Supers have existed for about twenty five years and H.E.R.O. – The
Homeland Extraordinary Response Organization – allows for a loosely
operated environment within which these heroic citizens can operate for
the betterment of their communities without becoming vigilantes.
The
common types of Supers manifest as Psychics, Blasters, Bricks or
Mutants, although some crossover can occur in unusual individuals.
Psychics generally gain mental powers, such as telepathy, telekinesis, or emotional powers.
Blasters have the ability to generate or control an element or waveform, such as light, electricity, or heat.
Bricks are the strongmen of the world, having massive strength and armored bodies that can sustain immense damage.
Mutants appear less human in appearance due to the addition of blades,
tentacles, fins, wings, tails, and other, even weirder, modifications to
their bodies. They fall between a brick and the others in physical
strength.
H.E.R.O. – Metamorphosis follows the story of three
new Supers - Stephanie, Lance, and Rael. When a meteor shower unleashes
radiation above Metrocity, these three friends are transformed into a
psychic, a super-strong brick, and a mutant. In the midst of trying to
become H.E.R.O. Agents while simultaneously working to cope with all of
the challenges and problems their new powers are creating in their day
to day lives, a mutant villain embarks on a mission to capture and
kidnap as many new supers as she can in a bid to build a subversive army
that could alter the structure of society forever.
The H.E.R.O.
universe is a new world of heroes and villains. As a novel-based story
forum, it allows for deeper character development than that of a comic
book or graphic novel based story.

FREE -- Elvis Live: vol 2 My Treasured Memories (My Treasured Memories of Elvis) byJudy Palmer Bendewald [Kindle Edition]
Meeting Elvis: vol. 2 My Treasured Memories is based upon the title, My
Treasured Memories of Elvis. This volume covers the time when Elvis
performed live again, from late 1968 through 1971. We first published
the hardcover title, ISBN #978-0-9632274-1-6 in 2009. Because of the
number and size of photographs, we are creating a multiple part series
of ebooks. This is Judy Palmer’s book. It is a book written by an Elvis
fan for Elvis fans.So many fans want to know “What was he like?” Judy
answers this question by sharing her experiences with you. From her
stories I am impressed by this thought; small gestures matter. He said
“Thank you” for a photograph or a scrapbook. When he could, he shared a
joke or small talk with his fans. He was patient and kind. He somehow
made them all feel significant. Elvis lives on today, not only because
of the big moments in his career; but also that endearing quality of his
character. The heart of Judy’s book is her concert photos. Many fans
took countless number of photos of Elvis performing. After 1970 Judy
taught herself to photograph in natural light so she wouldn’t get caught
by the showroom security. She was now free from the limitations of
flash photography. She always sat close to the stage. Her new skill and
proximity to Elvis gave her a point of view most amateur photographers
did not have. She was able to capture his mood on stage without
disturbing him. Her photos were highly prized from the beginning, other
fans immediately wanted copies for themselves. Judy quickly moved from
trading copies to selling prints. As she attended more shows, she mailed
written descriptions of what she saw and price lists for reprints. She
gained a reputation as one of the finest amateur photographers of Elvis.
She created a “brand name,” an identity for herself among Elvis
fans.Judy chose the photographs and the stories for this book. I edited
only for clarity, not for content. It is also important that she chose
what not to include. Such is her desire to protect Elvis that she will
not publish an image, or a story that she considers unflattering. Both
Judy and I hope you enjoy this tribute to Elvis by people who loved
Elvis.

Had to be a miracle, because in all my born days, I didn’t never think it could turn out like this. Didn’t never think you’d be sitting right here on this very porch with me, hearing me talk about all us folks you don’t know nothing much about yet.. . . Back then, I didn’t really know that all the folks who came ahead of us are like the brown roots of a big old vine growing close to the porch, and even though those roots are way down deep in the ground where we can’t see them, they’re still there.And we grow from them, our whole lives, and then, if we’re lucky, others grow from us. Well, I expect that the ones who came before us—black and white—had things they had to keep still about, too, just like me and Miss Cora. Things we had to do, whether we liked it or not. And then never speak of them again.
Augusta Trobaugh is the acclaimed author of fine novels including Praise Jerusalem, Sophie and the Rising Sun, and coming soon, Music From Beyond the Moon.

But when someone starts killing her controversial clients, Gwyn becomes LAPD's primary suspect. After all, there's the unsolved mystery of her stepfather's bizarre death. Maybe Gwyn has a hidden desire for justice that's far from therapeutic.

FREE -- *AMAZON UK* -- A Dog Named Slugger by Leigh Brill [Amazon UK Kindle Edition]
The true life story of a dog who changed everything for one woman. For the first time in my life, I didn't need to pretend, I didn't need to be tough: I only needed to be honest. "I have cerebral palsy. I walk funny and my balance is bad. I fall a lot. My hands shake, too. That means I'm not so good at carrying things. And if I drop stuff, sometimes it's hard to just bend down and get it." I waited anxiously for the interviewer's response. She smiled. "It sounds like a service dog could be great for you." So began Leigh Brill's journey toward independence and confidence, all thanks to a trained companion dog named Slugger. The struggling college student and the Labrador with a "a coat like sunshine" and a tail that never stopped wagging became an instant team. Together, they transformed a challenge into a triumph. Together, they inspired and educated everyone they met. Now, Leigh honors her friend with the story of their life, together.
