    A. Michaelson says

    Hi, Bruce. I’m the author of The Sandal Maker, a new novel about the public ministry of Jesus from a unique point of view. A story that will take you on a fascinating journey in first century Galilee. I’m including here the publisher's notes from Amazon.com. Let me know what you think. The honor would be mine.


    Book Description
    Caleb, an elderly Jew, leaves the safety of his home in Cana on a mission to find a man he believes is in Jerusalem. Miriam, Caleb’s only remaining child, accompanies him disguised as a boy. In the desolation of the war struck Galilean countryside, father and daughter risk their lives to journey south on the Jordan River trail. As they walk, Caleb intrigues Miriam with a captivating story of his youth that will change her future destiny. A story of a time forty years prior when he became a sandal maker in order to observe a man some called the Miracle Worker. Caleb secretly kept notes of the events he saw and heard as he followed the crowds. With his objective, skeptical point of view, he reveals the fascinating ministry of the one he called the “Master.” Heart pounding perils and the threat of death endanger the two travelers, but nothing could foretell the fate awaiting them in Jerusalem!

    From the Publisher
    A. Michaelson's new novel, The Sandal Maker, takes the reader on a fascinating journey back to the year 70 A.D. in worn torn Palestine. The author creatively weaves two stories together, one in the present, the other in the past. Heartwarming, enlightening and tragic, The Sandal Maker paints a portrait of one man's life and his involvement in how the gospel came to be.

    if I could
    by donatella Camatta

    If I could stop the world

    the soul

    and

    the heart is

    the immense;

    fears,

    darkness would not part

    ....

    joy surrounds this still image

    embraces strong and your lips

    paste it to my face.

    I feel the emotion

    Your friend is my!

    Mr. H.I.V. on sale now on amazon.com says

    Author I.B Freeman gives us the raw deal on a title that I think most people are scared to read about, much less discuss. I commend Author I.B on tackling such a topic that should be in the forefront of everyone's mind. I believe everyone whether white, black, green, yellow, brown or purple should read this book. While this is work of fiction, there really have been cases of this where a person knew they were HIV positive and was intentionally trying to give to everyone they come in contact with.

    Darren the main character has it going on. He is in his 30's, a ladies man, 6 foot 6, has his own crib, a great job, nice SUV - he is every woman's dream man. When Darren finds out he is H.I.V. positive he becomes EVERYONE'S worst nightmare. He becomes a man with a plan to infect any woman whom he can, no matter age, race, or marital status. This book is very well written and the story flows. All the characters are very believable. Even the story line is believable. This book reminds me of the scared straight series that were used to keep kids from going to jail when I was kid. If this book doesn't scare you in some way I would be shocked. I believe the author did a lot of research for this book. The only draw back I saw was he didn't list any references on where to get info or where people can go for help if need be. I HIGHLY recommend this book to all ages, races and gender.
