Dear Readers: 
   

The MEG and LOCH movies are progressing, with both targeting the summer of 2015.  Which one will hit theaters first? I don't know. Which creates a dilemma - which sequel should I write first - MEG 5: Night Stalkers or The LOCH-2: VOSTOK? Then a unique storyline idea hit me - something radical. What if Jonas Taylor and Zachary Wallace were bound together in a secret mission in Antarctica (LOCH-2) right after Jonas crossed paths with a Meg in the Mariana Trench (MEG: Origins).  Then, in MEG 5: Night Stalkers the aftermath of that mission would impact the final MEG book. In other words, the story in LOCH-2 sets up for MEG-5. By penning the books in this order, I'd also be able to unleash a monster that dominated the seas alongside Meg - a newly discovered creature that will challenge even Angel's surviving brood.

WOULD YOU WANT TO READ THOSE NOVELS? If the answer is YES, then how about a sneak peek NOW!

If you follow me on Facebook, then you know that last week I began a campaign to introduce a new author: L. A. KNIGHT.  L.A. wrote a very funny romantic comedy (more Wedding Crashers than chick-lit) called DOG TRAINING THE AMERICAN MALE.  The story is about a radio host of a women's talk show who uses dog training techniques to domesticate her live-in boyfriend, empower her listeners, and raise ratings.

There are three big reasons you'll want to invest $2.99 to download this eBook novel (if you don't have an eReader you can read it on your computer).

REASON 1: The book is laugh-out-loud funny  (see the trailer below).
REASON 2:  A portion of the proceeds will go to ZapCancer.org to support the first human trials on what appears to be a cure for solid tumor cancers!
REASON 3:  As a way to get my loyal fans to become LA Knight fans, there is a bonus in the back of the eBook -- the first two chapters of LOCH 2: VOSTOK.

Now a confession... I am L.A. Knight.

I've always enjoyed writing comedy. A few years ago I wrote several comedy scripts that were finalists in screenwriting contests but were never taken out on the market. My father, Lawrence Alten (L.A.) believed that laughter is the best medicine. He gave me my sense of humor and a lifetime of love and wisdom and left us far too soon. Penning DOG TRAINING was therapy for me following his passing from melanoma. The book is so radically different from my other work that I was told by my keepers that it must be written under a pseudonym.

So why am I spilling my guts like a politician in confession? First, because I've never ever been dishonest with my wonderful readers and Second, because if I'm interviewed on TV then who am I supposed to be?

So there it is... I am Ironman. . .I mean, L.A. Knight. A name I chose to honor a kind, wonderful man who was our family's knight in shining armor.  WARNING: The novel is PG-17. So if you are a young MEG fan DON'T READ IT. You can buy it, just don't read it.

All my love,

--Steve Alten

Living Tips - Natural Remedy for balancing/curing Acid Reflux
Acid reflux is painful. Food and acid splash into the esophagus and cause belching, heartburn and, in some severe cases, chest pains. Some individuals have experienced pain so intense they thought they were having a heart attack. If a person experiences acid reflux on a regular basis, the acids will irritate the esophagus, which may advance to scarring, ulceration, inflammation or hemorrhaging. What is the risk of acid reflux? Many experts agree, if acid reflux persists, it may lead to esophageal cancer. Here are some remedies; I personally use a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in 8 ounces of water in the AM and it really works! Click here for more information
