A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel- Chapter 1



#ABPOS The Thinner Soul, Chp. 1

Radiance- It's the first and last words I heard after my latest single played for my investors.  "Sounds like you have a bit of a thinner soul there."  What does one do with that kind of a comment?  Then the speculating glances between the suits.  Everyone turns into a philosopher, and you're left with a wince that doubles as a smile.  It wasn't a far fetched thought or a reckless curve.  Surely I waited til age forty to find out I was only thirty-nine years old.  It's a back up all right.  And just the kind of back up that gets you a wedding proposal before the official coat check.  I thought I'd missed it.  How did any of that happen?  Stupid questions; all of them, by now!  Well, if he doesn't show up by the date we set, I'm not just keeping the dress but I'm wearing the damn thing.  

Anyway, Radiance Dunbar has one last chance to make a splash.  I've already set the records.  It's got to be double or nothing, and that was my exact response to the suits.  "Double or nothing!" 

"Really Radiance?"  Those were the words I heard next.  I'm still trying to place where they came from.  Were they from the thinner soul within me, the thinner soul without me, or the thinner soul around me?  Wherever it arrived from.. my job is to sell four million records.  Ten years ago it was a no brainer.  Now, it will probably take some brains, but I'm still radiant and the voice is still there.  Just finding it a little hard to sum it all up, and sum it all up is where my faith begins.  Two albums later; one fell flat and one still sells.  Some of that is security features of course, but sound bites are sound bites and puzzled looks is not what I live for.  That being said, they're in and I'm thinking of looking her up.  Until then "Death to Forty" is waiting to brace the airwaves and winner takes all.

A Better Pair of Shoes, a novel                                                                     Chapter 1 Introduction ( narrated by Kayla) Just as we are living souls; life itself has a soul.  And there’s a heartbeat to life.  I call it the rising and the falling.  Just as we must rise, I’ve learned that we must fall.  I find that I’m grateful for the things I learn when I fall, yet I often dislike the cuts they bring and the scars they leave behind.  Today I fell, but perhaps for months I’ve been falling, and I have all the bumps and bruises to prove it.  Although they’re not visible to the eye, they are surely recorded on my soul.  It’s funny how often my spirit tried to warn me, with a bit of melancholy here and uncertainty there, but at the time, I hadn’t considered t...

A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel- Chapter 9

 Thank you for following UnEarth and A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel.   (Click on the Image to open a clearer view) #ABPOS The Thinner Soul, Chp. 9 Reece-   Women in business.  Always a friendly fight. We built what became of Ample Records; the househeld name and phenomenon.  The boys emerged with Ample Sound, but we don't change the records, and so I'm owner of management, Radiance is owner of the brand, and Kaylin walked away with all her publishing rights and most of the fame.  I recently got wind of Death to Forty and the legacy continues.  I'm slouched in my seat when they come through the door one after each other like Dunbars do.  I know it's just the way the clock struck them, and that there's no other reason she's here but to be sure none of our plans for Ample Sound conflicts with Ample Records'.  I'm stunned by her resolve, but we're all stunned by each other's resolve.  They're book publishing roy...
