Here are three readers comments on my novel, Under the Witch’s Mark that were posted in Good Reads. Yvonne Erwin.

Chapter 17 begins with a quote from Emille de Garardin, the French journalist – “A woman whom we truly love is a religion.” Here, the entire book, “Under the Witch’s Mark,” is defined.

cheap albion gold Sheridan, a young man living in North Dallas in 1972, meets a raven-haired beauty named Bronwynn and falls hopelessly in love with her. albion gold As Bronwynn reveals her dark world of witchcraft and Satanism, Sheridan is equally repulsed and fascinated. And afraid. He sees people in Brownwynn’s world with immense power, charisma and dark lies. buy albion silver There is nothing he can do to stop the horrific events that unfold as Brownwynn pulls him close to the edge of an endless black chasm – and then disappears. buy albion gold Forever. asics gel nimbus 14 mujer This book is a debut work by a new author. cheap albion silver It’s a quick, entertaining read, with the voice of a true storyteller. nike air max 2016 hombre Christine Rose: Under the Witch’s Mark is full of Celtic mythology and British history mixed with a phantasmagorical trip back to the 70s. A smart read, the story is full of references to fine literature and poetry, not to mention its very own soundtrack of vintage rock! You can make an awesome playlist from all the songs mentioned in the book and really get into the groove of it. It’s a magical love story with a hint of mystery that will leave you breathless and wanting more. Charles Hurst: Mr. Nike Air Max TN Femme Pittman is arriving as a campfire storyteller.

The prologue captures the reader instantly and drags him away to Bronwynn’s world of the satanic occult where she preys on unsuspecting Sheridan who has strayed from the flock and is now pursued by the black wolf. new balance store buenos aires A classic metaphor of a beautiful tree of knowledge, whose poisonous fruit threatens Sheridan’s eternal soul. A nostalgic walk through the 1970s and the reminiscence of Led Zeppelin’s whispered warning, the reader, will enjoy the temptation of recklessness in Bronwynn.

I wanted to share a new video of a song of mine called, “Pennies for Africa.”  I wrote this for DELTA KAPPA GAMMA and UNICEF.  The lyrics are below and you can listen to the song on YouTube

Pennies for Africa from SquarePlanIT, LLC on Vimeo.

“PENNIES FOR AFRICA” by Rickey Pittman

 VERSE ONE:

There’s a child in Africa,

Whose name you don’t know,

Living somewhere in Africa,

In a place you’ll never go.

VERSE TWO:

They need food and clean water,

Doctors and teachers too,

But that will never happen,

Without some help from you.

VERSE THREE: 

Little girls and orphans,

Their poverty’s severe,

They need health, food, and safety,

And dreams like we have here.

CHORUS:

Pennies for Africa,

Give your pennies for a child.

It may not be easy,

And it might take a while.

Here’s the cover for my new song available on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, and other places.

When I first heard of Delta Kappa Gamma’s program, Pennies for Africa, (I believe it’s a part of their Schools for Africa efforts)  I was fascinated. Through the years I’ve done a good bit of reading on that troubled continent, watched every movie I could that used it as a setting, and have known many white and black Africans from various countries, several of whom I’ve interviewed in detail. I’ve read everything Ernest Hemingway wrote, and of course, Africa is a significant part of his oeuvre.  I was so fascinated by the Pennies for Africa campaign that I felt compelled to write a song about it. Delta Kappa Gamma members loved the song, so much that they are going to create a choral arrangement of the song at their International Conference next year.  I’ve recorded my acoustic version of the song. You can hear it  and see the cover at this link:  Go here to this blog to see how the idea came about.  Here

Here are the lyrics. Feel free to share the lyrics as you feel the need, but please give me proper credit and list my website.

“Pennies for Africa”

Verse 1:
There’s a child in Africa,
Whose name you don’t know,
Living somewhere in Africa,
In a place you’ll never go.

Verse 2:
They need food and clean water,
Doctors and teachers too,
But that will never happen,
Without some help from you.

Verse 3:
Little girls and orphans,
Their poverty’s severe,
They need health, food, and safety,
And dreams like we have here.

CHORUS: (sung between each verse)

Pennies for Africa,
Give your pennies for a child.
It may not be easy,
And it might take a while.

I’d like to know what you think, so drop me a note if you can. I hope you’ll go to iTunes, Amazon, CD Baby, Spotify, etc. to listen to my song.
