was betrayed and turned into something beautiful but hideous for eternity as my soul left me and lie asleep for eternity somewhere in the dark abyss. My beauty is lethal as I can deceive my prey. I have lived far more than any human can apprehend and I cannot remember how it feels to be a human and this little girl, an innocent beauty, a mere mortal, I should loathe, take her soul, and leave her dead cold. But why am I hesitating? Her innocent blue eyes and her bright smile is illuminating my darkness. I, Endymion, is a soulless immortal, must take her filthy soul with no hesitation and regret...

The first twelve chapters of the Gospel of Luke are beautifully illustrated in this 48-page comic book. From modern applications (a teller’s window through which Matthew does his tax-collecting) to a bit of tongue-in-cheek (the angel Gabriel dressed as Superman), readers are challenged to consider passage after passage in an entirely new light. This is the first of two volumes which cover the entire Gospel. Across the bottom of each page are the relevant passages from the King James Version, so readers can compare for themselves, to decide if the illustrations and modern text are a fair interpretation of the original.
