Joyce M. Johnson -AUTHOR-Actor
Joyce M. Johnson was born in Jamaica West Indies where she spent her formative years and has lived in Canada for over 50 years where she attended high school and college. After graduating from college, her long successful career began at Dover Elevator where she worked in main frame computer as Operation and Programmer. Joyce studied creative writing at Seneca College, Toronto, Canada.
The years of living in Canada have awakened Joyce’s consciousness. She been led by inner and outward influences to engage in social dialoguing at the ‘community level’ as to write about and share her wealth of experiences developed in Canada. Shaped in part by her Jamaican past. Her first novel was called, In ‘Search Of Happiness’. The name has been change to ‘Henrietha’, It is sequel”, which is now completed after writing for many years. Also I have completed another sequel novel called, “Waiting For The World To Change”. Joyce says. “This is an exciting beginning to my writing career, because I do feel this is where my calling lies. “Henrietha – and Waiting For the Word was published but decided to pulled it and do some more editing on the novels.
Synopsis
These books are focused on the sexual abuse of young girls in the African American community and the lack of appropriate father figures. Henrietha and Joanna, who is a journalist, are old friends who meet up multiple times while Henrietha tells stories of her own childhood and adulthood victories and abuses, Henrietha recalls not just her own sufferings but also those of her child, Melinda-Sue and granddaughter Ruth. After Ruth’s biological father lands in jail, Melinda-Sue finds herself getting married to Jason, who then sexually abuses Ruth from the tender age of five years old, for seven years. Ruthie comes to live with her grandmother after being abused sexually by both her biological father and her stepfather who then kicked her out of the house. Henrietha and Joanna share their fair shares of challenges in life as they continue to catch up with each other after some time apart.
The stories shared in the book covered a wide range of themes. Those themes included gender, power, race, religion, love, guilt, stigma, and class. You can expect to imagine vivid pictures of the events they recalled; almost like you were there with them. Although their stories were engulfed in sadness, they added a twist of humor occasionally to lighten up the reader from the darkness of the tales.
Book BLURB
Ruthie often traveled on the subway with her best friend Jem from the church where they attend often. She told me that the pastor had brainwashed her. When the abused came to light to her pastor, he called her stepfather and setup a counsel session for him but not for Ruthie.
Often times, Ruthie traveled on the subway with her friend Jem, and they discussed their abuses as Jem was abused also. They share many interests in life. Ruthie said thoughts of jumping across the train tracks often crossed her mind. Jem talked her down at times. One night, she came home and had me cornered in my bedroom with her eyes blazing with fire as she sat me on the bed and yelled at me, “Why didn’t you come over to my house and save me from the abuse? I was waiting for someone to save me. I can still smell the scent of Jason on me. Night after night and Sunday after Sunday, when he came home from church, he had me as his sex slave. Grandma you said you felt in your mind something was not right, so why didn’t you come and kick the door down and find out what was going on?”
“But, my dear, I did call the Children’s Aid. I told them what you said, that you were sleeping in the closet at one time, and they came and visited. They called me and told me all was good in the home. There was nothing else I could have done.”
She left that night with her friend, and three days later, I heard from her that she is in British Colombia. They took the bus. She said if she hadn’t left the province, she would have jumped the subway track. As you know, Joanna, there is a finished rooftop on my building. Many times, whenever Ruthie comes home, she would go to the rooftop even before she goes to bed. She said she finds peace and comfort there. She felt like God was up there waiting to talk and comfort her.
Is domestic work really for black women? It seems that way. Whenever some white person or others meet you and talk about work, it seems they are waiting for you to say that this is the job you are doing.

