Book Blast: A JOURNEY THROUGH FEELINGS by Paul Guerin

 


A Journey Through Feelings

by Paul Guerin

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 


GENRE
: Poetry - Inspirational

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

BLURB:

 

Poetry: writing that formulates a concentrated imaginative awareness of experience, in language chosen and arranged to create a specific emotional response through meaning, sound, and rhythm.

 

Poetry means different things to different people. For me, it is all about feelings. If it captures the emotions of the reader, a poem will resonate and fill the soul. It can mean everything to one person and not much at all to another. The mood of the reader and no-one else determines the outcome.

 

For example, love poems are wonderful when you are in love and their passion is amazing. If you are facing adversity, however, love poems likely will just annoy or even anger you.

 

In "Poetry from my Heart", I have attempted to divide the poems into categories which will fit your mood no matter what you are experiencing at the time you choose to explore them. There should be something for everyone, no matter whether you are in love, out of love, you hurt, you are lonely, angry, abandoned, or you are facing other challenges in your life.

 

Poetry has a healing power that nurtures the soul and quietens the mind, and so I hope that whatever your situation is in life, you will find something here that helps you safely on your journey.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

Excerpt One:

 

You awoke my world

 

I met you and you awoke my world

Suddenly the birds sang louder

And the music seemed more magical

Our souls touched and our hearts beat as one

 

We both know that this is not possible

We will pinch each other to see if it is real

We both know there are hurdles ahead

But just now we do not care

 

I promise you I will never control you

Promise me you will love me always

Let us promise each other forever friendship

Let’s become the best friends of our dreams

 

I promise you can be free with me

That I will always want you to fly on your own

I will always be here for you no matter what

I swear these promises to the God inside my soul

 

Time will pass and we will climb mountains

We are a team of simple, pure, amazing grace

The changes we have made in our lives are huge

Let’s move forward with the speed of mutual lightening

 

At times I feel afraid of the pace and the risks this change may bring

At times I simply want to be alone to figure the right path

At times I stagger, falling and getting back up

Always, I have been there for you without a word

 

When you need space, it is freely yours to have

I will never hold you when you need to be free

My soul will never smother your free spirit

I will always hold you when you need to be held

 GUEST POST

Topic: What was my writing journey like?

My writing journey spanned 70 years. Here is a brief summary of what happened!

“I was Irish, young and bold and there was nothing I couldn’t do – now that I am wiser and old, I know that wasn’t true. Fear manifesting in arrogance, turned into shame ……. eventually I could no longer play the game….”

As a very young boy living in a small Irish townland village community, poetry was the least of my concerns. Living in poverty meant surviving day by day and eating what was available – sometimes very little was and our vegetables of choice were nettles!

All was not bad, for there was Irish music everywhere and the lyrics were magic to my young ears. My uncle played an accordion in an Irish show band and there were ghost stories my Irish Nana told me that scared the b’jasus out of me. There was no lack of things to stimulate the imagination, poor as we were. Nana herself was a small in stature, sporting a black dress, black shawl and a wicked temper driving a razor-sharp tongue. She was a formidable influence indeed!

My Irish roots are where my poetry came from. It didn’t happen right away as my roots were pulled when I was grabbed up and taken to live in England at age 6.

In England I was physically safe, had enough to eat and lived in a home with an actual toilet and running water. But emotionally I was in permanent free-fall. My Irish roots were torn out and I had nightmares for years about my shipboard journey from Cork to Cardiff, Wales and then the long train ride from Cardiff to Paddington Station in London. Unceremoniously dragged from my quiet Irish village, I experienced the serious trauma which was the genesis of many of the poems I wrote in later years. We say that good often comes from bad and my gift from the trauma was the ability to express my deep and darkest feelings in poems and share them with others.

In my teenage years, I attended an English Public School as a live-in boarder. There I had the chance to study Elizabethan history and English literature. It was there that I discovered and read poets such as Wordsworth and Coleridge, Keats and Shelley and William Shakespeare to name a few. Part of my studies involved analysing the meaning of the works and the other part was observing the writing styles.  It was there that I fell in love with the rhyming couplet style of writing.

As mentioned in the introduction to my book, my journey has been difficult and along with the early childhood trauma, there emerged the twins of fear and insecurity. For years I masked these with arrogance and anger – and my “proverbial inner asshole” ruled the roost!

I started expressing my feelings in poetry that seemed relevant to the times and situations. This was necessary therapy for me and helped me deal with the failures, disappointments and emotional pain that plagued me for years.  A friend of mine refers to these painful episodes as “designer experiences” and that is exactly what they are – they redesigned my psyche and changed my life.

