<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><i><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Silent Odyssey: A Tale of
Kingdoms</span></i><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> by Christopher Walker is an engaging fantasy novel that
tells the captivating and profoundly moving tale of Aeron Konungur, a young
prince forced to face up to the harsh realities of an ailing world brought upon
him by invasion and warfare. Once peaceful Aeryndor, known for centuries of
prosperity, is thrust into turmoil after Thurin Runegast unleashed destruction
upon it - providing Prince Aeron with an emotional journey from child royal to
leader with great depth and resonance. <span style="color: red;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Walker skillfully explores
themes of growth and resilience as she balances between home comforts and the
harsh realities of the outside world. Aeron's journey encompasses both his
physical journey as well as an internal struggle he must undertake to cope with
hardships that have plagued him in life, such as the tragic loss of his older
brother and his own physical deficiency. Character development stands out in
this regard; his transformation provides readers with someone they can root for
while empathizing with.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Walker vividly conveys Aeryndor
through his descriptions of Wodenfort and the wider landscape, providing both
an inviting yet perilous backdrop. Aeron's transition from city life to
adventure travel underlines how drastically his world has altered, making
Aeron's growth all the more impressive.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><i><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Silent Odyssey: A Tale of
Kingdoms</span></i><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> by Walker is not simply an exciting tale of adventure and
conflict; rather, it explores what it means to confront one's destiny and fight
for something greater than ourselves. Walker's novel combines epic
world-building with deep personal development; Aeron Konungur's journey is an
inspiring testament to human grit under seemingly overwhelming odds, making
this book an incredible fantasy read!<o:p></o:p></span></p>Kevin O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01714701442098040551noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522453621008299512.post-64307610600801824342024-03-23T08:04:00.000-07:002024-03-23T08:04:54.471-07:00Come SURF with Us (Adventures of The Four Little Coconuts)<p><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1916606075/" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="342" data-original-width="342" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8lptXj6GNrixBc-g_J3IyuJBNYRsY_1SrdRfGiAwc9LSMhtsYjdckKAVxGZzcPlSH_D0z9tnzxYONdkdUbPPMmgoCslV7fEIjDyqDa8s2KGoRqQIunzs25fL3WSSzVkSPDKI-9gevvVMu3vXZ9JEqApyDdrDw4h_nAv-xbXRbpf8xH5oTb68Jp34WNJE/s320/416IEPeDbNL._SX342_SY445_.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="color: #0f1111; font-family: Amazon Ember, Arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px;"><span style="color: #0f1111; font-family: Amazon Ember, Arial, sans-serif;"><b><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1916606075/">https://www.amazon.com/dp/1916606075/</a></b></span></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #0f1111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700;">Come SURF with Us: An Epic Hawaiian Surf Adventure for Kids!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #0f1111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px 0px 14px; padding: 0px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;">Dive into the world of Hawaiian surfing fun with "Come SURF with Us," the first book in the Adventures of The Four Little Coconuts series.

Ravaged by climate change, nuclear devastation, and other cataclysmic events, the planet and its people continue to undergo radical changes in order to survive.

Traveling alongside them is an enigmatic Nomad who has served as the girls’ protector since they were created. Together, they must face the enslaved Hunter and the ruthless Huntress, lethal creations of the old world. The Hunter just wants to save the human woman he loves and lost, while the Huntress desires only to continue the Eternal Hunt and eradicate the final bastions of humanity remaining on Earth.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">And Haven has its own history:

International Study</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">L<span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">et's dive into this intriguing
piece, The Role of Tickling in Women's Lives: An International Study by Duncan
Taub PhD. Taub conducted four years of extensive research, gathering over 2,000
women's experiences of tickling from across the world and documenting those findings
in his book. What he revealed was truly fascinating - including when, why and
how tickling affects their lives. Although this topic might seem innocuous at
first, Taub shows us otherwise; his book illuminates its significance within
society as a whole.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Taub has you covered if you
don't consider yourself an expert scientist or researcher; his book's written
in an approachable style that makes it easy to engage. You'll find yourself
turning pages, nodding along, and perhaps even laughing out loud at some of his
insights - something perfect for sharing at parties while providing enough
material that makes you go, "Wow! Never thought about that before!"</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Taub does a fantastic job of
dispelling misconceptions and getting to the core of tickling's role in
evolution and social interaction, showing its longstanding presence across
human history. Tickling isn't some random act we do - there's a purposeful meaning
behind every tickle we give!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The Role of Tickling in the
Lives of Women isn't just another book; it's an experience. From conversation

everyone. So give it a read now; it might just change how you view tickling's

story with the world?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">At first writing Selah was a sort of therapeutic exercise.
