In the 19th century, quack remedies were hawked at street-corner medicine shows to gullible buyers. Today they are sold via electronic media, often by celebrities promoting questionable products and advice. The market for nostrums thrives in an atmosphere of hype and pseudoscience, as 21st century consumers swallow both preposterous claims and cure-all elixirs, shelved alongside genuinely useful items. Who knows what actually works? What's the difference between science-based medicine and everything else? This book examines the misinformation and fear-mongering behind modern-day snake oil.

A fascinating portrait of betrayal - part gothic tale, part historical fiction - set against the backdrop of tragedy, slavery and war. In the second volume of The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing, Octavian and Doctor Trefusis escape to Virginia where Octavian joins up with Lord Dunmore's troops, following the famous proclamation promising to liberate any slave that will fight for the British in the Revolutionary war. While there, Octavian reunites with Bono, fights in vicious battles, and falls desperately in love.

Seamus Sullivan never asked to become a werewolf, but in this second book of the series he's adjusted well to undead life in a world where werewolves, plumed pirates, a Russian rogue, performing clowns, gourmet spaghetti sauce, and exploding toilets all have something in common-- love everlasting. Full of innocence and terror, surprises and amusements, WEREWOLF LOVE was written for every adventurous romantic who's ever wished that no death do us part.

I dedicate this story to my grand children, great grand children and on and on. Many I will never see, but hope through my storytelling they will see what a character their Grannie was. All the stories I write are from my real life experiences in one way or another. I enjoy sharing my past with you, and will continue writing stories for you to enjoy.
