Suddenly rich and famous, it is life in the fast lane for the fire-eating beauty, sex-crazed midget Elvis, safecracking swami and the rest of this neo-noir cast of social delinquents, until they find themselves in the crosshairs of the bloodthirsty CEO of a pharmaceutical company about to market a miracle pill that cures the common cold.
A miracle pill that also causes pancreatic cancer, a detail the CEO has bribed supervisors at the FDA to cover up.
By a wicked twist of fate, the troupe of sideshow misfits suddenly find themselves as the only ones who can stop this killer pill before it reaches the public.
Armed with little more than street smarts, they fight an uphill battle against corporate power, government corruption, a perverted cop and betrayal from within, racing the clock not only to save themselves, but prevent the biggest mass murder in American history.

LINK : Lucella Campbell
LINK
New Novel ‘LINK’ – An inspirational and timely story that seeks to reignite the memory of Humanity’s Shared Spiritual Core
Link, an adventuresome, formless entity gets fascinated with Earth during his explorations of other worlds from his non-physical realm, Altura.
However, because he is formless, he can observe but cannot truly experience what it is to be physical. He wants to have this experience. That desire grows and eventually he chooses to trade his non-physical state, to become human.
Link’s discovery of his physical condition following his transfer to Earth takes him through a series of shocks, as he uncovers up close and personal, the alienation from the whole that is the human condition and the psychic and physical heaviness of being human.
It is in this state of self-discovery that Dax, a curious, lovable 12-year old boy, and the village favorite, comes upon Link (the new human) naked.
The first of many conversations unfolds in which Dax, along with the reader, gets acquainted with the higher consciousness of Link’s non-physical, timeless world which is a reflection of the true home, that we have long forgotten, caught up as we are in the distractions and conflicts of life on Planet Earth.
Through Dax and his grandmother, Link is introduced to the village, and there he begins his journey of understanding the complicated nuances of the human condition, while attempting to create a link to and remembrance of that other world that we have long left behind.
‘LINK’ is published in ebook format by eBookIt.com and is now available at popular online retailers including Amazon.com, Barnesandnoble.com, and Apple’s iBookstore.
Review copies of ‘LINK’ are available to media contacts upon request. Lucella Campbell is available for interviews.

Tor Leingaard is a semester away from graduating college. While his friends lock down positions in marketing and banking and administrative assistance, Tor can barely align the bullet points on his resume. He tells himself that the jobs his friends are getting aren’t right for him. That they’re meaningless at best and soul-crushing at worst. Still, he wonders if he’s being left behind.
To clear his head, Tor paints graffiti. He’s been painting the same spot for years, a deserted set of train tracks so low key he’s never seen another person there. Until one day in January when he meets Darla Velasquez aka Heat, the best graffiti writer in the Twin Cities.
When Darla invites Tor to paint, he can’t refuse, even though she has no intention of sticking to the tracks. Street art, Darla says, is meant for the streets. But as Darla pulls Tor into the dangerous world of graffiti writing, the normal life he’s been avoiding looks as though it might slip away for good.

Dark Knights : Robert L. Bryan
Police Officers are the modern-day embodiment of medieval knights, going to work each day with a noble cause to protect and serve society.
The profession requires cops to see people at their worst. They see death, tragedy, crime, and despair on a daily basis.
The very nature of the tasks cops perform and the things cops see skews their sense of humor. Sometimes, a sense of humor is the only defense mechanism in a police officer’s tool box. Stripped of the ability to laugh, or forced to be politically correct in a politically incorrect work environment can be hazardous to one’s health. Coping becomes an essential component of a police officer’s arsenal.
One of the primary coping mechanisms utilized by cops is humor. A cop can find something funny about almost anything, regardless of how tragic the circumstances. Dark humor involves making light of a serious, disturbing or taboo subject matter. It is sometimes viewed as morbid, cruel, offensive, and graphic in nature and is yet, still found funny.
This is the story of the author’s twenty-year police career with the New York City Transit Police and NYPD as he worked with some of New York City’s darkest knights – those cops who did and said the funniest things under the most difficult circumstances.
C-Case by Robert L. Bryan is also on Whizbuzz Books.

