'The Nixie's Song' is Book One of a three volume series of Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles created by Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black. 'The Nixie's Song' is the story of how Nick Vargas learns all about the magical world that no one else can see. Nick has a few issues that he needs to figure out family wise. His father meets someone and things change. He meets his new stepsister Laurie and a few other things begin to happen that can be somewhat unexplainable. This is a fast paced read and basically for the youth readers out there, but I found them interesting for adults could learn from them too. The illustrations that Holly created were well detailed and I thought they would make good coloring pages.

Gregg Shorthand
Here is a snippet from McGuffey's Eclectic Readers as this one is from the Primer. Quite a while ago I was going to start offering readings and maybe lessons in the subject, but other projects and ideas came first. Please comment on this and let me know if you or anyone would be interested in learning and reading more in Gregg shorthand. I have all the textbooks dealing with Diamond Jubilee Series. Also, I am planning on writing more from the McGuffey's and other textbooks that I have collected from my other studies. I know that Gregg shorthand is an obsolete course, but to me it's like figuring out secret code.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
