"I'm working on it but I don't have a timeline for you yet. My goal is to have it out within twelve months, but it might be sooner than that."
Jack of Hearts by Ricardo Bare
Jack of Hearts
by Ricardo Bare (Goodreads Author)
A wistful and intriguing story about a young man named Jack. I thoroughly enjoyed the tale and I look forward to see what the future has in store for him, whether he meets his fate, or finds his destiny.

“Stupid never dies.”
Michael G. Manning

“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”
Robert A. Heinlein

“Without power, knowledge is useless. without knowledge, faith is tyranny. Without understanding, humanity is blind, and without all four, it is doomed.”
L.E. Modesitt Jr., The Parafaith War

“Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.”
