Take, for instance, the Kitty Genovese and Barbara Kralik murder trials, which are both covered in "Twisted Confessions" by Charles E. Skoller. Both instances were particularly gruesome, and both had a bizarre twist. The most bizarre thing about the Genovese occurrence is that no one came to her aid, in spite of numerous neighbors hearing her screams for help. With the Kralik case, two people confessed to the murder, which sort of makes it difficult to prosecute either one separately. ]]> Sun, 07 Dec 2008 09:46:51 -0600 http://www.benwoods.com/book-review-twisted-confessions-by-charles-e.-skoller Default admin account http://www.benwoods.com/people-and-electronics-dont-always-go-together a recent study by the Pew Internet & American Life Project, 15 percent of individuals never bothered repairing a piece of technology that broke within the past year. ]]> Fri, 28 Nov 2008 18:59:09 -0600 http://www.benwoods.com/people-and-electronics-dont-always-go-together Default admin account http://www.benwoods.com/book-review-subway-by-horace-mungin Subway - After the Irish" by Horace Mungin.

There had been times in the past when I was thinking about going to one, but I could never fit it into my schedule. Luckily, I think I picked a pretty decent one to attend. First, it happened to be at Towson University, where I attend grad school. Second, there was a pretty good crowd of people there, all of whom seemed like qualified members of the writing profession. Finally, I had a chance to talk to some pretty cool people, including Gregg Wilhelm from the CityLit Project, travel writer L. Peat O'Neil, literary agent Shannon O'Neill and Mohamed Mughal, the author of "Resolution 786." I will admit, though, that a fair amount of the information I heard was stuff I already knew. But the writing business is a lot about who you know, and not necessarily just what you know. ]]> Mon, 10 Nov 2008 15:15:46 -0600 http://www.benwoods.com/fun-times-at-the-baltimore-writers-conference Default admin account http://www.benwoods.com/obama-wallpaper Obama collage of the papers as a tribute to our next president.

I haven't had a chance to change all of my marketing material yet because, well, there's only so much time in the day, right? After thinking about it and discussing with others, "Polos to Ties" worked great for the local audience, but from a book sales standpoint, a random person might not notice the fashion connection. ]]> Sun, 26 Oct 2008 16:12:36 -0500 http://www.benwoods.com/why-the-book-name-change Default admin account http://www.benwoods.com/sunflowers-up-close-and-personal This is the coolest thing I've seen in awhile! ]]> Thu, 23 Oct 2008 17:31:56 -0500 http://www.benwoods.com/sunflowers-up-close-and-personal Default admin account http://www.benwoods.com/create-your-own-error-messages Tue, 14 Oct 2008 21:09:20 -0500 http://www.benwoods.com/create-your-own-error-messages Default admin account http://www.benwoods.com/comcast-filtering-some-domains Mon, 13 Oct 2008 09:00:17 -0500 http://www.benwoods.com/comcast-filtering-some-domains Default admin account http://www.benwoods.com/partying-online-since-1999 Journal Review.

For instance, there's glue. Try using that stuff that holds elephants from a trapeze by their teeth. If you accidentally glue the elephant's ear to the swing, the immobile animal will be stuck forever. ]]> Fri, 10 Oct 2008 22:07:45 -0500 http://www.benwoods.com/brush-but-not-too-hard Default admin account