As many people can imagine, going through workplace “drama” in and of itself
can be anxiety-inducing, so to go the route of becoming a full-blown
whistleblower was traumatic to say the least. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I started writing Selah maybe 2-3 months into the process
and the words just flowed. Every intricate emotion, every detail… writing the
book helped me reduce my stress, helped me sleep at night and even helped me to
remember small pieces of information as I reported things to investigators. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I think it’s also important to share that there were several
versions of Selah. The first version was very angry, vengeful and frankly over
the top. Then maybe a few weeks after writing a particular chapter, I’d
re-write it into something closer to its final version that had more of a
autobiographical feel. Then in the final writing phase, I decided that I wanted
to not just tell the story but share what happened in a way that would support
and /or prepare others like me. That’s when the “Whistleblower Handbook”
concept was born. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>How did you navigate the risks of revealing political
greed without disclosing specific names and organizations?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Well… technically I had to first learn the hard way. You
see, although the book itself didn’t mention names or organizations, I
definitely called out people by name in a few interviews I did as everything
was unfolding. At one point in time, the Board of Directors that I was initially
at odds with was removed from their positions, by their own official votes no
less. What sparked my initial fiery response was because that group of people
deleted official Board minutes as well as a recorded Zoom meeting where they
took an official Board vote removing themselves from their roles in response to
the evidence I brought against them. After getting rid of the proof of their
removal, they “fired me”. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I share all that to say, I did a number of interviews after
the “firing” to let the community know what was going on and I named names. The
interview I’m mentioning is actually still available on <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kaare-johnson/episodes/Shaun-Randolph--Exec-Dir-of-FTNO-The-Mayors-Fund-non-profit-Talks-Corruption-and-Diverted-e1odj3a/a-a8jee50">Spotify</a>
from the radio station that hosted it. It’s quite entertaining but it also got
me sued. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As I said, there were several versions of Selah and I
imagine while I was being sued, that was when I decided to integrate the idea
of switching out real names for the names of chess pieces.<span></span></p><a name='more'></a> <o:p></o:p><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Can you describe the emotional and psychological impact
of being a whistleblower, based on your experiences outlined in <i>Selah</i>?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Transparently, I could sum it up by just saying PTSD...
Going beyond that, I think the emotional element of it all varies depending on
the person. I would imagine that some people experience it through sadness or
even depression. I think others may experience a real and agonizing fear
especially if the person or people being exposed are in powerful positions. For
me, the primary emotion was rage. I was disgusted (and sometimes still am) with
the entire situation. I couldn’t fathom how the leaders and political
stakeholders of an organization that had so much potential to do good were so
short-sighted and selfish to just see it as a vehicle for political or monetary
gain. I was offended just as much by their breach of trust with the community
as I was with their actions in retaliation toward me. Whether its rage,
depression or fear, emotion that runs that high makes it hard to sleep as a
whistleblower. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Psychologically, the impact may have been even more intense.
In my younger years, I was into boxing heavy. I had a trainer, went to spar at
gyms and even considered dropping out of school to pursue Team USA + Golden
Gloves opportunities. My point is this, my trained instinct isn’t just to hit
back, it’s to attack when I even sense someone winding up for a punch. Imagine
having instincts like that in the midst of a situation where you are being
absolutely pummeled by legal, emotional and financial blows. I felt constantly
under attack. Not to mention, I was further triggered by the fact that my
family was also being impacted by all this as well. To be honest, Selah was the
closest thing I had to a healthy counterpunch and there’s a real possibility
that had I not had that outlet… I think my therapist would advise that I take a
breath now and keep the rest to myself. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>In <i>Selah</i>, you liken your experience to a chess
match involving multiple players and unconventional rules. How did this analogy
help you strategize your moves in real life?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Great question. I think the biggest example of the chess
analogy playing out in real life was how I “managed” the various
investigations. My role as a whistleblower was initially sparked when I
voluntarily called the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) hotline. Within 5
minutes of being on that call, some pretty high level people were brought onto
the phone and I was being asked if I would be willing to support their work in
a big way. After the OIG, came the FBI and after the FBI came private
investigators that were hired for a City Council led investigation. I learned
that each agency or firm had its own objectives, its own jurisdiction and its
own limitations. Furthermore, they were all completely independent. Although
they were each a resource to me and vice versa, I didn’t control or direct
them. A piece of information that was valuable to one agency may be completely
worthless to another… but getting out all the information was valuable to me.
