Donny, Joey and Rose are best friends looking forward to a summer of fun and wilderness exploration before starting their senior year of high school. Little do they know that a chance encounter with a mysterious man is about to change their lives forever. After hiking around the spectacular waterfalls of Kenworth State Park, Donny saves the life of an old man, only to discover that he is a powerful Shaman. To express his gratitude, the Shaman gives Donny a gift like no other ever given - the ability to READ MINDS! However his unique gift comes with a few strings attached: it should only be used for good; Donny will get to keep the gift for several months but then he must decide to keep it forever or give it back; but if he decides to keep it there will be a price to pay. Donny has had a crush on Carla Banes for years. One of the most beautiful and selfish girls in Lake Monroe, she doesnt even know hes alive. However once she discovers his secret, Carla will stop at nothing to make Donny her pawn in order to take full advantage of his gifts financial possibilities. Joey and Rose want whats best for Donny but can they compete with Carla? Should the Shaman have trusted a teenager with such an immense responsibility? If Donny keeps his gift, what type of sacrifice will he have to make? Ultimately the only one who can choose is Donny, while knowing that his actions and decisions will determine the rest of his life! www.stevegodofsky.com

Can Cameron find what hes looking for?

All 16-year-old Cameron wants is to get through high school—and life in general—with a minimum of effort. Its not a lot to ask. But thats before hes given some bad news: hes sick and hes going to die. Which totally sucks. Hope arrives in the winged form of Dulcie, a loopy punk angel/possible hallucination with a bad sugar habit. She tells Cam there is a cure—if hes willing to go in search of it. With the help of a death-obsessed, video-gaming dwarf and a yard gnome, Cam sets off on the mother of all road trips through a twisted America into the heart of what matters most.
