![]() You may have to turn down a chance to get something or go somewhere, just so you can give a relationship the attention it requires. You may even need to make a sacrifice or two. If you want your love life to be as magical and as fulfilling as the rest of your life is due to be, you need to work on it. But this doesn’t necessarily mean that your heart is automatically going to feel happy at all times. Not in a bad way to the contrary in fact. Those born in the Year of the Horse have to look at the WIDER picture if they want to understand what’s going on in their love life at the moment and they have to be aware that this wider picture is due to alter, considerably, during 2022. Some relationships thrive in times of hardship but collapse when one of the partners begins to do well in the world. Likewise, when we feel frustrated because we can’t achieve what we want to, we can be restless and awkward with those we love. When, for example, we are short of money, our relationships can come under stress. They live in New York City.We all like to think that our feelings have nothing to do with our circumstances but it isn’t always true. Worrying that Phil was growing up alone, last year they adopted again, and are proud to be the somewhat negligent parents of a second plant, Phil Jr. In 2001, Justin and Day adopted a houseplant and affectionately named her Phil. His wife, a licensed social worker, is trying to help him overcome this last item, but finds the going hard. Justin is roughly six feet tall, weighs somewhere around 185 pounds (often more, to his chagrin), has dark-brown hair and eyes, and suffers from near-sightedness, motion-sickness, and a tendency to get angry at airport personnel. He first began dancing while a student at Boise State University, and first performed with Idaho Dance Theatre. During that time he also met and married his true-love, Day Mitchell, traveled with her to Tahiti, New Zealand, Kenya, Belize, Nicaragua, and a myriad of other, equally wonderful locales, and began work on two new novels, The American and Tomorrowland, and a book of travel essays about the American National Parks.Īlong with his writing, Justin also has a passion for classical ballet, taking class as often as six times a week, and performing occasionally with such companies as Dances Patrelle (for whom he has also worked as administrative director), and Eidolon Ballet in Concert. It took him fully six more years, umpteen rough drafts, buckets of tears and torrents of blood, to finish the novel and get it placed with The Overlook Press. While working on that story, Justin was first introduced to Uruk, a prehistoric hunter from the jungles of sub-Saharan Africa, and the hero of his first novel, Slaves of the Shinar. He expected to weather a fearsome barrage of scorn, and was happily surprised at how well they took it. While at Columbia he wrote what he has later come to call his ‘Barbarian Story,’ and turned it in for judging by his workshop class. Soon after, Justin moved to New York City, where he enrolled in Columbia University’s Writing Program, specializing in fiction and sincerely hoping to become the next Jack Kerouac. He graduated from Boise State University with a degree in philosophy, was named one of the school’s Top Ten Scholars, and invited to present the valedictory address at the commencement of the College of Arts and Sciences. Allen gives readers a picture of how America sees itself, and in so doing he offers up both a heroic vision of the past and hope for the future. ![]() ![]() Rowling, this is a book of fabulous adventure and deep resonance. Resonating with echoes of Mark Twain, Larry McMurtry, and J. With Tzu-lu as our guide, we experience a landscape of legend, stand toe-to-toe with those larger-than- life heroes and villains of our shared American mythos, and learn the inescapable facts that have both enriched and plagued our nation from its inception. Year of the Horse tells the story of Yen Tzu-lu, a child of Chinese immigrants unwillingly pressed into service by a gang of roughnecks bent on stealing a gold mine from a shadowy villain deep in the western wilderness. Year of the Horse is literary fantasy at its very best, a novel that delves into our myths, legends, hopes, and fears a coming-of-age fable set in our fondly remembered (if often fictional) past, an adventure more than capable of setting your hair on end. A thrill-ride adventure novel capturing the adventure, mystery, legend, and lore of America ![]()
