   Prince Maximillian, the playboy prince, is having way too much fun with the ladies, young and old and everything in between, to keep his name clean. Incorrigible, he’s been synonymous with scandalous headlines since he turned sixteen. While his laughing eyes, smooth talk, and charming manner make him the darling female population, the Graziano royal family despairs of him ever settling down. But can he find a woman who will rein in his wild streak and fix his princely image?

   Fourteen-year-old Luke dreams of spending July at  Camp Unlimited, where campers explore cave networks, set off fireworks in pyrotech workshops, and sleep in tree house hammocks. But to get into the camp, Luke needs to demonstrate excellence in a sport, the arts, or

school.

   More likely, he’ll end up at SURF, his town’s rec camp, where athlete’s foot, mildew, and warts plague the gym, bedbugs and lice infest the couches, and clumps of hair make frequent appearances in the burgers.

NOODLES, by Elan Mufti 

    An Indonesian army general's son, who recently graduated high school, continues his education at a college in San Francisco. The 19-year-old was a boy headed for trouble. His father hoped that the responsibility and overseas life experience would change his son's attitude.

THE LAST CHRONICLER by Judy Johns Heathcoe

While tunneling through a mountain in the Russian Southern Urals, a team of engineers are trapped in a deep, large, cavern containing a living rain forest. Looking for a way out, they discover a hermitage that once was home to a historical society who called themselves chroniclers, whose members were able to travel in time to view a famous person or event in order to record history correctly.
In the hermitage library, among the many chronicles, they are privileged to view the lives of Vincent van Gogh, Edgar Allan Poe, and Nicholas II, last Tsar of Russia, and his family.  But hiding out and watching their every move are the remaining chroniclers who are determined to keep their existence a secret, even to the point of murdering any that discover it. The engineers find themselves running for their lives through the seemingly endless forest, wondering whether they would face death at the hands of the dangerous and adamant chroniclers. . .or the primeval creatures of the forest.

 Jack's News!

  by your Official Bookstore Cat, 

and Gossip Columnist.

      Sorry to say I haven't had a lot of mail this week.

    Arline's depressed, but that's not  unusual. She's had a lot of questions and she's answering them the best she can...I guess.  Personally I didn't think it was so hard to understand...

1. The WriteWordsInc.com web site will close on or before the beginning of next year.

2. All our published books will remain on sale at Amazon.com and other web bookstores unless you tell us to STOP because you've made other arrangements.
    a. In making other arrangements you are free to use, without charge, any and all files and covers created by us, but NOT our ISBNs, as ISBNs are publisher specific. If you sign with another publisher, or self publish, you must NOT use an ISBN attached to OUR company...

3. After the first of next year,  you will only be paid once a year, in January.

See? Not so complicated. Even Spunky gets it!

   Roger's done being mad at me, I guess, cause he played his guitar twice this week. He's still giving me that diet cat food instead of treats, though.

   Spunky snuck out and stayed out all night (everything I do she tries to copy me).  Now I KNOW she wasn't interested in Lady Cats, so I don't know what she thought she'd do out there under the Harvest Moon...

   PLEASE don't YOU forget to send me news of any personal appearances, signings and so on... so I'll have some gossip to pass on next week.

Just send an e-mail to arline@mail.com with 

 "News for Jack" 

 in the subject line, and

I'll make sure it shows up here for all the world to see!
