Sherry’s mission is helping people find creative, intentional and impactful ways to celebrate life and to express love for family and friends.
In the midst of everyday life, it is easy to forget how extraordinary — and fleeting— our lives are. Sherry’s philosophy is make moments into gifts.
Sherry has spent the last thirty years practicing finding the gifts in everyday life. Using disappointment, depression, and anxiety as her teachers, Sherry has developed products and practices for celebrating ourselves, the people we love, and the shape of our lives — even when none of those look the way we had imagined.
She asks, “What if we turn away from the feelings of ‘not enough’ and ‘something missing’ to everything in our lives that we can love and appreciate? What happens when we notice single, simple moments of joy?”
Sherry calls these moments “pinpricks of light.” Thirty years ago, the depression in her life felt like it was closing in on her, like a solid iron wall. Her life was transformed when she experienced a moment of well being during a meditation class. That moment felt like a pinpoint of light in that solid iron wall of despair. Ever since then, her practice has been to seek those moments of light; holding a purring cat, laughing with the store clerk, tasting a spritz of lime, hearing the mourning dove call.
She dedicated herself to finding these pinpricks of light. Sherry created an intentional practice of joy and celebration.
The real secret sauce of this philosophy occurred when Sherry realized that there are a lot of people in the dark who need pinpricks of light. Her work became about the magic that happens when we intentionally create moments of love, appreciation, and celebration for people.
When we give these gifts to others, we are always the first recipient of that joy.
She says, “I’m very passionate about gift gifting as a path to joy and deeper relationships. Giving imaginative and impactful gifts has been a spiritual and creative practice for me. It has literally changed my life.”

God’s Truth by D.K. Lundin
GOD’S MESSAGE TO YOU AND ALL HUMANITY
My children, you were created to be free.
Through history, you have become shackled in fear of me.
I am here to free you.
This book is here to help guide you.
— GOD
The messages from God in this book have been received in several ways. Most are through meditative prayer and telepathic dialogue. There are also two visions of God and Heaven, written about in “Three Orbs of Light” and “Reiki and Encounter with God.” There are four encounters with human conduits, written about in “St. Francis by the Freeway Entrance,” “St. Catherine Laboure on Confidence and the Date of July 18” and “The Archangel Gabriel’s Two Visits.” There are two Natural Phenomena occurrences, written about in “God’s House is Rumbling” and in the Introduction, in which God sent an earthquake as a sign.
If you feel distant from God, that you can never be GOOD ENOUGH to have a joyful friendship with our heavenly parent, God has asked this book be brought forth to tell you, “YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GOOD ENOUGH!”
For those ready to receive these new communications, you can discover a life of freedom, success, and joy that God always intended you to have! God wants for you – what you want for yourself!
This is not a scripture based book – this is a book about God and You.
It contains 139 short topics so you can easily get God’s input on issues that affect us all. Topics such as eternal life, death, why we’re here, your purpose, success, free will, the power of prayer, equality, gender neutrality, the planet, children, love, sex, finances and more!

As the strange man struggles to recall how he came to the island, Azura fears someone has the means to defeat all their safeguards. And with the temptation of life everlasting, it’s only a matter of time before the would-be-killer strikes again.
Can Azura and the outsider solve the riddle before Eden’s final secret is exploited for evil?

Author Bio:
A cat lover from an early age, Peter Scottsdale wrote his first cat tale, “The Cat and the Dog,” in a grade three creative writing exercise – the story of a cat and a dog lost in the woods, and the police shooting the dog for some reason. Peter drew inspiration for the story from Disney’s The Incredible Journey.
Inspired by such books as Hardy Boys Mysteries, Marvel Comics and Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Scottsdale wrote several published short stories with his grade nine English teacher.
Then life happened. Scottsdale stopped writing, only scribbling bits of story every so often. A family came along which turned into single parenthood. He raised his kids and wrote here-and-there.
Throughout his life, cats have been a welcome and influencing presence. From Tia (a Siamese) to Booties (a Tabby with White) to Rusty (an orange boy with little ears) to Sam the Siamese, Peter has loved all his felines (and still does). He’s loved all his cats so much so he started to write about them. They have inspired and delighted him to create cat stories and to find feline facts for his books.
Cat lover turned author, Peter Scottsdale published his first book, 365 Fascinating Facts You Didn’t Know About Your Cat, in 2012. He followed that with “The Christmas Cat” and “The Christmas Cat 2.”
An English Major, Scottsdale graduated from Medicine Hat College with an Associate of Arts Diploma in 1995. He continues to research our furry felines and write cat fiction and non-fiction and hopes fellow kitty-cat people will enjoy his work.
Currently, he resides in Medicine Hat, AB with his three cats: Tanzy (the feisty feline), Alley (the mischief maker) and Tigger (the gentle giant).

