Three touching, romantic stories celebrate the joys and surprises of motherhood, including "A Special Request," in which Sarah Jeffries meets sexy Nat Anderson but thinks that he is too much of a wanderer to be a father to her son. Original.
This exhaustive bibliographical reference will be the first stop for anyone looking for Calamity Jane in print, film, or photograph—and wanting to know how reliable those sources may be. Richard W. Etulain, renowned western-U.S. historian and the author of a recent biography of this charismatic figure, enumerates and assesses the most valuable sources on Calamity Jane’s life and legend in newspapers, magazines, journals, books, and movies, as well as historical and government archives. Etulain begins with a brief biography of Martha Canary, aka Calamity Jane (1856–1903), then analyzes the origins and growth of her legends. The sources, Etulain shows, reveal three versions of Calamity Jane. In the most popular one, she was a Wild Woman of the Old West who helped push a roaring frontier through its final stages. This is the Calamity Jane who fought Indians, marched with the military, and took on the bad guys. Early in her life she also hoped to embody the pioneer woman, seeking marriage and a stable family and home. A third, later version made of Calamity an angel of mercy who reached out to the poor and nursed smallpox victims no one else would help. The hyperbolic journalism of the Old West, as well as dime novels and the stretchers Calamity herself told in her interviews and autobiography, shaped her legends through much of the twentieth century. Many of the sensational early accounts of Calamity’s life, Etulain notes, were based on rumor and hearsay. In illuminating the role of the Deadwood Dick dime novel series and other pulp fiction in shaping what we know—or think we know—of the American West, Etulain underscores one of his fascinating themes: the power of popular culture. The product of twenty years’ labor sifting fact from falsehood or distortion, this bibliography and reader’s guide includes brief discussions of nearly every item’s contents, along with a terse, entertaining evaluation of its reliability.
The mesmerizing bestseller that combines the storytelling gifts of Donna Tartt and the suspense of Alfred Hitchcock—A New York Times Ten Best Book of the Year Special Topics in Calamity Physics is a darkly hilarious coming-of-age tale and a richly plotted suspense story, told with dazzling intelligence and wit. At the center of the novel is clever, deadpan Blue van Meer, who has a head full of literary, philosophical, scientific, and cinematic knowledge. But she could use some friends. Upon entering the elite St. Gallway School, she finds some—a clique of eccentrics known as the Bluebloods. One drowning and one hanging later, Blue finds herself puzzling out a byzantine murder mystery. Nabokov meets Donna Tartt (then invites the rest of the Western Canon to the party) in this novel—with visual aids drawn by the author—that has won over readers of all ages.
Pharafaneelya takes you into a place of several symbolic mirrors in several chapters—some mirrors are shattered, cold, and pitch-black. These mirrors and doors only accept fresh dead victims. The young victim in Pharafaneelya is an unlucky teenager girl. She’s a girl whose life has been bent and broken by false mirrors of guidance and lost love. With her virtue taken and forgotten and soul destroyed, she becomes a resident of the asylum of Pharafaneelya, to be consumed and integrated into it due to her heinous crimes committed towards her own family. She’s doomed to be turn into Watchmen to forever serve the asylum. She’s caught forever in a looping fragmented dream world of dreams, dreams which are forever monitored by prying eyes. Just when you think you know what’s coming next, you get thrown a sharp curve, so prepare yourself for a rollercoaster of a ride. Look for Weirdens Black Book, The first serious to this book, Pharafaneelya. Coming soon…… Writing books enables me to tell fiction stories in shattered mirrors—mirrors that may have passed through some unlucky soul once and live to tell about it. There’s a positive message in all the stories, and I hope the readers can find it through all the insanity and emotion of the book. Ultimately, having readers that like your creativity and your twisted style of the writing, is enough one could ask for. One can only hope to keep the eager readers neurons firing and their attention glued to the whole story, captured by the shockers in each special chapter—capturing and keeping—the reader a part of the story. I truly want to create books that readers, can, read a long with each other and have fun doing it.

Now, from the coauthor of A Woman's Guide to Spiritual Warfare and The Spiritual Warrior's Prayer Guide, comes this step-by-step guide to praying faithfully and diligently for precious sons and daughters. The first step is to surrender growing children to the Lord, who longs to partner with parents to raise godly women and men.

Stepparents and adoptive parents will find prayer guidance for their special circumstances, and mothers and fathers of severely ill children will discover how to pray through the most difficult situations a parent can face. When moms and dads covenant with God to be a household of faith, they will see Him act in their children's lives beyond what they could ever dream!
