Army Recognition

For over a year-and-a-half, I've been distributing a package of ten previously published short stories to our armed forces. All ten are humorous fantasy or scifi stories. I've sent out hundreds of letters and emails advising individuals and units how to get a copy of the .PDF file. I've often wondered if anyone was reading the stories, but recently my question was answered. I received a large envelope from the Army and inside was a letter signed by the Secretary of the Army and the Army Chief-of… Continue

Good Facebook Tips

Yesterday kicked off Anti-bullying Week and it goes from November 16-20 2009. One thing that is really being focused upon is the problem of cyber-bullying.

The problem is a huge one on social sites like My Space, Facebook, Twitter, Bebo and others where kids can go and interact with their friends as well as adults. . Facebook has decided to take some preventative measures and has launch… Continue

Poem: When Will You Come?

Oh my Lord – When will You come? Will I be found, before my earthly life is done? Will I experience Your Resurrection Power and observe how sin You have conquered & devoured? It’s a win-win scenario, for me, in any case – As I long to see Your radiance, revealed at Heaven’s pace. To enter Your gates with humble willingness is real, knowing that I’m clothed by Your Righteousness. When will You come? Will I be found, before Death has finally succumbed? Although Your timetable has not bee… Continue

The Yearning for the day by Sohail Mahmood

Take the Challenge!

Ladies, if, you have found your way to my website, it occurred to me that I have made no reference to “Take the Challenge!” No doubt, you have seen reference on Twitter, Face book, My Space, possibly even in articles that I have written on Self growth, Ezine, or Article dashboard. What do I mean? When we reach our forties the menopause looms. Some pay no heed, while the vast majority dread it! Be prepared by taking control early. Know in advance that this time in your life, indeed the final ch… Continue
