Billy and Nick are salesmen whose careers have been torpedoed by the digital world.

INSPIRATION TUESDAY: BOOK REVIEW

An Armless Girl and a Pirate By Marzipan Maddox
Genre: Comedy, Inspirational
Published: March 9, 2019
Words: 100,990
Language: English
ISBN: 9780463431375

This is a story that follows two disabled girls as they graduate from school. They are caste into the job they will work until they die by the totalitarian state they live under. The girls venture into the unknown wilderness of the workforce and discover the significance and meaning of thoughts and feelings in a world that reminds them those things as entirely insignificant if not dangerous.


This is a satirical work that entertains the notion of developing a philosophy in a society where one is expected not to think. It is almost entirely a dialogue written in a style similar to Plato. Lighthearted, sardonic, and cynical, the wise mentor casually consoles of the woes of daily life as felt by a girl whose fragile mind is shattered by the revelations of adulthood.

 GLORY ROAD

This movie is based on a true story surrounding the events leading to the 1966 NCAA University Division Basketball Championship. Don Haskins, head coach of Texas Western College , coached a team with an all-black starting lineup, a first in NCAA history.

This is the story of a team that changed the narrative by winning the national championship with a predominantly black lineup. The team fairy tale run is not without complications as they will have to go against the world with determination and courage. A feel good movie based on a true story.
