![]() Seriously: A Novel $23.95 A promising first novel, written as series of character sketches, each chapter is titled with the name of one of the residents of the crossroads in which the narrator finds herself. Through this method the characters come to life in bits and pieces, the way we actually get to know people. The characters are never wholly good nor wholly bad, we see them in their humanness with their flaws and their strengths and the reader is reminded of how complex people are and to resist judging them or pigeon-holing them. I look forward to reading more by this writer. ![]() Seriously Good $1.99 Seriously Good is a celebration of food and cooking that satisfies the mind, body, and soul.Kindle blogs are fully downloaded onto your Kindle so you can read them even when you're not wirelessly connected. And unlike RSS readers which often only provide headlines, blogs on Kindle give you full text content and images, and are updated wirelessly throughout the day. ![]() Walkerswood Jonkanoo Seriously Hot Jamaican Pepper Sauce - 5 oz $4.50 At Christmas time, people all over Jamaica celebrate their diverse heritage with lively parades. They dance in the streets wearing colorful costumes and masks that represent characters (jonkanoo's) from the islands historic past. Capture the flavor and essence of Jamaica with Walker's Wood Jonkanoo Hot Pepper Sauce. A lively little number that's worth celebrating! ![]() Taking Things Seriously: 75 Objects with Unexpected Significance $17.50 Most readers will wish, as I did, that THEY had thought to compile and edit a book like this. Or at least that they had been called upon to contribute an essay to this collection of photos and stories about objects of particular and unexpected significance to the individuals. Intriguing stuff. Most of us have equally fascinating and quirky objects we've trucked around for years or even decades. I will share the book with friends who dabble in writing. We should have fun identifying our own special objects and using the concept of analyzing their importance as both a writing exercise and a way to share our idiosyncrasies. (Why DO I cling to that brass drain cover from the urinal at an abandoned mine?) |
