about me

My wife and I live in the south of France where, in addition to our house, we have a three bedroom guest house (what the French call a gîte) that is an ideal place for aspiring writers to get away on a working holiday to write or to do research on the medieval city of Carcassonne, the ruined Cathar castles, the canal du midi, and the Mediterranean area.

THE AUDACITY OF HOPE AND CHANGE is a science fiction/political satire novel.

Update September 7, 2012
I have been away from the site for some time, working on revisions to the book. It has now been published by Pro-Choice Press, so I am removing the full book from this site and leaving the first two chapters for anyone who would like to check it out.

For more information, go to www.pro-choicepress.com

I will be away from the site for a while. Best wishes to all.

THE AUDACITY OF HOPE AND CHANG....

YUSHUD CHOOSEWISELY

What if the only way to save a remnant of humanity is to accept defeat and allow your enemy to destroy the world?


After discovering the secret of Area 51 and the truth behind the deaths of John F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe, the President of the United States is transported into the future, where he finds a new America in which hunger, poverty, unemployment and disease no longer exist, and science has been restored to its rightful place. These changes are attributed to a mysterious leader called Thy One. As the President learns more, he becomes increasingly troubled.

Fearing for his life, the President must return to his own time and find a way to rewrite history. But is it already too late? What if the only way to save a remnant of humanity is to accept defeat and allow your enemy to destroy the world?

This timely story of faith, hope and change is a tale of two Americas. Both are real. Only one will prevail.

THE AUDACITY OF HOPE AND CHANGE draws inspiration from the works of George Orwell, Jonathan Swift, and Agatha Christie, in a rich and unique blend of science fiction, political satire and mystery, combined into a compelling story of the struggle for supremacy between two mutually exclusive world views.

Just finished rereading the first chapter. Not sure what all you have changed since I last read it, but this is a very strong beginning. It is very well done. The only thing that bothered me personally was the "in his ears" in the first sentence. In whose ears? I still wasn't sure after reading... view book

This is a wild ride through space-time. I like the mix of futuristic space-time travel with the old west (reminds me a little of Back to the Future III). You have a style that draws the reader in quickly and holds him. One small suggestion: early in chapter one you mention, "my home land of Sco... view book
