Take Courage, Do it Afraid

The Allergic Boy Versus the Left-Handed Girl

 

The Allergic Boy Versus 

the Left-Handed Girl: 

A Novel

The new novel from the author of book that is the basis for the new Tony Hale movies”Eat Wheaties!”

The Allergic Boy Versus the Left-Handed Girl is the story of Jimmy Nail.

When Jimmy Nail finally gets around to reading the phenomenally popular novel The Left-Handed Girl, written by the iconic P.J. Darbin, he recognizes it immediately. It’s his own story, The Allergic Boy, that Jimmy had given to Darbin to read when they were both eager young college students. That was before Jimmy dropped out of school. Before Jimmy joined the Army. Before Jimmy suffered a severe head injury that leaves him with screaming headaches and occasional confusion.

But it’s his story. He knows it’s his, even if no one will believe him. Not his wife. Not Darbin’s big-city publisher. Not Darbin’s team of lawyers. And not the mean-spirited judge who’s assigned to hear Jimmy’s lawsuit.

How can Jimmy prove that he’s the true author of the hit novel and not just a greedy and addled war veteran with a head injury and a frivolous claim?

When his dusty old notebooks and his own memory convince no one, Jimmy knows that his only hope is to find the red-haired girl he’d been mad about as a teenager, the enigmatic Poppy Fowler.

Or Poppy Fahrenberg.

Or Poppy Fahrenheit.

Whatever her surname, she is Jimmy Nail’s one and only hope.

His one and only hope for love.

His one and only hope to establish his sanity.

And his one and only hope to get the credit he deserves. The money, too. He can’t forget the money.

But did Poppy even exist, or was she just the creation of Jimmy’s sad and troubled mind?

Jimmy has lost everything. He’s lost his wife and his daughter. He’s lost his parents. He’s lost his savings. What he hasn’t lost is his love for a red-haired girl who may have been the basis for a novel that has made someone else world-famous and awfully rich.

Oh, and Poppy was left-handed.

In this unique and inventive novel, Michael Kun explores the nature of truth, the imperfection of memory, and the very idea of love. As Jimmy Nail learns that he must love whom he loves, regardless of appearance and even gender, Kun infuses Jimmy’s quest with humor and emotional depth.

Forgotten

In Moktlain, A black-stoned sword is bestowed only on those marked for death.

After waking up stabbed and with no memory of who he is, Claeg's only clue to his identity is the sword – set with a black stone – that's found with him when he's pulled from a drifting, bloody boat. Even Claeg is just a name the healer gives him. All he does know is that if he wants to live, the blade has to stay secret.

That was months ago, and Claeg's isn’t any closer to finding himself. Then, Lord Gallus Kurok, head of one of the wealthiest families in Dracul, comes to Claeg with a deal: pose as his kin and fight for his family's honor, and he'll help Claeg find what's lost.

Claeg jumps at the opportunity, ignoring the war brewing in Moktlain. It isn’t long until Claeg is thrown onto the front, sentenced to service for a crime he didn’t commit, but Claeg isn’t the only innocent in his chain-gang. Ida, sword just as sharp and even faster than Claeg's, walks beside him, and soon the two start walking closer than just comrades.

When given the chance to learn about the man who earned the black-stoned sword, Claeg must decide what, and who, he's willing to sacrifice to gain the information. The answers hide deadly secrets of their own, and lurk closer than Claeg thinks, waiting to be unsheathed.

The Road To COVID-30: 

Self-Help Satire For The Soul

Do you remember the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic? Our lives halted (for only 1 week in Texas) and the prolonged state of stasis left us withering to the bitter winds of constant change which violently swirled around us.

From the humble perspective of Vancouver, British Columbia Canada, The Road To COVID-30 seeks to smash through the barrier that holds you back from your future: Yourself. For you see, you must shift with the paradigm or else be left abandoned, alone, to simply turn to dust. Self-preservation and reclamation are interchangeable, and with newfound grace, now apply to your soul as well as your workplace environment.

COVID-19 Tips Include:

• When to blame the children.
• How to shift the blame to the United States.
• How to make $600 last 4 years.

*Bonus* Local Vancouver Guide Tips:

• How to choose the best government monopoly car insurance crown corporation for you!
• How to properly time when the Vancouver Park Board emerges from the ocean (based on lunar cycles) so you can update them on various local safety concerns (cracked slides, incidents of torture, etc.).

Family Dynamic Tips Include:

• Divorce.

Inspired by self-help books which are generally not applicable during a global pandemic (especially hot yoga), and the unique moment when first-world countries started comparing themselves with Iraq, this book is meant to unravel the mysteries of the reality presented to you.
