Wilhelm Reich: una biografía personal by Ilse Ollendorff Reich May 22, 2012 $5.99 67355 words Sample 20%
Author bio:
For the most part, this obituary was written by Ilse; only a few small changes have been added by the family. Ilse Ollendorff Reich, 99, who spent the 1940's and 1950's in a marriage to the controversial psychiatrist Wilhelm Reich, died on Friday, December 19, 2008, at the home of her son in Leverett, MA. Ilse had moved to Amherst in 1989. Ilse was born March 13, l909 in Breslau, Germany, daughter to Georg Ollendorff and Margarete Muhr. Growing up in Nazi Germany, Ilse became an ardent Socialist; later in the United States, she became active in the American Society of Friends and the Peace Movement. She was educated and lived in Breslau (now Wroclaw, Poland) until March, l933 when she fled Nazi Germany for France. She lived in Paris where she worked for the American Joint Distribution Committee until her emigration to the United States in February, l939. She met and married Wilhelm Reich later in that year, and started to work for him in early l940 as bookkeeper and administrator. After taking a course in laboratory technique, she also worked as a laboratory assistant in his research institute. A son, Peter Reich, was born in April of l944. Ilse became a U.S. citizen in 1947. Dr Reich moved his Orgone Institute and research enterprise permanently from New York to Rangeley, Maine in l949, and she lived there until l954, when she separated from Reich. Wilhelm Reich died in 1957. Ilse began her studies for a career in education in 1954, earning a BS (summa cum laude) from University of Hartford in l960, a MA in Childhood Education from Teachers College, Columbia University in l962, and a Professional Diploma in Teaching Foreign Languages from the same institution in l965. She taught both French and German in public elementary, junior high, and high schools in Connecticut for l7 years before retiring in l974. She had been active in Germany in the socialist movement, and was an activist for peace and prison reform. After her separation from Reich in l954, she renewed her social activities in the League of Women Voters and the Womens' International League for Peace and Freedom. She sought contact with Quakers through attendance in l955 at the Avon Institute, and became at that time a member of the Wider Quaker Fellowship. After moving to Fairfield County, Connecticut, in l964, she became a regular attender at Wilton Monthly Meeting, which she eventually joined in l968. She was active in that Meeting as representative to the Connecticut Friends Council and as assistant clerk in the later l970's. When she moved in l979 to the Friends Community in North Easton, she transferred her membership to the North Easton Meeting, where she held offices as treasurer and Clerk. She was a member of New England Yearly Meeting (NEYM) Ministry and Counsel Committee, of NEYM Friends General Committee (FGC). She attended FGC Gatherings for more than 20 years, and was a member of FGC's Publication Committee. She transferred her membership from North Easton to Mt. Toby MM, when she moved to Amherst in l989, and at that time became a board member of Woolman Hill. While living in Connecticut, she was a volunteer visitor and teacher at Danbury Federal Prison under the auspices of the American Friends Service Committee, and at the same time a visitor at Connecticut jails, prisons and reformatory under the auspices of the Connecticut Prison Association. In l969, her biography of Wilhelm Reich was published by St. Martin's Press, later translated and published in French, German, Spanish and Japanese editions. She also published a pamphlet on Angels. Ilse moved to Clark House, Amherst, in 1989, and in January, 2001 moved to The Arbors at Amherst, an assisted living facility. At the time of her death she was the Arbor's oldest resident. Having entered Hospice Care recently, she moved to her son's home in Leverett in mid-December.

