- JP Bender (9,663)  
JP Bender
Well, the initial SearchWrap's Q & A contest is now history; we can now go to bed and sleep at night.

I have a bundle package with the cable company to get better rates for high speed Internet and telephone service. Television is included in the bundle so I get more channels.

Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers - a Must Read, Epecially for Avid Mystery Readers -
Teresa Ortiz (11,020)
Teresa Ortiz
I am not one for romance novels. They are much too predicable, and everybody lives happily ever after. I much rather read a "Who-Done-it" kind of story with a lot of twists and turns, and with any kind of luck, a happy ending.
So when a good friend of mine encouraged me to read Redeeming... ( added 192 days 3 hours ago.) |

Jeff Brown (9,928) 
Jeff Brown
"This is a story about something that happened long ago when your grandfather was a child.

Love To Write, Join SearchWarp -
Gary W. Halsey Sr. (4,552)  
Gary W. Halsey Sr.
The funny thing about writing is you can say and express your thoughts, aspirations, and feelings pretty much any way you want to say it. Will folks read it? We can only hope so. I know that most of us on SearchWarp stick to mostly what we know, which seems to be the case of most authors. I... ( added 205 days 4 hours ago.) |

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.

exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses
it over his shoulder. "I'm a panda," he says, at... ( added 205 days 12 hours ago.) |
Review: Tuesdays With Morrie (2003), Mitch Albom -
Jeff Brown (9,928)
Jeff Brown
This was
huge when it came out, a national best seller. Why? Because, as the
author states, too many sleepwalk through life not aware of most of
what they seek is pointless and unfulfilling. When business owners take
their lives after failure and short lived success, when bilkers of... ( added 205 days 13 hours ago.) |

My Dear Children and Grandchildren, First of all, let me start this letter by saying to all of you, that I love you with all of my heart, and that each and every one of you mean the world to me, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart.

Review: Author and Get Rich: How to Write a Money-Making Book in Only 12 Hours (2007), Glen Dietzel -
Jeff Brown (9,928)
Jeff Brown
OK, let's deal with that 12 hours first. You are not going to write any book of considerable complexity that explains your business system in 12 hours. What Dietzel is talking about here is the actually writing time, if you write fast too, but you have to do leg work first: pre-writing, planning... ( added 206 days 11 hours ago.) |

Jeff Brown (9,928)
Jeff Brown
OK, first of all, let me tell you HOW I gave this book two stars. It's
actually an average. I gave it 1 star for the story and 4 for intent.
Since I can't give halves, it gets a 2. I'll explain story / intent
below.
I was at a business seminar getting ideas for my business when
Brendon... ( added 206 days 11 hours ago.) |
Review: The Secret Life of Bees (2003), Sue Monk Kidd -
Jeff Brown (9,928)
Jeff Brown
I surveyed my class and 80% gave it two thumbs up: 5 stars. That's 28
out of 35 students. The rest of the class gave it an OK: 3 or 4 stars.
So my giving it 5 stars has been backed by research into the general
public's taste. ;=)
Now, I'm not much for spending time on fiction. I don't... ( added 206 days 12 hours ago.) |
Review: Consilience the Unity of Knowledge -
Jeff Brown (9,928)
Jeff Brown
First of all, those who attempt to come to an understanding as to the

where we're going-- . . . well, what's being attempted here needs to be

The Other Boleyn Girl - A Book Review -
Sara O'Rourke (791) 
Sara O'Rourke
It's always best to read the book before you watch the motion picture. In this case especially, the written word of author and creator of the Early-Modern masterpiece adaptation, Philippa Gregory, feeds you more. One is definitely uncertain of what exactly The Other Boleyn Girl will offer as a... ( added 265 days 8 hours ago.) |

Jeff Brown (9,928)
Jeff Brown
This or some form of this book should be a part of every child's curriculum, beginning at least freshman year in high school. Why?
