The Death Game: Book Review by Chris Longmuir
Found the link below because it was shared in a Writers, Readers, Researchers & Reviewers Group on Facebook. I prefer historical romance novels myself but the reviewer seemed to be really enthusiastic about this historical mystery. It has peaked my interest in exploring other historical mysteries.

Book Suggestions: Political Thrillers by F. C. Etier
On November 7, 2012, with the official publication of a political thriller entitled The Tourist Killer, Frank C. "Chip" Etier added - Published Author - to an already impressive list of accomplished career objectives. The novel is a fast-paced thriller with political overtones, conspiracy and intrigue. The main character, Claudia Barry is "The Shooter", a female professional assassin, who is about to retire. But before she can complete her last assignment, close out a 30-year career and fade into the sunset, she just has to answer a simple question: Can a leopard change her spots?
Finding the answer to the question may prove to be somewhat complicated.
Blogcritics.org states that "The Tourist Killer is a strong first novel by a promising author." Other reviewers have described this book as: "exhilarating", "intense", "surprisingly good", "electrifying", "a refreshing angle". But you know you've got a really satisfied audience of readers, when they start hinting about what a great movie it would be. Mr. Etier shared a snippet of his novel as his weekly contribution to the Weekend Writing Warriors project.
The Presidents Club
A Weekly Serial Novel by Chip Etier
Mr. Etier ended 2012 on a positive note with the release of his first book and brought in the new year of 2013 with his second novel, The Presidents Club, which is being presented as a weekly serial novel by Venture Galleries, a publishing house that promotes the works of independent authors. The novel will soon be available on Amazon as an e-book and a trade paperback. Soon!
Future Projects?
An Interview of Mr. Etier About His Next Career Move
The Phoenix is the writer team of Lee and Gary Jordan. The Jordans also interview authors and publish book reviews and interviews at their Phoenix Book Review Site. On January 10, 2013, they shared their conversation with Chip Etier. He discussed a little about his background - his birthplace, Louisiana; his various career paths (pharmacist, artist/photographer, writer); and mentioned that his writing influences range from Dr. Seuss to John Grisham. (That's quite a range.) He then concluded the interview by responding to questions about what led him to write the two novels, and his plans to write more.
You can tell by the tone of the interview that Mr. Etier is a very humble guy and perfectly content to live with Bob (aka Miss Bob), his "drop dead, gorgeous" wife in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. So the interview gives no indication that he's even thinking along these lines. But the fact that Mr. Etier has successfully published two outstanding thrillers should come as no surprise to anyone who has ever read anything he has written. Why not place him side by side with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle? If people are already raving about converting his first book, The Tourist Killer, into a blockbuster hit; then might as well consider adapting The Presidents Club into a TV miniseries. Maybe plans are in the works and he's just keeping it hush hush. Then again maybe he hasn't been approached on the subject. Not yet! :)

A Week of Dickens: Resources on His Life, Works, Walks, and London : Faith, Fiction, Friends (Reblog)
Well my weekend is starting off really well. I should hashtag everything #FabFriday. First, I found a beautiful flower pic on Tumblr. Then I plucked this gem out of the posts stream for the Authentic Blogger Group on Facebook. This post is sure to delight all lovers and loyal fans of Charles Dickens. Did you know that if you have an Amazon Kindle, you can buy the entire collection of Dickens' works for $1.99. Good literature that's priceless and inexpensive. Can it get any better? 😄

Be My Valentine? Did You Say "My Religion is Love"?
Not your usual Valentine, I know.
But I think it's a perfect valentine.
So who was it that said “My religion is love”? Wasn’t it one of the sons of Bob Marley?
Ooops! Looked it up. My bad. It was the title and song lyrics by Ziggy Marley that said "Love Is My Religion
". Close enough! 
It was the late Bob Marley himself who said: "Overcome the devils with a thing called love."I believe in giving credit where credit is due, but they were both just rewording the wisdom of Jesus.
No matter who you want to give the credit to, you would all be hard-pressed to say that it isn't a golden rule to live by!
SIDE NOTE:
~ Born: February 6, 1945, Nine Mile, Jamaica ~ Died: May 11, 1981, Miami, FL. Had he lived to see this day, the legendary reggae artist, Bob Marley would have been 70+ years old. He and his music live on through his children. They make sure of that!
Happy belated birthday, Mr. Marley!

The Chocolate Lady's Book Reviews: Five (or seven) GOOD things to come out of 2016 (Reblog)
Happy to reblog and share this Featured Post from a fellow blogger, Davida Chazan, who is a "Go To" person if you're searching for good reads. Here is her suggested reading for 2016:
The Chocolate Lady's Book Reviews: Five (or seven) GOOD things to come out of 2016
Her reviews and other writings are so good I invited her to contribute to my group board on Pinterest: Freelance Writer. We crossed paths because we both contribute short posts to a site called "Daily Two Cents". This site has a revenue-share plan for those who have a Google Ad Sense account and allows you to earn 100% of your commissions, if your post includes an affiliate referral link. It's reasonable. Don't you think? This is the link to her DTC profile: drchazan aka Chocolate Lady.
(This is my DTC author profile, if you're interested: cmoneyspinner, if you're interested.)
Book lovers will probably appreciate her faves lists for previous years too!
I love her blog's tagline. It reads:
What a hook! So of course I had to find something chocolate at her blog. Found it!

It's all because of Ms. Brenner's writing style. Ms. Brenner brings even the very mundane into the world of extreme interest. She makes much out of the intrigue so that although it's really economics, it's still interesting. She works her way around marketing so that it's suddenly as moving as a love scene.

Prince Guitar To Be Auctioned In Beverly Hills - losangeles.cbslocal.com
Ever since it was publicized that Prince died without leaving a will, my curiosity is peaked and want to know how his assets will be divided up. My first post on this topic was:
This is the second news headline:
A bright yellow, uniquely shaped guitar used by Prince to perform such tunes as 'Cream' and 'Gett Off' is going up for auction.
Bet you're imagining yourself playing that guitar, aren't you? Or at least holding it.

Houdini and Doyle: "The Maggie's Redress" Review - IGN
The first episode of Houdini and Doyle aired May 2, 2016, on Fox at 8pm CST.
My review was published at 100Springs.com, an online writing community; and it was compared to the review published and IGN Entertainment. IGN gave the series a rating of 6.3. I thought it should have been 3.6.

myLot.com - A Milestone and a Second Impression
Last August (2015), published a blog
post presenting my first impression of myLot.com, a social network / discussion
forum that I joined. So it's been a little over 8 months
and as of today, my profile boasts 125 discussions initiated by me. I think it could be called a significant milestone and you can consider this post my second impression. :)
Along with that, the site owners have made some major
strides in improving a system which in my opinion was already
terrific!
- They added three social media share buttons: Pinterest, Twitter and Facebook.
- They made it much easier to add images to your post for pinning and also include a reference link, if you started a discussion but you want to refer your reader to additional information.
- They made it easier to hashtag your Tweets. When you generate a discussion, you can tag it appropriately. It is recommended that you choose up to 5 tags. If you tag your post and then Tweet it for sharing, the tags automatically convert to hashtags. That's a neat feature!
This community is really fun and they
really do pay the 15th of every month ($10 minimum cash-out).
Below is a sampling of my posts. Hope one or more
catches your eye. You must sign up if you want to leave comments.
If you're not a member but you like the content, feel free to share
with others.
Thanks so much!