Leyendas Celtas de Galicia y Asturias by Eliseo Mauas Pinto May 20, 2012 $1.99 29497 words Sample 33%
Author bio:
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, I took knowledge of the Celtic world at the age of twenty motivated by my love of literary and musical subjects. Thanks to Janet & Robin Williamson (www.pigswhiskermusic.co.uk), and Irish harp champion Sylvia Woods (www.harpcenter.com), I began to incorporate, the melodies and knowledge of traditional techniques and instruments, focusing on the implementation of whistle and Gaelic harp. Ireland, with its legends and mythological cycle, lured me to cross the main gate of the Celtic world. Passion that lead me by 1985 to organize a Celtic Festival in Buenos Aires (historically the first took place in l960), as well as other cultural and musical activities within the Irish community living in Argentina, thereby developing an attitude because of the disregard on certain community sectors for their Celtic roots. Convinced of the need to create a center that would bring young people linked by inheritance and / or affection for their Celtic roots, in 1986 I participated as co-founder of the Celtic Association of Galician Pipers, crystallizing my longing for a Celtic awakening in South America . Identified with a deep pan-celtic commitment, studied the folklore and history of Ireland and its sister nations, Scotland, Wales, Brittany in Armorica, and Spanish celtic, Galicia and Asturias. Along with the Celtic group 'Poitín' belonging to this Association, I played the harp and whistles,and wrote some Gaelic poetry featuring a traditional projection of my own. In the year 1988 it was published in Spain my work' Correspondence between the Galician and Asturian Legends', a comparative test that parallels the grounds of Celtic folklore. This edition was done in Asturian language due to the management of the Celtic League de Asturias and the support of the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport of Asturias. At the beginning of'90 and after several performances and a tour in Patagonia, for welsh communities settled in our country, 'Poitín' dissolves, leaving a testimony tape released independently in 1988, memorable for being the first of its kind in Argentina. Along with Manuel Castro I published in 1993 a book of poems called 'Celtic Legacy', a bilingual edition in Galician / Spanish, unprecedented, poems of own authorship and bardic styled. I took part as a co-founder of subsequent bands like 'Lenda Gwyn' and 'Duir', staying active with the latter about four years, and with whom O participated in the First and Second 'Keltoi' Celtic Festival ion Buenos Aires. In October l997, I performed soloist in the welsh 'Gorsedd' of Patagonia, Argentina, the first since 1910, where I was invited to join the Bardic Circle at the behest of the Welsh Community of Trelew. Later that month, I quit 'Duir' to pursue a solo project due to a proposal made by a record label in California, USA. This motivated me to meet other musicians of equal entity under a new name 'Bran', with whom I issued 'Awen', my debut CD album in July 1998. Performances led me to the Astros Theater, Opera, Margarita Xirgu, Pelayo, Auditorio de Belgrano and ND Ateneo; Irish Centers, Theaters, Pubs and located in Rosario, Pergamino, Junin and La Plata, to reach the status of beings the first Argentine to participate in the "Celtic The 5th Celtic Meeting" held in Santiago de Chile in November 2002 and in the "Primer Festival Celta" in Montevideo in March 2003. Solo performances w/ Gaelic harp led me to various audiences and emblematic places as the Argentine Theatre of La Plata & Tortoni Café in Buenos Aires. In the month of May 2003, the prestigious Galician folk group "Luar na Lubre" add music to one of my poems. This collaboration is crystallized in April 2004 with the inclusion of this piece on two tracks from the album "Hai un Paraiso" published under the label Warner Music Spain. Alongside Bran, I did participated as guest Musician of their South American tour, performing at the Opera Theatre in Buenos Aires on 12-7-04. Along with a friend musician , Gabriel Bollani, I developed in 2006/2007 a new Celtic musical project that combines virtual and acoustic sounds. Songs of love and hope, along with instrumentals experience a new hue under a new style which I decided to label as “New Celtic”. On September 2008 I created a blogsite of my own named "Celtic Sprite - My musical perspective on celtic roots and other works”. Music, culture and literature take place along with the collaboration of musicians and journalists from other countries. On January 2010 I created the Facebook Page “Amigos Celtas” A site intended to spread celtic culture and activities in Spanish, along with local and foreign co-equipers. On September 2011 I created the Facebook Page "Love of Rhiannon - The Celtic Moon Goddess".

Author bio:
Rodolfo Martínez (Candás, Asturias, 1965) publica su primer relato en 1987 y no tarda en convertirse en uno de los autores indispensables de la literatura fantástica española, aunque si una característica define su obra es la del mestizaje de géneros, mezclando con engañosa sencillez y sin ningún rubor numerosos registros, desde la ciencia ficción y la fantasía hasta la novela negra y el thriller, consiguiendo que sus obras sean difícilmente encasillables. Ganador del premio Minotauro (otorgado por la editorial Planeta) por «Los sicarios del cielo», ha cosechado numerosos galardones a lo largo de su carrera literaria, como el Asturias de Novela, el UPV de relato fantástico y, en varias ocasiones, el Ignotus (en sus categorías de novela, novela corta y cuento). Su obra holmesiana, compuesta hasta el momento de cuatro libros, ha sido traducida al portugués, al polaco, al turco y al francés y varios de sus relatos han aparecido en publicaciones francesas. En 2009 y con «El adepto de la Reina», inició un nuevo ciclo narrativo en el que conviven elementos de la novela de espías de acción con algunos de los temas y escenarios más característicos de la fantasía. Recientemente ha empezado a recopilar su ciclo narrativo de Drímar en cuatro volúmenes, todos ellos publicados por Sportula.

