LIES PEOPLE TELL
LITERARY EXCELLENCE AWARD WINNER
Web Del Sol |
It's hard for me to admit, but here at Lies People Tell, we have to tell the truth: We don't hold a candle to Web Del Sol -- perhaps the finest literary web site out there. "The nature of WDS is not to present a specific theme per issue, but simply to acquire and frame the finest contemporary literary art available in America and abroad, and to array it in such a manner that it speaks for itself. You might say that Web Del Sol classifies as a grand experiment, a literary event at once in a continuous state of birthing and crescendo, always becoming--yet a bit of the ideal world too, for the concept never changes, i.e., to discover, nurture, and webpublish the finest in contemporary fiction, essays, and poetry." And all dat ain't no lie! |

I believe it was Burt Bacharach who wrote, "What the world needs now, is love sweet love...." Well, at Codehouse they believe that what the world needs now is high quality Java Programming and Egg Timers. Yes, you heard me correctly: Egg Timers. Go to CodeHouse for your FREE Egg Timer. |
This tiny site is put up by some lunatic who apparently loves fire and freeways. It is dedicated to stories that happen to people who drive on lonely highways. |

A fabulous site to visit if you are looking to read great poetry or perhaps publish some of your own. |

| This site actually scared me once. There was some link that led me to this photograph of some beautiful women -- a famous model or actress or something whose name I have forgotten. She was nice looking until a serpent's tongue crawled out of her mouth and licked her eyeball. I can't seem to shake this disturbing image but I shouldn't allow it to color my entire impression of what is an excellent site that inquires into the nature of the human psyche and the cosmos. |
