My new start.....

Welcome to my little adventure. I'm really excited about the upcoming release of Moonless Night. I've been working hard on it since November of 2009. I'm already working on the sequel Blood Moon. It will have many surprises in it.

So I've been asked a few times how I write a book. Of course everyone gets the sarcastic answer first. Sit in chair and write. But that's the truth of it. You just sit down and write until it's done. Then you set it aside and work on something else. Come back to it in a few months and go through it again. Just keep at it. It's hard and fun and a crazy ride.

After the Civil War, there was not an automatic integration of the African American population. The reconstruction is viewed by many as a failure due to the events that took place. The segregation laws and what became known as the Jim Crow laws hampered the African American community’s ab...

Origins of the Great Depression and its Conclusion

Image
The Great Depression was not just an American concern, it spread throughout the world rapidly, creating a worldwide economic crisis. One of the main causes of the Great Depression was the fall in total demand. As people lost money in the Stock Market Crash of 1929 and the banks began to collapse the demand for products decreased significantly. This decline could only be restored by an increase in government spending to stabilize the industries. A reason that the United States Stock Market crashed was that too many products were produced too quickly. The production succeeded the demand. One article written in 1931 states the issue that was created “We have instead the paradox that production has increased so rapidly as to bring with it poverty, unemployment, government deficits, and high taxation.”1 This quote sums up the created problem beautifully.  Some other issues contributed but the main issue was the lack of demand. After the Stock Market Crash consumers began to become uncer...
