In the author's latest work, Believe in Make-Believe, Stephen Fanning tackles a subject every parent dreads and knows the time will come for it; the time when our young children's world of make-believe and magic gives way to the functional and factional world of life. Challenged to defend the delicate actions of a parental expression of love, through the mysterious and elusive remunerative act of the tooth fairy, Fanning courageously explains to his young daughter the reason for the guise of make-believe. In this fast-paced and time-oriented world, a father takes the time and understanding needed to explain, that reality is often fashioned by those who live it. Center stage and for all to see and learn from, witness a firsthand account of how to explain the magic of Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, The Tooth Fairy, and all the other magical entities whom we have revered from times of old for the sake and love of making the world of children just a little better. Stephen Fanning does this in such a way and with great conviction to the feelings and emotions of a child and makes learning the truth, although alarming, a palatable and positive experience. This simple, but elegant, work is a must-read for all parents and grandparents, in part because to explain the magic of life to a child can be extremely traumatizing, not just for the child, but also for the parental figure. When we as parents learn our children have lost that magical innocence, which we have so painstaking endeared, our world is also injured. Stephen Fanning covers that aspect with just as gracious elegance as he does the enlightenment of the child. For everyone who has ever had to face this moment and for everyone that ever will, thank you Stephen for being there and for showing us how to do this with conviction and compassion, a rare combination in this day and time.

God blessed them saying: be fertile and multiply, fill the earth and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and all living things that move on the earth.” Genesis – 1:27-28 Humans acting factually and logically can do so much good. Rest in Peace-Rural America is Charles Ciancio’s hard-hitting expose’ on the over-governing bureaucracy that is destroying the freedom of one of America’s greatest resources, Rural America. Ciancio paints a detailed and somewhat gloomy picture of the “Fourth Branch of Government. This fourth branch is comprised of endless agencies and bureaucrats who fiercely enforce overlapping jurisdiction regulating our land, water, and air. Numerous events are cited that leave the reader spellbound as to how these rules, laws, regulations actually work against the good of the American people. As the agencies grow, so does their bureaucracy creating more licenses, permits, and various other revenue generating penalties against the American People. Whether you are a weekend camper or a career forester, RIP Rural America will open your eyes and mind to what the future will hold if these powers are not put in check. This book is a must have for all colleges and universities. The future use of American resources is at stake, so join the movement with buying and reading Rest in Peace Rural America Today. Though the author is not a biologist, hydrologist, watershed specialist, or professional writer; he has worked as a professional Field Forester since 1966 and was born and raised in the rural areas of California. Ciancio’s experiences came from the real world field experiences and his intimate background of living through the creation of the current California Forest Practice. He is a family man and cares deeply about his surroundings and the prospects of our future.

Editor in Chief for Entry Way Publishing ONE DAY AS A LION/TV/RADIO TELEVISION / RADIO / U-TUBE As seen on Channel 8 News and as printed in Dallas Morning News on May 28, 2007 Entry Way and Digi-Tall are proud to announce R.D. Foster and his upcoming book, "One Day as a Lion." For vet, it's time to remember 05:22 PM CDT on Monday, May 28, 2007 By MICHAEL E. YOUNG / The Dallas Morning News myoung@dallasnews.com McKINNEY – Two weeks after graduating from McKinney High School in 1966, Ronnie D. Foster joined the Marine Corps, hoping for some adventure and the chance to help the people of Vietnam. RANDY ELI GROTHE / DMN Ronnie D. Foster stands at the Ridgeview Memorial Park grave of fellow Marine Bill Bryan, who was killed in Vietnam. Six men with McKinney ties who died during Vietnam are buried in Ridgeview. When Mr. Foster finally came home three years later, he learned that a lot had changed about America's attitude toward the war, even in places like McKinney. An old friend and fellow Marine, Gilbert Garza, stopped by with a bit of advice. "He met me the day I came home and said, 'Don't talk about the war with anyone,' " Mr. Foster recalled. " 'No one wants to hear about it.' " So for 35 years, that's exactly what Mr. Foster tried to do. He'd lost one of his closest friends in the war, the guy who'd enlisted with him, who'd joined him on that long train trip to basic training in San Diego. Three other school friends died there as well. So did the young husband of a girl who lived up the street, who just a month later gave birth to his only child. "For years, I tried not to even think about it," Mr. Foster said, "but I did, every day. "And after 35 years, I thought, 'I'm not going to let anyone forget about it, even if I have to jam it down their throats.' " So Monday, Mr. Foster will be part of a small Memorial Day service at Ridgeview Memorial Park, the final resting place for six of the 16 men with ties to McKinney who died while serving their country during the Vietnam War.

