Sometimes I forget that my family and friends read my posts, and I am always surprised when they ask about something I hadn’t told them about yet. It throws me off. When this happens I always get that deer in the headlights look, and search my brain for the conversation we must have had about that subject. It almost feels like I am missing huge chunks of time out of my life. It’s like I am playing tricks on myself.

Meet Paula Holliday, a transplanted media exec who trades her stilettos for garden clogs when she makes the move from the big city to the suburbs to start a gardening business. Paula can handle deer, slugs and the occasional human pest – but she’s not prepared for the mummified body she finds while restoring the gardens at Halcyon, a local landmark.
Casual snooping turns serious when a body is impaled on a garden tool and one of Paula’s friends is arrested for the crime.
Aided by the still-hot aging rocker who owns the neighborhood greasy spoon, a wise-cracking former colleague, and a sexy Mexican laborer with a few secrets of his own, Paula digs for the truth and unearths more dirty business the town has kept buried for years.
Called “quirky, original and captivating” by award-winning mystery writer Carolyn Hart, Pushing Up Daisies is the first in the Dirty Business Mystery series featuring amateur sleuth/gardener Paula Holliday.

Shtetl – the story of a life no more (as told from the hereafter) (The Jewish History Novel Series Book 3)
Othniel J. Seiden
Genre: Historical Fiction | World Literature
FREE for a limited time
If you were a Jew you needed no last name … we were all one big family … and we all had the same tsuris, excuse me, I mean troubles…
Shtetl is an historical Jewish novel. It is only about what life was like in my shtetl, a small Jewish village in Eastern Europe. At one time, there were many shtetls in Eastern Europe, but they and the lives led in them are no more.
And I am the last remembered patriarch of the family in this story.
I began my physical life on earth in the year 1820. The shtetl … the little village, in Poland, where I lived my entire life, came into existence, maybe three centuries earlier. In all that time, little changed for either of us, except maybe the misery got worse. We both, the shtetl, and I, ended our time on earth together.
So you might ask how it is, if I am no more that my story will get told?
Well, when you are here … here in what you call the “hereafter” or “the afterlife”… but God forbid, it shouldn’t happen to you ’till you’re a hundred and twenty … you’ll understand it all…
