I don't feel just ranting on the page works anymore, as there's just too much tech pizzazz to be utilized now; for example, Howard Stern rants into the microphone, but he's able to use a circus of sound effects and guest interviews to make it come alive. So instead of just literary freedom movement rhetoric, I provide snapshot characters and dialogue moments to bring home the message, which is, in essence the artist's job. Marcus is the usual main character; along with his wife or girlfriend. He's either a Substitute Teacher, a waiter, commercial painter, delivery driver or an indoor / outdoor Plant Technician. He's in his mid to late twenties, eitherstill attending college or just graduated. He has his Third Eye open, and he's always venting to a friend or wife or girlfriend. From Disneyland to Jim Morrison, technology or the weakness of Indian Writers, Dannov gets In the Ring and means to fight.
Crazy Mary is a childhood memoir, which takes place in Orange County, California back in the late seventies/early eighties. Marcus must endure the death of his mother while living in the topsy-turvy suburbs with his older brother and father. Marcus' mother suffers from a rare nerve disease; she tragically goes from crutches; to a wheelchair; to a Nursing Home; to her final passing. He must face the perils of growing-up without his mother's care eventually having to accept an unloving stepmother. Crazy Mary is a drunk, who lives next door to Marcus' family; she'd babysat him when he was a toddler. Marcus' life seems to represent the woman's depressive pandemonium, as she frantically knocks and shouts at his front door one afternoon: "where are my babies "
Marcus is a college student, who gets Red-Pilled after taking LSD with a high school buddy. From Long Beach neighborhood exploring to San Pedro cliffs to grocery stores to Grateful Dead shows in Vegas Marcus learns the psychedelic experience is a metaphorical Matrix Ride through the grid.
A young man just out of college marries a Southern Belle, and after being bit by a large lizard on his wedding night, he goes through many months of delirium, finding himself lured into a labyrinth of lust by a model. A dark, mysterious, puzzle-piece on who this femme-fatale really is, is the final clue to Marcus finding-out a hidden secret about himself.

The Three Most Important Things to Teach Our Children

If someone asked you, what are the three most important things to teach our children, what would you say? "Don't steal? Don't smoke? Don't do drugs? I don't know" How would you know? It is all subjective. What about if the richest and wisest man in history wrote a book to his son and taught him almost 200 times on one subject in one book? How important would that be? What do you think that topic is? This book will give you the top three things that Solomon taught his son, and each topic has seven lessons for each topic.
"What can I say about a collection featuring a singing and dancing papaya, a pesky street character known as Noman, a Vaudeville mime artist who performs in an A road lay-by and a Flat Earth advocate, to mention only a few? When people put me on the spot and ask me what my poems are about, I am usually lost for words. But then I am often lost for words. Conversation isn't really my thing. Perhaps that's why I write poems in the first place. Papaya Fantasia is a bus journey, it's a variety show, a long wave broadcast, a comedy-horror B film and a cut-up autobiography."- David Mark Williams

Dog Whistles, Walk-Backs, and Washington Handshakes

To the amusement of the pundits and the regret of the electorate, our modern political jargon has become even more brazenly two-faced and obfuscatory than ever. Where once we had Muckrakers, now we have Bed-Wetters. Where Blue Dogs once slept peaceably in the sun, Attack Dogs now roam the land. During election season—a near constant these days—the coded rhetoric of candidates and their spin doctors, and the deliberately meaningless but toxic semiotics of the wing nuts and backbenchers, reach near-Orwellian levels of self-satisfaction, vitriol, and deceit. The average NPR or talk radio listener, MSNBC or Fox News viewer, or blameless New York Times or Wall Street Journal reader is likely to be perplexed, nonplussed, and lulled into a state of apathetic resignation and civic somnolence by the rapid-fire incomprehensibility of political pronouncement and commentary—which is, frankly, putting us exactly where the pundits want us. Dog Whistles, Walk-Backs, and Washington Handshakes is a tonic and a corrective. It is a reference and field guide to the language of politics by two veteran observers that not only defines terms and phrases but also explains their history and etymology, describes who uses them against whom, and why, and reveals the most telling, infamous, amusing, and shocking examples of their recent use. It is a handbook of lexicography for the Wonkette and This Town generation, a sleeker, more modern Safire's Political Dictionary, and a concise, pointed, bipartisan guide to the lies, obfuscations, and helical constructions of modern American political language, as practiced by real-life versions of the characters on House of Cards.

