WILLIAMSON, W.Va. -- Kyle Lovern of Williamson is no stranger to Unidentified Flying Objects.

Lovern, author of "Appalachian Case Study: UFO Sightings, Alien Encounters and Unexplained Phenomena," said he spotted his first alien spacecraft when he was just eight years old.

"I actually had a sighting with my family," he said. "We were sitting on the front porch in the summertime, and my father, mother, older sister and I saw three UFOs coming from the South."

WILLIAMSON, W.Va. - Expect the government to remove the lid soon on a secret it has held religiously more than half a century: Unidentified Flying Objects are real and come from outer space, says a West Virginia author on the verge of releasing his second book on the subject.

Kyle Lovern figures United States authorities have covered up the existence of UFOs since the celebrated 1947 incident in Roswell, N.M., out of fear they couldn’t control global unrest and fear.

In the early years of my editing and writing adventures, I spent a fair amount of coin on books about writing. I had high hopes of learning the secret handshake required of becoming a successful writer. In general, the books were a waste of time and money, but at least my coin helped put bread on the table for some starving writer, right?

A local radio and television celebrity hosted a special book launch party and book signing on West Virginia Day, Sat., June 20th, at Borders book store in the Huntington Mall.

"A good story connects to the reader on both an emotional and intellectual level. In the case of horror, the emotional and intellectual level is somewhere in the dark recesses of the heart and mind." — Elizabeth Massie

[June 15th, 2009) - We had an ornery visitor this morning outside a window at Woodland Press. This photo was taken through that window while this bandit was eating bird seed and Cheerios originally meant for our resident bird population. After enjoying a jumbo pile of seed, our new associate member decided to stretch his limbs on the patio rail and left. Altogether, he spent a good hour on our rear deck giving us a show.