At its’ peak, the chess analogy in action involved me pouring over all the
evidence I had access to and categorizing it based on agency (which agency it
was most relevant to), completeness (what information was “actionable”) and
time sensitivity (what information was fully baked and ready to share). So,
although I was completely up front with all investigatory efforts, there were
times where I had pieced together a more complete piece of information but I
would hold it until the opposing lawyers threatened me again or until a certain
article in the media was released, etc. The most fulfilling counterpunch is the
one your opponent doesn’t see coming. For me, that took place on the day of my
TRO hearing. All the Mayor’s cronies had filled the opposing side of the
courtroom to watch some fool who opted to represent himself (that would be me)
get pummeled legally and they got their money’s worth. HOWEVER, there was a
single individual who sat on my side of the courtroom and I didn’t even know
who he was. I would later learn and observe that within seconds of that hearing
being adjourned, he walked over to the opposition’s legal team and served them
with a subpoena from the OIG. Although I wasn’t fully aware of what was
happening at the time, in hindsight, I have the satisfaction of remembering the
smiles melt off their faces as their lawyers opened the paperwork that he
placed in their hands. How’s that for chess…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>How does <i>Selah</i> serve as a masterclass for readers
unfamiliar with the workings of political corruption?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Selah pulls the veil back from what readers assume when they
read about corruption in the media versus what it looks like in real life.
Based on my experience, corruption is rarely a single transaction. It’s usual a
system that is created or pre-existing and that system can be subtly leveraged
for political, financial or even personal purposes. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If someone were to Google the Mayor’s name right now, they
would see investigation coverage on her use of a City-owned apartment (personal
gain). If they read through some of the documents featured in my second book,
“Worth A Thousand Words”, they would see how payments were directed to members
of her political team who simultaneously served as contractors to the nonprofit
(financial gain). Let me make a quick note, when people hear financial gain
they assume a check being put into a politicians’ pocket. I’ve learned that
it’s equally as valuable to simply leverage and use OPM (other people’s money)
to pay bills you’d otherwise have to pay yourself. Moving on, both my first and
second books highlight that what I uncovered could certainly be categorized as a
“shadow government” which I would define as a web of inter-connected
organizations that when mobilized in unity can wield staggering political
influence. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">These are just some nuggets from the masterclass. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>What role does your faith play in both your decision to
blow the whistle and how you've coped with the aftermath, as described in <i>Selah</i>?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Another great question. I wouldn’t necessarily say my faith
played a significant role in the decision to blow the whistle. I can think of
many cases where people have and would have made the same decision regardless
of a faith component. That said, my faith has played an outsized role in the
aftermath. Not to be controversial or anything but I think the concept of faith
has been watered down and simplified to refer to what or who a person believes
in. When I reference faith, I’m specifically referring to the gift of being
able to tap into, lean on and walk with a higher power / person. And here’s
what ought to make faith controversial, if your faith doesn’t result in a
supernatural outcome, then what good is it? For me, I genuinely don’t believe
that I would be here, in my right mind (for the most part, lol), and with the
degree of peace that I have about not only this situation but the many
situations in life that have preceded it, if not for my faith. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And by the way, the battle continues. The stories featured
in “Selah” and “Worth A Thousand Words” are not the first of their kind in my
career and even since then, I’ve found myself in at least 2 other situations
involving advocacy of some kind.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>What were the most unexpected challenges you faced during
the federal investigation and the political firestorm you describe in <i>Selah</i>?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’d say the 2 most unexpected challenges were as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1) Even to this day, I am astounded at the delusion of those
involved. From the Mayor and the Board members on down to contractors who were
involved in the situation, there is not even the slightest acknowledgement of
wrongdoing. Everything is supposedly a conspiracy in their eyes. Sure, they
maintained multiple bank accounts where money was transferred from the City to
a political entity and then to the nonprofit I ran but that’s not why they’re
