Hi -- I was cleaning out my inbox and found this thread that I'd saved because I liked the title so much. I retired from my job as a children's psychotherapist a couple of months ago and have more time to self-promote my fiction. Before now, I was just too exhausted after working with abused...

I'd run if he was waving around something else, faster!

The most enjoyable science fiction novel I have read in several years Rarity from the Hollow by Robert Eggleton is the most enjoyable science fiction novel I have read in several years. Who could think of an intergalactic handbook for entrepreneurs? Who could turn a tree-hugger into a...

Thanks. The part of the most recent book review that I appreciated the most was not the comparison to Kurt Vonnegut. It was: "You find yourself convinced that “Hollow” was written as a diary-based autobiography by a young girl, and the banal stems from the limits of her environment, the...

Nothing paranormal was attributed with "causing" child abuse in the novel, Rarity from the Hollow. As Night Templar and Death Omen, both experienced in the field (thanks for your contributions), aptly noted, there is no excuse for abusing a child. There may be correlates relevant to...

Rarity from the Hollow is free for Kindle Fire members on Amazon. Both the ebook and paperback (Lulu) have declined. I'm not sure if the hardback is still available through Dog Horn Publishing as its owner has been so involved in another project that I haven't heard from him for several months.

Any contact info for purchase. Crap, it's too late to order now. That would be a perfect gift for my wife. She's 66. Last year I got her Lady Gaga Tee Shirts (and some other stuff, of course). When we first met, she had on a shirt similar to the above stocking (and no bra). I loved those...

Let me know if I didn't get the chapter sample available to everyone to read and I'll do something to fix it. Here's some links if you want to buy it as a Holiday present for yourself or somebody you love: http://www.amazon.com/Rarity-from-the-Hollow-ebook/dp/B007JDI508...

My novel (see introduction thrread for sample) would be loved by old hippies since I am one. This status is one that can't be faked effectively, even though I sometimes see, or work with teens, who are wearing their parents old clothing. There's so much misunderstanding about those times.

Sorry, I will keep trying but I've only gotten the font to enlarge on the book review excerpt. How do you get private messages?

"Where's he live?" Lacy Dawn pointed to the sky with her free hand. "Jesus is everybody's friend," Faith said. "It ain't Jesus, you moron," Lacy Dawn turned around to walk home. “His name’s DotCom and….” Her mother watched from the middle of the road until both children were safe.
