'Beacon Hill: The Series' S2 Coming Soon... At Last

The long awaited news about Beacon Hill: The Series'  Season 2; One Life To Live alumnus Hilary B. Smith will be joining the cast as Isabel Miller ; an estranged old friend of Claire's played by Days of our Lives and Guiding Light alumnus, Crystal Chappell.  Grrr... shame on you DAYS' the powers that be for chasing C.C out of the soap; I really, really miss her as Dr. Carly Manning.

It turns out Isabel is the  the mysterious visitor at the door, hence Claire's stunned reaction.  Smith is also a long standing cast member of the Emmy Award soap opera web series; Venice:The Series- which stars Crystal Chappell, who also co-created and co-produced it. And apparently, Isabel is back in Beacon Hill with a hidden agenda. Watch out viewers.

We've been waiting for that reveal for a very long time now, AND the unveiling of Season 2. And according to Beacon Hill's Twitter handle, another Emmy Award actor will be joing the cast and is yet to be unveiled. All I know is, I hope I get lucky enough to watch Season 2 and have our  nagging questions answered!


FYI, the show is NOT free online: hence check out what you have to pay if you want to watch Season 1. However, viewers can now watch S1 episodes on Vimeo,for a  limited time only of course.

Also watch this video about the cast and how you can help make Season 2 a reality.

ANOTHER TALE TOLD! : 'The Wishing Well and Other Stories'

I'm not exactly what you call the patient type but it's definitely true about good things coming to those who wait. And it has been definitely a long wait for me. 

Now I can spread the good news, my new book- The Wishing Well & other stories-  my third after 2006's The Cunning Tortoise & other Stories and The Medicine Girl & other stories- is at last  in print, published by Literamed Publications, Nigeria. 

Each tale is aimed at entertaining my young readers and - I hope- educate them. The best thing about writing for kids is knowing that you are going out of your way to make reading fun for them. The more I look at this current achievement, the better I feel about my chosen path, Children's Literature. Of course, I  still hope to expand my horizons, but now I've realised that writing for children is something I want to do for a very long time, by God's Grace.

REFLECTING ON CHESTER BENNINGTON'S DEATH

After reading up on Chester Bennington after hearing about his death, I am still trying to understand the level of pain he must have being bottling that made him take such a sad step. It's always a tragic waste- taking one's own life. And Some people are strangely unsympathetic about suicide, while others wonder how on earth they could have missed the signs when their loved ones commit suicide.
Death is inevitable-no exceptions- and no one wants to die, yet those who feel there is no way out simply want the pain to stop and find some level of peace.
Some of us have such thoughts now and then- the ugliness of Clinical Depression.  But we must remember who and what we still have, have faith in God and do all we can to rise about the ashes.

You will be missed, Chester Bennington!

Feeling so alone, others not seeing,  

We are stung by words and actions,

Some numb, bottle or ignore the pain,   

Or channel it towards positivity,

Free yourself of the past and never look back,

However some scars are too close to the bone

And the pain is opened afresh,

Then you welcome the darkness,

Allowing it consume you,

Drowning in despair and agony,

But look to the light, it’s right there!

Don’t let the devil win!

Be brave and strive to forge ahead

Let the caring and sincere in,

Have faith in the One Being,

You are someone,

YOU are important

YOU MATTER!

THE BIG BANG THEORY 

CARBO FAN FICTION-Déjà Vu CHAPTER 23

Bo stayed by the window, waiting for Clarice to come in. It’s been almost two hours since he left her at the Ball Court, at her request. What he had to tell her had made her break down in tears and it had taken ages for him to console her. She was probably strolling around, trying to recover from what she learned about herself.

CARBO FAN FICTION-Déjà Vu CHAPTER 22

Chapter 22

Days later, Clarice had another nightmare, this time it was more vivid.

She was running along the deck of a boat. Or rather limping, she was dragging her right leg. Her face was covered with bruises; blood was flowing from her left temple. The menace was gaining on her; she could feel his cold fury; his fists... his shouts.  Next thing she knew she was sinking deep in water...
