His Piece of Peace


B. Love - 2016
    Tired, jaded, and frustrated, Benz storms out of the bank and into the broad chest of Malachi. With no knowledge of Benz, or her situation, Malachi hands Benz enough money to pay her bills for the month and have some left over. The second time Benz saw Malachi it was after hearing shots fired in the Kroger parking lot – when he jumps into her car, points a gun to her head, and tells her to drive! When Malachi is accused of killing a cop, his only hope is to flee Memphis while his Lawyer pleads his case. Because he helped her out, Benz saw this as the perfect opportunity to return the favor. Food? Sure. Shelter? Fine. Go on the run with you? No – wait, okay. Okay? Benz can’t believe the hold Malachi has on her. She knows little to nothing about this man; yet she’s putting her life and freedom in jeopardy just to be with him. As if that isn’t a big enough burden to carry on their shoulders, they have to deal with lingering exes that won’t catch the hint that they’ve moved on. Landen and Porsha join forces to find Malachi and Benz before the police do. Will Malachi and Benz make it to Cuba and live happily ever after? Will they be found by the police and face prison time or even death? Or, will Landen and Porsha find them and lay claim to their hearts and break up their union before it really even starts?

The Loneliest Hobo: The Longest Road


Geoffrey Peyton - 2015
    I was in no real rush to get back home immediately and I fancied a bit of a stroll anyway. This stroll took me over a month to complete, and as the chilly autumn became a very cold winter I realised that living the life of a hobo wasn't as easy as one may think. The only only items on my person that kept me going through the seven weeks or so was a hot water bottle, a single calor gas stove and my radio. But there were times when even those life savers ran out of their respective fuels, and soon depression, hunger and eventual thieving, took priority for my needs.      This is the story of my 250 mile walk home to Birmingham from St. Ives, Cornwall, in the autumn of 1990.

Dark Knights: The Dark Humor of Police Officers


Robert L. Bryan - 2017
    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.