being investigated, it’s obviously because the OIG and FBI are just jealous of
their political success. That mentality was certainly one of the most shocking
and unexpected elements that I witnessed throughout the course of this ordeal. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2) The media. Man did I learn the hard way about how the
media works. Almost immediately after I began notifying City officials of what
was going on, the media found out and was reaching out to me. Like any naïve
person, my mentality was, since I did nothing wrong and was speaking documented
truth, I had nothing to fear from the media. I literally spent hours on the
phone with one particular “investigative reporter” walking him step by step
through each thing I discovered as well as sharing SOME of the supporting
documents to prove my points. In the end, he wrote an article about me that
strongly implied that I was somehow the suspicious party and maybe even guilty
of everything I had blew the whistle on. In my last interaction with that
reporter, he admitted that he was getting pressure from someone in the Mayor’s
camp and that he was a also long-time friend of one of the lawyers the
opposition had hired. Despite that, he also found an out-of-State “source” who
said that they believed all the accusations against me because I had done the
same thing to them. He wrote all that without a single shred of documentation
or evidence and meanwhile never mentioned or featured any documents that I had
shared with him. It blew my mind. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>How do you hope <i>Selah</i> will change readers’
perceptions of whistleblowers and the sacrifices they make?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Honestly, since releasing Selah, the public response has
been awesome. I’ve even had strangers who just read the description of the book
thank me and praise me for my bravery in the situation. That said, I don’t
think its’ the perception of whistleblowers that I aim to change but rather the
preparedness of the prospective whistleblowers themselves that I hope to
impact. The truth is, there are more people than we think that are currently in
situations where they are aware of or even apart of something that warrants
reporting but most will not take that next step due to fear of the unknown. As
with me, when I first came to the conclusion that I had to blow the whistle, I
had to research what to do. I was not aware the existence of the Office of the
Inspector General before but it just so happened that there were so many
investigations on-going that I had overheard that agency’s name mentioned in
passing once. I got lucky when I discovered that they were actually exactly who
I needed to contact for my situation. Most people assume that their respective
HR department is their only resource and naturally, they are hesitant to report
unsavory behavior to a department that may view itself as responsible for
defending the guilty party. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>What advice would you give to someone who finds
themselves witnessing similar corruption and is unsure whether to come forward?<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This connects to work that I’m currently doing. Not only do
I try to actively make myself a resource to those who find themselves in
similar situations but I’m also fielding engagement opportunities to teach
seminars and make presentations to relevant stakeholders that either want to
avoid sticky situations or want to know how to effectively respond to them. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Looking back, is there anything you would have done
differently in your whistleblowing journey, as chronicled in <i>Selah</i>?</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Obviously I biased but I feel like Selah and the situation
it chronicled was handled as well as it could have been. That said, if I have
one slight regret, it goes back to that recording that proved the “Board of
Directors” that fired me weren’t actually Board members anymore. To be fired by
a group of people who aren’t actually your boss and have that decision upheld
in court because you don’t have the evidence to prove what happened was
definitely the toughest lose I endured. The competitor in me wishes I could
have seen that coming and had a counter for it BUT it is what it is. I’m happy
to be where I am now and I’m still game for whatever future battles are to
come. <o:p></o:p></p>Kevin O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01714701442098040551noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522453621008299512.post-24457201507277547982024-03-12T05:57:00.000-07:002024-03-12T05:57:09.129-07:00Editorial Review for A Journey To Financial Freedom: Transforming Marketable Skills into Financial Independence<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://freedom.danchodimkov.com/wBbbJ2" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="445" data-original-width="288" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8M64bOkpFMCdhRnHG9OVyZOLUeU6RVyg6uoHff-oNdTbJFzGeYSL_4zLK91yEVMVw5djaqtZ8Nz_bBcWrfYifvkcNjd5TXJgQMTxrE5vVjNC7LrOWl2c3nFj0I1lvx1rlfnlHGru5rYspval4CfutI10Sy7_ERijjqXj_orM3kqHCFdIrCR-rcrBUX0g/s320/414Btfd7XYL._SY445_SX342_.jpg" width="207" /></a></div><p><a href="http://freedom.danchodimkov.com/wBbbJ2" style="background-color: white; color: #1dbf73; font-family: Macan, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-decoration-line: none; transition: color 0.2s ease 0s;" target="_blank">http://freedom.danchodimkov.com/wBbbJ2</a></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Palatino Linotype",serif;">Editorial