My book title says it all – “Poetry from My Heart – A Journey through Feelings”.  The poems are my feelings from real life experiences and because of that, they will resonate with and I believe bring comfort to, readers who face similar challenges. This book of poetry is my legacy to my family and friends and I hope also that it will provide hope, happiness and healing to those who need it.

Warmly,

Paul Guerin   

 

 

AUTHOR Bio and Links:

 


As a very young boy, I lived in a small Irish townland village called Castletownroche. The village was situated in the very beautiful and pastoral County Cork. I had an Irish uncle who played in a showband and who taught me to fish at age four. I wrote a poem about that. My mother was absent and I never knew my father. I wrote another poem about that. We lived in abject poverty. I survived by the grace and loving kindness of an old Irish grandmother sporting a black dress, black shawl and a wicked temper driving a razor-sharp tongue. I called her Nana.

 

Nana taught me to fear her retribution and used it to keep me safe and provide security that I could find nowhere else. Well into my teens, my inner world was cast in fear and I had no real sense of belonging or attachment to anyone or to anything. The inability to handle those feelings eventually led me to substance abuse. My journey along that road has generated much of the poetry of adversity, hope, and inspiration that you will find in this book. I truly hope that those poems in particular will salve the souls of those of you who are still trudging that happy road to destiny on your way back from hell.

 

Not surprisingly, I have had difficulty in maintaining healthy relationships throughout my life, and much of the love poetry is about those failures and many, many, sorry attempts to return to love. Those painful/happy experiences had a major influence on my writing.

Review: MURDER AT THE PET EXPO by Cindy Bell (Book 10)

 


Princess was going to be a star!

She was one of the chosen for a dog calendar shoot that was going to be held at the Pet Expo. Nikki was expecting fun and playtime. Instead, she got drama, tension…and murder.

Someone had committed a murder right in the middle of a busy expo. Who? How? And why?

The evidence and all the suspects get cluttered and confusing in this story. By the end, you almost don’t care who the killer was. This story was certainly not the best, but it was okay.

 

My rating: 3 stars

Review: MURDER AT ROVER MEADOWS by Cindy Bell (Book 9)

 


Nikki’s best friend and client has been arrested for murder!

Someone in Sonia’s family was obviously framing her, but who? There are too many names thrown into the scene. It gets a little complex with the land developers, policies, and various characters.

Nice start and a decent read, but not as good as the other books.

 

My rating: 3 stars

Review: MURDER AT HOUND HILL by Cindy Bell (Book 8)

 


A new pet-sitting gig with a rich client and a fresh murder on the doorstep. The cat might’ve been a witness to it, too! Who killed the gossip columnist that never had a nice thing to say about anybody?

Another fascinating mystery!

Blog Tour: LULU AND PEBBLES by Reena Pagnoni

 

Pony Tales on the Farm, Book 1


Children's Chapter Book

Date Published: 06-07-2022

Publisher: WAMAN BOOKS PUBLISHING


photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png


Lulu's 8th Birthday should be the best day of her life...but she soon realizes that things don't always go as planned. When Lulu struggles to form a bond with her new Pony, she finds herself questioning more than one friendship in her life!

 

 

Review: Happy 8th Birthday, Lulu! Her birthday wish was a unicorn. But would she get one this year? Well…close. It turned out that she got a pony instead. Yay!

“I had no way of knowing that the next few weeks would be far from what I had imagined. . . and that sometimes things don’t go as expected…”

Pebbles certainly didn’t look like the other ponies with the short, plump, and ragged appearance, but, to Lulu, she was perfect. Even though she didn’t have a great first impression with Pebbles, she was determined to make this friendship work.

The whole thing focuses on Lulu’s inner thoughts and feelings as she adjusts to having a new pony. Very innocent and caring. Lulu soon begins to wonder what kind of sad past Pebbles might’ve had that made her afraid of humans. “I would NOT give up on my pony.”

Story had an easy, engaging narrative, and was filled with lively, monochromatic illustrations. The art was reminiscent of Roald Dahl’s style (from Matilda.) The enthusiasm just leapt off the pages.

A lovely story about a girl and her pony!

 

Rating: 5 stars

Blog Tour: THE CHRONICLES OF ANTECEDE: LOST AND FOUND by C.M. Sage

 


The Chronicles of Antecede:  Lost and Found

by C.M. Sage

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 


GENRE
: Fantasy

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

BLURB:

 

Sometimes things are lost for a very long time...and then they are found.

