Download or read book Dead Flowers on Wednesday written by Paul Trammell and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-08-23 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dead Flowers on Wednesday is the harrowing tale of a band on tour, facing trials and tribulations along the way, drinking too much beer, smoking too much weed, giving in to every temptation, and loving (almost) every minute of it. Travel on a cobbled-together tourbus with a band of marauding musicians as they try to break free from the tethers of society and chase their dreams of freedom, stardom, and unbridled musical expression. Experience the thrill of stage performance, the camaraderie of the band, acid trips, fights, success and failure as you step into the shoes of characters living their dreams and facing their nightmares. The band has everything to gain, and nothing to lose (or so they think) when they embark on a nomadic life in a schoolbus that has been rudely converted into a tourbus. Along the way, they reap the glory of performing to large crowds, the disappointment of dodgy venues, the ecstasy and misery of overindulgence, the loss of friends, and the love or the wrath of bizarre characters they meet along the way, and the consequences of overindulgence. The writing is captivating, surreal, and transcendental. You will feel exactly what it is like to improvise electric guitar leads on stage at a festival. You will roam in the forest after the show while tripping acid. You will skateboard in the dark while drunk. You will fight the jealous boyfriends of groupies. You will get stoned and shoot guns, vandalize, rob, get beat up, and wonder what it all means. "I make eye contact with a girl dancing in the front row. She's dressed in a short black skirt and tall black leather boots. I can see the sides of her breasts and I drink in her beauty and feed off her energy as she feeds off mine. Her movements influence my notes, and my fingers respond to her hips and the swinging of her hair. We merge into one being as her body and my guitar play different parts of the same song.""We drive away from the precipice where our innocence and grace once stood like fallen souls navigating the first plane of the inferno. The hills, once green and vibrant, now loom above us and shade out the sun like dark and cold prison walls.""The grass around our feet, which I couldn't see at all before, grows taller and sprouts flowers of all colors. And then, perhaps the strangest thing of all, it begins to rain, but it is not water that falls from the sky, rather little balls of light descend and feel like joy when they hit me. Each one leaves a little feeling of joy on my skin, joy and happiness concentrated in one little spot on my arm or shoulder or head. And the little bits of light keep falling and the colorful birds fly about soaking up the light and glowing like fireflies, and the joy covers my body and I am overwhelmed with happiness. I smile so big that my face hurts and I fall to my knees and into the tall glowing flowers and the light that envelops me becomes so bright that I lose what consciousness I still have. "some headlines from places we performed: "Music Murder and Mayhem""Music so Good You'll Forget Who You Are""Naked Hippies Scare Locals""Violence Escalates at Speak Easy Venue""Wayward Musicians Wreak Havoc on Tour""Reggae Band Gone Bad""Bullet Ridden Tour Bus found in Appalachia""Domestic Terrorism Blamed on Reggae Band""Festival Goers Describe Hallucinations Brought on by Music"It's a long way to the top, and rock bottom is always close at hand.Dead Flowers on Wednesday is a fictional tale based on the real experiences of the author, who was himself a touring musician. The author gives the reader the unique opportunity to experience the feelings, emotions, sights, and sounds of what it is like to perform in a band on stage and travel from gig to gig on a bus. Some of the events are real as told, some are embellished, and others are completely fictional. However, all are indicative of life on tour and representational of the decisions and challenges we all must face.

Book excerpt: “Kavanagh keeps the suspense high to the chilling conclusion.” —Publishers Weekly From a distance, they seem to be sleeping. Three bodies, sitting propped up against the ancient stones of Hadrian’s Wall. Until a closer look reveals the horror of their too-white faces. The victims were found by schoolgirl Isla Bell, out on an early morning run along the historic site. That day changed the small town of Briganton forever, and shaped Isla’s life. Twenty years later, she’s a professor of criminal psychology, wrestling with the question that still haunts her: why? Why did Heath McGowan kill those people—and two more besides—before he was finally caught by Isla’s police detective father? At last, Isla has a chance to get answers when Heath agrees to take part in her research. Isla’s husband, Ramsey—the only one of Heath’s victims to survive—cautions her against the meeting. But no matter how ready Isla feels to peer within a killer’s mind, there is no way to prepare for the fresh horror about to engulf Briganton. Another body is found, displayed just as before . . . and then another. Is this a copycat, or could the truth be darker still? “The red herring-filled conclusion should surprise even the most careful reader.” —Kirkus Reviews “Smart, fierce, and absorbing, this is a novel that begs to be read deep into the night.” —Foreword Reviews

After being advised to commune with glowworms and sit in contemplation for one year, Rodriguez finally packs her life and her cat into her Mini Cooper and moves to a seaside town in Mexico.

Her adventures and misadventures among the expats and locals help lead the way to new love, new family, and a new sense of herself. In the magic of Mexico, she finds the hairdresser within, and builds the life she never knew was possible—a life on her own terms.

Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In the propulsive debut novel from the host of the #1 true crime podcast Crime Junkie, a journalist uncovers her hometown’s dark secrets when she becomes obsessed with the unsolved murder of her childhood neighbor—and the disappearance of another girl twenty years later. ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: PopSugar You can’t ever know for sure what happens behind closed doors. Everyone from Wakarusa, Indiana, remembers the infamous case of January Jacobs, who was discovered in a ditch hours after her family awoke to find her gone. Margot Davies was six at the time, the same age as January—and they were next-door neighbors. In the twenty years since, Margot has grown up, moved away, and become a big-city journalist. But she’s always been haunted by the feeling that it could’ve been her. And the worst part is, January’s killer has never been brought to justice. When Margot returns home to help care for her uncle after he is diagnosed with early-onset dementia, she feels like she’s walked into a time capsule. Wakarusa is exactly how she remembers—genial, stifled, secretive. Then news breaks about five-year-old Natalie Clark from the next town over, who’s gone missing under circumstances eerily similar to January’s. With all the old feelings rushing back, Margot vows to find Natalie and to solve January’s murder once and for all. But the police, Natalie’s family, the townspeople—they all seem to be hiding something. And the deeper Margot digs into Natalie’s disappearance, the more resistance she encounters, and the colder January’s case feels. Could January’s killer still be out there? Is it the same person who took Natalie? And what will it cost to finally discover what truly happened that night twenty years ago? Twisty, chilling, and intense, All Good People Here is a searing tale that asks: What are your neighbors capable of when they think no one is watching?

Book Synopsis Turmoil and Triumph by : George P. Shultz
Download or read book Turmoil and Triumph written by George P. Shultz and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page 1123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Schultz recounts his years working for the Reagan administration, including foreign policy and the power struggle between the State Department and the National Security Council, in this candid reflection on his years as Secretary of State. Turmoil and Triumph isn’t just a memoir—though it is that, too—it’s a thrilling retrospective on the eight tumultuous years that Schultz worked as secretary of state under President Ronald Reagan. Under Schultz’s strong leadership, America braved a nuclear arms race with the Soviet Union, increasingly damaging waves of terrorism abroad, scandals such as the Iran-Contra crisis, and eventually the end of the decades-long Cold War. With the strong convictions and startling candor for which Schultz is known, this personal account takes readers into the heart of the Reagan administration, revealing the behind-the-scenes talks and churning tensions that informed a transitional decade that many Americans now look back on as one of the country’s most exalted.
