Bob Jordan has been telling stories for years. It all began in 1971 when he took a creative writing class at Pasadena City College. His professor's first assignment was for everyone to sit out in front of the institute for one hour and write down everything they saw. Bob thought it was stupid at the time but went ahead and did it, and boy is he glad he did. That one hour changed his life forever! It forced him to see beyond what he was looking at. For instance, instead of a bus traveling down Colorado Boulevard, he now saw a silver air conditioned transportation vehicle belching out black smoke, carrying folks of all ages and lifestyles each with their own unique story, to their appointed destinations.

And so it began. ...more

If the poet doesn’t wish to revise, let the poet abandon poetry and take up stamp-collecting or real estate.” —Donald Hall “Poetry is a rich, full-bodied whistle, cracked ice crunching in pails, the night that numbs the leaf, the duel of two nightingales, the sweet pea that has run wild, Creation’s tears in shoulder blades.” —Boris Pasternak “Wanted: a needle swift enough to sew this poem into a blanket.” —Charles Simic “Language is a cracked kettle on which we beat out tunes for bears to dance to, while all the time we long to move the stars to pity.” —Gustave Flaubert “Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It’s that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that’s what the poet does.” —Allen Ginsberg. ~~~~~ Amy King, Moderator Amy King is the recipient of the 2015 Winner of the WNBA Award (Women’s National Book Association).

A Must Read for Suspense and/or Romance fans! July 10, 2012
By Laurean Brooks "Laurie"
Format:Kindle Edition
When Jake Thompson goes on a treasure hunt and unearths an old key, he finds himself caught in a web of mystery surrounding a forty-year-old crime. The problem is the key points to his old friend, Gus, as the prime suspect. It is rumored that the bank heist in the early 1940s involved three men. Two were caught and died in prison, the money never recovered. One suspect is still on the loose. Could it be Gus?

(I found myself rooting for the gruff, but likeable old Gus. I kept hoping he wouldn't be proven guilty.)

Jake's life becomes intertwined with Gus, Sarah, and her lovely daughter, Janet when he discovers an old locker with one door locked. Could the key he found, open it? If so, what will he find inside?

Jake's mind spins. If the key solves the mystery, it could mean prison for Gus, and torn lives for Sarah and Janet. Jake and Janet's budding romance could be crushed before it begins. On the other hand, the key could set free the suspicions surrounding Gus. What should he do?

Will Jake take the chance and open a possible Pandora's box? Or will he toss the key out his truck window and allow life to go on as it is? Read "Treasure Heart" for gripping suspense and find out. You will not be disappointed. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and can't wait for another from this talented author.