Review for <i>A Journey To Financial Freedom: Transforming Marketable Skills
into Financial Independence</i></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Dancho Dimkov's book <i>A Journey
To Financial Freedom: Transforming Marketable Skills into Financial
Independence</i> takes us on an engaging journey from skill development to
entrepreneurial success and financial independence. Not only is this book
filled with Dimkov's own experience but also provides actionable advice that
anyone looking for financial independence may use in order to follow in his
footsteps.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Dimkov outlines the importance of
finding skills others are willing to pay for, honing those abilities through
freelancing, and building your expertise. However, Dimkov continues his
discussion into the entrepreneurial journey by acknowledging its inevitable ups
and downs when starting and expanding a business.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">What sets this book apart is its
combination of personal narrative and practical strategy. Dimkov's guide covers
not only starting a business but growing it independently as well. His
introduction of creating consulting frameworks and digital solutions are
indispensable tools for reaching financial independence today.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">But <i>A Journey To Financial
Freedom</i> goes beyond simply offering success blueprints; it serves as an
eye-opener. The book prepares readers for both the joys and difficulties
associated with being an entrepreneur while providing key insights into running
a successful business. Growth isn't measured solely in terms of business size
but also through personal development and skill enhancement.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Dimkov's message is clear:
Financial freedom can be achieved for anyone willing to invest in themselves,
take calculated risks and build their business with strong foundations. No
matter if you are starting as a freelancer or are an aspiring entrepreneur;
this book might just provide the guidance you need on your path toward
financial independence. While it does tell a compelling tale; its story could
well become your strategy!<o:p></o:p></p>Kevin O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01714701442098040551noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522453621008299512.post-20053588569846557542024-03-08T06:05:00.000-08:002024-03-08T06:05:06.253-08:00The Noble Dream of Being an Artist: Hidden Faces of Art<p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://a.co/d/4e5zjUG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="466" data-original-width="328" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZedZVSMuRDvRFzgd8a6Z6_s19dsgLHjQ2Kx5PKeDJN5eSCZhvOeIFhV9bCfV0PcVdc2pKJ_dzckFZVArxtRcRsGNvvStP5j2ZFEUCnehn4WgH8hTVKGxumiCL6Qk6mDZZB3SYpzPt6gDQGMp3VzKk5RzwOk9pAjVK4zfLRCZWlV8mhnMYcm986qL0c6s/s320/71iJxiZXD+L._SY466_.jpg" width="225" /></a></div><p><a href="https://a.co/d/4e5zjUG" style="background-color: white; color: #1dbf73; font-family: Macan, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; transition: color 0.2s ease 0s;" target="_blank">https://a.co/d/4e5zjUG</a></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #0f1111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Imagine a book that gives voice to silenced artists and rescues their stories from oblivion.</span></p><span style="background-color: white; color: #0f1111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">In this moving compendium, the stories of 52 women artists from the past are shed light with poems inspired by their lives and artistic careers.

Based on fragments of a real family story, the novel is bookended at Dartmouth College where in 1790 a trunk arrives at the President’s house, triggering a cascade of memories. Spanning an entire century the novel takes us to the court of the mad Danish King, Christian VII in 1770, where Summy has been sent with her slave Phebe to be educated. As the intrigues of the court envelop her she discovers the coded diary of her great grandmother. Gradually she deciphers it, unveiling family secrets and the extraordinary rough and tumble world of St. Thomas in the 1690s. Filled with exotic and memorable characters, from Pundi, an Indian Brahmin doctor, to the brothel keeper, Mette, <i>The Missy Box</i> is a novel that explores deep friendship across the boundaries of slavery, crushing marital betrayal and the harsh realities of surviving in a tropical 17th century plantation world. Like the <i>Signature of All Things</i> and The Storyteller’s Secret, <i>The Missy Box</i> will completely envelop you in an historical world that you never could have imagined.</span></p></div>Kevin O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01714701442098040551noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522453621008299512.post-70644263681689797472024-03-02T07:39:00.000-08:002024-03-02T07:39:47.857-08:00Editorial Review for Don't Let Them Know by L.K.

