Titled “100 Sonnets- Love and Demise,” the author takes you on a tumultuous tour through everything pleasurable, painful and disturbing about human relationships. Layne Thrasher’s personal notes about the book are found below:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;“Writing is not always peacefully releasing. Sometimes the words haunt, keeping one awake at night until they are released on the piece of paper where they live and breathe and ultimately die if not remembered. “&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;See for yourself if &lt;a href="http://www.booktopia.co.nz/featuredbook1.asp?StoreURL=booktopianz&amp;amp;bookid=9780595283941"&gt;Layne Thrasher&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.booktopia.co.nz/featuredbook1.asp?StoreURL=booktopianz&amp;amp;bookid=9780595283941"&gt; &lt;/a&gt;lives up to his own words with the impact the words in this book have. Thrasher continues, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;“Other times these words float around, forcing the author and others empathetic to relive the reasons and events which cause their creation in the first place.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;Sometimes the hand cannot keep up with the thoughts, they suffocate and drown one’s self and turn on you. Perhaps they will come to define you. In a world where we are all slaves to something or another, I gladly choose passion and words, passion in words as my fix. I hope &lt;i&gt;100 Sonnets&lt;/i&gt; will take you to that place you have always longed to go but have had difficulty finding.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.booktopia.co.nz/featuredbook1.asp?StoreURL=booktopianz&amp;amp;bookid=9780595283941"&gt;Layne Thrasher released this book&lt;/a&gt; during July of 2003. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Layne Thrasher &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;has another novel in the works to be released soon. “100 Sonnets – Love and Demise” by Layne Thrasher is available in hard-cover and paperback.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;The following text is courtesy of&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.booktopia.co.nz/featuredbook1.asp?StoreURL=booktopianz&amp;amp;bookid=9780595283941"&gt;Layne Thrasher&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt; and derived from the copyrighted work titled “100 Sonnets- Love and Demise,” This text may not be reproduced without the author’s permission.

The artist and his or her lover. This is a doomed relationship at times, as writers are dangerous beings. They live to write, and instead of letting art imitate life they sometimes feel the need to take matters into their own hands and force life to imitate art instead. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;It is a highly destructive interaction, playing with the lines of right and wrong, theme and action, inspiration and forced situations. More often than not, those involved are left broken but forever changed, perhaps for the better, perhaps wasting a rare gift.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6358773229143552057-6239103301589793432?l=laynethrasher.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://laynethrasher.blogspot.com/feeds/6239103301589793432/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6358773229143552057&amp;postID=6239103301589793432' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6358773229143552057/posts/default/6239103301589793432'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6358773229143552057/posts/default/6239103301589793432'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://laynethrasher.blogspot.com/2007/04/layne-thrashers-debut-book-is-now.html' title='100 Sonnets - - Love and Demise  By Layne Thrasher'/><author><name>layne</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04433894616230358087</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
