“The value of Bad Timing as a cultural portrait, its subversiveness, is not in what it criticizes, but in what it celebrates—the pride of losers, the volatility of deep friendships between women, the tribal bonds between blacks and Jews, and especially love of family. This is a hilarious, venomous first novel.”—Darryl Pinckney The unnamed narrator is an artist, a single woman in her late thirties. The man she meets at a downtown club is a jazz musician, older—and married. Their attraction is instinctive, irrational, and profound—and complicated by the fact that she becomes pregnant after their first night together. Bad Timing is the story of their affair, which unfolds over one steamy summer in the dreamy enclaves of lower Manhattan. Under the erratic tutelage of her black, gay neighbor, her stentorian Jewish mother, and a circle of eccentric friends (who provide fuel as much for neurosis as for comfort), this unconventional woman struggles to reconcile her need for love with the limits and liberties of an undercover affair. Her story is filled with head-on confrontations with issues of race, ethnicity, gender, class, morals, and family—by turns bitingly funny and genuinely heartbreaking. Set in an all-too-small New York universe of artists, musicians, and writers in which the lives of our hapless heroine and her errant lover intersect repeatedly with far fewer than six degrees of separation, Bad Timing memorably depicts a woman seeking to find love and balance in a world where men and women are equally complicit in games of emotional hide-and-seek, and where culture has become little more than merchandise and personalities. With devilish insights into the clubby worlds of art and magazines, Bad Timing is a tart-yet-sweet story of modern love, lost and found.

All his victims suffered from the same problem – bad timing. And if there was one thing the Metronome Man couldn’t stand, it was bad timing. Jurgen Boogaard wasn’t always a monster. But he became one through an unfortunate series of mental, emotional, and physical insults during his formative years. As a result, he developed a unique and unhealthy obsession with a metronome. Which eventually led to another more dangerous fixation - wanting life around him to move in adherence to his rules of rhythm. Jurgen tried to ignore those who moved with reckless abandon. And even found some success in jobs where his disciplined pace prompted great productivity. But he couldn’t disregard people and their intolerable, asynchronous movements forever. Something had to give. And in Jurgen’s case, what gave was his restraint. Jurgen didn’t initially want to kill anyone. He just wanted to teach them to move at the right speed. But when his efforts failed, he had no choice. Breaking his rules of rhythm had to be met with a much more severe punishment - death. The Metronome Man: Bad Timing is the first book in a serial killer thriller series. Where the rules of rhythm lend new meaning to running out of time and running for your life. Tick-Tock.

"BoxedMan - I'm gonna make a movie, why are you laughing?" is the story of Nicholas Pasyanos's declaration, commitment and eventual completion of this improbably farfetched journey. The Walter Mitty that lives in us all taunts us throughout our lives to do something out of reach, and it is oh-so tempting. Nicholas succumbed to the siren call and jumped into the deep end of the pool, with the expectation he would learn to swim in the process. This journey could be attributed to mid-life crisis, dreamer thinking or insanity onset; take your pick. Nicholas heard all of these theories as he shared his desire with friends. With the help of divine grace, countless blessings, mini-miracles, inexplicable random occurrences, and the aid of an Academy Award winning editor, his film was completed. Then, the reality struck of entering countless film festivals, acceptance to some, and rejections from most, which is how it goes. But hey, how many people can claim an official rejection letter from the Cannes Film Festival? Beyond the self-deprecating, casual narrative, BoxedMan is an entertaining, inspirational and informative story of the journey that is making a movie.

Diamonds or Rocks is about the awareness of your inner self because that is where we find the balance of our lives, and that is also where the origin of most of our problems is found. As kids we were very happy, yet it is in our childhoods that most of our problems started. Through this book you are going to learn that there are elements the author calls rocks, which are not a natural part of you, but due to your lack of awareness of them, they are harming you. They managed to get in your mind and take up residence there, and now these intruders have got to be stopped. Through the concept behind the book Diamonds or Rocks, you will gain the tools that have the power to get rid of them and stop the damage they are doing to you. The author says, I may be the first human being to figure this out, but when you read this book you are going to realize that it all makes sense. These intruders are crushing your mind just like viruses and malware cause a computer to crash. Diamonds or Rocks was created to be as simple as possible so anyone can take advantage of it and understand it. The book uses analogies through which you will be able to distinguish such an intrusion of these elements, or rocks.
