No legs? No problem for Spencer West Spencer West in Kenya. West, who has no legs, plans to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest peak, this month. How does a man with no legs climb a mountain? If you’re waiting for the punchline, it’s no joke. On June 10, Spencer West, who stands two-foot-seven and has no lower body below his pelvis, will begin a journey to the peak of Africa’s highest mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro. West was born with a severe deformity of the spine that resulted in his legs being completely amputated. Spencer learned to walk on his hands and has since overcome every challenge life has thrown at him. He’s been a cheerleader and high school actor, has helped build schools in Kenya, and travels the globe as a motivational speaker. Now he’s going to take on a mountain.

Great new review from the Allen Letter!  For those of you that aren't familiar with the Allen Letter, it is a Professional Journal for the Manufactured Housing Industry.  Their newsletter publishes monthly, and inside May's edition is a great review for Murder on Aconcagua.    "Does the name Charles (Chuck) Irion ring a mental bell with you? By now, it should!  Why?  He's the veteran LLCommunity owner who has fashioned a second career for himself as an author in general, a mystery writer in particular.  I've reviewed several of Chuck's books in past issues of the Allen Letter professional journal.  This time around, I've got a 'winner' for you.  His Murder on Aconcagua , 'A Summit Murder Mystery' is well done, but most important, is his first real 'page-turner'.  I read it during my flight to Las Vegas (MHCongress) a few weeks ago, and 'time just flew by', as I got to know his characters, learned more about mountain climb...

I met Ken Rotcop at one of his three day workshops here in Arizona, learning about screen writing and getting my book ready to pitch to Hollywood movie producers.  Ken was the head of several major Hollywood studios, and gave me great insight about how to get Murder on Everest on the big screen.  I think Brad Pitt would make a great Scott Devlon, and his wife Angelina Jolie a great Tarja.  Do you agree?   Murder on Everest is selling at a record pace, and the readers love it!  Right now I'm busy writing the final mystery in the Summit Murder Mystery series, Murder on Kilimanjaro .  I will keep you posted on future events as Murder on Everest the movie evolves and when the grand finale of the murder series, Murder on Kilimanjaro comes out!

SAO PAULO, Brazil - A fire at Brazil's research station in Antarctica left two people missing and forced the evacuation by helicopter of 44 people at the base, the Brazilian Navy said.  The blaze broke out in the morning in the machine room that houses the energy generators of the Comandante Ferraz station, the navy said in an emailed statement. The website of the O Estado de S. Paulo newspaper said the two missing men died in the fire.  The navy's press office declined to comment. The statement said one man suffered non-life threatening injuries and that the 44 people at the station at the time of the fire were transferred to Chile's Eduardo Frei station. In a second statement, the navy said the efforts to extinguish the fire were suspended due to bad weather.  The firefighting crew was evacuated to the Chilean base and will return once the weather improves. Chile's Defense Minister Andres Allamand told reporters the fire had "completely destroyed...

AWESOME review received for Murder on Aconcagua, take a look!   "When I received the chance to do a book review for Murder on Aconcagua, I was very intrigued. It had been a long time since I had read a murder mystery and I was happy to have the opportunity to read this book. I have heard a lot of good reviews about the Summit Murder Mystery series and this book definitely did not disappoint. From the moment I read the Prologue I was hooked. The characters, story setting and weaving of historical locations made for a gripping tale. I found myself having a very visual concept of Aconcagua as I was reading.

Among all the excitement of the climb you get wrapped into the characters and their ulterior motives. Mystery, murder and even a few creepy moments keep you turning page after page. As I reached the end of the book I re...
