Janine Verduci has been writing poetry, for as long as she can remember. If it was a special moment or lifetime event, she would always try to capture the splendor of the situation with words that intrigue and inspire. In fact, she still loves sharing the written word of poetry today. She is not only known for her beautifully written poetic works, but also her two Youth Christian books entitled, Jillian Foster's: Forgiven, which reflects the elements of anti-bullying and forgiveness and Michael Conway's: Acceptance, which preaches acceptance and anti-prejudice behavior. Now, for the first time, you will get to read the poetic works of Janine, captured in time and entitled: The Time Capsule. A time capsule is supposed to hold the most important artifacts of a given time period. So too does this book, but over many time periods in Janine's life. This piece of art allows the reader to delve into the priceless moments that define her Christian faith, love, inspiration, and family. Let this book become your table top treasure of words that define the depth of any given moment and the true meaning of the celebration of life's most precious events.
”Åtta ungdomar lämnar sina studier och sitt liv i ett samhälle där utvecklingen enligt deras mening har avvikit från den mänskliga rytmen och där samhällsmaskineriet vill pressa människor in i en ny och för henne främmande form … vill beskriva människans oro, hennes storhetsdrömmar och desperata försök att ge sig själv allt större betydelse och den fångenskap eller desorientering detta kan leda henne till och som bokens gestalter försöker att undfly. Men han beskriver också kluvenheten som finns inom varje individ. Människans ständiga strävan till medvetenhet och självkontroll sida vid sida med djurisk sinnlighet, kamplust och fruktan. I romanen finns inget belagt med tabu. Den kommer att stöta många. Andra finner den kanske allvarlig och äkta i tonen.” ”Det fattas en dimension hos människorna i John Hedbergs och Inger Alfvéns romaner och författarna vill ha det så. De vill skildra torftigheten och glädjelösheten hos människodjuret, som består av kropp och själ men också ande: John Hedberg uttrycker det så här i Janine: ´Vi skulle ha tillgång till en gud nu, Vicki, och ett paradis efter detta, men det tillhör utvecklingens tidigare manipulationer. Dina enda möjligheter fanns på jorden, i dina sinnen och deras upplevelser av livet … det finns inte längre någon helig ande vi kan anbefalla dig till. Det kristna skulle varit något här på jorden mellan oss. Nu är allt för sent, och vi är alla skuld till det.” Birgit Cars, Östgöta-C. “Behovet av att fly är ett av de stora litterära motiven genom alla tider, gestaltat i otaliga förklädnader … Janine är en allegori om ungdomar som gör ett klassiskt experiment, drar sig undan livets krav till en paradisö … en tar livet av sig, några vänder tillbaka i panik … bara två av de nio är lyckliga tillsammans och dessa blir i slutet av boken offer för ett svartsjukemord. Sensmoral: Det går inte att fly samtiden och världen … alla är vi oåterkalleligt programmerade av samhällsmaskineriet.” Ruth Halldén, DN. “Också över den momentana lyckan kastar elektronhjärnan sin skugga. Trots att ungdomarna vill glömma det gamla maskinstyrda samhället är de under dess bann… personliga aggressioner och självhävdelsebegär träder fram på nytt … lyckodrömmen blir ingen räddning … utlöser i stället en katastrof. Och härigenom får boken ett skärande disackord. Den förespeglar en utväg som visar sig vara en återvändningsgränd … människan är vanmäktig inför sin egen skapelse. Hon är datamaskinernas slav. Bokens främsta förtjänst är språket som är mjukt, klart och smidigt. Det har ett eget liv som fängslar… en utpräglad sensualism utmärker beskrivningen av kroppar och könsakter som blir nästan fysiskt förnimbara. En tydlig dramatik och brutal påtaglighet kännetecknar den slutliga katastrofen.” Knut Lagrup, Östersunds Posten.
Paradise: warm, wet, wild. It's the locale of which dreams are made, a once-forgotten Pacific-Ocean dependency of the British crown, rejuvenated in recent years by an influx of new ideas and old money. Jonnie Comet's serial adventure collection, A Tale Of Two Paradises, lets the rest of the world in on what life is really like in a remote tropical archipelago at the turn of the 21st century. Sweet Janine Hewlett is just a normal 2nd-form girl growing up in the most exotic territory on earth, taking it all in stride. When her friend Sally introduces her to older, desirable Charlie, the inevitable enlightenment soon leads to a surprise birthday gift... and the social and emotional entanglements afterwards. Both Janine and Charlie will have to alter their attitudes and expectations to have a go at a real relationship. Intelligent and conservative, young Janine narrates her own coming-of-age saga from wide-eyed innocence to healthy scepticism with modesty, eagerness, compassion... and startling candour. Read on, if you dare, but remember: in Paradise, all things are possible. This deluxe compilation volume from Surf City Source (Third Edition) features the novella The Initiation of Janine, which opens the story arc, as well as the further episodes Janine's First Date, Janine's Growing Pains and Janine's Night to Remember, plus addenda from The Essential Paradise, the setting's sourcebook. Further information about this fascinating fantasy/fiction realm is available at The British Paradise Islands Wikia, now online.

Janine was raised to be a passive and obedient wolf shifter and to always put the will of The Elders before her own-a will that she never questioned until the one day she was instructed to become the mate of a man she didn't love, and who didn't love her. Fed up with rules and obligations, she left everything she knew behind and headed out west. She arrived in West Texas with the expectation of getting a fresh start as a new woman with no one to answer to but herself. What she didn't expect was to discover secrets big enough to tilt her world and people she would be willing to kill for because of them.Langston always knew he would be the next True Alpha of his pack, but when his father died, Langston's premature promotion had him unsure about his path. With the weight of the pack on his shoulders and a thriving urban ranching community in West Texas to oversee, the last thing on Langston's mind is finding a mate. Of course, trouble always finds you when you're not looking for it and in blows a woman who shakes up his pack and knocks him off his feet. Her zeal amazes him and soon the pull between them is undeniable. Will succumbing to the desires of his wolf prove to be the right move or turn out to be fruitless?

– När jag väl är med dig känns det, jag vet inte hur jag ska förklara det …– Som om jag är den enda som förstår dig – riktigt förstår dig?– Någonting liknande, kanske … Som om jag har hittat tillbaka till mig själv igen, hittat den personen som jag egentligen är.Filmskaparen Janine Aronsson har fyllt fyrtiofem. Janine kan själv knappt tro det, trots att det gått en vecka sedan hon blåste ut tårtljusen tillsammans med nära och kära. Fyrtiofem år är hon nu – och faktumet skrämmer henne.Ett oväntat telefonsamtal från barndomsvännen och före detta arbetskollegan Jennifer Bergstrand får Janine attstrunta i helgens bokade planer med familjen och hon väljer i stället att bege sig på en bilutflykt tillsammans med Jennifer till deras gemensamma hemstad. Väl där besöker väninnorna gamla filminspelningsplatser och återupplever minnen från uppväxten.Men det som börjar som en vanlig bilutflykt till en sedan länge bortglömd stad utvecklas snabbt till en emotionell inreresa där teman som livet, döden och tiden tar plats. I staden som de inte har besökt på över två decennier kommer det förflutna i kapp och Janine och Jennifer tvingas hantera gamla ärr, folk från förr, samt varandra.
