Bunky and the Summer Wish
Bunky cannot wait for the summer holidays! Soon, his entire family, including cousin Rodney, his little Wolf Plum, and Bunky’s best friend, Rosalia, travel to the North Pole in order to visit Santa Claus. During their stay at the North Pole, Bunky will have to challenge himself while diligently studying for the Golden Decimal Mathematical Contest. As a result, he will learn more about himself and about the mysterious ways in which one’s noble dreams come true. Eventually, he will also encounter the Northern Star. Bunky and the Summer Wish is a story about perseverance, personal integrity, self-acceptance, and finding one’s true worth and inner strength in a world seemingly dominated by competition. While Bunky makes a wish upon a star on a warm summer evening, he also makes a solemn promise to do everything in his might to impress those whom he loves the most—especially his beloved Rosalia. Throughout the story, he will learn more about his true value as a person and discover the importance of holding on to one’s dreams while having faith in the righteousness of one’s heart. It is the story of an imperfect yet noble hero—the story of almost every reader.
Tommytown
Tommytown is a composite of time, people, and attitudes during a period that has long been in exile; when boys ran free outside, laughing their way to another adventure with no thought of danger from adults or even nature. The reader will travel back to the year 1955 and become part of Helen Foreman's world. It was a time when there was no public assistance and laws protecting women's rights were non-existent. This 35-year-old mother with eight children makes another lonely decision as she struggles to provide them with food and shelter. No sorcerer is going to wave a magic wand to make all her troubles disappear.

Decidedly, this year's Christmas will be Bunky's greatest adventure, yet on this adventure he will not be alone: there will be his best friends, cousin Rodney and a little Wolf Plum, as well as the entire family of Walms, the Elves, the Reindeer, and even Santa Claus himself! From the magical Walmland, through the charming Faroe Islands, and to the very heart of the fantasy world of Bunkyland, Bunky's quest to save Christmas will take him on a memorable journey through different places, but also a journey into his own heart!

An Infestation in Spanner
The beautiful gorge in Spanner, Ohio has always been a great place to visit and a refreshing part of everyday life for Spanner residents. One spring, though, abnormally large cricket eggs begin to surface at the bottom of the gorge. Two twenty-year-old friends are the first to discover the eggs and use their curiosity to take a sample of some of the eggs and take care of them until they hatch. Once the eggs do hatch, the creatures that come out of them are much larger and more aggressive than normal crickets. As hundreds of the crickets hatch they become larger and more monstrous by the second. It soon becomes clear to all of the residents of Spanner that an infestation of epic proportions is at hand. The quick-witted and lucky ones are able to escape Spanner and get as far away as possible from the deadly creatures while the others are trapped in their homes and other buildings in the town. As the crickets begin to close in on the buildings, realizing their prey is trapped inside, everyone has to do what they can to help each other and survive.

The Perfect Narcissist
“So you’re asking if divorce is possible?” Wellington asked. “Yes, but one question first,” Bunky said. “Does Catherine love me? She says she does, but I don’t know. Can a narcissist actually love someone?” Dr. Wellington smiled ruefully. “Of course she can. She’s been deeply in love for a long time… with herself. As for you, I’m sorry, but what she feels for you isn’t love in the normal sense. You do a good job of enabling her, and I’m sure she likes that. I’m sure she likes the lifestyle you provide, too. Those ‘likes’ mimic love, but don’t ever cross her. I’m not sure those ‘likes’ will hold up.” “Don’t cross her?” Bunky smiled. “I can...