Foster reminisces about childhood friend and fellow Marine Bill Bryan. 6 from McKinney who didn't come home It will be the first Memorial Day service at Ridgeview in years, maybe since the war in Vietnam, said Terry Turrentine of Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow Funeral Home, which owns the cemetery. "Back when the war was on, we used to have services here," Ms. Turrentine said. "I can still remember those. I had an old coffee can, and when they had the 21-gun salute, I'd pick up all the shell casings. "I don't know where that coffee can is now. But it was a very moving experience." No one intends for this service to compete with the traditional McKinney Memorial Day observance at the historic Pecan Grove Cemetery. It will be low-key, with members of the local Veterans of Foreign Wars chapter placing wreaths on the six graves, and a trumpeter, who works for the funeral home, playing taps. But the service itself has enormous significance, especially to Mr. Foster, the key organizer. Collin County lost 21 sons in the Vietnam War, he said, including the 16 who had ties to McKinney, a town of about 15,000 people in the mid- to late-'60s. And of the men killed in action during the war, men whose names are etched in The Wall at the Vietnam War Memorial in Washington, D.C., most are buried at Ridgeview. Mr. Foster had a connection to almost every one. "Three of these guys were good friends of mine," he said, "and I thought it was time we had a little memorial service for these guys." He grew up down the street from Charles W. "Bill" Bryan. Bill's dad worked at the local cotton mill. So did Mr. Foster's mom. And through high school, they shared a couple of mutual interests – guitars and girls. During their senior year at McKinney High, they talked about their futures. Mr. Foster, who said he always felt a strong connection with the soldiers in World War II movies, especially after reading Guadalcanal Diary in the seventh grade, said he was going to enlist in the Marines. "Bill said, 'That sounds good – I think I'll go with you,' " Mr. Foster said. "We wanted to be part of history." So they enlisted together, took the train to San Diego for basic training and hoped to be assigned to the same unit. That didn't happen, though. Mr. Bryan was sent to the infantry, then to reconnaissance school, while Mr. Foster was assigned to motor transport. "I saw him once, maybe six months after boot camp, at Camp Pendleton in California," Mr. Foster said. "I saw Bill at the beach club they have at San Onofre and we talked and talked. We tried to get a beer, but we were only 18, so we couldn't." Soon after, both men were sent to Vietnam. Cpl. Bryan led a seven-man recon team near Khe Sanh that was sent in to gauge the strength and monitor the movements of North Vietnamese Army units. On Jan. 20, 1968, a North Vietnamese battalion overran the team. Cpl. Bryan was killed trying to save two of his men. "I was in Okinawa at the time when I got a letter from my mom," Mr. Foster said. "Inside was the clipping from the newspaper about Bill. It came about two weeks after he had been buried." Two others of the six buried at Ridgeview were school friends as well. Darrel "George" Mahan, who had gone through junior high with Mr. Foster, dropped out at 17 and enlisted in the Marines. Thomas Holdbrooks graduated from McKinney High in 1967 and joined the Marines, too. Mr. Foster didn't know the others buried at Ridgeview – Army Spc. 4 Martin LeRoy Rodgers, Air Force Capt. Richard Ryan or Army Spc. 4 Vernon Wayne Woody – though he did know Mr. Woody's wife, who grew up down the street. But their shared service creates a bond that won't be broken, Mr. Foster said. Now he hopes the rest of the country, even those who opposed the war, can understand why these men willingly put themselves in danger half a world from home. "I think things are finally beginning to turn around," Mr. Foster said. "Even the people who didn't go, now they want to know what it was like. "I get a lot of e-mails now from old classmates who say things like, 'It's time to thank you guys for what you did.' Right or wrong, our intent was noble," he said. "We thought, 'There's this little country over there and the big guys are trying to go in there and take over.' I can't speak for everyone, only the Marines I knew, but we were trying to help people live free lives." Mr. Foster knows his way from grave to grave at Ridgeview. Some days, something inside pulls him that way and he drives down to the cemetery and spends some time with his old pals. A few days ago, he wandered beneath a gun-metal sky, traffic humming past on U.S. 75, and paused by each gravestone. "I feel like I'm among my brothers there. There is a brotherhood especially among Marines – once a Marine, always a Marine. And I really feel that brotherhood with guys who gave their lives." Maybe he pauses a little longer by Bill Bryan's headstone – close friends then, and close friends now. "Bill was just a great guy," he said. "I don't think anyone didn't like Bill." So when Mr. Foster's own son was born, he paid his old friend the ultimate honor a man can bestow. He named his son Bill Bryan Foster. ---LATEST NEWS FLASH!