DANCING WITH THE DEVIL Author: Taylor Siluwé Genre: Short Story Fiction / Erotica / LGBT Themes ISBN 10: 1-934241-07-5 ISBN 13: 978-1-934241-07-3 205 Pages Publication Date: February 2009 Price: $11.99
The phrase ‘Dancing with the Devil’ evokes images of fiery rituals where witches and demons cavort under the cold moonlight. But that’s science fiction. That’s the sort of craziness that led to innocent people being burned at the stake. In real life, however, the expression does mean cavorting with dark forces—just ones inside our own heads. Centered around a single protagonist, from Breeding Season where we spy a high school crush gone wild, through Beneath Paradise where sex and salvation’s all-out war leaves a young friendship on the battlefield, to the cautionary tales Pretty Young Gangsters, Dancing With The Devil and When Romeo Wakes, each of which peep into the darkest part of obsession’s needy heart. This collection of stories deal with those sometimes sexy, sometimes darkly disturbing moments when our inner Devils come out and dance.
MORE THAN MORTAR AND STONE - THE MEANDERING MENTAL PATH OF A BROKENHEARTED WOMAN Author: Fisiwe Genre: Memoirs and Poems ISBN 10: 1-934241-06-7 ISBN 13: 978-1-934241-06-6 94 Pages Publication Date: February 2009 Price: $6.99
There is an exquisite bliss in loving someone and knowing they love you back. Two people create a world of relationship starting with that first knowing glance that says “I choose you.” It is lushly furnished with the invisible and unspoken foundations upon which the seen rests. Like studs and beams tucked away behind walls, an underlying impulse deeper than sensation holds up every kiss. But much of that life goes unattended and withers between the cracks on the surface of the relationship where most couples tend to set up house. Ironically, that neglected life is where love truly lives while her mere reflection dwells up top.
And when the harrowing winds of change huff and puff, and blow that house in, where does the other world go? What happens to love’s creations? What happens to a woman’s mind and heart?

As a sufferer and survivor of death and bereavement, Chuma uses memoirs and poems to bring forth a beautiful and poignant memoir about the demise cancer imposed on his mother and his favorite aunt, and the anguish he suffered when AIDS took the life of his closest friend—each fatality in less than a year. Despite enduring melancholy, loss, and hopelessness, with the help of the ancestors and his imperiled loved ones, Chuma realizes that death is merely an entryway to everlasting existence in a different form. At times heartbreaking and painful, and at other times triumphant, this book is a journey through grave sadness, loving support, startling bravery, and a celebration of the afterlife, all discovered through the power of love.

"lovewords" is my remembrance of myself. It is the way in which I live according to my belief that simultaenously I am part of and all of The Universe, living this human life to experience my own magnificence. I am a part of the diviity of all creation...we all are. By speaking words from a place called love, I affirm all that I am and all that I know. I affirm all that others are and all that they know. By speaking words from a place called love we can defeat fear. By speaking from a place called love we can truly be ourselves--the physical embodiment of the divine creative force that is life. Love is not a fantasy, a luxury, or a gift. Love is a birthright, a driving force, a pure thing. Love is my choice.
