For Joshua Plofhard, a teenage good samaritan of Los Angeles, life is good. Well-known and well-liked by the city, loved by his friends, and adored by his new girlfriend, Joshua had it all. But when he becomes the victim of a freak mugging, a shocking secret about him is revealed, triggering a chain reaction of events that will forever change his life.

When it is discovered that Joshua carries the genes of a dying alien species in his body, life for him is turned upside-down. Now an outcast, rejected by the city that once welcomed him with open arms, Joshua is emotionally shattered by the events that have taken their toll upon him. With only his mother Alicia, friends Peter Christjes, Eric Blonfly, Rick Warris, girlfriend Kimberly Derth, and several others who come to sympathize with his plight, Joshua begins to pick up the pieces of his life.

But Joshua's problems are only beginning. Not only has Patrick Urtoma, a government agent been sent to investigate this alien teenager, but Veranda Oltzon, a candidate in the upcoming mayor election is exploiting the discrimination Joshua suffers to rally the public to her side. Also not helping is a mysterious serial killer who has now marked Joshua for death, driven by extreme prejudice against people like him.

As the countdown to his nineteenth birthday approaches, the day when the aliens return to reclaim what they created, Joshua learns many lessons about self-acceptance, friendship, compassion, loyalty, love, and how being different makes one unique. Together, he and his friends shall stand together againce the prejudice of an entire city and plea for tolerace towards all individuals, no matter who they are.

RIGHT TO RECOVER Winning the Political and Religious Wars over Stem Cell Research in America is an educational book that sheds light on the way Americans view embryonic stem cell biology. The book contains well-researched facts about all types of stem cell (bone marrow, amniotic and cord blood) treatments presently being used and their restorative effects. It also explores the research being done using stem cells derived from in-vitro fertilized eggs on laboratory animals and presents findings to support its curative potential on humans.

The information in this book was derived from intensive research, personal interviews, emails and other correspondence with national and international medical doctors, research scientists, religious leaders and elected officials as well as stories from patients, who hope to transform their lives through stem cell implants. Bible references are used to show why a 4- to 5-day-old mass of human cells in a lab dish is NOT an embryo; it’s not even an organism.

ONLY MOMENTS

ONLY MOMENTS

Publish America
April 2007
ISBN-10: 142417077X
ISBN-13: 978-1424170777

The story opens in the year 2020, with a romantic/erotic dream sequence and waking of one lonely sixty-six year-old widower Chris Vadia, a retired professional musician, and his sullen celibate perspective due to his wife dying fifteen years earlier. After establishing the time period and showing the impossibility of replacing human intimacy with the high-tech devices of the period, we flashback fifty years to 1970. The story then leads to the serendipitous and comic circumstances of how he met the love of his life, while on a wild summer vacation driving through California with three friends. A beach in Big Sur is the dramatic background for the fairy tale loss of their virginity.

Time then shifts chapter to chapter, through their college days, marriage, their struggling and successes, parental deaths, the World Trade Towers disaster, their Carnegie Hall debut, and then the crisis of having grown so far apart despite being with each other 24 hours a day. The novel explores how the deep flaws of both individuals bring them together through life, and how the chance actions of childhood experiences run so deep that they ultimately affect an entire life. At age 51, she dies; the cause of Chris' mental downfall. The reader then finds Chris in the present and the reason for the quick flashbacks of time from when he first began reminiscing on his beachside outdoor deck. The book’s climax occurs as Chris goes through a body/soul separation that is literally the culmination of all the previous chapters by using a device of repeating phrases (shown in italics) from previous chapters that now bear new meanings. The reader can now also understand that the opening dream in the first chapter was a foretelling of the entire book.

In the last chapter, his finds his life dramatically changed for the better as a result of his experience from a powerful singular event.

The unforgiving world, the false hope of technology, the commonality of human emotion throughout history ties into an uplifting romantic fairy tale. The underlying theme is the imperfection of all things human and the unrelenting passage of time, but is written in a very positive manner. The road, throughout the novel is representative of one’s life path and sense of discovery.

This story is about fictional character Lorraine who is given the mission of teaching her author, Walter Riggins, to write romance in a meaningful and entertaining manner instead of the pornographic scenes depicted in his vanity-published novels.

Delighted with her role in Walter’s life, she wants to make it permanent. She returns home, hoping to come back as a human.

Programmed with normal memories and knowledge, but little actual experience, she moves into his house, taking over his bedroom, relegating him to the sofa. Walter expected the old Lorraine, what he got was a new Lorraine, a virginal copy of the original. He knows what he has to do—seduce her.