--- * * * * * * * * * * Take moment and visit RD Foster's YouTube creation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciJdfnBYBmMThis book review aired on 11/26/07 at www.mckinneynews.org. McKinneyNews.net Credit: Elise Anderson Book Review One Day As A Lion By Rodney Williams E-Mail Author | Read Blog McKinneyNews.net Staff Writer Sunday, Nov 25th 6:19pm I'm not normally one for book reviews, so the fact that I'm sitting down to write about this book should speak volumes, no pun intended. The tome in question is "One Day As A Lion." It's a local work, written by a McKinney resident about local boys. But these subjects of the book form part of a tragic sphere. The 21 subjects, who each command a chapter, were all young men from Collin County who died serving their country in the Vietnam War. That was the hook for me. I did a story on the author, R.D. Foster, for a Veterans Day story weeks ago. I didn't have to read this book, I wasn't expected to, but my desire to learn more about this chapter in America's history overwhelmed me. The truth is, I cracked open this book knowing little about the war. Perhaps this is an indictment of our education system, but I had never studied the Vietnam War, not in high school, not in college. We spent weeks learning about England in the 1500s, but not a single minute about one of the most tumultuous periods in this nation's history. So it was that I had a deeper mission in mind than just finding out about local heroes when I opened "One Day As A Lion." Foster snagged me in the first chapter. Ronnie Foster served in Vietnam, and it's obvious early on that there was a greater sense of purpose guiding his fingers across the keyboard in the creation of this work. A former marine, Foster knows what he's talking about, and it's that inside knowledge that really helps move this book along. When Foster talks about life in the rice paddies, it's obvious he knows what he's talking about. But the Collin County men who lost their lives in country are at the heart of "One Day As A Lion." Young men like Royce Glenn Scoggins and Charles W. "Bill" Bryan left their homes and family in McKinney to willingly serve their country and never came home. Foster's purpose in allowing us to get to know these young men is to bring the war home and make it more real. One word of caution here: "One Day As A Lion" is an unflinching look at war. It gets up close and personal and pulls no punches. If you're looking for a candy-coated collection of obituaries, look elsewhere. Nearly every chapter deals with the life and death of local soldiers. Their time in Vietnam is chronicled, as is the way each of them died. At times, "One Day As A Lion" is a hard read simply because the reader gets to know these young men as more than names at the beginning of a chapter, yet their fate is already cast. "One Day As A Lion" is an emotional roller coaster, but it is a must-read for anyone living in or around McKinney or anyone wanting to know more about what happened half a world away little more than 30 years ago. Well-written and factual without being overly so, "One Day As A Lion" is an entertaining and intriguing read. Foster's work is a respectful tribute to the local boys who lost their lives in Vietnam and, as such, worthy of your consideration. Oh, and what of the title? It comes from an old Tibetan proverb: "It is better to live one day as a lion than ten thousand years as a sheep." Fitting.

One hundred years later the descendants of these men fought another revolution to maintain that freedom. Almost two hundred years after that, their descendants were called upon to defend the freedom of this land in America’s longest war to date. One Day as a Lion is a gut-wrenching reminder of the war and social revolution of the 1960’s. This was a time when patriotism was not always the norm and when soldiers and heroes were often treated shamefully by their own people. R.D. Foster takes a unique look at the brave and often unsung heroes of Collin County, Texas. Most were little more than boys, but were transformed into men through extraordinary circumstances and volatile situations. These are the stories of those who did not return and how and why they died. The intense action of the firefights and attacks include well-documented information on positions, weapons, and units involved, both friendly and hostile. The author, R.D. Foster, a veteran of the Vietnam War himself, portrays each of the fallen hero’s stories with a finesse and dignity that is sure to earn the respect of both the academic and military readers. Not only are there interviews with soldiers, sailors, and Marines who fought side-by-side with some of these young men, but also included are copies of letters written home, bad-news telegrams, and newspaper accounts of the actions fought and the deaths suffered that would forever change America. One Day as a Lion is a graphic and powerful reminder about who we are and how we lived and died. This is a must-have account for all academic instructors and military students, much less the families, friends, and loved-ones of service men of today. The lessons learned are why many of our gallant Vietnam Veterans could never really come home. Still living in the area, the author is experiencing success as a writer and is Editor-in-Chief of Digi-Tall Media and Entry Way Marketing and Publishing. His first novel, Last Train Runnin was published in 2005 by PublishAmerica and is a story that takes place in the mid-to-late 1960’s when America was in great turmoil. The story follows the lives of two young men as they try to cope with their own separate, but parallel worlds encompassing music and war.
