Long and Winding Road is a collection of eleven short stories. Nine of the stories are prose; one is a play, and another is a narrative poem; but all eleven are really stories, just in different genres. The value of a collection of short stories is that you can read just one story at a sitting (or two sittings for the longer stories), rest from it, and then dip in for another treat next reading session. Settings are primarily Australian, though one story is set in a fictitious ancient kingdom and one in northern Mexico and parts of USA. The short play is set in a nursing home, of all places. Readers will meet a range of interesting characters: Miss Magnolia (who has a secret!), Viv Black (who uncovers a secret), the trans-gender Al = Mara, the young loom-girl Therese who becomes Queen, the boy-wonder Agave (who was born without vocal cords! but is anything but mute), Mohair Mary, the talented and prescient Aboriginal woman Doreen, teen Essie/Esmerelda who discovers gold as she discovers her Self, the former sex-worker Penelope in a nursing home, Master Nathaniel who dies by guillotine (!), and dozens more. Some stories border on the bawdy (but nothing X-rated), some deal with tragedy and misadventure, some with romance and strong personal bonds. It’s like life. We trudge along life’s path – the winding road – dragging life’s burdens behind in the dust, not knowing what lies around the next bend. But always there are more stories to tell.

A Journey through Seven Decades of Radio and Tv David Hamilton’s ‘Long and Winding Road’ has taken him from the remote farm in Sussex where he grew up, dreaming of the bright lights, to working all over the UK and in America in a broadcasting career that has lasted for seven decades, eventually bringing him back after over fifty years to the same farm where he started, from which he would broadcast on national radio in his mid-eighties. This road took David to Germany where, during his National Service in the RAF, he became one of the first DJs to play rock ’n’ roll. Four years later, he did one of the first TV interviews with a new group called The Beatles. Since then he has presented thousands of radio shows and on television has hosted Top of the Pops, beauty contests, sports and game shows and appeared alongside top comedians. In this amazingly frank memoir, David tells what it was like working with such comedy greats as Ken Dodd, Benny Hill and Tommy Cooper; of the two serious car crashes he had in his twenties; of how he rode in a speedway race at Wembley Stadium; about his time as a football club director and how he played in the England team that won the World Cup in 1966. David writes of the beautiful women he has loved. His life, his loves, his laughs. It’s all here, from one of Britain’s most enduring broadcasters.

From the Forward, Life can be viewed as a rat race full of drudgery and reactive responses -- or instead -- a wondrous journey, full of twists, turns and experiences which awaken our senses and spirituality in new ways. In The Wonder of It All, William Judge shares the inspirations of his life experiences and profound reflections that have shaped his view of the world around him. His incredibly beautiful and descriptive moments of joy and awakening make one stop and pause to capture and share the moment. This is a collection of stories that will make you think and look at every aspect of your life differently, about embracing the joys and wonders of life, and the importance of achieving spiritual peace and the fullness of a life well lived. -Linda Gardner Crandall

Erotic Romance. It’s the 1950’s. College freshman Laura Dornay and Airman Tony Giannelli, who is stationed at the Air Force base in upstate New York, meet on a blind date and fall deeply in love. However, Laura is haunted by sad memories of her and cannot make a commitment. Despite her love for Tony, she has a need for male attention, which creates ongoing conflict with Tony when she dates other men. Her behavior, especially after a few drinks, makes Tony wonder if she can be trusted. Yet their physical need for each other increases the longer they are together. After Tony is discharged from the service, he leaves to attend a school downstate. One weekend, he returns to surprise Laura only to find her leaving his former roommate’s car, drunk, with her blouse open, and her breasts exposed. It’s an immediate end to the relationship with Tony telling Laura that his love for her is never enough. She always needs more. During her remaining time in college, Laura meets another airman, Bob Sheffington, and eventually he asks her to marry him. However, with troubling evidence of Bob’s drinking habits and his desire for a military career, Laura has her doubts about their marrying. One wintry night, on their way to Laura’s dorm after dancing and drinking, Bob is blinded by heavy snowfall and a truck driver’s high beams, resulting in a crash that pushes the car off the road and into a tree. Laura winds up hospitalized in a coma. When Tony hears of Laura’s injury, he rushes to her bedside, where he remains until she regains consciousness. Laura finds Tony with his head against her bed and his hand holding hers. Only then does she realize that her feelings for Tony are more than for any other man. And now, for them both, a moment of decision has arrived