"This is what I call a testimony book...this is one of the better testimony books I've read"P. Luna BlogTalkRadioDavid's mark - A Boy's story of Abuse in 1970's AmericaDavid's mark is the novelization of the life of the author. DeWayne Watts started out his life in what appeared to be a perfect family, then at age 6 the thread in the tapestry was pulled and all quickly became dark.He does not go into graphic accounts of sexual abuse but instead leaves it up to the reader to know what happened. The book has been called a "tastefully presented account of a horrible life of a child".He tells the account of his life without the use of profanity or detailed accounts of sexual abuse. Instead he focuses on the thoughts and feelings he experienced at the time and attempts to help the reader to fully understand the fear that a boy faces in a house of abuse and the fear that paralyzed his mama.He takes the reader through several states to end up in Houston Texas in 1976. It was during this time that his father saw the profit in using him at age 9 for money. Many boys used in the mid-1970's in Houston for the sex trade were street walkers, portable convertible van boys, or cheap motel boys, but a few were held out for the elite that visited Texas. DeWayne had blond hair and hazel eyes, he was small framed and retained a look of innocence and boys with these characteristics were set apart and taken to the most opulent homes in the Houston area. DeWayne and a few of his friends were in this group.Many boys were killed in various acts, killed themselves or were killed to ensure secrets were kept. David's mark ends with such an account. To this day many deaths of boys in the 1970's remain cold cases and sadly always will. No one cared form them than and it remains so to this day. Boys as young as 5 and as old as 18 were murdered and wrote off by the police as run-aways, drug overdoses, suicides, or street kids who starved to death. The facts were that most were murdered after their usefulness was exhausted.DeWayne still lives in a state of concern for the past, a past he has yet to leave behind.

Let Me Take You Down: Inside the Mind of Mark David Chapman, the Man Who Killed John Lennon

Villard Books

A top crime journalist reveals precisely how the world-shattering murder of John Lennon happened--and why In Let Me Take You Down, Jack Jones penetrates the borderline world of dangerous fantasy in which Mark David Chapman stalked and killed Lennon: Mark David Chapman rose early on the morning of December 8 to make final preparations. . . . Chapman had neatly arranged and left behind a curious assortment of personal items on top of the hotel dresser. In an orderly semicircle, he had laid out his passport, an eight-track tape of the music of Todd Rundgren, his little Bible, open to The Gospel According to John (Lennon). He left a letter from a former YMCA supervisor at Fort Chaffee, Arkansas, where five years earlier, he had worked with refugees from the Vietnam War. Beside the letter were two photographs of himself surrounded by laughing Vietnamese children. At the center of the arrangement of personal effects, he had placed the small Wizard of Oz poster of Dorothy and the Cowardly Lion. "I woke up knowing, somehow, that when I left that room, that was the last time I would see the room again," Chapman recalled. "I truly felt it in my bones. I don't know how. I had never seen John Lennon up to that point. I only knew that he was in the Dakota. But I somehow knew that it was it, this was the day. So I laid out on the dresser at the hotel room . . . just a tableau of everything that was important in my life. So it would say, 'Look, this is me. Probably, this is the real me. This is my past and I'm going, gone to another place.' "I practiced what it was going to look like when police officers came into the room. It was like I was going through a door and I knew I was going to go through a door, the poet's door, William Blake's door, Jim Morrison's door. . . . I was leaving what I was, going into a future of uncertainty." Praise for Let Me Take You Down "Jack Jones has written a beautiful book, rare in its attention to the social context giving rise to stalkers and assassins of celebrities . . . celebrity worship is ambivalent--admiration shares the altar with envy. When the worshipped disappoints, a 'nobody' can become a 'somebody' by killing the pop culture idol. Let Me Take You Down is both fascinating and brilliant."--Ladd Wheeler, Professor of Psychology, University of Rochester, Former President of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology
