Book Description
Ella Fitzgerald sang the blues and she sang them good. Ella and her fellas were on the way up! It seemed like nothing could stop her, until the biggest club in town refused to let her play… and all because of her colour. But when all hope seemed lost, little did Ella imagine that a Hollywood star would step in to help. This is the incredible true story of how a remarkable friendship between Ella Fitzgerald and Marilyn Monroe was born – and how they worked together to overcome prejudice and adversity. An inspiring story, strikingly illustrated, about the unlikely friendship between two celebrated female icons of America’s golden age.

Book Description
The Choreo-novel, “Big Auntie’s Pearls” is my attempt to expand upon the form of dramatic expression known as “Choreopoem” which combines poetry, dance music and song with traditional African-American storytelling. My story’s implied plot uses theme elements with specific characters to hopefully create an emotional response from readers also its listeners. Nontraditional spelling and vernacular are written in the Concert format with each chapter called an Opus with three different movements as found in a Sonata or acts of an Opera or Ballet. The four Opuses are infused with Intermezzo and in Three-quarters time giving those of us with short attention spans maybe a twelve-hour read or an hour for one movement. This Google interactive version contains links to music; fashion; food and culture with also fast cars of the times to enhance the readers experience and maybe even do a little shopping. My story is Historical "Inspirational Fiction” using pseudonyms of persons and Venerable Institutions in a respectful fictitious manner to help Annamitta (Anna-mē-ta) tell her story of her Big Auntie’s whispered “High Pearls of Burden.” I invite you on this journey to my native Southwest Georgia in the “Morning Star Suite” and a debut recital in the Southern hamlet of Boston before spanning through time with stops in Washington DC, Miami until Annamitta’s “New Day” at Savannah’s College by the Sea. * Inspirational external links included for entertainment, educational and historical reference.

Book Description
This collection contains five complete holiday themed cozy mysteries from USA Today Best-Selling author, Shéa MacLeod: Lady Rample and the Ghost of Christmas Past When Aunt Butty gets an idea in her head, there is simply no stopping her. At least, Lady Rample has never found a way. And what Aunt Butty wants is a proper, old-fashioned English country Christmas. So it's no surprise when Lady Rample finds herself celebrating the holidays deep in the Cotswolds. And naturally, Aunt Butty requires everything to be perfect, from the Yule log to the wassail. Unfortunately, the two women get more than they bargain for when a visitor from Lady Rample's past follows her from London, intent on wreaking havoc. Lady Rample and the Yultide Caper A peculiar Christmas party invitation leads our intrepid Lady Rample to Winter Haven and the Yule Manor Inn run by a secretive proprietress who may or may not be a witch, at least according to the locals. What's meant to be a festive event turns into a mystery with a missing host, disappearing Father Christmases, and a blackmailer who may or may not be dead. Fortunately, Lady Rample has several allies close at hand to help not only with the singing of carols and drinking of celebratory cocktails, but also to unravel the clues to this unusual mystery. A Christmas Caper (Sugar Martin Vintage Cozy Mysteries) With Christmas fast approaching and her bank accounts woefully low, Sugar Martin is spending her first holiday in Meres Reach, England instead of back home in Oregon. When the festivities are interrupted by an urgent call from her employer, she heads straight to London with Tippy in tow only to discover that her great-great-aunt Euphegenia has left her a final bequest—and a mysterious mission. Christmas is a time for magic and miracles and Sugar will need both if she's to succeed in her quest. The Poison in the Pudding (Viola Roberts Cozy Mysteries) With a book deadline and Christmas fast approaching, the last thing Viola Roberts has time for is a party. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what she gets roped into by the Mayor of Astoria. Party planning it is. Complete with Christmas puddings. Everything is humming along just fine when suddenly the guests begin to drop like flies! With both her reputation and her favorite Christmas cookies threatened, Viola has no time to waste. She’s got to find the poisoner before somebody ends up dead. Witchmas Spirits (Season of the Witch Paranormal Women's Fiction Cozy Mysteries) A bookstore of my very own and a Victorian house on the beach in the magical town of Miracle Bay means I get to finally relax and enjoy life—right? Wrong. After a Yule-tide tarot reading goes awry, my best friend Emerald is suddenly overwhelmed by a series of unfortunate events, each one more dangerous than the last. If Emerald and I don’t find the answer before Christmas and Yule arrive, the enchantment tangled around her is going to be the least of our problems. Join Juniper “JJ” Jones on her a magical escapade and fall in love with Miracle Bay. These are stand alone holiday stories which can be read in any order. You do not have to have read the rest of the series to enjoy these fun reads!

Book Description
August Wilson (1945-2005) wrote one play for every decade of the twentieth century that explored black life in America for the descendants of slaves. All of his characters seek wholeness, identity, and reconstituted selves after the terror of 250 years chattel slavery and its terrifying legacy. Their history, culture, wisdom, joys, triumphs, pain, sufferings, victories, weaknesses, and strengths are all embodied in one character, Aunt Ester. She is as old as the number of years blacks have been on these shores. All of the characters in the ten-play cycle are her children. Their search is through circumstance and adventure, certainly. This author demonstrates how Wilson uses language--poetry, the blues--to bring each play's characters to a point of wholeness, redemption, and freedom, not from history, but ennobled and strengthened by it. Wilson employs fundamental theological doctrines to exhort Aunt Ester's children to remember by whom and how they were freed and made whole.
