A Carefree Lighthearted Collection of Short Stories to Help you Escape from the Constantly Depressing Political and Global News
Potomac Falls, VA (PRWeb) December 30, 2006 -- Today's average person is far too busy to become emotionally involved in reading and trying to finish a lengthy novel. Their average day is usually already so stressful that it requires soothing by reading something simply entertaining, not something that evokes more conflict. Enter the modern uplifting short story. Outskirts Press proudly announces "The Fiction Writer," written by John Daly.
First time short story writer John Daly had been a civil trial attorney in private practice for many years. The very nature of his profession required him to be involved with clients that related descriptions of calamities and tragedies that could befall any of us. Seldom was there any good news in a new client's initial interview.
"During that interview, I compassionately thought of the narrative as 'another sad story on the boulevard of broken dreams,'" said John Daly. The first thought, after the legal solution was begun, was to attempt to restore the client's faith in the belief that "wishes and dreams do come true". Sunshine and flowers are all around all of us. Just look up and you can see clouds and blue sky."
"'The Fiction Writer' is a fun book of short stories! Readers can read a single story in one sitting and then put it down. You can select a story to read that you think might be appropriate to the kind of a day you have had. When you do return to the book you don't have to re-read parts of it to refresh your memory on who the characters are. You just start a new and different pleasant story," said Daly.
This book is small and light enough to take with you where ever you go. As a present or thank you gift, it would be unsurpassed.

Health Insurance Alternatives for the Uninsured
Recently, I read an article in this publication, "The Middle-Class Struggling with Health Insurance." Health insurance costs are certainly an issue for everyone today, especially the self-employed and those working for small companies. Many companies are trying to cut costs and those cost-cutting measures may eliminate employee health coverage, forcing employees to find coverage on their own. Consequently, many employed individuals and families are now facing the same challenge small business owners have been facing for years-finding affordable insurance.
Canopy Tanning Bed - A Cheaper and Portable Alternative.
With the popularity of tanning beds on the rise, it's no wonder a more portable "canopy" type has entered the market to appease an even larger consumer base. These lightweight, near portable canopy-like tanning beds are perfect for those who need to save on space and money. They operate using a gas shock system that virtually hovers over the user. The disadvantage of course, is that the user must turn over when he/she wants to hit a different spot on the body. However, many consumers still believe that the advantages far outweigh this slight disadvantage. In fact, some people actually prefer the more open and airy design of the canopy tanning bed. Traditional clamshell's can get the best of those who suffer from mild claustrophobia or heat ...
