HERE'S A FUN WEBSITE TO FIND OUT WHAT TYPE OF WRITER YOU SHOULD BE--
You Should Be a Science Fiction Writer
Your ideas are very strange, and people often wonder what planet you're from.
And while you may have some problems being "normal," you'll have no problems writing sci-fi.
Whether it's epic films, important novels, or vivid comics...
Your own little universe could leave an important mark on the world!
In the highly competitive world of book retailing, Frugal Muse has pursued a unique formula. If you want a book that is in print but which isn't on hand at our stores, we can usually order the book specifically for you. Special-ordering is one of the services not available at Half Price Books. By special-ordering new books and by carrying new books other than remainders, FRUGAL MUSE is different from the Half Price chain. At the same time, by carrying a huge selection of used books, FRUGAL MUSE is different from Barnes & Noble. We hope you enjoy the Frugal Muse difference!
ABOUT OUR NAME
In Greek mythology, the Muses were goddesses who provided inspiration to humans. If your personal Muse is a frugal, bargain-loving Muse, She'll inspire you to visit our stores!
HERE'S A FUN WEBSITE THAT TELLS WHICH MUSE YOU MOST CLOSELY RESEMBLE--
Your Inner Muse is Thalia
You are most like this playful muse of comedy.
Life is all about laughter to you, and you're a natural comic.
You make people laugh until their sides split.
And you're always up for some play time!
We operate 3 large retail bookstores (each has 6,000 square feet of sales space and more than 80,000 books). In business since 1994. Author signings are always fun events.
The books we list on Amazon are a very tiny fraction of the 80,000+ books available at each of our stores. The number we take in each day and the number we sell each day are way too many to try to list each one that comes in and de-list each one that sells, but we like to provide via Amazon a sampling of what's available to those who drop in to browse at our stores:
Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror novel SACRIFICE is now in stores everywhere, including Amazon.com! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride! Here are a couple reviews it's gotten so far:
“SACRIFICE is a full frontal assault on your senses. It is a dark, brutal, bloody and terribly frightening book. Everson went deep into some dark abyss to bring this book to the light of day.... I highly recommend SACRIFICE.” —Famous Monsters of Filmland
“John Everson manages in SACRIFICE to dispense buckets of blood, provide edgy perversity, and walk the tenuous tightrope of horror and sex without falling: It’s rather an amazing feat.” –Hell Notes

I can’t take back what I’ve done in the past Nor can I retaliate on all that’s been done to me, At best I can learn from experiences I’ve had Shake the chains of regret and be free,
The future has its own set of tests and trials So why dwell upon yesterdays woes, My road only changes if I’m willing to change it The door of opportunity is never closed.
I must free up my psychological arms To make space for better things to come I should dispose of the junk from the past And seek the source where all natural treasures come from.
We are the wardens of the prison in our minds Condemned by guilt, regret and sorrow, But I stay at peace, when I learn to release- Yesterday, and appreciate the hope of tomorrow!

It is a great day to be alive! What Question can I ask to empower myself and others? How can I improve the experience of those I encounter today? What can I do to facilitate your Gift?
Yesterday Is History Tomorrow is a Mystery Today is a Gift... That's why we call it the Present
It would seem sometimes the winds of the fates have more to do with life than we had planned. As I float by, I hope you are well and life is being kind.
