“Hope My pessimistic friend says that I am a joke That I am too optimistic because I am called Hope. We were once ‘one’ before but he made a choice one day To remove me from his life, now he lives in a hope-less way. He blames me for the pain and misery he suffers from all the time. I have tried to tell him to change because his choices are his, not mine. You see I am what is considered a good thing I have lost count of the many joys and anticipated blessings I bring. There are so many people that look forward to a brighter day So I am constantly called upon to show them the way. I work hand in hand with a wonderful loyal dedicated friend His name is Faith and he is strong, resilient and does not bend. All good things come in threes so I am told That probably explains why we have a third partner who is so glorious and bold. He is the greatest of the three of us, full of passion and so strong There is nothing He cannot do, and when you repent He forgives your every wrong. His name is Love and He is truly the Great of great Our mission: I, Hope, have Faith and with Love, we operate.” The poem Hope is taken from the novel ‘Despite All Odds: A Dream Fulfilled Part I’ published by GLL Publishing Ebooks from GLL Publishing available at Amazon, Smashwords etc – Books also available via www.gllpublishing.com Despite all odds: A Dream Fulfilled Part 1...

A number of the books published by GLL Publishing deal with topics some might find sensitive. ‘Blood Borne Connections’ is a fictional thriller that tackles teenage sex trafficking. ‘U Murder U (Suicide)’ has been voted a must read and is about preventing suicide. We are in the fourth Month of 2018 and already there have been so many deaths of young people by knife crimes. It is becoming a daily occurrence now to see a headline of another life loss and another family destroyed. We are in the fourth Month of 2018 and there have been over 400 knife attacks and over 40 deaths – when will this stop? When things are tolerated they don’t change – THINGS CAN ONLY CHANGE WHEN THEY ARE NO LONGER TOLERATED!!! We say Black Lives Matter but what happens when Black youths are killing each other – DON’T THEY VALUE THEIR OWN LIVES? As a Community, Society, Nation, what are we not teaching young people? Where are we going wrong? How can one young person pick up a knife and stab another with the intention of ending a life we say matters? Is it the Devil? Is he controlling the minds of these young people? Is it the Government? Have they taken away all the community clubs and other places that young people used to hang out in to keep their minds occupied? Or is it a combination of both? They say ‘The idle mind is a playground for the Devil’ Some people sit back and act like none of this affects them or theirs and blame families, schools and peer pressure. In their ignorance,...

Note from Author Most people, like me, will know someone who committed suicide or know someone who knows someone. When I finished my MSc in Medical Microbiology at University, I got a job in a renowned London hospital’s Microbiology Laboratory, and it was there that I met him – my work mentor. He wasn’t that tall, was balding, of slight built and told me once that he bought some of his trousers in the children’s section of clothing shops. He took me under his wing and taught me the difference between studying Medical Microbiology and working in a laboratory and how to put my theory know-how, into practice. He used to wind me up by calling me ‘Gladiola’ instead of Gladys – he told me it was the name of a beautiful flower, and I believed him (we didn’t have the internet back then for me to check if it was true or not). I worked with him for nearly seven years; two of those years were spent on maternity leave having my children. When I went back to work each time he brought me up to speed and made sure that I was okay with all the new methods. The things I remember most are his willingness to always help me when I needed help at work, and how when we had a slight misunderstanding I would frown at him, he would frown in return, we’d smile, and things would go back to normal. Once, I found and identified a rare parasite in a patient’s sample and he confirmed what it was then got everyone’s...

CHAPTER 1 “Night may conceal many things but on this night of February the 3rd 1860 it cannot conceal the evil that hangs insidiously in the air. Nor can it conceal the pungent smell of hate and ignorance that flow freely, assaulting the nostrils of the seven people hiding in the cold, damp, dark cave. ‘In here! Look in here!’ Evil longs to cry out, knowing that to do so will lead to one of its many manifestations—death! The people in the cave stay quiet, though terrified, they pray silently that the Night-riders will not discover them. Their prayers, though quiescent, are powerful and make their way up to Heaven, where they lay expectantly at the Feet of God. The resonant sound of the hooves of horses gets louder and louder as the Night-riders, brandishing lit torches, move nearer and nearer, in pursuit of their scent-aroused dogs. The Night-riders stop a short distance away from the entrance of the cave; their dogs bark ferociously at the feet of their horses. Up and down and up and down the dogs jump, crazed, almost as if they dance to the tune of the drums that evil beats. Boom boom-boom! Boom boom-boom! Boom boom-boom! Each beat taunting them, drawing them nearer and nearer to the entrance of the cave.” Silence ensued. Then suddenly, the male voice continued with the story. “‘You think dey in there?’ Wilson, one of the Night-riders asks, as he peers into the cave from a safe distance. ‘Something sure spooked dem dogs,’ the head rider replies as they all dismount, ‘Only two of dem dogs are mine. The rest are mostly your crazy dogs Wilson, you go check,’ he orders...
