In David Joseph’s fourth collection of fiction, I Wanted To Be A Bluesman, he explores human relationships through the Delta-dipped lens of the blues. Each of the twelve stories in this collection are carefully intertwined with the blues—from Mississippi to Chicago and places in between. Along the way, the bricklayer, priest, car thief, cook, and others are connected through the common thread of the blues. Whether traveling by car towards Clarksdale in searing summer heat or on a train bound for the north, the blues cross borders and play on. And yet, these aren’t so much stories about the blues as they are stories about regular people who are connected to the music through the manner in which the blues have spoken to them and shaped their lives. The music provides the backdrop for their dreams, desires, memories, decisions, uncertainty, secrets, and, in some cases, their chance at redemption. Written in the clear, plainspoken prose that has become his signature style, the stories in this collection emanate coolness amidst hardship, acceptance in the wake of regret, understanding in the presence of difference, and humility in a world starving for it—not so different from the blues themselves. Editorial Reviews INDIES TODAY David Joseph's storytelling is dazzling as ever in his tribute to blues music, I Wanted To Be A Bluesman. With a comfortable pace and highly relatable characters, the tales ring with a truthfulness that makes you marvel at how fiction can so vividly capture reality. With a narrative voice as soulful as the music he adores, David Joseph's I Wanted To Be A Bluesman is a life-affirming collection that hits all the right notes. Each story in this anthology honors the transformative power of music, especially the blues, and its profound influence on the human spirit. Joseph's prose is lyrical and vibrant, capturing the essence of a past era with a contemporary sensibility. I Wanted to Be a Bluesman is a moving and beautifully written collection that captures the soul of blues music and its enduring impact. Composed with the gritty edge of Deep South sorrow, I Wanted to Be a Bluesman by David Joseph is a stirring reflection on how music permeates every corner of our lives. Brought to life with an unflinching style of prose that leaves no emotion untapped, and an inventive use of language. These tales are comprised of venerative recollections about seminal music and musicians, making the stories a poignant, long-form love note to an era that still echoes today.

A love letter to humanity’s awakening. Human iI: Divine Consciousness Will Awaken is a deeply intentional offering that merges quantum wisdom, poetic love, and abstract art to help readers remember their true identity — the Divine “I” within. Authored by husband-and-wife duo Tre, this powerful work unfolds as both map and melody, revealing the harmony between the psychological, spiritual, and physical dimensions of being. Rooted in the balance of the Divine Masculine and Feminine, it gently guides readers from the ‘little i’ of ego into alignment with the Source — our shared Origin. Through accessible insights and soul-stirring poetry, readers are introduced to sacred concepts like Ibreath, ITAME, and Ancestral You’s, learning how to navigate life with clarity, compassion, and awakened presence. This book is not meant to be understood — it is meant to be felt, experienced, and lived. Born of sacred partnership and lived wisdom, it carries the voice of Milton and Tracy Ann Harris — visionaries, healers, and co-founders of The Unfolding Room. Together, they remind the world: Ready to remember who you truly are? Click here and get your copy of Human iI: Divine Consciousness Will Awaken — Book I by TRE, now available on Amazon.

