Anyone here familiar with Frank Peretti or Ted Dekker? I have been reading quite a few books from them lately, like "The Oath" by Frank Peretti and "House" which is a collaboration of the two authors and is being made into a movie. I highly recommend them. What do you think and who are your favorite authors?

In other words, who in real life was the character based upon? Where is the "flashback" scene, i.e., the recounting of the meeting of Jay Gatsby and Daisy Faye located in real life?

A very bright, previously unknown comet will appear & coincide with the time of great geological troubles. The USA willbe subject to serious natural diasters, particularly earthquakes & flooding & flatten the USA from end to end, cusing enormous conflict, despair, & misery. Our country will be bankruted attempting to deal with its disasters. Three other nations will aid its citizens to survive. The USA will be torn with civil strife & riotin as people migrate to areas that have water & can support crop growing. All this social upheaval & weakening of political structures will help the Antichrist come to power. THE DATES? Between 2006 and 2012. Is this scary or what!

I was wondering what you Yahoo Harry Potter fans thought about Remus Lupin from the Harry Potter series. Namely, who he should be paired with. The two most common pairings for him are Sirius and Tonks. As a slasher, I prefer Sirius/Remus, but what do you guys think? Answers other than Sirius and Tonks are fine, too! Those are just in the question line since they are the most popular.

Supposedly this is a true story, with the dead husband telling the story through a medium. It was about how he was trying to help his wife while she was in purgatory. She had commited suicide because she wanted to be with her husband. But because suicide is an answer to her problems, she had to stay in that "state" until her destined date to pass.

I know this Dr's first name was Jeff or Jeffery...I want to say it happened back in the 80's. He was asleep downstairs his house was kind of ransacked. And they accused him of the killings there was controversy about other people that might have done the killings. And a girl with a floppy hat. They were hippys that is what the Dr said. There was a girl that came forward and said she was at the house but she later died of a drug overdose I think. She never testified. He is in jail right now serving a life sentence I believe. And there is a book about it I just can't remember the name. Thanks to anyone that might know what it is.

I read it. What's the big deal? Wasn't as impressive as the critics made it out to be.

written. I don't even know what color the cover was since I listened to it on tape. It's a novel about a British banking family during the Victorian era. The two boys attended school with a wealth Latin American war lord's son who insinuated himself into the family after an accident (or not) happened at the school. The poor cousin eventually became a powerful member of the family and the heir became a no good wastrel. The mother was a manipulator who got the family involved in politics and used various ruthless tactics to eliminate the competition. She always started one one her conquests by taking someone on a tour of the house to see all the redecorating she had done. Ring any bells? I know I deserve a lot of verbal abuse for not having any more info than I do and I'll accept it humbly if anyone can tell me the name of this book and/or the author.

I'm an author-to-be and I need help to write better so I can be published. I'm writing a children's series and a fantasy series at the same time, and it's really getting hard to continue with my work. I get to a certain point and then I'm stuck.

Can anyone out there help me? I'm 21 years old and don't want to let the best years of my life pass me by.

Hello, i'm reading Natalie Cole's autobiography "Angels on my Shoulder" -- and she's talking about her drug addiction problems, acid, herion and something she calls "window pane." I can find nothing about this anywhere! This would have taken place in the 1970's.

Anyone know what she is refering to? The drug? or what she means. Is it slang for something (like "angel dust" for PCP). Thanks.
