My 2nd novel is going to be released very soon. It's a financial-political conspiracy suspense thriller. It's very good with a very layered plot. I am just getting acquainted with Goodreads. I am still in the process of adding my books as I am on many social sites.

Thank you to all of you that are following me on Goodreads. I am trying to build up more name ID as an Author. My 2nd novel should be released very soon.

The Financial Parallax & The Shadow Faction are available on eBook & on amazon.com The Financial Parallax is only about 50 or 60 pages on eBook. It's a short novel.

The book is smart. I can't say I agree with all of it, but about 70 % of it. He has many great ideas. There are five that could pass by separate Ballot Proposals in MI. : Stoppage of Gerrymandering, Slow Rate of Growth of Government, Juror Pay = $15/hour, Stop Teacher Tenure, & Banning MI. Lobbying by Former Politicos/Former MI. Government Employees. I believe in Direct Democracy on many things like this. But it will be interesting to see how the MI. Constitutional Convention plays out in 2026. Will MI. create a new Constitution ??

Ayn Rand was a controversial Writer in the 1950's, 60's, & 70's. She brought up some great points re freedom & government waste. But had a large aversion to needed state involvement in people's lives. The Myths of Hustle Culture & the Self-Made Person contributed heavily to her popularity in the 1950's. But we still need a Social Safety Net such as the programs of Social Security, SSI, SSDI, Medicare, & Medicaid. I did a video re this on You Tube & Rumble with the same title. Rand's legacy may be as a promoter of Free Speech just like Charlie Kirk & Taylor Caldwell. Most of her ideas are a whole other subject.

I was a big fan of the CBC Show "Being Erica" which ran from 2009-2011. The show was a Character Study about growing as a person by improving your life & learning from your mistakes especially re relationships. Erica was played by Canadian Actress Erin Karpluk. Karpluk did a great job with complex social issues. The show reminded me a lot of the NBC Show "Providence" which ran from the late 90's to about the early 2000's. Providence, R.I. is one of my fav cities. There are fairly substantial rumors that an American remake is in the works. I'm not sure why; when they got it right the first time. The famous quote by the famous American Actress Joan Crawford sums up the crux of the show, & I'm paraphrasing: "When it comes to love; you never can tell if it will warm your heart or burn down your house." One of my videos next week will be on this show on my News Channels: RUM NEWS on Rumble & BINSNEWS on You Tube. That show can help people.

Caldwell was one of my fav authors. She essentially wrote Roman a Clefs. She knew how the real world worked. I read four of her very famous novels. The plots usually revolved re idea that the Globe was run by a bunch of rich bankers & other rich people. Her best book was "The Captains & The Kings", & this book was also about the Globalists or the precursor to them depending on how you look at it. Her ideas showed that the rich & the state can have too much power at the same time along with other factions of power. Some of the novels in a lot of ways were about public morality. Recently, I did a video detailing why Caldwell wrote better books than Ayn Rand. They are on RUM NEWS on Rumble & BINSNEWS on You Tube.
