630905 Thanks for the friendship, Benjamin!

Here’s wishing you a fantastic day filled with fabulous fates, fanciful festivities, and frolicking phantom footstools.

I was wondering if you'd do me the honor of reading about my debut novel, Vacation, which recently made the Bram Stoker Award Preliminary Ballot. Your support would mean a lot to me. If you'd like to do me this honor, feel free to vist my site here:

Happytimes,

Peter: Oh my god, Brian, there's a message in my Alphabits. It says, 'Oooooo.'

445870 I have a name that is considered Islamic but its actually Arabic like Mary's a Jewish name- not Christian. Guess what Amina means? Faithful and loyal friend. I live in a society (Nigeria) that has diverse religions and I can say one thing about Islam: too many people condemn what they do not understand, its like any other religion- it has its own good... and bad.

276352 I wandered all over many of the Moslem countries in the 1950s and 1960s and it was all beautiful. I had no problems going anywhere I wanted. The traveler is always treated well. It's written in the Koran to do this. Now I look at what has happened and it pains me, Benjamin.
