Church laundry is out and the church spies are zooming in on the happeningsE Lloyd Kelly’s new and controversial book, church Laundry was released and made available to the public on Dec. 8th 2018. This project consist of over 59,000 words, 33 chapters and over 220 pages Part fiction, part fact, where the author uses what is, and what is known and practiced routinely by his subjects and target audience, but which is in his view not good nor is it sustainable in the long run, but the fiction part of the story points the reader to another way, another possibility. A coming together of two genres one might say. The cleaning crew has been showing up in some churches of late, and they are finding quite a hefty load in the basket and elsewhere. The muck under the carpets required heavy duty lifting, at those churches where a particular kind of people have been worshipping, the dirty laundry has been piling up for too long a time and the washing crew is sparing no resources in attempting to clean up the mess. The wash day clothesline is growing longer and longer and is laden heavy under the load. Stretched out behind the church building too but not far enough out of sight of the scrutinizing eyes of curious passers-by, and parishioners alike. Parishioners are mad as well, at the whole debacle. Not to worry about that though, or nottin else, I mean, anything else, every little thing is going to be alright, right? And if and when God finds out about this, she is going to be really upset no doubt. And some people are going to get what they are going to get. But you don't have to worry, yet. You have been good. You have behaved yourself nicely, it's the naughty ones who are going to get what’s coming to them, not you and me, right? Get the story here. Stories like these: …Some savage beast from a wilderness theme. Bit the brother hard in the crust of his bloodstream. Oh how he hallowed, oh how the brother scream. But none was found worthy, to reach out and save him, so it would seem.
He had was to Hallow yet more, he had was to curse, just to stop him from popping open, blow up and burse. Could he find you though, doing the wrong thing when upon his imminent returning, he should find you and me, like, like drifting, drifting away? Like you've been seen to be doing. Even while you were doing all of those other things. Like, while you are there a-lean, lean, leaning? Leaning on the wrong side? Of everything? Of course not you, only the other you, I mean, the other he, as in the Elk, as it is in this case. He alone could be found guilty of such. But choh man, shut up yu mouth nuh, yuh chat too much arready. Get the Church Laundry book, and be sure to read it at least twice. that way you may get a chance at seeing what it is that the brother is really saying to you. Promise? Church Laundry by E Lloyd Kelly, is an epic piece of poetryChurch Laundry by author and poet E Lloyd Kelly is an epic piece of poetry documenting the story of a people, a particular kind of people. The book is set to go public on amazon Kindle on Saturday the 8th of December but it is actually available now for pre-ordering. Church Laundry is a non-fiction story chronicling the life and times of the people which the author describes as the acutely over-churched boat peoples and other wind-rush generation types. The book is packed full of real life stories, anecdotes and a few pieces of standalone poetry thrown in here and there. The long knives are on the grindstone sharpening really sharp, because many within the church community who have been privy to the project are already up in harms and are very disgruntled. But the hope is, according to Kelly, the hope is that they would have seen the generous sprinkling of precious things scattered in between. The Church Laundry storyThe cleaning crew has been showing up in some churches of late, and they are finding quite a hefty load in the basket as well as elsewhere. The muck under the carpets required heavy duty lifting, at those churches where a particular kind of people have been worshipping, the dirty laundry has been piling up for too long a time and the washing crew is sparing no resources in attempting to clean up the mess. The wash day clothesline is growing longer and longer and is laden heavy under the load. Stretch out behind the church building too but not far enough out of sight of the scrutinizing eyes of curious passers-by, and parishioners alike. Parishioners are mad as well, at the whole debacle. Not to worry though, about that, or nottn else, I mean, anything else, you’ll find out real soon, no doubt. And if and when God finds out about this, she is going to be really upset no doubt. And some people are going to get what they are going to get. But you don't have to worry, yet. You have been good. You have behaved nicely, it's the naughty ones who are going to get what’s coming to them, not you and me, right? My people know a lot of things. They know me well too, they know that I don't know squat, they know that God didn't tell me to write that bunch of scrap, they know that god, our God even, god doesn't work like that. They now is about to know, that they didn't know, that I was going to go, and say these things, that god never did see coming, and now finds it so disappointing, and therefore I'm going to get what’s coming, coming to me, cause no sin goes without a beating. And we all know that she is going to be really fuming, when you are done with all this reading, and see everything that is stored up within, me. Surprise-surprise though, she really never did see this coming, not at all ConclusionGo right on now, all of you settled ones. Stroke your funny bones. Sing the swan song, again, and go take your rest, sleep in heavenly peace. Nothing hard for you, not even hard enough to hurt your feelings, and wake you up out of your slumbering, in the cradle up there on the treetop, Rock-a-bye baby rock, enjoy the tumbling too, don't worry none about the sudden stop.

Manley story, as told in the book -how to train a wild puppy dog named, Manley, is an unconventional romance, Jamaican Yardie style. So, what is a romance story? Type these words, what is a romance story into a search engine and one will be likely to come away with terms and phrases such as: happy wife= happy life, keep your wife happy, warm loving feeling, etc. I once came across a comment on a Facebook group page, which was discussing a newly published romance novel. And the comments said, “but this is not romance. That wasn’t what got the alarm bells going for me though, it was what then followed. –romance should be like: girl meet boy and… the how-to instructions continued. Well, it wasn’t those actual words which were used but you get the point. So, I thought to myself, if that is what it’s like to write a romance novel, or any kind of novel for that matter. Why not just make a mold or a grid or something like that, and issue it to the would-be writer, who would then needs only to go out and insert some choiced words into the slots and voila! You have your novel? Romance or otherwise. In the meantime though, follow along with those results after inserting those search words or term, -what is a romance story, or just, how to write a book? With those search terms, one is likely to come across many industry insiders who will say emphatically that, originality is the key. I had one such guru, told me, (in his writings of course,) his advice is to learn all of the rules in writing a bestselling novel, and then go out and break them all. Why do I like this guy so much? So, which is it? The how-to method which will say: that’s not the way how it is done –this is. Or the ways of originality? I will take originality on any given day. That said here’s my new and very “Original” book called, How to train a wild puppy dog named, Manley. This book is a new kind of romance story. A “romance novel” from the point-of-view of a man –a puppy-dogish type of man, you know the type, don’t you? Get the Manley story today, a hot, unconventional romance novel, Jamaican Yardie style