SHAUN ELI-WWW.BRAINCHAMPAGNE.COM-THE IVY LEAGUE OF COMEDY

Stand-up comedian Shaun Eli has rightfully been called one of America’s smartest comics. Whether it’s a story about dining with a vegetarian or successfully fighting a parking ticket, master storyteller Shaun Eli shows you that there’s hilarity in the ordinary if you approach life with a comedic warp. Job interviews? Serving on a NYC criminal jury? How about the Ten Commandments? For just about anything he’s experienced Shaun has a hilarious story at the ready.
With a sense of humor that’s both cheerful and universal Shaun has headlined shows on five continents. His jokes have been quoted everywhere from the New York Post to Readers Digest to Healthcare Finance News. In both Reform Judaism magazine and the Christian Science Monitor, where he was the subject of the cover story. He’s been featured on CareerBuilder.com and CNN, in local papers like the Scarsdale Inquirer and the Asbury Park Press and in the college papers the Yale Daily News and the Daily Pennsylvanian. Even in The Journal of Irreproducible Results, a scientific humor magazine. Yes, there is one. And his group The Ivy League of Comedysm was the subject of a front-page story in the Philadelphia Inquirer.
More than just smart, funny and clever, Shaun is determined to express his opinion passionately, not surprising for someone who wrote his first satirical essay at age ten. When profiled in Fortune magazine “Tonight Show” host Jay Leno quoted one of Shaun’s jokes, citing it as an example of the type of “smart comedy” he’s happy to include in his opening monologue. Jay and other late-night hosts used Shaun’s topical material in their monologues for almost two decades.
Outside the world of comedy Shaun was a world-class athlete in two obscure sports (rowing and dragon-boat racing), worked as a lifeguard instructor and is an instrument-rated pilot. He is also an award-winning economic forecaster who once sold his car to a hitchhiker.
Shaun is a graduate of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. You can watch his videos and read some of his writings, including satirical political essays and hundreds of jokes he’s written for late-night television, on his web site BrainChampagne.com where his slogan “Brain Champagne: Clever Comedy for Smart Mindssm” rings true.
GHOSTMAN HORROR ALIVE BY MARK ANTONY RAINES
Wolf's howl;Vampire bat wings flutter silently in the wind ;the ghostman rises from his slumber of the dead to bring you a tale of being buried alive.
Being afraid of being buried alive is known as Taphophobia. Being buried alive is the fear of being placed in a grave while still alive as a result of being incorrectly pronounced dead. I awake to find myself confined in an oblong box, it is as dark as a plutonium sky. My breathing is becoming shallower. I become stressed out, I remember from my training as a doctor that an average resting adult, their body will convert oxygen at a rate of about 550 L per day, or 23 L an hour. That means that I have in the coffin seven hours to make a move. Deep down in my subconscious, I realised after all my screaming and panicking that my carbon dioxide is replacing the last dregs of my life bringing oxygen, I begin to experience blackouts, I slip into a coma. My heart stops beating, I am dead. My murderer at first thought about tossing me into an empty grave but thought it was not a gruesome enough death.My murderer thought it be better to bury me alive , it was simple to do by spiking my drink to knock me out then place my body in the back seat of the car and drive to a remote location.My murderer makes sure to bury me bout 2,775 L of soil on top of you — a sweet 3697 lbs of dirt.Which while not breaking my bones.Then the murderer imagines the weight of the dirt will slowly constrict the my chest, making it harder to breathe. And things start to go fuzzy — oxygen is in short supply — the mouth and nostrils will fill with soil, making breathing the air available between particulates impossible,I will be dead.
Before I die i wonder who will remember me and will i end up in Heaven or Hell.
The ghostman crackle s and lays back down in his coffin and as the lid slowly closes he turns and says.

The police sergeant asked her to sit down and wait and what seemed to take ages ;two detectives then take her to a room marked witness statement room in which were three chairs and a table and on the table and recording device.
Mary Jane stares into space and for a brief moment does not remember how she was now seated in front of the police station interview room. Mary Jane just knows she has something very important to do before she can tell her tale she has to make them believe her. The detective opens the door to the interview room, inside are three chairs a table and a recording device and a fellow police officer holding a pen and pad. The interview starts."Please state your name and the reasons why we are being interviewed by us "My name is Mary Jane I like to report my murder committed on me by my mother today at 1 pm in her house in Boston, Massachusetts '.The detective and the police officer both look at Mary Jane with a sense of on their faces.

GHOSTMAN HORROR DOGNAPPED BY MARK ANTONY RAINES
Wolf's howl;Vampire bat wings flutter silently in the wind ;the ghostman rises from his slumber of the dead to bring you a tale of what happens if you pick the wrong subject in tonight s tale Dognapped.
I was walking along besides my walker on my lead:I enjoyed this walk as it brought a array of various smells of the neighbourhood.
Suddenly my dog walker was jumped upon by a couple of rough looking brutes whom one wrapped the lead around my mouth so I was unable to protect myself and I bundled into the back of a van with others like me ;we were unable to see put as the windows were as black as a plutonium night.
The journey was long and bumpy and my fellow canine friends were getting restless and fearful.
The van stopped and the brutes put as all in a dank dark cellar chained to the wall and our mouths muzzled.
The brutes walked up the winding creaky staircase bragged about the riches both would gain from the ransom s to the worried owners.
I sat in the cellar waiting for the call from my master of the night to exact my revenge on my own part and my family.
The full moon rises it's beams glitter through the creaks of the covered cellar window s.
My body begin s to shudder I let out a unheard almighty howl the transformation had began; my four legs began to become hum limbs; my head loses its can nine features and become so more human.
I was now stood upright and with supernatural strength I broke my chains and that of my family.
I send thought s into my canine friends who followed me up the creaky stairs each crawling making as less noise as possible.
The two brutes were deep in the sleep sent by the Sandman; I asked my friend said to surround thier beds .
I spoke "Excuse me Gentlemen but going to have to inform you that tonight is your unlucky night as I have yet again become a man and my family are ready to exact thier revenge on you "
With this the dogs all leaped on the two brutes and ripped and gnarled at thier screaming souls and when all was left were bones :No blood as this was all lapped up.
The man who was a dog opens the front door and releases his friend s back to be with thier beloved owners.
The man saw that the dawn of a new day was to begin time to turn back to a dog and to roam free until next time.
The ghostman crackle s and lays back down in his coffin and as the lid slowly closes he turns and says.