 

Take Gracie for example, a woman who lost everything, her life, her family, even her name, but now she is a Cathalian warrior of Antecede blessed with powers, which aren't yet fully realized.  Her elder and nemesis, Donavan, finally granted the former professor an opportunity to train a new warrior.  Her joy turns to shock when she meets her great, great, great, great grandson, Henry, accompanied by his wisecracking best friend, Milo.  Henry recognizes his long dead ancestor right away, and it doesn't take the Cathalians long to realize that this meeting was no accident.

 

Gracie and the warriors of Antecede soon discover that they aren't the only ones laying a claim on their new charges.  Menacing enemies from the South and their hired mercenary assassin, Revilan, the Bowman, have also taken an interest.  Come along with Gracie, Donavan, and their fellow warriors on a perilous quest to protect all that is good and right from the evil that threatens it, and along the way discover what else was lost.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  

Excerpt One:

 

Gracie tapped his shoulder, “Milo, did you notice anything unusual before I arrived to meet you? Did you see anyone on the shore, even from a far distance?” Milo reached down to ruffle Rosie’s ears before he answered, which was fortunate because at that exact moment a vicious arrow barely missed grazing his ear before flying by into the tall grass.

 

Gracie heard a sound like a muffled curse far off in the distance. The language wasn’t one she recognized. She knocked Milo flat to the ground, so that he was no longer a target and signaled for her little ones to stay down. Several more arrows flew in quick succession from the same direction. Gracie managed to pull a long dagger from under her coat before she also went down. Blue fell onto her back next to Gracie, a knife in each hand. Gracie looked at Obi, who knew what to do. He crawled away to search for and retrieve an arrow.

 

In the interim Blue and Gracie rose to their knees, keeping their heads down, and signaling for Milo to stay down. He nodded, and muttered in a shaky voice, “You don’t have to tell me twice. I may never get up!”

Blog Tour: JUCHE Box Set BY Adria Carmichael

 


Juche 1-4 Box set

by Adria Carmichael

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 


GENRE
: YA Dystopian

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

BLURB:

 

 


Just when Areum - daughter of a privileged family in the totalitarian state of Choson (North Korea) - thought she was free from her personal prison, her world collapses around her as her family is taken away in the middle of the night to a hell-like camp in the mountains where people who have strayed from the righteous path are brutally re-educated through blood, sweat, tears, and starvation.

 

There she has to fight for survival together with the family she hates and is forced to re-evaluate every aspect of her life until then: her deep resentment toward her twin sister; her view of her father in the face of mounting evidence that he is a traitor with the blood of millions of fellow countrymen on his hands; and even her love and affection for the Great General - the eternal savior and protector of Choson, whom she had always considered her true father.

 


Note from the author:

Have you ever wondered what the world looks like when seen through an indoctrinated mind?

 

This is a topic that has intrigued me for as long as I can remember, so when I came up with the idea to write a book many years ago, I decided to create it from the viewpoint of a victim of indoctrination… which in the end became Areum (the protagonist of the story).

 

What I try to explore in this story is how deep the indoctrination of a 14-year old girl can run and how much “reality” it can be exposed to before breaking… if it will break at all. As a comparison, the defectors from North Korea who arrive in South Korea are isolated for three months in a de-programming facility called Hanawon before they are allowed to join society where they go through this process in a more controlled (and less brutal) way than Areum.

 


I hope you will enjoy this slightly different take on the dystopian genre!

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 




 

Excerpt Two:

 

My father’s words echo in my head.

 

“Hamhung”

 

“Hamhung”

 

I’m standing in a long wide street. There are tall houses on both sides of me.

 

Where am I?

 

I don’t recognize anything, but still, everything looks familiar.

 

Then I notice there is something on the ground around me. I try to focus, but my vision is blurry. There is something there. Some kind of objects.

 

Or…

 

Now the focus is getting clearer. They are bodies! They are everywhere. I jump in panic. I want to run away, but my feet are stuck to the ground.

 

I’m standing in a sea of sun-scorched, dried up corpses - as far as the eye can reach. Then I feel it. The stench of their decay stings my nose. I feel nauseous. I look down at the corpse closest to me. A man. He looks so strange. Like all his muscles and fat has been removed, and his skin tightly wrapped around his bare bones. All the corpses look the same.

 

All of a sudden, there is a movement in the corner of my eye. I turn my head.

 

Paralyzed with fear I watch one of the corpses rising until he stands before me a bit further down the street of death. He doesn’t move, just looks at me with his dead silvery eyes. My blood is freezing to ice inside my veins. I look closer, squinting against the distant sun. The features of the man look strangely familiar. Then I suddenly see it. I gasp, and a flash of ice rushes down my spine.

