Historias de 1930s

They call it the Everbright Estate-a house built on order, etiquette, and suffocating perfection. But for the three Everbright siblings, the house is a battlefield. ​Clara hides behind her perfection, Ember lashes out with her sharp-tongued jealousy, and little Henry tries to hold the crumbling pieces together. They are as different as night and day, until they are plunged into the world of Luminaria-a magical realm on the brink of total darkness. Forced to abandon the expectations of 1930s England, the siblings must face the prophecy that binds them: The Clear, The Spark, and The Oracle. Can three people who can barely stand each other save a world from eternal twilight? Or will their own friction tear Luminaria-and themselves-apart?..

!!! DISCLAIMER: THIS IS A FIRST DRAFT !!! AIITBS is a story inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft, starting in Boston Massachusetts in the year 1934. It starrs young scholar and occultist Nathaniel Butler, of the obscenely wealthy Butler family, who's dealings in magic and alchemy force him into misadventures of the certainly eldritch variety. This story is quite a ways from being finished but I already have an ending in mind, so I am confident that it will be in time. Please be patient and I hope you have fun while reading!

The Bullocks were chaotic because nobody in that house ever listened to one another. The Parkes are chaotic because everyone loves each other entirely too much. Ten years after a whirlwind romance pulled Godfrey Parke out of a forgotten existence, the walls of his Gramercy Park brownstone are loud with a brand-new kind of madness. A Week with the Parkes follows Godfrey and Irene over the course of seven ordinary, chaotic days as they navigate the beautiful, fast-paced reality of raising three distinctively eccentric children, managing the eccentricities of the returning Bullock clan, and fiercely maintaining the romantic spark that saved them both a decade prior. Young Godfrey was a man who tightly guarded his heart because he was terrified that happiness was a luxury meant for other people. Ten years later, he is a man transformed by belonging. Through small, automatic gestures-a hand resting at Irene's back, stealing kisses in crowded rooms, and laughing through domestic disasters-Godfrey lives inside the future he never thought he'd survive to see.

Sit back and prepare yourself for amusements the like of which you've never heard! Now, before we begin tonight's little parade of peculiarities, allow me to introduce your humble host. Some folks call me a raconteur, others a troublemaker, and a few-poor souls-call me their last mistake. But you, dear listener, may simply call me Alastor. I bring stories, songs, and the occasional shiver down the spine, all delivered with a smile you can hear through your speaker. In these curious times, when the whole country seems to be holding its breath and the nights - well, let's just say our evenings together have gotten much more interesting since Congress came to its senses. Speaking of, it's just about impossible to not be all smiles down at The Absinthe House on the corner of Bourbon and Bienville! And speaking of smiles, tonight's amusements feature a most intriguing gentleman from the darker corners of the Crescent City. My guest is a fellow with a taste for deals, destinies, and debts that never quite settle. Goes by the name Facilier. Tall hat, tall tales, and a talent for giving folks exactly what they think they want. A real charmer, if you don't mind the price. Together, we'll be spinning yarns of ambition, temptation, and the curious ways a man's choices can echo long after the music fades. So stay tuned, friends. Keep your hands inside the carriage, your wits about you, and your hopes... well, keep them close. You never know who might be listening."

Thanks to Bianca Castafiore, Tintin becomes the reluctant escort for Tuxedo Park's 1935 Debutante Ball. Fortunately, the "deb" he's assigned is Annie Warbucks. Not only is she a down-to-earth, tomboyish kind of gal, but she and Tintin had met before as children in 1923. With this in mind, you'd think the ball would go smoothly. But, with the pair's luck...well...it's just the beginning... The sequel to "When Tintin Met Annie".

Before Dean Martin was Dean Martin, he was Dino Paul Crocetti - a kid from the North End of Steubenville, Ohio, who ran the same streets as my father. This is not a book about Dean Martin. This is a book about my father, William Alfred Gaumer, and the world that made him. The North End in the 1930s. The phone book that told you who mattered and who didn't. The night everything went wrong on Market Street. The eight years in a grey stone building outside Columbus. The man who taught him what history was. The uncle who went to Korea and came back a different kind of quiet. The reunion that almost didn't happen. I was ten years old and I waited outside. This is the story I reconstructed from the pieces he left behind, told by the son who arrived too late to ask the questions that mattered - and had to find the answers anyway. Running Mates of Steubenville is a five-part literary memoir about fathers and sons, Rust Belt America, and what it costs a man to become himself. The full book is available on Amazon KDP. This is the opening - read it here, finish it there.