Immortals</span></i><span style="font-family: Palatino; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> by Jason Clark</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><i><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The Training Grounds: Mystery of the Immortals</span></i><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> by Jason Clark is a breath of fresh
air in the realm of sci-fi and fantasy, blending elements of both genres into a
story that's as enthralling as it is unique. Clark, in his debut, crafts a
world that's at once familiar and intriguingly new, setting the stage for a
tale that's as much about the journey of self-discovery as it is about saving
the world.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The protagonist, Darius, is your everyman— a farm boy with
nothing but visions that he can't make heads or tails of. His invitation to the
prestigious Training Grounds, a place where the elite train in the arts of
warfare and elemental control, is as mysterious to him as his own unexplained
abilities. Clark has a way of making Darius's confusion and curiosity
contagious; you're immediately drawn into the mystery of why Darius was chosen
and what his visions could mean.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">What makes <i>The Training Grounds</i> stand out is its
ensemble cast. Clark has a knack for character development, making each member
of Darius's newfound group— from the skilled archer to the elemental wielder—
feel like an essential piece of the puzzle. Their friendships feel real and their
challenges, relatable. The dynamics within this group add a layer of depth to
the story, blending the excitement of new alliances with the tension of hidden
secrets.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The plot unfolds with a pace that keeps you hooked. The
Training Grounds itself is a character—mysterious and filled with secrets
waiting to be uncovered. The twists and turns as Darius and his friends peel
back layers of deceit to uncover the truth about the academy, and potentially,
about the world itself, are well-executed. Clark masterfully balances the
elements of mystery, action, and even romance, without letting any one aspect
overwhelm the others.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Perhaps the most compelling part of the book is the
underlying mystery of Darius’s visions. The inclusion of the reaper weapon adds
a sense of urgency to the narrative, weaving in an apocalyptic thread that
raises the stakes for everyone involved. It’s this blend of personal stakes
with world-ending implications that keeps the pages turning.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><i><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The Training Grounds: Mystery of the Immortals</span></i><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> is not just a story about a group of
young people training to become warriors; it’s about uncovering truths—both
personal and universal. Clark's debut is a promising start to what could be a
memorable series. For fans of both sci-fi and fantasy looking for something
that straddles the line between the two, this book is a fantastic escape from
reality. It leaves you questioning, right alongside Darius and his friends, not

Art of Walking</span></i><span style="font-family: Palatino; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> by Jesse Talemwa<i><o:p></o:p></i></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><i>Walkaholic: The Journey
Through The Art of Walking</i> by Jesse Talemwa is like a breath of fresh air
in a world where we're constantly rushing from one task to the next. This book
isn't just about walking; it's a deep dive into how something as simple as
walking can dramatically transform our lives for the better.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">First off, Jesse Talemwa has a
way of making you feel like you're walking alongside a friend who's sharing all
these incredible insights about life, health, and mindfulness. The book is
packed with practical advice on boosting your physical fitness and mental
clarity, but it's delivered in such a way that you don't feel overwhelmed.
Instead, you're inspired to lace up your sneakers and hit the road (or trail).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">What I absolutely love about <i>Walkaholic</i>
is how it reconnects us with nature and our inner selves. It's easy to forget
the beauty of the world around us, but Jesse reminds us how walking can be a
gateway to finding that peace and connection we often crave. And let's be
honest, who doesn't need a bit of peace in their life these days?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">The book doesn't stop at just
telling you to walk; it gives you a comprehensive guide on how to make your
walks truly mindful and transformative. The step-by-step techniques, combined
with stories from renowned walkers, make the art of walking accessible to
everyone, regardless of your fitness level or lifestyle.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">One of the standout features of
this book is the emphasis on the mind-body connection. Jesse doesn't just talk
about the physical benefits of walking, like improved health. He dives deep
into how walking can help us overcome mental obstacles, enhance creativity, and
even improve our relationships. It's fascinating how a book about walking can
cover so much ground (pun intended).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">For those who love a bit of
science with their self-help, <i>Walkaholic</i> delivers. Jesse backs up his
claims with research-based information, making it a credible source of
knowledge on the physiological benefits of walking. But don't worry, it's all
presented in an easy-to-understand way that doesn't feel like you're reading a
textbook.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Lastly, the book is filled with
mindfulness exercises, meditation practices, and inspirational quotes that keep
you motivated. Whether you're looking to transform your mindset, find
motivation, or simply enjoy the present moment more fully, <i>Walkaholic</i>
has something for you.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><i>Walkaholic: The Journey
Through The Art of Walking</i> is more than just a book; it's a companion on
your journey to a more fulfilling and purposeful life. Jesse Talemwa has
crafted a guide that's not only informative but also incredibly inspiring.
