Book Description
Let’s say you’re teleported to London, Prior to the blitzkriegs, where an unpublished author has just released her entire career into a single work. Would you have granted Virginia Woolf a consideration? What if James Joyce had launched “Ulysses” without prior credits? I cannot equate my work to theirs. Nor, would they approve of such a preposterous notion. But, if I’m totally bonkers, and don’t possess the talent that I proclaim, what’s been misplaced anyways, other than a few coins into the ol’ slot machine? “Let me please introduce myself, I’m a man of wealth and taste (not exactly true, on either count)...”.. So, who the hell is Michael Thomas, and what the #*%$ is The Last Generation? Well, my path to arrive to this destination has been more of an obstacle course than a traditional foot race. Basically, The Last Generation was composed to understand myself better. An exceedingly simplistic description to an extremely complex work, but, hey, hunger necessitates that I present a refection upon your plate. So, with that expectation for those idealistic childhood years to proceed forth in the same Manor, Seth’s path was altered by a bullet (of mental health) so forceful, that Mother was pressed to deliver Seth to a facility (Epidaurus) that will eventually extract the innocence of who he was, and can no longer be... “It’s not that he’s complaining, he only wants to understand.” While at Epidaurus, Seth will become entangled to those residents (of multifarious peculiarities) with far more diverse bullets impeding their transitions into maturity than his own. Yet, they’ll assist Seth in that metamorphosis to whom he shall ultimately become, and what he must do: compose those reflections from that perspective of a suspended snowflake... “The quest brought to light?” To all those bibliomaniacs who prefer to snuggle beside a freshened love after each sunset.. hardbacks, paperbacks, e-formats, oh my.. without a thoughtful regard to the preceding publication, kindly withdraw this “legit lit” from your little black book. The Last Generation deserves a commitment, a promise ring on one’s finger, as this is an unconventional work, as completely unique as I am. For, should you peruse the current publications for a novel of equitable quality, you shall only falter. Absolutely, page-turning cannot be tolerated on planes. Nor, waiting rooms. Rather, settle your attention to a tranquil nook.. Read a little.. Digest.. Read a little.. Digest... It is recommended to engage your polyamorous biblio-lifeways to the author’s website, before vowing such fidelity. https://thelastgeneration.info/ If you’re not presently gripped, I presume those moments to captivate your contemplation shall only further fade. So, my appreciation for your current heedfulness, and any possible considerations towards my work... “It’s a show... Freak show... You’ll see.” Michael Thomas

Book Description
Most of us go through life experiencing only the material world, using our five physical senses - and not to their full potential, at that. But on rare occasions, we will catch a glimpse of the hidden, mysterious aspect of our existence, a flash of insight or inspiration received through the sixth sense. What we call "the sixth sense" is a natural, intuitive state of higher consciousness and spiritual awareness, a special power of inner knowing and psychic ability. Everyone has it, although it lies dormant in most people. But if nurtured and developed - a process easier than one might think - the sixth sense can be awakened, honed, and used to achieve greater joy and understanding in every aspect of your life, from your relationships to your financial affairs. In Developing Your Sixth Sense, world-renowned author and lecturer Stuart Wilde will show you practical ways to tap into this profound ability to improve the quality of your life's journey. You will learn: Seven levels of supersensory communication. How to win people over and discover the real meanings behind their words. How to control your etheric body. An action plan for creating your own luck. How to be a powerhouse of creativity. Energy patterns for loving relationships. The ESP of easy money. A system for recognizing "types" of people and avoiding the demands they can place on you. How to open and energize your chakras for healing. Why it's important not to interfere. How to protect yourself from negative energy. Techniques for communicating with other realms of existence. And much more... an infinite adventure.

Book Description
The year is 2018 and the city is the City of Angels. They are four hoodlums: one past his prime, his prime being about forty years ago, and the other three youngsters with a hell of an attitude. But all have two things in common: they have each been to jail (well, three of them, at least) & a fundamental need to upend the dead-end system that is keeping them back. They set a plan in motion to rob a jewelry store, a plan they find elaborate, and in their minds, cannot go wrong. But then again, only one of them has any real experience, and all of them served time in the can.

Book Description
We Were the Zonks was born out of my love of song, and my desire to promote the music of my youth. The story, which became the vehicle to accomplish this, came to me in Sydney, Nebraska at a Dairy Queen. There, inside the newly remodeled restaurant, was a picture of a long ago defunct band who called themselves... The Zonks. The boys who comprised the band were sitting on a Volkswagen Beetle with their instruments in front of a Dairy Queen from either the early 70's or late 60's, judging from the incidental evidence. The caption in the photograph indicated that they had been hired to travel around the country and give impromptu concerts, obviously to draw crowds and sell ice cream cones. The picture was just a decorative memento, but I was mesmerized, and stared at it for an inordinate amount of time. Later, while traveling down the interstate, I began to wonder about the guys who made up the band. I wondered if they missed those bygone days. I wondered where they were and what they were doing now. And then, I imagined what might happen if they had a reunion, and a little magic came along... This mythical reunion is where the story starts. It is there that the characters in my book discover that they still have a burning desire to create and share music. The fictionalized Zonks still want the dream 40 years after they broke up, and I don't think they are very different from any boy who ever picked up a guitar and tried to play three chords and carry a tune. There are millions and millions of wannabe rock stars driving trucks, delivering mail, assembling widgets, and doing any manner of mundane job that you might care to imagine. What would I give to be able to play guitar like Jimmy Page? Name your body part. And, I know, I am not unusual. I move people for a living, and I know it's unusual for a man to not have a college guitar buried deep in his closet- literally, and figuratively. What really happened to the boys on the Volkswagen? If this book becomes popular maybe we will all find out. I know I am curious. It would be fun to see if my storyline, or character development, in any way mirrors the actual story of their lives. What if this book motivates them to have a real reunion? What if they really did record some songs 40 years ago? I for one would love to hear an old Zonk 45. Anyone out there gotta turntable? Anyone out there still know what a 45 is? A show of hands please? You there Yeah you Way in the back Remember when vinyl ruled? Remember when digital data was only in science fiction novels? You, are going to like this book. The author resides in Elberfeld, Indiana, owns and operates a truck, and travels the length and breadth of these united States, moving people hither and yon as a contractor with the best van line in the country- Wheaton Van Lines. He is married and has ten kids; Jimmy, Matthew, Aaron, Emily, Daniel, Niklaus, Madeline, Christopher, Wyatt, and Lucianne... Counting...Yep, that was ten Eight children are still at home with his wife of 27 years, Rosanna. She tends to them along with three horses, two snakes, and a cat named Mac that walks through walls.
