But so did her older brother, Trevor. And he was taken.

About Progressive Digression: A Book of Poetry:
A collection of mostly free verse poems written throughout the author’s adolescence and young adulthood. This is the familiar story of striving for progression, while continuously digressing. It is an attempt to show the struggle that we all face in growing: we move on, but not always forward, and not always in a straight line. In these pages are stories of unrequited love and sadness, as well as hopefulness, found truly only in One Source.
About World of Shawn:
This is the story of a lonely kid who develops a computer game, using what little of quantum physics that he has read, that renders game levels from maps of any format; the result is just a little too realistic. When he tries to combine this “World of Shawn” with a favorite game of his childhood, “World of One,” he soon finds Worlds colliding, to the detriment of his friends. Shawn must step up and rectify things, rescue the princess and save the World. The interaction and constant dialogue between the characters in this story, as well as the humor and action intertwined, have drawn comparison to that in such works as “The Lord of the Rings,” “Harry Potter,” and “Narnia,” so if a reader has an interest in any of those, as well as an interest in video games, either in the past or the present, it would be a safe bet that they would enjoy getting to know Shawn and his World! — “Your Hero” (Book Excerpt) I watch you from afar, You don’t know who I am, But I care for you, And would die to defend you. You are my Princess, And I am here to save you. I am Always, Your Hero — “The One” (Bonus Material) When no one else is around, you are the one who listens. When all is darkness, you are the one who turns on the lights. When the evil in this world seems to have overcome the good and all that was once true is utterly gone, You are the one who keeps me going just one more day. You are the one that holds back the tide. You are the One. — These are songs that helped me in the development of “World of Shawn” and songs that help recall scenes and elements from Shawn’s World, in chronological order. These would also be awesome for a WoS movie soundtrack, if a movie was ever produced! More will be added as I recall them: 1. Live For The Night – Krewella 2. Surrounded – BT+Aqualung 3.

About The Secret Garden – On a Diet : Abridged:
The Secret Garden — On a Diet This is an abridged version of The Secret Garden and modern translation of the dialect. The Secret Garden by Francis Hodgson Burnett has been a popular book for almost a century, but age is catching up with it. Two issues are evident: yards of description and nearly impenetrable dialect. Readers today have seen settings such as castles and sprawling manor houses, so paragraphs of description are no longer necessary. Dialect has almost disappeared from popular writing. Readers find the sentence “Nowt o’ th’ soart!” baffling. I’ve put The Secret Garden on a diet and reduced it to 20 percent of its original size. Get on with the story!

About Ferryl Shayde:
How many people have a tattoo that teaches them magic?
While trying to outrun the local bully, Abel trips over a stone slab and something wakes up.
After it helps him escape, Abel returns the favor and breaks the binding seals and finds himself apprenticed to Ferryl Shayde.
Once Ferryl takes up residence as a tattoo on his arm, Abel can see the magical creatures that live alongside us every day. Not the ones of folk tales, but their scruffy, slimy, fanged cousins. Worse, he finds that the pact that should keep them under some sort of control has failed.
Magic is easy, controlling it can be lethal, and by letting Ferryl Shayde out Abel has aroused the unwanted interest of others.
If only it was just a board game, like the one he is creating with his friends. Unfortunately, it turns out the other way around and the players begin to discover real magic.
