I started writing this fictional tale in late December of 2011. Shortly thereafter I bailed on it being I was working on another project. Then I resumed and finally finished the damn thing on May 11, 2012. Our novelette here consists of the private journal of George Martin “Marty” Cook, known as Marty to those who knew him. Thematic throughout this piece details Marty’s involvement in a relationship with a beautiful but married woman, Jerilynn Ann Lee. And the instant lovely Jerilynn breathed the life of her love into his wounded heart, well, that was it, Marty was stuck!

It is bad enough being bound in a relationship, but when it’s a relationship uniting a single person with one already married, oh, do the complexities expand drastically! Chief among these are the tensions of guilt feelings verses the life-enhancing joys found in the object of that love, in our story Jerilynn. And this is what Marty would have to balance and contend with till the end.

The nature of this short work required that I write it in the first person. I didn’t particularly like at all doing it that way. But what can I say? It is what it is.

Fisherman Mark Spitzer takes readers on an action-packed investigation of the most fierce and fearsome freshwater grotesques of the American West ever to inspire both hatred and fascination. Through the lenses of history, folklore, biology, ecology, and politics, Beautifully Grotesque Fish of the American West depicts the environmental destruction plaguing the most maligned creatures in our midst while subtly interweaving Spitzer's experiences of personal tragedy and self-discovery. Join Spitzer as he noodles for flathead catfish in Oklahoma, snags paddlefish in Missouri, trotline- and electro-fishes American eels in Arkansas, studies razorback suckers in Arizona, bounty hunts for pikeminnows in Washington State, attends a burbot festival in Utah, stirs up Asian carp in Kansas, and breaks the state record for the largest yellow bullhead ever caught in Nebraska. By examining freakish links in a vital chain and working with specialists in the field, Spitzer portrays a planet in environmental crisis and dispels the illusion that our actions don't result in long-term, toxic consequences. Spitzer offers models for fisheries and provides other sources of hope in this informative epic of redemption that ultimately celebrates the wild and resilient beauty and remaining possibilities of the American West.

One last summer to escape, to find herself, to figure out what comes next. Fans of Sarah Dessen and Jenny Han will love this contemporary, coming-of-age romance. Graduation was supposed to be a relief. Except Quinn can't avoid the rumors that plagued her throughout high school or the barrage of well-intentioned questions about her college plans. How is she supposed to know what she wants to do for the next four years, let alone the rest of her life? And why does no one understand that it's hard for her to think about the future—or feel as if she even deserves one—when her best friend is dead? Spending the summer with her aunt on the Jersey shore may just be the fresh start Quinn so desperately needs. And when she meets Malcolm, a musician with his own haunted past, she starts to believe in second chances. Can Quinn find love while finding herself?
