Book Review: Blind Vision by Karen Fritz

A serial killer, a blind psychic, and a cop; Sounds like a set up for a bad joke, but it is a set up for a terrific book.

Losing his eyesight to a car accident gave Peter Cole a new sight. He uses this sight to help Detective Joe Carson solve a series of grisly murders.

This book is the debut offering from Ms. Fritz.

It his scary and funny, and has an amazing surprise ending. I know you will enjoy reading it as much as I did.

IT can be purchased at Amazon Kindle Books

Book Review: Bad Odds by Duke Davis

After serving in the U.S. Navy for six years, Bob Sloan is now a civilian contractor for the U.S. Army in Vietnam. He also spent four years in the civilian world fixing helicopters.

He is on his way to his first station, when his helicopter is shot down in the middle of nowhere.
This book is about his trials after surviving the crash.

Now, let me tell you a little about Mr. Davis. He is a Vietnam veteran, serving with distinction with a small group in the Navy. Maybe you have heard of them, The SEALS.

This book comes from the heart, it feels like you are actually there with Bob as he and Marine Lance Corporal, Steve Briscoe.

There were many time I caught myself (mentally) yelling at the characters to warn them.

You will enjoy this book, even if you do not care for historic or military fiction. I know I did.

Hey there! Long time, no see! :) Sorry it has been a while, but I've been fairly busy, and I had a few episodes of really deep depression, where I didn't really want to write anything. I did, however, get my autobiography turned in, even though it was not finished, but the social worker who requested it, needed it so she could get my case going. I have been working on it more, and plan to work even more. *L*

I still haven't really got started on my nevel, beyond what I've posted.

Well...

I need to get up early tomorrow morning because I have an early appointment. I'm actually thinking os asking my DARS case worker, if I can change theapists, to the lady who was facilitating the groups I went to a couple of weeks ago. She has more experience with ADD.

Well, I'll try to come back tomorrow.

Y'all take care! :)

I'm sorry for my long absence. I had a very busy week. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, I had meetings at a company called Prima ADD Corp, here in Dallas. They are an ADD specializing theapy group. Tuesday, I had a counseling session, and Thursday, I had a meds clinic. By the time I got home from these various bus rides, I was too tired to write anything. *L*

But I will get back to the business of writing this week.

I started a new website to promote my writing, but I'm not going to share the address just yet. First off, it's not near ready for public perusal. *L* Second, I don't have any writing to promote, as of yet. :)

Well...

I'm off now, as it's nearly supper-time, here at the Lewis household, and I will be needed to help set it up. ;) What'd they do while I was in Pennsylvania? ;)

I'll send out another blog tomorrow.

Until then, my friends, take care!

Okay, first off, I'd like to wish all the mothers out there, Happy Mother's day! :)

Yes, even my ex's. *LOL*

Anyway...

I didn't get any writing done today, but I started doing some research. I'm researching Female Serial Killers. I found out there are a lot more than I realized!

If anyone out there, knows where I can get some material along those lines, let me know.

Thanks!

Until tomorrow!
