Editing errors
Yes, I am still working out the editing errors. Basically, the third draft was published unedited (although and editor WAS paid and failed to do their job). I am aware of some editing errors and grammatical mistakes. The edited version should be uploaded soon.

| 5-Stars for creativity. I don't enjoy the horror genre, but this story reminded me of the Tom Cruise movie Collateral. The plot of both this book and the movie Collateral both follow the hollow, transactional nature of the societies that Max the taxi ...more | |

Romanticism for the true 'godmother of goth' While often listed as a secondary character in footnotes regarding the haunted summer of 1816, when Claire Clairmont passed away in Florence, Italy, in 1879 at the age of 80, she was buried with a piece of ...more |

Breathe into me.
Close the language-door
and open the love-window.
The moon won't use the door,
only the window.”

“To put Göbekli Tepe in context, its megaliths predate Stonehenge by at least six thousand years. They predate the first literate civilizations of Egypt, Sumer, India, and Crete by even more.
