Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Death Of The Playground talks about the tragic loss of 'Free-Play' in America. Our Public Playgrounds were the places where it all happened, where developing boys could learn together to, : First sit and watch and learn from those older : Truly become an important part of a group and fit in : Make up their own games and improvise : That to have friends you must first be a friend : Handle disappointment and that life isn't always fair : Realize that all great things take time : To become part of something bigger than just themselves THIS ONE WAS MOST IMPORTANT ! On the Playground, they did all of this without DIRECT Parent or Adult supervision. They made up their own rules of play, picked their own games, decided for themselves what was fair, and learned to live with the consequences. All of this doesn't mean Parents weren't involved; they were. They just weren't over-involved! Kids raised with their parents doing everything for them, then 'grow up' and want their government to do the same thing. I think we all know where that road leads. America's Corporations desperately need the developing titans, like the ones that fought and won two World Wars, created the powerful multi-national corporations, and wrote the great books of the 20th century. The chain connecting boyhood to manhood is now broken. Let me take you back to find the missing link. Revisit with me the Playground of my childhood, and share with me the pure joy and magic of my 8 years of 'Free-Play.' It's not too late to recapture that magic for our children, but we have to act and we have to act soon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on an Urban Legend. Rocket City, Alabama 1963. Arik Ensminger, a second-generation German, grew up in the southern town eating Zwischenmahlzeit, Kaffee, and Kuchen while playing cowboys and Indians in the woods of Monte Sano. An avid spelunker, Arik dreams of becoming a photographer but instead follows his family's expectations and prepares for a medical career. He is a dutiful son until... He defies his father to join in a search for a missing child. Arik partners with Willa, a childhood friend, and scientific Wunderkind, to explore the caverns under the mysterious mountain. Caught in a disorienting slip where the passage of time becomes fluid and spontaneous, they lose their way. But an unlikely guide, the Little Ghost Girl, leads them to Ensminger family secrets that were never meant to be discovered, then onto Drost Park, where Arik and Willa find the body of the murdered child. Arik has one shot to end his family's ruthless legacy but, if he's not careful, he will become their final test subject, and Willa will die. Dead Children's Playground is based on Huntsville, Alabama's eerie urban legend of child abductions in the early sixties, where children's bodies were allegedly found in the Park. When time is spent, Eternity begins... Some believe paranormal evidence that the spirits of the children remain.

Shots were fired, the assailant escaped and the dying Officer Skelly identified his murderer before taking his last breath.

The backwash of bloody Chicago had made its way into the rural neighborhoods of Southwestern Michigan and Northern Indiana.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his final work, a visionary game designer reveals how a surprising range of play-based experiences can unlock our imagination and help us capture the power of fun and delight. Bernard De Koven (1941–2018) was a pioneering designer of games and theorist of fun. He studied games long before the field of game studies existed. For De Koven, games could not be reduced to artifacts and rules; they were about a sense of transcendent fun. This book, his last, is about the imagination: the imagination as a playground, a possibility space, and a gateway to wonder. The Infinite Playground extends a play-centered invitation to experience the power and delight unlocked by imagination. It offers a curriculum for playful learning. De Koven guides the readers through a series of observations and techniques, interspersed with games. He begins with the fundamentals of play, and proceeds through the private imagination, the shared imagination, and imagining the world—observing, “the things we imagine can become the world.” Along the way, he reminisces about playing ping-pong with basketball great Bill Russell; begins the instructions for a game called Reception Line with “Mill around”; and introduces blathering games—Blather, Group Blather, Singing Blather, and The Blather Chorale—that allow the player's consciousness to meander freely. Delivered during the last months of his life, The Infinite Playground has been painstakingly cowritten with Holly Gramazio, who worked together with coeditors Celia Pearce and Eric Zimmerman to complete the project as Bernie De Koven's illness made it impossible for him to continue writing. Other prominent game scholars and designers influenced by De Koven, including Katie Salen Tekinbaş, Jesper Juul, Frank Lantz, and members of Bernie's own family, contribute short interstitial essays.

Book excerpt: When I was a child I tried a whole host of things and I always had the full support of my mother, Carmel Armstrong, and she told me that I could do anything that I put my mind to and I believed her and not only did I believe her, but I have also tried to pass this same message on to others as often as I could and especially to children because there's no greater gift that a human being can give to another than the gift of encouragement. And because of the wonderful and magnificent gift of encouragement, I am currently living my dream of being a published author and I have wanted this title ever since I watched my mother sit in front of her typewriter while filling the pages with words and in case you haven't guessed by now my mother was also a writer. The Playground is a gritty Gangster Novel that takes you on a journey through the lives of Sophia and David Bloom; mother and son who are forced to move to a Housing Project that's located on the Eastside of South Central Los Angeles after a family tragedy robs them of their financial well being. And their move takes place just before the rise of Crack Cocaine and before the decline of Heroin and it puts them in direct contact with dirty Cops, F.B.I. Agents, C.I.A. Operatives, Gangsters, Drug Dealers, White Supremacists, Thieving dope fiends of the worst kind, Revolutionaries or Domestic Terrorists if you prefer, and other shady representatives of the United States Government. But that's just the beginning because you see there's an unbelievable twist to the story that you won't believe. And I invite you to learn who Damu is and who Warlock is.

Will she and her team be able to solve the crime and locate the woman in time? It's their usual Thursday girls’ night in, and best friends Skye, Elena, and London are hanging out at Skye’s house in New Mexico: eating junk food, drinking wine, and playing with Skye’s children, Carter and Abigail...until the intruders arrive. Hearing horrific screams from Elena and Skye, London hides the children, tiptoes out to see what has happened, and then disappears. After Carter raises the alarm, Detective Alyssa Wyatt is called in to investigate a crime that appears to have no motive, no evidence, and worse still—no sign of London. As Alyssa and her team dig deeper, the truth is always just out of their reach, but what is clear is that they need to find London...and fast. As they uncover a link between the murders and a sinister local cult, can Alyssa find the young woman who has vanished without a trace before London joins the list of victims?
