Underground Reviews of Indie E-books

"Bone Machine" by CN James Read the full review4 stars out of 5: All in all, “Bone Machine” is one of those rare books in which the quality of the ideas out-paces the quality of the writing.  There are a lot of really interesting things implied and questioned by the events of the book, but Mr. James backs away from allowing readers to have an emotional connection to the story.  I won’t give…Continue

Article with/ without photo

I decided to kick-off this category as well :)Erm, this thread is not about the photography itself, but more about its necessity in the blog article. I have been running two blogs for a while now, but the photo what can be attached to the article is not my top agenda. Well, I do not put a photo to every article, but maybe I am thinking totally wrong here!Do you consider the article with the photo more attractive? Do you insert photos in your blog articles? If yes, where do you grab the photos…Continue

Sex Changes in Iran (Because Homosexuality is Illegal) 15 Replies

I just finished watching a documentary on YouTube. Because the Koran says homosexuality is punishable by death, the Iranian authorities insist people instead have sex changes. Some end up legally prostituting themselves afterward, because they have no way to earn money (most are shunned by their families).If you have no reproductive organs, you can temporarily marry every hour or so, allowing these poor men to be abused as well. Part one follows. Watch the rest on YouTube.  Continue

14 Year-Old Rape-Victim Beaten & Whipped to Death by Muslim Clerics 19 Replies

I read the story in the paper today and wanted to believe it couldn't be true; but it seems it is... The poor girl was raped by her much older cousin and then beaten by his family for her 'participation'. She was then sentenced to a public flogging by village elders. Muslim clerics, including the wife of the rapist, whipped her 100 times. She died the following day.Read more via the following links.…Continue

On The Anniversary Of My Mother's Death May 10

 

 

You left us and we cried.

It is a bit like when you are a child and you go out with your mother

And you hold her hand and then suddenly you stop holding her hand

And you are lost, totally lost,

Lost in a world of tall grown up strangers towering above you,

where no one can see you

And the thought goes through your mind - how can I live without my mother?

How can I exist alone?

And then she dies and you have been living…

Something, written and posted - what do you think?

I cut up behind the builders yard that held no stock any more, due mostly to it being thieved by some some desperado in the name of feeding his kids or his growing addiction to Greenalls Best Bitter. “I wish I was in Greenall Whitley land, where hearts are warm and beer is cold,” ran the ad. Brewed just down the road in woollyback land it was as weak as it was normally tepid, reminiscent of the majority of the society it sought to encourage to…
