DOWNLOAD EBOOKLunatics, Lovers, and a Poet is an evocative collection of poems and sonnets written by Thelma Homer. It is modern poetry with a touch of the classical romantic. This fine poetry collection, sometimes whimsical and often reflective, can be read time and time again. Ms. Homer has an uncanny ability to connect with her readers on an emotional and even sometimes spiritual level because her poetry comes from deep within her own experience and personal memories. This author¿s voice rivals that of some of the truly great poets from both modern time and the 19th century.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhen the real Puck appears after a bad rehearsal of a high school production of A Midsummer Night's Dream, his mischief only makes matters worse. As he meddles with a production filled with drama divas, an over-the-top director, terrible actors, and the cast and crew's own scrapes with unrequited love, chaos descends. Identities are mistaken, spells are cast, and an actor gets transformed into a pygmy hippo -- yet somehow, in true theater fashion, the show manages to go on.
