DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn my last period class, I sat staring at the clock as if I had mind control over it. Its as if time came to a grinding halt. Finally the clocks hand clicked onto the appropriate hour and the bell rang, signaling the day was over. I got home and waited outside on the steps for my mother to come home from work. I needed encouragement, I needed a hug, I needed to tell her what happened. The car pulled into the carport as the sun was setting. I thought, finally she has arrived! I hopped off the steps and trotted over to her. As she walked toward me, I noticed her arms were folded over her chest and there was a scorned look on her face that read she was in no mood to deal with my petty issues. Whenever my mother arrived home, she would leave the car door or trunk open if there were items to be carried into the house. I spoke as I ran pass her to grab the bags. Partially out of breath, I described the details of my day as I kept in stride with her fast-paced walk. My mom told me to stop feeling sorry for myself as she emptied the bag of groceries onto the kitchen counter. She continued to say, there are a lot of kids out there that dont have half the benefits I did. Children in Africa would kill to have a roof over their head and food on their plate. How would you know what the children in Africa wanted? I thought in my head. I failed to see the relevance. It was as if someone ignited a fire or flipped a switch inside me. My very soul was being consumed with anger. Flames of self-loathing burned inside my belly, and my stomach ached badly. Deep down I knew it wouldnt be okay ever and my existence seemed ridiculous now. Waves of regret and sorrow crashed down on me all at once. My mothers comment turned the seething embers of hopelessness into full-fledged flames. I retreated to my bedroom to scrawl these intense thoughts in my diary that does not judge or disappoint.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTwo family names have come to be associated with the violence that plagued Colorado County, Texas, for decades after the end of the Civil War: the Townsends and the Staffords. Both prominent families amassed wealth and achieved status, but it was their resolve to hold on to both, by whatever means necessary, including extra-legal means, that sparked the feud. Elected office was one of the paths to success, but more important was control of the sheriff’s office, which gave one a decided advantage should the threat of gun violence arise. No Hope for Heaven, No Fear of Hell concentrates on those individual acts of private justice associated with the Stafford and Townsend families. It began with an 1871 shootout in Columbus, followed by the deaths of the Stafford brothers in 1890. The second phase blossomed after 1898 with the assassination of Larkin Hope, and concluded in 1911 with the violent deaths of Marion Hope, Jim Townsend, and Will Clements, all in the space of one month.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this first book by Jason Medina, we are given fabulously three intertwined stories that for the most part take place at the Kings Park Psychiatric Center, a currently abandoned state hospital, which was once home to thousands of insane and tortured souls. The first of these tales takes place in the 1960s when the hospital used to be known as the Kings Park State Hospital. It focuses around a suicidal adolescent girl named Amanda, who is committed to the hospitals old adolescent cottages. Over the next few years she experiences both the joys of friendship and the sorrows of loneliness, as she struggles to adjust to her new life. In the second story we are given a new version of an old Long Island urban legend about a murderous woman known only as Mary Hatchet. Ever since Mary was committed to the hospital at the tender age of eleven, after the brutal murders of her parents, her thoughts and motive have remained a mystery. Almost a decade later, a twenty-two year old Mary has gained the attention of two doctors, who make it their mission to get into her mind at the risk of unleashing the demon she struggles to keep inside. The final story takes place long after the hospital has been abandoned. When a man wakes up with amnesia on the shore of the Long Island Sound near the decayed structures of the old hospital, he begins a long journey that will take him back in time to his earliest forgotten memories and through a series of dreams and flashbacks, until he remembers everything. By that time, he may wish he stayed with amnesia.
