Children of Mire.	by Gerald Crenshaw Nov. 02, 2008	$1.50	81156 words	Sample 25%
Author bio: I was born in Charlottesville Va. and have been an avid reader since childhood. I am the middle child of three brothers. When my 5th grade class went to the public library for the first time, I was the only one with a library card already in possession and a mountain of books already read. Book reports were never a problem. To this day my wife's one legitimate complaint about me is if I am reading, or even worse writing, the house could be on fire and I wouldnâ€™t notice. Visitors to our home always ask the same question of "Have you ever disposed of a book?" and the answer to that is no! Electronics and communications has been my passion since high school, earning a BS in Telecommunications. After years working for various equipment manufactures the job and fate landed me in Dallas Texas area. After may other jobs (Ok so I wasnâ€™t an engineer, I was a migrant worker subject to the whims of current government projects.) I found a home at a little upstart telephone company called MCI. After twenty-two years there I got caught in the big lay off and deception. Most of my writing up to that point was technical papers for business and magazine articles, but I did get to work with a very good editor who put a bit of polish to my writing (Thank you Andy!). I currently work for the state of Texas as a radio technician taking care of state police communications. I did feel I was overripe for a novel awhile back and this was the result. I hope you enjoy it and yes I am working on a second novel.
Who, In Fact, You Really Are	by Cosmic Awareness Nov. 02, 2008	$49.95	411414 words	Sample 7%
Author bio: Cosmic Awareness is the Force that expressed Itself through Jesus, the Buddha, Krishna, Mohammed and other great avatars who served as channels for what is commonly referred to as "God." The messages do not come from spirits, ghosts or discarnate entities, but directly from the source--Universal Consciousness. Early in 1962, a voice expressing itself as Cosmic Awareness began speaking through Ralph Duby, a university lecturer and ex-army officer who had been through the Bataan Death March in Philippines during World War II. The voice spoke whenever the subject was in a state of self-induced trance. Since that time, much valuable information has come through to us on this earthly plane from a source so high it staggers the imagination. The resulting flow of spiritual knowledge and the means of its practical application are similar to the work of Edgar Cayce, one of the most famous and documented psychics of all time. When the question was asked of Cosmic Awareness: "What is Cosmic Awareness?" we were told that Cosmic Awareness is the total mind that is not any one mind, but is the Universal Mind. It does not represent any unit other than that of complete and total Universality. We were told that we are all part of Cosmic Awareness and that we all have that God-cell within that can be contacted. No need to run off to psychics or priests or spiritual mediators. Cosmic Awareness said that you can channel Cosmic Awareness, too. Everyone can. From Cosmic Awareness, we have learned from the tens of thousands of readings It has given, that It has many names. Some call it God, Jehovah, the First Cause, the Great I AM, All That Is, etc., but Awareness has said It is not a single entity, not the anthropomorphic concept that It was often defined to be by most religions. It has defined Itself as Beauty, Purity, Concentration--and above all, Truth or "What Is." It has called Itself anti-matter, pure space, pure nothingness that is everything and the everything that is essentially nothing. It has described Itself as being that which is next to that which does not and cannot speak because it is the highest form of energy in the universe. It corresponds to the highest impersonalized concepts of God--the Clear Light. It has said that as it speaks through a modern-day interpreter now, in the past It has spoken through the great avatars: the Buddha, Mohammed, Moses, Jesus, Krishna and others who served as Its channels. Cosmic Awareness has made Itself quite clear that It is not an entity, a disembodied spirit or anything of that nature. Awareness is pure energy--pure everything--or the natural God. Cosmic Awareness is that Universal Consciousness that permeates all living things in the universe, that sees all and experiences and discerns "what is" without judging or condemning. It is the Cosmic River of Life, the Stream of Consciousness, the Eternal Essence of Being, the Divine Spirit. All consciousness springs from the same river of life--the Universal Life Force. Cosmic Awareness is not a personality, but a force that is personal in nature. The name Cosmic Awareness is unlikely to become confused with any "personality" who channels or expresses this force, avoiding any form of worship toward that person. It can be experienced by anyone who goes deep enough within oneself to touch that level of Cosmic Awareness. Cosmic Awareness is the sea of life that not only fills our cells with living energy, but fills the air we breathe and the space between galaxies and the molecules. It is the living universe. Like water filling a sponge, Cosmic Awareness fills the spaces between molecules atoms and subatomic particles, and binds them all together into one gigantic Universal Being. Like cells in a microcosmic body, we blend together as souls in a macrocosmic body whose consciousness is Cosmic Awareness. The communications have reduced what a true religion should be to the simple fundamentals of service to one another. "God" is revealed as a universal set of cosmic laws, not a personal deity subject to capriciousness, wrath or vengeance. Cosmic Awareness has taught us that there is no actual "personalized" God, apart from the many that human beings have created; there is no "personalized" Devil apart from the many that men have promulgated. The communications are deeply spiritual, but essentially non-religious and non-secular. The communications never cease to stress the supreme importance of spiritual life and the necessity for compassion in our dealings with all people. In the messages from Cosmic Awareness, there is to be found the same supreme dedication to helping to ease suffering and tragedy among humanity and a reverence for all life that is the hallmark of the great saints and the teachings of the great religious leaders.
John Smith, World Jumper Book One: Portal to Adventure	by E. Patrick Dorris Nov. 04, 2008	Free!	63937 words	Read a sample
Author bio: In my forty something years I have generated a very broad set of experiences and interests, but through it all, I have always read. It seems that at times it is harder to find books that enthrall me, although admittedly I am behind on my reading, so I decided to start writing the kind of stories I'd want to read. I have always had stories in my head, they intrude at the strangest times. At some point, I discovered that when I took the time to write them down, more stories kept pouring out. There are so many ideas I have, it seems like there won't be enough time to get to them all. I'm starting with one story, in one particular style. But other stories, in different styles are coming. Stay tuned. My goal in writing is above all to entertain. Thank you in advance for giving me that opportunity.
