I want to read your blogs. You do blog,… Continue

Scientist and Christian Mystics

Our scientists have developed powerful and sophisticated devices to examine the outer world and the inner world of the atom. They have confirmed that it is a vibrating living expanse of energy, moving and in harmony with a greater universe. They have found that all entities living and nonliving are vibrating and are an integral and important part of this external creation. They have also found that these different parts are serving the whole, just as the legs, hands, fingers and ears are meant… Continue

The City of Gardens Collection / 2008 - 2018

My blogs may be a bit off the topic, but I believe that these issues are very important. I use literature as my method of delivery. It is not creative writing and does not fall under the catagory of being true literature, but more as a case study. I am hoping to learn more of how to write from my friends at iFOGO. My work does have a small targeted audience and I would like to increase that by implementing talent.

When I read the blogs from my friends at iFogo, I see professional… Continue

Book Series / An Ounce of Rage

“The City of Gardens Collection” is a ten year case study of Victoria, BC, Canada. It takes Victoria’s social workings and displays them as an example. Although a small city, this series will capture ten years of successes and challenges it faced trying to contain homelessness and its contributing factors such as mental illness and addiction.

Even though it is a small city, it still has big city problems. Geographically, the problems are worse than other cities like Toronto or… Continue

Rules for Christmas Shopping

Rules for Christmas Shopping

With the days before Christmas rapidly dwindling, there are some out there who not only already have every single perfect gift bought – but gaily wrapped and snuggled under the before now vibrantly decorated sparkling tree. Their thoughtful planning has every reservation made, every guest list filled with no one forgotten, every detail immortalized, every schedule scheduled and every event memorized, every greeting card ready to mail …

Religion and Science help each other

Many people today view science and religion as two radically different ways to understand the world, but religion and science strengthen each other’s belief because they are both concerned with what is true. They were not meant to live alone in isolation, divorced from each other so tear down the barricades that divide them because faith and reason are meant to live happily together. Reason does not destroy faith, but fulfills it so we can use our intelligence as a path to spiritual awareness… Continue

Feel Good Story

In search of traditional Hawaiian healing venues I circumnavigated the Big Island sampling lomi-lomi, and other forms of massage along the way. What better way to rejuvenate body and mind than in the knowing hands of masters and restorative waters of Hawai’i. If you follow in my footsteps, I promise you won’t be sorry.

MORAL DILEMMA CH, 3and 4

CH. 3 BACK TO TOPEKA

The killer of The Unholy Priest returned home, he lived in Topeka, Kansas, he checked in at work. Captain Russell Brock saw Larry arrive. Larry was hard to miss. He was six foot five, lanky build, good looking, and had silvery brown hair that gave him a look of a distinguished judge or successful business CEO. Captain Brock made a snide remark, “there’s that lazy detective whose case load is off the charts.”

“No problem, I’m gonna retire soon.”

“I… Continue

The Other Side of the Fence: Review

Genre: Special Interest

Title: City of Gardens: The Other Side of the Fence

Author: Patrick J. Schnerch

Society cannot give up on people for what they did in the past; it is what they do today that counts.

The statistics are staggering. It is a societal disease that many choose to ignore until a face-to-face encounter with the sad reality. The numbers have no face, no personality; the numbers are just that, numbers. There is Ray, who was raised by a… Continue

Are Authors Your Targeted Buyer?

Are Authors Your Targeted Buyers? Social networks are great for socializing but should they be an author's principal venue for trying to sell books? What is your experience?

Consider those networks principally populated by authors. Some are extremely useful for providing resources, sharing ideas, experiences, obtaining inspiration, finding writing tools, and creating mutually beneficial relationships. However, taken alone, these networks should not be an author's sole or… Continue

Does Your Fictional Character Come To Life?

There are many things that bring a character to life. One is an adequate description of the person and another is emotion. Let’s begin with the description of characters. We need to see the character with our mind’s eye, if possible. For example, Melinda’s description of her father gives you a feel, not only of his physical appearance, but also of his deeper inner self. Read the description of her father and see if you can feel his presence and what he is like deep down inside.

“Her… Continue
