NEW The Seems: The Lost Train of Thought (Hardcover) by John Hulme (Author), Michael Wexler (Author)
Fixer Becker Drane never thought things could get so bad: he's in deep trouble with The Seems for breaking so many rules, he never gets to see his girlfriend, and it looks like his days as a Fixer may be numbered. So when a train carrying a load of Thought destined for The World disappears, Becker reluctantly agrees to join a crew of fixers to solve the mystery-in The Middle of Nowhere. The mission leads Becker into a scenario more terrifying and dangerous than he could have ever prepared for. Getting the Train of Thought back on track is just a temporary Fix. Becker's real mission may prove to be saving The World from ending-forever.

Becker Drane’s still got the coolest job in The World, but it’s getting harder and harder to live a normal life outside of The Seems. He’s always working, getting pulled out of bed to go Fix, and his Me-2™ spends more time with his family than he does. And even though it’s completely against the Rules, he can’t stop thinking about Jennifer Kaley, the totally cool girl he met during his Mission in Sleep. Things don’t get any easier when a bomb explodes in the Department of Time and Becker is called in to take over for a more senior Fixer who disappeared during the Mission. With so many lives at stake, it’s his toughest Fix yet; Becker finds himself going places in The Seems he never knew existed and meeting people long thought dead. Yep, it’s just another day in the life of Becker Drane. Let’s hope he lives to Fix again. . . . Read an excerpt from The Seems: The Split Second |

The Seems: The Glitch in Sleep (Hardcover & Paperback) by John Hulme (Author), Michael Wexler (Author)
Twelve-year-old Becker Drane has definitely got the coolest job of any seventh grader in Highland Park, New Jersey. He works as a Fixer for The Seems. From the Department of Weather to the Department of Sleep, The Seems is a secret organization that makes sure our world keeps running—and more importantly, sticks to The Plan that’s been made for it. But The Plan, and The Seems for that matter, would be nothing without the people in it, and that’s where Becker Drane comes in. When a Glitch is reported in the Department of Sleep, Becker is dispatched to Fix it, but he’s not so sure this is a routine mission. Could the Bed Bugs, who are behind our Worst Nightmares, be responsible for the problems? Or maybe it’s The Tide, an underground organization bent on destroying The Seems? No matter what, Becker’s in for quite an adventure, and it’ll take all his training, a little luck, and the coolest Tools™ known in (or out of) the Seems to Fix the problem.

Together, using the accounts of first-hand witnesses, they travel back to Vietnam, to the place where Jack spent the last few moments of his life…so they can finally come to terms with his death.

Michael Wexler - For the Fun
Princeton University graduate, ex-professional card player, and author of five published books, Wexler's sophomore release proves nothing short of remarkable. A quantum leap forward from the none-too-shabby "It's Too Late to be A Rock Star [EP]," the melodies bring new life to the meaning in this stand-out bio-pic LP. Heartfelt hooks like "Beside the Point" and "For the Fun," echo the album's penetrating message while ballads like "The Junk Collector" and "The Night I Robbed The Memory Bank" mine the margins where the psyche begins to fray. Though Wexler eschews playing live, and only a select few may ever stumble upon his "imaginary music career," those who do will not be disappointed. "In Tune" Magazine, July 2008 |

Vanishing Point
![]() |
Beneath the surface of everyday life is "The Circuit" -- an exotic realm hidden in the burnt out barns, abandoned trainyards and secret alleyways of the American road. Join two young travelers as they stumble into world filled with gypsies, hitchhikers, and Travelers on a search for the mythical location known only as El Dorado.
"In the spirit, but not quite the fashion, of old-time radio serials, Vanishing Point follows Matt Gray and John Krane, desperado pilots of a beat-up Cadillac. With the help of a "bible to the road," the two encounter more than potholes on their excursions; the cosmic road map perpetually turns them towards mystical doorways and curious characters...and offers a twisted, literate sense of adventure to the willing radio listener." College Music Journal. Thirteen half-hour episodes, featuring special guest appearances by Mary Stuart Masterson, Donal Logue, Pat Hingle and Christian Slater. Also includes ad campaign for Geneweavers™ , "Changing the World one person at a time..." Available Soon. |