AUTHOR Bio and Links:

 


Adria Carmichael is a writer of dystopian fiction with a twist. When she is not devouring dystopian and post-apocalyptic content in any format - books, movies, TV-series and PlayStation games - she is crafting the epic and highly-addictive Juche saga, her 2020 debut novel series that takes place in the brutal, totalitarian nation of Choson. When the limit of doom and gloom is reached, a 10K run on a sunny day or binging a silly sitcom on a rainy day is her go-to way to unwind.

Blog Tour: LOVE IS FOR THE DOGS by Annee Jones

 


Love is for the Dogs

by Annee Jones

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 


GENRE
:   Clean contemporary romance

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

BLURB:

 

A coveted award…a missing Maltese…and a cheating ex… Can Trisha Campbell survive this year’s dog show competition in Last Chance Beach, much less walk away without a broken heart?

If there’s one thing vet tech Trisha Campbell knows, it’s dogs. Men, however, not so much. Especially ever since catching her ex-boyfriend, Miami P.D. Landon Prescott, kissing her arch-nemesis, Blythe Baker, at last year’s dog show after Blythe’s pup Princess took home the grand prize. Needless to say, Trisha's not looking forward to seeing either of them again at this year’s competition in Last Chance Beach, even if her beloved Maltese, Chloe, is a front-runner for the coveted trophy.

Soon after arriving on the island for the week-long event, Princess goes missing and everyone fingers Trisha as the dog-napper since her pooch is Princess’ main opponent. With not only the prize money but also her reputation at stake, Trisha’s willing to join forces with none other than her cheating ex. Can she and Landon figure out a way to work together to catch the culprit and find the missing Maltese before the whole competition goes straight to the dogs? And what happens when they find themselves alone together at last?

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  

Excerpt One:

 

No longer having an appetite herself, she grabbed the cup with her now-melted mint chocolate chip and leftover cone and threw it into a nearby pail.  Grabbing her canvas tote, she looped it over her shoulder. Turning, she was startled to see Landon’s disappointed expression. Did he really expect her to stay and talk to him like they were old friends? After what he’d done? No way. So what if she’d changed her phone number and blocked his email address? He was in the wrong, not her. And she didn’t owe him the time of day after he cheated on her.

           

Reluctantly, the twins picked up their ice cream bowls and plastic spoons and followed her as she began to grimly march past Landon to the front door. When she was close enough so that she could smell the spicy scent of his aftershave, their elbows accidentally brushed together. All the memories of how much in love they’d been – they’d even talked about getting engaged – came flooding over her like a tidal wave, and she tried not to cry as she exited the parlor and walked out onto the scorching sidewalk.

JANE AUSTEN LIED TO ME

by Jeanette Watts

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 


GENRE
:  Romantic Comedy

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

BLURB:

 

Dear Diary,

 

In three years of college, there are seven times my life seemed to suddenly turn into a Jane Austen novel; seven times my life, instead of becoming a romance, turned into a made-for-TV drama.

 

 What am I doing wrong?

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Exclusive Excerpt:

 

Nov 19

 

I got a job! I’m at the circulation desk of the law library. So a whole lot of sleep-deprived caffeine junkies come hand me books that they want to take home and fall asleep over in their dorms, instead of at a library table. I put in applications all over campus, and tried to focus on jobs in the sciences that might be good experience for a future pharmacist. Not much luck on that score. I’m happy enough. This will do. It’s a great job. I get to do my homework while getting paid at the same time. I’ll just get interrupted sometimes to check out books, and spend some time reshelving them, which makes for a nice posture break from time to time. It doesn’t get much better than this.

 

That’s how I found out that Darcy Fitzwilliam is in law school. I should have figured. He’s already perfected his poker face for the courtroom.

 

He came up to my desk and asked me a question, and I told him he really needed to speak to the reference librarian. “I’m only here to stamp the books after you pick them out. I don’t field questions. I think you have to be a lawyer before you’re qualified to be a reference librarian in a law library.”

 

He went over to the reference desk, and I went back to the stack of books I was processing. I was a little startled when I got up from the desk to put my stack of books on a cart, and he was standing there again.

 

“Have you been working here long?” he asked me.

 

“I started Tuesday, so, no.”

 

“Ah, that’s why I haven’t seen you here before.” We stood there for a moment, looking at each other. I had my arms loaded down with books, he stood in between me and the cart where I could put them down. “Well, I’m sure I’ll see you again.” He walked away.

 

His eyes are brown.
