About the author of the Rocky Bluff P. D. series, F. M. Meredith:

F. M. MeredithAs F.M. Meredith I write the Rocky Bluff P.D. crime series. Many people know me was Marilyn Meredith, the author of the Deputy Tempe Crabtree mystery series.

I became interested in writing about law enforcement when my son-in-law was a police officer and over coffee told me all about his adventures. He also took me on a ride-along and I was hooked. I belong to the Public Safety Writers Association and have many friends in law enforcement.

All of our children are grown and have blessed us with many grand and great-grandchildren. We used to live at the beach in a beach community much like Rocky Bluff. We now live in the foothills of the Southern Sierra with a resemblance to Bear Creek where Deputy Tempe Crabtree and her husband live.

Ezekiel Azazel’s Book 1 is Free Today!

Ezekiel Azazel is offering Book 1 of his Voodoo Souls series free for a limited time.

VooDoo Souls by Ezekiel Azazel II

Ezekiel Azazel IIThe story of VooDoo Souls was crafted from very real and horrible nightmares and is set during a very dark period of time in our nation’s history; the post Jim Crow days, in 1968 Macon Georgia. On the outskirts of this tolerant city an aging group of motorcycle riders called the VooDoo Souls finds trouble when a cursed amulet buried by a slave is unearthed.

Feuds become rekindled between old foes when an up and coming club called the Confederate Buzzards encroach upon the secrets buried within the dilapidated plantation and home to the VooDoo Souls.

With inspiration from King and Poe, Ezekiel Azazel respectfully presents his debut novel, VooDoo Souls.

About the author, Ezekiel Azazel II:

Ezekiel Azazel IIEzekiel Azazel is a war veteran who has travelled to the supposed land of origin to the Necronomicon, and has seen the shifting sands, and beautiful skies of Mesopotamia. It was also there where he spent many starry nights on radio watch reading Lovecraft, Koontz, and Poe which his work is influenced by. He is now recluse, and lives with his fiancé, and four legged family. His favorite pastimes besides writing is assisting fellow veterans, cooking, and spending time with his pets.

The author has spent countless hours in research, and enjoys writing the stories as much as he does in re-reading, and discussing them with friends. It’s with great pleasure and respect, that VooDoo Souls is presented for all to enjoy.

Mark Musser’s eBook is free today!

mark musserA survey by The Barna Group found that “parents typically have no plan for the spiritual development of their children; do not consider it a priority, have little or no training in how to nurture a child’s faith, have no related standards or goals that they are seeking to satisfy, and experience no accountability for their efforts.” The results of this are tragic. Recent reports have discovered that between 75% and 85% of children who grow up in evangelical homes leave the church by their sophomore year of college.

Every day our children are bombarded by the culture and its message, yet they are not daily receiving the truth and message of Christ. Leaving the church to do that a few scant hours a week does little to combat the culture’s sway. Yet, long before God established the nation of Israel to be His chosen people, and long before He established the church to spread His glory, He established the family to be the primary means of making disciples. Is your family fulfilling that mandate?

In this must-read book for every Christian family, you will discover how the ancient Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4-9) is a blessing for all modern families trying to navigate in our present culture.

About the author, Mark Musser:

mark musserMark Musser has a passion to communicate God’s design for life and the family. He and his wife, Christie, have fostered 27 children and have one teen-aged son of their own. (And amazingly, he still has hair left!)

Mark has a Masters in Christian Education as well as earning more than 100 Continuing Education Credits in the area of children and youth development, family dynamics, conflict-resolution within the family, discipleship in the home, effective discipline, parenting teenagers, dealing with different personalities, etc. He is further trained and certified through the National Center for Fathering (See: www.fathers.com) to lead various seminars and workshops.

Mark and his family live in the Lehigh Valley of northeast, Pennsylvania. He loves Philadelphia sports teams–Eagles, Phillies, Flyers, and 76ers; so he knows much about pain and heartache. He enjoys playing sports, writing books, hanging with his family, and referring to himself in the third person.
