January's Thaw
J Conrad Guest
Many people obsess over their past, but no one more than I. Perchance it’s
because, as a man out of time, I left behind so much of it unlived. If that makes
little sense, consider that I’m a time traveler.
Although the backdrop for my story is time travel and alternate realities, the
underlying theme is a more human one—of love lost, another love found only
to be lost, and of a decision, the result of a single regret brought about by the
realization that my self-professed courage to never risk my heart to love was
instead cowardice, to rectify a wrong in a life filled with myriad regrets.
You may judge me, as it is man’s nature to judge others, or discount my story
as the ravings of a lunatic mind or simply the fiction of an overactive
imagination—but before you do, I ask that you read the words that follow and
then ask yourself if you would have acted any differently.

Celluloid Strangers
Eric Wasserman
Four brothers leave their home in the northeast in the 1930's and converge in
Los Angeles after WWII. A lawyer, a mobster, a screenwriter and a
shopkeeper, each of these men makes a profound impact on the emerging
world of postwar California as they deal with the impact their shared history
has had upon them. Thrilling, humorous, gripping and satisfying, it is a
wonderful first novel from a first rate writer.