This work is dedicated to the humans that are tired of being used as slaves. The Roman Empire did not fall. They just changed the name to the Roman Church. This text contains material that you cannot unread. Your thinking process will be permanently altered. Consider yourself warned. This text will release you from the Matrix and there is no way to get back inside. This is your final warning - DO NOT READ THIS BOOK! In 1946, a massive cache of ancient manuscripts were found in caves near the dead sea. These became known as the “Dead Sea Scrolls”. I have studied various forms of this material for the past 15 years. I have examined historical documents, religious texts as well as countless historical facts. These texts have led me to a number of obvious realizations. There are texts known as forbidden knowledge in most cultures. Most have been burned. If you explore them, you will find that they all lead to extraterrestrial origins. Recent research has revealed that humans are composed of between 1% and 4% of the Neanderthal’s DNA. The part that was not mentioned was that there are humans with 0% Neanderthal DNA in them. This is the Roman race. (The other 96%) These “pureblood” humanoids are the off-worlders who came to Earth and created earthling humans through genetic manipulation. The Romans mixed their DNA with Neanderthals to create a race of workers to satisfy their labor needs. In anthropological circles, they would be called “the missing link”. You can find them in our historical records as “Ancient Romans and Greeks”. They appeared out of nowhere, enacted biblical scale changes to humanity, and then disappeared as mysteriously as they came. Thoughtfully and critically consider the facts, they actually make far more logical sense than the stories you have been indoctrinated to believe. History is written and rewritten by the victor. The Romans have erased and revised history to suit their agenda. They continue this practice even today as books and monuments are removed. Free discourse is censored and self anointed ultra biased fact checkers have appeared on the scene to employ psychological warfare upon the masses. Political foes are imprisoned. The Inclusive Bible is the latest Bible translation where the writers have removed male pronouns and sexism. Facts should remain facts and not subject to subverting by whoever is in power at the time. A fact never changes. Religion and history are not subjects to be modified and rewritten at the whims of a new leader. The ancient cuneiform tablets have clearly detailed that an extraterrestrial lifeform came to Earth and genetically modified the Neanderthals to produce the human race. They made themselves known to us as Gods. Since they were our creators, it is a fair assertion. (Our Father who art in heaven. God created man in his own image - sound familiar?) Ancient Rome is EXACTLY what it looks like when a highly advanced space-faring race frontiers a new planet. The Roman race brought all of the various disciplines of a complex civilization with them. They did not invent anything (except humans). Customer reviews "Captivating read. It will challenge ideas you may not even realize that you’ve tacitly accepted." Amazon.com "Very Thought Provoking. Since smart and curious minds are always open to new ways of thinking, why not think through the Moose way..." Amazon.com "You cannot un-read this book. Earth's deepest secrets are revealed. You will not be able to get back inside the Matrix and you might wish you could." Amazon.com

There was a place once where man, the perfect creation, lived and thrived as a near perfect creature. Blessed by the ‘gods’ with advanced knowledge of science, engineering, astronomy, mathematics and medicine, this early culture lived an idyllic life on a remote volcanic island in the eastern Atlantic. There they enjoyed centuries long lives and were protected by their isolation from pestilence and were nourished by food raised on rich volcanic soil. These Atlanteans became great seafaring explorers who shared their gifts of knowledge with more primitive cultures, advancing societies that would evolve into the great centers of knowledge, philosophy and science that would become Egypt, Rome, Persia, Greece and China. Legend has it that the island they called Atlantis was destroyed in a sudden cataclysmic volcanic explosion that totally exterminated all traces of that great culture. The truth be known, the eruption and explosion that wiped the island from history came slowly with seismic warnings and the people evacuated their leaders and knowledge on a great armada of ships which dispersed around the world to settle and mix with other cultures, creating advanced healthier societies. One group traveled West to a previously unexplored continent that one day would be called North America. There for hundreds of years they inbred with native tribes of hunter gatherers which then evolved into the great American Indian tribes. Modern researchers, aware of Biblical stories about patriarchal longevity that spanned multiple centuries to millennia, began researching modern pockets of extreme centurion longevity, seek a possible genetic reason, a longevity gene to create a super human. One group of Chinese scientists begin to pursue that knowledge with malevolent, evil intent. The accidental discovery of a ten thousand year old grave with fossilized human remains, a partial stone tablet with indecipherable writing, and a heavy gold and emerald inscribed ring with an ancient message on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation in Montana, sets in motion events that will uncover the powerful secrets of The Atlantis Gene. Customer reviews "Pierce Roberts Does It Again! The reader will literally be sitting on the edge of his/her seat during the last fifty pages of The Atlantis Gene. When I completed the book, I found myself wanting it to continue." Amazon.com "I think The Atlantic Gene will be the script for a movie someday." Amazon.com "The Atlantis Gene is an intriguing story with a great story line. It is an easy read that will keep you locked in for the entire time you read it. I am certain that this story will someday be made into a movie. Highly recommended!" Amazon.com The Atlantis Gene is Available in Ebook and Paperback
