As a new writer, James L. Varnadoe dreamed of writing about things that interested him most, Love and War are two of those interests. After I completed my efforts toward writing my biography and ancestral history, I decided to try something totally Greek to me; a fictional story. Amanda (Light of MY Life) This story centers around two families living in New York and Ohio. Their lives come together somewhat by coincidence. Although, they lived similar life styles, they had nothing else in common except two children who fall in love with each other. These two faced the same trials and tribulations associated with young love, but encountered hardships uncommon with the youth and in todays environment. Distance threatened to destroy their love for each other and the lack of reliable communication and travel venues, posed an even greater threat. There were several people who impacted their lives in their struggled to find their way back together again. However, they found solace in their reunion after a lengthy separation and were content with the outcome of their quest for happiness. They both lived in close proximity of each other and worked to prepare the way for a wedding that would bind them to each other. The onslaught of the civil war impacted both families in the most horrific way imaginable and would place an even greater strain on their lives. This epic about family ties, faith, humor and mystique, surrounded by love and romance may whet your reading appetite. I hope to have a sequel to this story finished in the near future for your reading pleasure also.

For the major broadcast networks, the heyday of made-for-TV movies was 20th Century programming like The ABC Movie of the Week and NBC Sunday Night at the Movies. But with changing economic times and the race for ratings, the networks gradually dropped made-for-TV movies while basic cable embraced the format, especially the Hallmark Channel (with its numerous Christmas-themed movies) and the Syfy Channel (with its array of shark attack movies and other things that go bump in the night). From the waning days of the broadcast networks to the influx of basic cable TV movies, this encyclopedia covers 1,370 films produced during the period 2000-2020. For each film entry, the reader is presented with an informative storyline, cast and character lists, technical credits (producer, director, writer), air dates, and networks. It covers the networks (ABC, CBS, Fox, Ion, and NBC) and such basic cable channels as ABC Family, Disney, Fox Family, Freeform, Hallmark, INSP, Lifetime, Nickelodeon, Syfy, TBS and TNT. There is also an appendix of "Announced but Never Produced" TV movies and a performer's index.

Lifelong fans and interested newcomers will love this stunning biography of Duran Duran by the bestselling author of Gold Dust Woman and Hammer of the Gods. In Please Please Tell Me Now, bestselling rock biographer Stephen Davis tells the story of Duran Duran, the quintessential band of the 1980s. Their pretty boy looks made them the stars of fledgling MTV, but it was their brilliant musicianship that led to a string of number one hits. By the end of the decade, they had sold 60 million albums; today, they've sold over 100 million albums—and counting. Davis traces their roots to the austere 1970s British malaise that spawned both the Sex Pistols and Duran Duran—two seemingly opposite music extremes. Handsome, British, and young, it was Duran Duran that headlined Live Aid, not Bob Dylan or Led Zeppelin. The band moved in the most glamorous circles: Nick Rhodes became close with Andy Warhol, Simon LeBon with Princess Diana, and John Taylor dated quintessential British bad girl Amanda De Cadanet. With timeless hits like "Hungry Like the Wolf," "Girls on Film," "Rio," "Save a Prayer," and the bestselling James Bond theme in the series' history, "A View to Kill," Duran Duran has cemented its legacy in the pop pantheon—and with a new album and a worldwide tour on the way, they show no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Featuring exclusive interviews with the band and never-before-published photos from personal archives, Please Please Tell Me Now offers a definitive account of one of the last untold sagas in rock and roll history—a treat for diehard fans, new admirers, and music lovers of any age.