Whether you're an avid walker or someone who's just looking to improve your
well-being, this book is a must-read. So, what are you waiting for? It's time
to take the first step on your journey through the art of walking.<o:p></o:p></p>Kevin O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01714701442098040551noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522453621008299512.post-48134892148186857322024-02-25T05:24:00.000-08:002024-02-25T05:24:52.696-08:00THE SPYGLASS CUP<p><span class="a-text-italic" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 14px;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C5PHWJYL/" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="445" data-original-width="283" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAFcjvBuZ_dGQZ6v0oUoMb0-9AKR95W1E253acyzZXiX-zwcL1ICG857EN8Y_Pfm2Zz31iFWVGe7ntBBKCc2W9dmzQx5XeaZ72wUxmjGYZvydYEiVuc4Vm-BAnhxw9nNTHSah8-G_xLAoII0D6DoSopHZfw_rnYzYdNqii4OmH9nNzNDsjJPxXPV63mc4/s320/41i7NTyiiJL._SY445_SX342_.jpg" width="204" /></a></div><span style="color: #0f1111; font-family: Amazon Ember, Arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span class="a-text-italic" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 14px;"><span style="color: #0f1111; font-family: Amazon Ember, Arial, sans-serif;"><i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C5PHWJYL/">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C5PHWJYL/</a></i></span></span></p><p><span class="a-text-italic" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #0f1111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: italic !important;">LIFE IS GOOD</span><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #0f1111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> for eighth-grader Tom Grant. How could it not be in Pacific Ranch, the hottest new golf community on the Southern California coast? Weekends on the links are sprinkled with an occasional surf-session and the girl of his dreams lives a few blocks away. Innocent mischief, competition and camaraderie come into play as Tom and his three buddies carve out a charmed existence as regulars at Pacific Ranch Golf Club. All is right with the world until Tom learns that the very existence of PRGC is in imminent peril. Sworn to secrecy about the status of the club, he knows he must rally his friends to play the best golf of their lives in order to ensure the lifestyle they have all come to enjoy. Do the boys have what it takes to step up and pull off the impossible? What happens will change their collective lives—forever.</span></p>Kevin O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01714701442098040551noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3522453621008299512.post-51289298365805153132024-02-24T05:02:00.000-08:002024-02-24T05:02:26.482-08:00Editorial Review of Unleash Your Inner Warrior: A 30-Day Self-Love and Confidence Journal by Crystal Bean<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1716041813/" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="442" data-original-width="342" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzIP1szkGFnLSyJ5i8fsrTlTK2UyhXH1WirBkw3L8ulhEdwldzqe6E1wdKuFTEfusdiDTnE748tk3qhd3URwp7sZNirF5W3J2AzEj0Myuuhel9TxqNtQmJu3yObB-c1xGk32k5i8X0F0sPcGLhCVwnU1zdIztPSG3NdDYjkb_x54ujuN21pmJR7k7B370/s320/41A1fOrf93L._SX342_SY445_.jpg" width="248" /></a></div><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1716041813/">https://www.amazon.com/dp/1716041813/</a></p><p class="MsoNormal"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: Palatino; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: Palatino; mso-fareast-font-family: Palatino;">Editorial Review of Unleash Your Inner
Warrior: A 30-Day Self-Love and Confidence Journal</span></i><span style="font-family: Palatino; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: Palatino; mso-fareast-font-family: Palatino;"> by Crystal Bean</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We all have moments of self-doubt, but author and life coach
Crystal Bean intimately understands how unchecked lack of self-love seeps into
and contaminates all areas of life. Studies show up to 75% of women grapple
with cripplingly low self-image, affecting everything from relationships and
professional endeavors to self-expression and even parenting capacities.
