In the year 2000 I thought I had life pretty much figured out, at least for a guy who had spent the last 16 years paralyzed and permanently confined to a wheelchair. As the survivor of a horrific car accident at age 19, I had rolled through some pretty rough territory, enduring not only hostile physical landscapes, but hostile attitudes of those around me as well. I was tougher than most, or so I thought; but all of that changed the day I became a step parent. It is the year 2000, and I have become the Master of my disabled realm: I can pop up and down steep curbs in my wheelchair and make it look like childs play. I can disassemble and pack my wheelchair into my car in under 30 seconds flat. I can swim 1000 yards non-stop in under thirty minutes using only my arms for propulsion. I can push on these wheels longer and harder than anybody, all day long, for as long as I need to without uttering a single complaint. Yet how in the world am I going to change the diaper of this kicking, screaming two year old that Ive been left alone with for the first time? How on earth am I supposed to chase this tender Kindergartener up the stairs after he has just made off with my $200 pair of Oakley sunglasses? And what will I do the day they figure out that they can take me out of action completely by tipping me over backwards in my wheelchair? They Call Me Wheels is my story, how I fell in love with my future wife Elizabeth and virtually overnight became a wheelchair-bound stepparent to her two young sons, Josh and Ben; embarking upon the most arduous, terrifying, and at the same time the most extraordinary and satisfying adventure Ive had yet to experience. Wheels (the nickname given to me by the cocky, disbelieving cronies of Elizabeths ex husband) chronicles a three year span where I literally roll slap-dash and headlong into the unknown; at times Im frustrated, foiled and ready to throw in the towel, but in the end I am actually beginning to believe that I just might be making a difference in the lives of my newly acquired family - that is, until its my turn to give Josh the dreaded Puberty Talk.

Set during Prohibition this is one of Buffalo, New York's most blood-soaked crime tales. This is the story of the bloody reign of Polish gangster John "Korney" Kwiatkowski, which ended with one of his friends in the electric chair. Before the end came, Korney masterminded robberies all over the city, leading a gang of violent thugs, dubbed the Korney Gang, while he maintained a facade of gentility. With names like Ziggy, Bolly, and Smithy, these bootleggers, murderers, and robbers introduced Buffalo to violent crime with the introduction of the machine gun. No one was safe, including law enforcement, as the Korney Gang blasted their way out of every incident. Through careful research of newspapers, court transcripts, and genealogy, the story of this gang slowly emerges.

Although Sinclair had written very critically of organized religion in his book The Profits of Religion, in this novel he takes a more human approach to the story of Christ. Of course, the Christ character is repulsed by the show of wealth he finds in 1920s California culture, which ultimately contributes to his leaving. In that sense, They Call Me Carpenter fits well into the canon of Upton Sinclair.

Iliad, my main character who suffers from amnesia after being shot by a pervert, is now pursued by another. Toerch is his name a man who will go to any extreme to get his way and his sights are on Iliad. So far she' managed to best him at every encounter they've had. But with every set-back, he's found new ways of retaliating. The last incident was especially hurtful for Iliad because the man shot two of her friends. One of them was Diana's brother, a policeman from California visiting her. The other was Trixie, a friend, who in the ensuing death struggle managed to put them both in the river. The raging waters separate the struggling duo and Toerch is picked up by Mahogany, an acquaintance of his. She takes him to the nearest hospital, but when he realizes she's done, getting out of there becomes a priority. He devices a clever plan and with her help, he's gone long before the law discover his whereabouts. Every officer in Athens wants to get their hands on Toerch, as does Iliad.

This is my five books all collaborated into one. I started writing in 1999 in Gaol. I had attempted armed robbery with the intention of trying to save the world from global warming. I was found not guilty by reason of mental illness and that illness made me creative and I did time writing rhyme as I say. This book has over 100 of my best poems and there are also lots of cool quotes I’ve written. My favourite one is ‘Contentment you will find with a smile and quiet mind’. It has philosophies I’ve created and is packed full of insights I’ve had in my journey and recovery. This book can help with weight loss, addiction and mental health and can raise your vibration significantly. One lady who I gave a copy to had a profound dream and was very content the next day before even opening a page. In 1999 I used the 9-Pointed Star as a pattern for the cover of my first attempt at writing a book. Years later I found out that the 9-pointed star had turned up in crop circles around the world in 1999 when I first began using this symbol. I also found out the ancient Egyptians used it to represent their 9 Laws and the 6 Pointed Star, their 6 Pillars and they believed in being able to attain immortality. I also heard a voice one night say you have earned your star. Then a week later a friend said she could see it above my head in my aura. I felt very content for a month or two. I was told when learning Rei-ki that it is an ascension symbol and there are many other interpretations of the Enneagram as well. It has been used for thousands of years by some different cultures. I call contentment the ultimate cure and I say state of mind is everything, this book can help you become more content, and it can help enlighten you. Reaching such a high level will make you a good spiritual healer or Azure Warrior as I call myself. This book can help you become so content and high that you may hardly hunger, it could be the Holy Grail for some, and to be honest, most days I don’t hunger anymore though I still eat mostly one meal a day. Is this an evolutionary step for humanity to find Total Contentment and need next to nothing. All the best on your quest!!! Utopia We all need to work together as one fraternity Lifting each other up through casual pleasantry The end result evolution to enlightenment immortality This goal becomes more than individual but planetary wwwazurewarriors.com
