Paper Movies
Author: Max Morteman
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1462842194
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Paper Movies is a book containing two novellas and two long short stories. The title is derived from the fact that the tales contained herein are graphic and of a visual nature. This will hopefully put the reader into a state of mind that makes him/her smell buttered popcorn and want to pull a sweaty cardboard cup of a favorite beverage from the circular drink holder on the arm of a theater chair that isn’t there. The Fishermen is the longest of these four Paper Movies and well worth the price of admission. In this story, eleven-year old Zack Bonding goes on a fishing trip with his father. What happens to them will take you places you may wish you had never gone. Max Morteman, in The Fishermen, will make you wonder if you have as firm a grip on reality as you previously thought. Upon A Star is based upon a premise that resides within us all. What if you could really have absolutely anything your greedy little heart desires? What if you could have every wish you make come true in an instant? (And, we’re talking twenty-four hours a day, folks.) And, you’re only sixteen years old? Come on! Adolescence is hard enough without that. The repercussions can be devastating. Tick Woman shows us that the most innocent actions and altruistic intentions can have outcomes beyond imagining. (Max Morteman is not a nice guy, I fear.) All Marjorie Hormel wants to do is pick enough blueberries to make a birthday cake for her twins’ tenth birthday, and two pies and a cake for a church social cum birthday party for the area’s oldest resident. (Good God, Max Morteman, how could you do this?) Finally, if you are brave enough to continue this trip to the Paper Movies, the book closes with Walking Small. Walking Small is the story of a small town principal of a rural school in the north-central region of Pennsylvania in 1967. The summer of that year, 1967, is now commonly referred to by historians as “The Summer Of Love”. Suffice it to say that the principal of Ogosh Elementary School, Rollo Jervis, is not a very loving guy. He is a fanatical believer in the biblical adage, “Spare the rod and spoil the child.” So, pop some corn (or can tabs), take the phone off the hook, and sit back and open the book. (Added bonus—you don’t need to worry about the batteries in the remote.) Max Morteman truly hopes you’ll enjoy your trip to the Paper Movies. (You just better hope he isn’t there sitting beside you.)

Don't Leave the House Without a Blessing

Languages : en
Pages : 111
Book Description
Did you know by the time you were four or five years old, that you are a blessed child of God, that because you belong to Him you have been endowed with rights nobody can ever take away? Did you learn during your early childhood years that not only does God value you unconditionally, but that He also loves every other human being just as much? In this book, Iris Pearce, one of the cofounders of the School of Spirituality of the Dallas-Fort-Worth Episcopal Diocese, counselor, and spiritual director for many years, now opens her tender heart to us by sharing stories about her childhood. These are the experiences of Iris' life, long before she studied the lives of spiritual teachers and directors, and before she developed any of her teaching materials that have so enriched those who have been blessed to know her and learn from her. She shares these experiences with her typical wit and humor, describing what her Mama and Papa did, what they said to her, even how their faces looked at times as they talked to her, and how they each uniquely demonstrated God's truth, goodness and love. Mama was a staunch Catholic and Papa was a Methodist. Instead of expecting their differences to cause problems, Iris' parents approached life armed with God's love, which truly does overcome a multitude of imperfections. This book will make your heart dance! Brenda Waggoner Author of The Velveteen Woman