Through her profoundly personal 30-day journal Unleash Your Inner Warrior
($19.99, Lulu Publishing), Bean reshapes this silent epidemic causing anxiety,
depression and unfulfilled potential on a global scale. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While smart, successful women hide insecurities behind
people-pleasing personas, men escape feelings of inadequacy through workaholism
and destructive behaviors. Bean herself overcome childhood trauma and
postpartum depression to emerge a mental health leader. Her book - with daily
writing prompts, affirmations and meditations - provides readers a structured
toolkit to transform struggle into power.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Topics explore perfectionism, suppressing one's voice/gifts,
past emotional wounds, boundaries around priorities and passion recovery. While
courageous, Bean's thoughtful approach makes space for radical self-honesty and
compassion. Through rewriting social conditioning, readers gain resilience
towards irrational inner critics and build vision for purposeful lives
authentically lived.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Unleash Your Inner Warrior fills the longtime void for
accessible, actionable self-help targeted to life’s messy complexities versus
peddling toxic positivity or unrealistic quick fixes. Alongside 1:1 coaching
offerings, the journal and online community make unraveling deeply rooted lack
of self-worth feel hopeful through veteran guidance. Consider this the
life-changing nudge - and supportive hands - to finally shine confidently as
you are and reach your highest potential.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

This intriguing science fiction novel explores the infinite possibilities of the universe through the story of Sudnum, a planet in a parallel galaxy.

Soon, it was no longer available in its original form and was at least partially censored by various confederations. In the Sinistra Confederation, it was available without the part that talks about Dukalis and the Sinistra Confederation. It was similar to the Dextera Confederation, where the book did not contain the part on the Notanay and the Dextera Confederation. It was somewhat surprising that they did the same in the Neutrum Confederation and cut the part that explains Dognalom’s troubles in the Neutrum Confederation. In the Confederation of Independens, it was not available at all. It was only available to a very limited extent in the Traditionalistae Confederation.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />The book is now available on planet Earth to give humans insight into the situation on planet Sundum.

by Joseph MacLellan<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><br />
<span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">If
you're tired of the usual fitness routines and the endless cycle of motivation followed
by disappointment, <i>Mind Over Body Fitness: The 7-Step Method I Used to Get
in the Best Shape of My Life Using a Breakthrough in Neuroscience </i>by Joseph
MacLellan might just be the game-changer you're looking for. This isn't your
average fitness book. It dives deep into the EMOTIFLO Method, a unique blend of
psychology, exercise physiology, and neurophysiology, aiming not just to get
you in shape but to keep you there. 1<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">MacLellan's approach is all
about the brain - understanding the "mind of success" and tapping
into neuroplasticity to build a sustainable fitness habit. It's more than just
working out; it's about reprogramming your mind to automate healthy behaviors.
This book promises not just a fitter body but a transformation in confidence,
health, and overall quality of life.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Garamond",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">What sets this book apart is its
foundation in neuroscience and its focus on the mental and emotional aspects of

They’re grifters—one an ordained minister, the other an atheist—who hit the road to target corrupt megachurch ministers.</p><p>"Raising offerings is a gift not every preacher possesses... If only thirty folks are gathered, I believe they've got my money among them. Even if one person gives it all, I'm still gonna meet my goal. If it takes three or four collections in a single service, rest assured, by the time I leave that pulpit every ounce of available cash'll be collected, be it from belts, boots, brassieres, you name it." ~Pastor C. T. Lathaniel</p><p>"It's why I despised prosperity gospel and developed a strong distaste for the ministers who preached it. I hated how they manipulated believers in their quest for wealth instead of souls. If allowed to, they would've flipped folks upside down, in the name of Jesus, and claimed every penny plummeting from their threadbare pockets... To earnest but beguiled believers, their pastors' prosperity was proof of the promise of their own. But they failed to grasp prosperity gospel's greatest hidden irony: believers' sacrificial giving ensured their pastors were the only ones, regardless of faith or sacrifice, guaranteed to prosper," ~Roland Wade</p><p>"l know you're for real, Roland. But what about the preachers who aren't? They're the real scammers, right? Taking advantage of people. Poor people. Vulnerable people. Hell, taking advantage of you. They deserve the same treatment. They're the ones we should hit... Hell, Roll, let's just try it. Pick a few of those crooked pastors you mentioned—the cheats and liars—and hit 'em," ~Nicholas Johanson</p><p>"Banned by 1000 churches!"</p><p>"The best banned book you may never read."</p>Kevin O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01714701442098040551noreply@blogger.com0
