Kraig Millar Launches New Novella on Amazon.com
by BWW News Desk - January 09, 2015
Gulf Coast, Mississippi based outdoor activities enthusiast and an author, Kraig Millar, has announced that his first novella, 'Caught Off Balance' has been launched and is available on Amazon.com under the Inspirational Fiction genre. With the early reviews confirming the book to be a compulsive page turner for its readers, 'Caught Off Balance' tells a heartwarming tale that's more of a heady cocktail of the hard fought battles of life, love, hope and healing. Through a truly compelling narrative delivered in a refreshing writing style, the author literally forces his readers into getting involved in and caring about the outcome of the story and how it turns out for the protagonist, Vince Fowler, the troubled teen who is mentored by Jacob Fitts, an elderly raft guide with bizarre stories about guardian angels. What really works for the book is its astonishing climax that literally wakes one up as none can see it coming! Released under the banner of CreateSpace, 'Caught Off Balance' has 164 pages and is available in paperback edition for $7.99 from Amazon's online book store. The book is also available in Kindle ebook format on Amazon Kindle Bookstore for just $0.99 under a special promotion. After the initial promotion period, the ebook will be available for $2.99. The ebook is Text-to-Speech enabled and one can switch between reading and listening without losing their place. The feature is available on Kindle Fire HDX, Kindle Fire HD, Kindle Touch, Kindle Keyboard, Kindle (2nd generation), and Kindle DX. 'We're all living a quite ordinary and average life. Surrounded by constant negativity and struck by tragedies, most of us seem to be caught in an endless vicious circle, fighting with ourselves,' says Kraig Millar, the author of the book. 'Through this book I have aimed to tell an inspiring story to my readers and to convince them to keep faith as it is the most powerful tool they have to turn their lives around, just like it happens for the protagonist of my story!' Great characterization and gripping narrative ensures that the readers of 'Caught Off Balance' are hooked to the intriguing story of Vince Fowler and Jacob Fitts whom life brings together through a strange turn of events. The book begins with Jacob Fitts, a happy, jolly fellow of faith who is an elderly raft guide, having a stroke. Jacob ends up as a resident at the Serenity Nursing Home, where he meets Vince Fowler, a rather shy and quiet teenager who lost his father to suicide and is now serving community service hours for being involved in a locker-room brawl when he stood up for his friend against a bully. Things start to get a little uncanny for Vince with the far-fetched anecdotes that Jacob shares with him regularly. Vince doesn't believe the stories, but the more time he spends with Jacob, the more he wonders if there might be some truth behind his lore. No matter what wild tales the old man might cook up, Vince couldn't get himself to believe that guardian angels could be for real. 'There is so much negativity in the world today. I wanted to write a story that takes an unfavorable situation and shows the positive that can occur. While there are some dark and dramatic moments, the story offers a genuine outlook along with some comical wit. Many of my own life experiences and a few of those around me have been the inspiration for me to write this book, which is very dear to my heart,' speaking on the inspiration for his new book, the author says. 'Faith is a powerful tool and I sincerely hope that my book will be able to help my readers shun negativity from their life and experience hope and inspiration!' Being considered as one of the immensely powerful books released in the inspirational fiction genre in recent months, 'Caught Off Balance' by Kraig Millar is expected to emerge as a must-read inspirational story for the young, the old and all of those in-between. To buy the book 'Caught Off Balance,' please visit Amazon.com About Author Kraig Millar Kraig Millar is an inspirational fiction writer.

Poet Andrew Oerke Receives 2015 William Meredith Award for Poetry
by BWW News Desk - January 09, 2015
On January 9th, the anniversary of America's former US Poet Laureate, the 2015 poetry award named for William Meredith was be conferred on Andrew Oerke by the William Meredith Foundation. Oerke who died in 2014, was a true Renaissance man: CEO of an environmental foundation, president of a microfinance organization, Peace Corps Director, Golden Gloves boxing champion, and academic, he was a poet of great integrity and spiritual authority. 'The poet has to write from the real stuff of life, the major concerns of the heart, and of life today,' he has said. Like Meredith, a friend and colleague, Oerke believed that poetry was more than just words on a page, that it is a way of living and perceiving and relating to other people. For them, poetry can be useful in bringing about social justice and serve as a solution for changing the mind and spirit of mankind. 'Hunger's grip is cold stone,' Oerke has written of famine in Africa. 'It does not forgive good intentions and tonic by the pool.' In his extraordinarily rich and varied career, Oreke has given us an example of a life lived purposely and fully and well. Harold Bloom has said of Oerke, '...his eye is shrewd, his mind capacious, and his generosity toward mankind is endless. He is very much a person who lives out in the world, aiding other men and women to live better lives.' Literary critic Jewel Spears Brooker believes, 'Andrew Oerke writes with enormous depth of feeling and mastery of form. His poems are an American treasure.' William Meredith himself, writing with his partner several years ago, has said, 'Andrew Oerke's work is a window on the world, a world seen through the compassionate eye of a fellow pilgrim. In the exquisite particulars of Africa, he sings the human condition, 'in the heart's duress, on the heart's behalf.' Please see the attached biography for a full description of Oerke's many awards, publications, and achievements. Oerke's New and Selected Poems, THE WALL will be published by Poets's Choice Press and launched at a major retrospective of Bulgarian Art at the Slater Museum in Norwich Connecticut, June 21st 2015. The award also carries a cash prize and promotional events scheduled throughout the year.
