Enter the psychological madness, as two brothers must first become monsters before transitioning to vampires. Best Selling Dark Fiction author, J.T. Patten kicks off a new horror series dedicated to New Orleans legends and folklore with a terrifying novella about the monsters within us all. The sun sets over New Orleans, and two brothers, John and Wayne Carter, find themselves standing in a French Quarter alleyway, their clothes stained with blood, and their minds foggy. They have no memory of how they got there or what they have done. All they can recall is a new friend, Jacques St. Germain offered them a deal - work for him, and he will give them a home, purpose, and power. As the brothers sink deeper into compelled crimes, they are plagued by nightmares and memories they can't explain. Through a romantic interest of John, the Carters seek the help of her aunt, a voodoo queen, who recognizes their plight and a danger to her own family. With guidance, they unlock memories of their past and learn about the dark rituals that they were forced to participate in. The brothers race against time to break Jacques' hold before they are turned and forced to serve him for eternity. But the old vampire is not so easily defeated, and the brothers find themselves in a final showdown with Jacques. Enter the legends and the hidden world of the Big Easy where paths intertwine with serial killers, witchcraft, and a bloodline of the dead that existed well before Prohibition in the Crescent City. Laissez les bons temps rouler.

When will you have kids? Sounds familiar? I bet it does!The decision to not have children didn't come lightly. I started recognizing the signs at a very young age. When I was growing up, I had nephews and nieces around. I babysat some of them since I was about seven years old. I could barely keep up with them - the tantrums, the relentless crying, the mess, you name it.Kids drama aside - I saw how hard my siblings (and my parents) worked, and I couldn't help but wonder, can I do this when I grow up?Then adulthood kicked in. Societal expectations are running wild, and the world is spinning around. As questions about my childless life continue to mount, the universe continues to show me how much I am better off without children.I ask myself, is having children worth it? Absolutely - for some people, but not me.I, for one, have chosen to celebrate the joys of not having children. It is perfectly normal (and okay) for people to prioritize their careers, pursue their passions, and travel the world (or do anything they want), all without the added responsibility of raising children.And for those of you who are wondering, no - I don't need to be a mother to live a happy and fulfilling life. Don't get me wrong. I love children but from a distance.Join me as I explore what it's like to be childless and how I find fulfillment in life, sharing my personal experiences and research-backed information.

This book is the story of Mike, a person born into a time of unquestioned white privilege in south, in Western North Carolina's Appalachian Mountains, and yet a time of innocence, hope and optimism for the future... a time of transition from the practices of centuries past, with chamber pots, outhouses, and bartering through telephone party lines, televisions with rabbit ears, and on into the realm of the cell phone and internet. It tells the story of the Whitt, Burnette, and Lowe families as they struggled to make a living, at times some of them subsisting on biscuits and molasses three meals a day. It follows Mike as he struggled through an admittedly underwhelming scholastic career marked by a period of experimentation and confusion. To break the deadlock, Mike joined the Cold War Navy in a hitch that spanned Jimmie Carter's Iran Hostage Crisis and Ronald Reagan's Beirut Peacekeeping Operation, a hitch that also exposed him to the technologies around which his professional career would later revolve, morphing into an improbable engineering career in which he became a Program and Profit Center Manager for the fifth largest electrical engineering firm in the U.S., an author of a best-selling engineering book and a multitude of technical manuals, engineering standards, and magazine articles. In short, this is the story of a life that spanned a remarkable time in human history, a time in which change became the new normal, in which the improbable (or impossible) became reality. In the end, Mike provides an inspiring perspective into how important it is to be optimistic, to never quit, and to take nothing for granted.