Submissive Niharika : Theriyaki Kukkad
Submissive Niharika (Theriyaki Kukkad aka “the horny rooster” Erotica Series)
For Nishikanth, sex plays in the mind. How he wants to do it plays over and over again in his imagination. He picks these ideas from his subconscious mind which lie dormant only to erupt from time to time. It could be a book he has read years ago, subtle in-between-the-lines that he might picked up from a conversation or the look of a woman. He is an impressionist in that sense.
Years ago he had read a short story “Boo” (Smell), written by a maverick Indo-Pakistani writer, Saadat Hasan Manto. Manto used to pen stories with explicit scenes of primal sex. Nishikanth also remembered a conversation between him and his man-Friday, Ramswaroop. This conversation was about the village sex life, about men who spend the entire day in hard labor and only play by their natural instincts when it comes to sex. How do they do it?
Marrying the two, Nishikanth had this desire of sex that came to fruition when he meets Niharika, a fellow journalist, who he meets in a village in Southern India. Niharika is voluptuous and has her own needs to satisfy. Nishikanth finds a perfect partner in her to satisfy his needs, physical and intellectual. It’s always a mind game.
“Submissive Niharika” is an Indian Erotica that not only deals with sex but also the “subject” of sex. Read it to find out how and what plays in the character’s mind. It’s a literary learning of human nature too in an Indian context. Maybe it will tantalize your dormant desires too. I have included eight original works of graphical illustrations to supplement this beautiful story that I have so passionately written. I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Rat-Tail Curves : James Ostby
Throughout the rise of humankind we have always faced new horizons.
The humanoids in the next forest or the Neanderthals in the nearby cave, . . . . The land of other Homo sapiens across the river, or the mysterious country on the far side of the mountain range. What about the reports of even more far-away lands, and of terra firma beyond the oceans great?
And what if, because of a vast increase in total (real, objective and scientific) knowledge–and a decline amongst many people in the belief in myths, spirits, souls, and so on—some of us have arrived at a point in human exploration and advancement where there is no more?
No farther land to discover, no other planets to inhabit (and if there were, no way to get there), and no more great scientific and industrial discoveries to be made. No more because of the inherent physical, intellectual, cultural, and evolutionary limits on us all, worldwide.
Furthermore, imagine the obvious: that while scientists, researchers, and their like, have worked wonders, here we are where many of the beneficiaries of those wonders have become burdens. Is this our direction from now on? Probably, but so far only a gifted few are aware of the direction; and even if more become aware, there will never be enough of the enlightened.
Far too many are just plain dumb. Not intelligent enough to help better the world in any significant way, or to govern themselves through any knowledgeable and rational system. Perhaps they lack the mentality to even realize underlying world problems and their causes, much less to try to ameliorate them. (The doomsday clock, for example.)

Dancing with Sophia is the heart touching story of Baingana, a young man who was trying to run away from his problems, till the moment he meets Sophia and realizes that the only way to get close to her was by facing himself; however, what he had to go through was far away from his expectations.
Leaving the city where he was born was never part of Baingana’s plans or aspirations, but the moment had come when it no longer felt like home. Baingana couldn’t face his problems, so he decided to run away. The last thing he imagined was that he’d soon be going on the most meaningful journey of his life.
He didn’t want to leave Zoe, but he wasn’t ready for her, and in a moment when his mind was defeated, his heart was closed, and his being was imprisoned, he saw Sophia for the first time.
This story was written to entertain your mind, with the underlying intention of impressing on your heart.
As Sophia said to Baingana, “if you cannot impress a heart, it doesn’t matter if it knows your name.”