Luis Murillo nace en Hinojosa del Duque, Córdoba. Desde muy joven se dedica al periodismo y a la literatura, obteniendo numerosos premios de cuentos. Más tarde se centra en su faceta de guionista cinematográfico, escribiendo diecinueve largometrajes; entre ellos, la exitosa saga de películas protagonizadas por el grupo Parchís que se inició con La guerra de los Niños. Posteriormente desarrolla su labor creativa en el terreno de la televisión, donde destacan sus catorce años de colaboración con Narciso Ibáñez Serrador en Un, dos, tres y Hablemos de Sexo, y siete como director creativo de la productora Videomedia con espacios tan conocidos como El Precio Justo y Lo que Necesitas es Amor. En 2006 regresa a la literatura y concibe una saga novelística bajo el título de DAN FOSTER. La citada saga está protagonizada por Daniel, «Dan», Foster, un escritor español de best-sellers que en cada obra investiga un tema de impacto mundial con el objeto de publicar un libro para que sea un superventas. Esta investigación se convierte en una gran aventura para él, con sus correspondientes amores, peligros y misterios, constituyendo dichas peripecias el argumento de cada entrega novelística. En 2008 aparece la primera obra de la saga, "La Púrpura Negra", novela que narra una triple conspiración contra un Papa progresista y cuya versión digital componen las páginas de este ebook. En 2011 publica la segunda entrega, "Currículum Mortis", donde Dan Foster investiga las misteriosas muertes del presidente Kennedy y de la actriz Marilyn Monroe, desvelando un misterio absolutamente inimaginable para el lector.
El Templo de la Naturaleza by Paul Andreas Wunderlich May 12, 2012 Free! 17550 words Read a sample
Author bio:
Soy un amante de la literatura fantástica; el transporte a otros mundos jamás a dejado mi lado desde que nos hicimos amigos, en aquel entonces. Opino que la vida es bella rimándola y generando tras ella metáforas para explicar sus fenómenos alternos. Os invito a perseguir las letras que quedaron plasmadas tras la publicación de mi primera obra artística. Las letras quizá admitan dejarse probar tras alguna dosis inicial, y espero que lo sigan haciendo luego de su degustar prolongado. Soy un filósofo enamorado de la vida, y sobre ella me gusta refleccionar. Quizá de vez en cuando me aventure por los senderos que a muchos nos gustan festejar. Entre otras veces, me gusta aislarme, y focalizar mi pasión sobre aquella cosa que a todos nos elude: los enigmas de la vida. Y sobre ellos a veces escribo y tergiverso a historias fantásticas. Espero poder compartir tales aventuras con vosotros.

Author bio:
Riley Weber resides in Mesa, Arizona. He has been telling (and making up) stories since he was young. Many moons ago, Riley's favorite topic in grade school was not recess, but creative writing. Recess and lunch came second and third. He loves to write stories of adventures in far (and close) away lands. His inspiration comes from his two young boys who love all things that have to do with diggers, dinosaurs, sports, cars, and chicken nuggets. His stories are tried and tested on his two little munchkins. Riley has always had a passion for art and doodling. He draws cartoons on nearly every paper that comes within arms length of his hands. Recently, he has fined tuned some of his art and writing skills by studying painting and fine art at the local community college. He has also taken courses in writing and storytelling, and writes stories and songs in his free time. Riley has composed and recorded dozens of songs for children which are available worldwide by the character he invented; Nooshi the Balloon Dude. Some of Riley's compositions by Nooshi are top children's Easter, Halloween, and birthday songs. Just recently Riley has dove into the world of authoring and illustrating ebooks.
