12/30/07 American Cool is Susan DiPlacido's hot collection of short stories. So hot, in fact, that Romantic Times gave it 4 1/2 Stars in its latest edition, on newsstands now. Congratulations Susan! Realistic jargon paints the settings, and the use of unusual points of view is refreshing. A bit like a literary Pulp Fiction, this book offers a glimpse into the exciting, sometimes dangerous lives of people living on the edge. —Reviewed by Jennifer R.

Support independent writing & publishing! 9/20/07 I'm a little late remembering the anniversary of 9/11. But that's OK, we should reflect on that day often, not just on the anniversary. It's been six years now, and the world is still reverberating from the consequences of the attacks. The subject has slowly been finding its way into our art, with books like Falling Man by Don DeLillo, and films like Oliver Stone's World Trade Center. My own small contribution is included in my collection of inter-connected short stories, Stories From Sunset Hill.