Author Bio:
Many have called Uncle Dave Howard and his award-winning children’s author as “inventive, determined, inspiring.”
Dave Howard could be considered all of these and more. Born on an unusually hot spring day in 1974, Dave M. Howard came into the world and before long he was struggling to see what the world had to offer. He was prescribed glasses at age four and his world changed from a fuzzy, confused world to a world that was clear, but somehow still confusing. His humor was an outlet as he asked such questions as “Wow, is that what aunt Verna looks like?” and “Is that what grass looks like?”. Dave was shy, but an easy-going child who took to art and storytelling as an escape from the world of restrictions to a world where he could become a superhero, dragon or whatever his imagination put on paper.
When Dave started school, he had trouble reading and writing and was placed into a special class that catered to children with learning disabilities. What the school did not know was, he had A.D.D. (attention deficit disorder) Asperger’s and dyslexia. The combination of disabilities and attending the special classes at school left him open to harassment and bullying by other students within the confines of his personal prison. The walls closed in around him as he knew he was too smart for these classes, yet couldn’t pass the mainstream curriculum presented to him. Dave’s hindrance was he couldn’t spell correctly because as he puts it, “I would get things backward in my mind”.
Today Uncle Dave shares his love of books as teachable tools for kids in an imaginary way, despite the disabilities, as he has overcome (most), he has turned his passion for drawing into a fun but a real business. He is widely known in the state he resides, PA and growing more popular nationally as he speaks to many schools and shares a positive message through his books that kids can do or be anything they set their minds to…

Planting Season Journal
You have to plant your seed! I was done living a life where I felt unfulfilled, overcome and without purpose. I couldn’t shake the feeling that there was more for me, more than a life of just existing. Finally, I couldn’t take it anymore! I made a decision to take action and do something about it. I didn’t know what to do or what I was going to do but I knew if I wanted something different I had to do and be different. One thing lead to another and I started writing. Within my writings I practiced gratitude, positive affirmations, meditation, goal setting, and reflection. Amazingly, over time, I started seeing and thinking differently. My mindset matured and it really started to change my life! I realized that the truth has always been that I am worthy and blessed in abundance. All I had to do was go and get it.
This journal is about that, putting in the work to become the best version of yourself. Putting in the work so that you can get what has been waiting on you. It’s not a quick process nor an easy one, but it is a possible one. One that leaves you feeling so full and empowered. If you are reading this then that means you are ready to plant your seed and grow. Change doesn’t have to start with something grand. Start here and start now with simple daily writing practices of gratitude, positive affirmations, meditation, goal setting, and reflection. I believe that to change your life you have to change your mind and this journal will help you begin your process of doing that.

Erik Henry Vick is an author who happens to be disabled by an autoimmune disease (also known as his Personal Monster). He writes to hang on to the few remaining shreds of his sanity. His current favorite genres to write are dark fantasy and horror.
2 Dark Mirrors
Erotic, poetic and inspiring. 2 Dark Mirrors follows a woman who discovering both freedom and her strength through her submission to a man whose eyes she never sees.
5* on Smashwords (before moving to Amazon). Written by a Dominant and based on the experiences of his submissives, it’s a refreshing take on the genre.
His profile is so dark that it scares her. It’s so unlike the others that simply promise of hookups, his asks for things that are so (wonderfully!) wrong and asks for things that are too much to ask… She tries to put it out of her mind, yet it finds her in bed at night when she is weakest – moving her hand beneath the sheets and pulling her into an irresistible carnal fantasy. Giving in, Lina is drawn into an erotic, sensual world of training, sessions and mind-blowing sex.
Following her Master to a Latin American country of immense beauty and political turmoil, she lives blissfully naked in paradise, unaware that she’ll need all of her new-found strength to survive and discover a memory she’d made herself forget.
Quotes:
“Patrick smiled as he watched her, waiting before speaking. “Have you ever seen anything more beautiful?” he asked.
In the silence after, the awe she’d heard within his voice lingered in the air. Without words and without his commands, there was nothing she needed other than this. She stayed like that a long time, with her head bowed and unmoving until finally she closed her eyes, feeling utterly at peace.
…As he did, simply watching her breathe.”
—
“…somewhere in her mind the breeze becomes her light and she sees him bent over her. Basked in sunlight together they throw golden silhouettes like some carnal and ancient art that had been etched in sandstone eons ago”.
—
“Sex is a world of opposites. The filthy acts we crave with one person are often completely repugnant with another… imagine the difference, even in a kiss.
These parts of us are not for everyone, and these desires have little to do with love.”
—
“…and as she steps lightly to the cupboard in bare feet, they barely seem to touch the floor. She appears to float, both weightless and powerful. She has become part of the air that surrounds them and the air that he breathes.”
—
“Recognizing her gift and her desire, his hand tightens and his teeth graze the offering of her neck. She wants him to bite and even to take her blood, the trust that allows her both her fantasy and her fear.
The carnival rides we take, she thinks, believing we won’t fly from the rails.”

Impurity by Ray Clark
A murder with no weapon or motive. A detective on edge. A community that wants answers.
One fateful night when off duty, DI Stewart Gardener intervenes in a street brawl and his wife is shot dead.
Trying to come to terms with this, he gradually returns to normal duties policing the streets of Leeds. Finding his wife’s murderer is never far from his mind, but with no leads and a hazy recollection of events, it seems hopeless.
Soon he is presented with a shocking case. A man is found dead in a grubby apartment, having been killed in the cruellest of ways. It is not long before another man meets the same fate.
The deaths are caused by a rapid and violent disintegration of the victims’ flesh. Pathology cannot ascertain the cause.
The only connection between the victims is they both worked seasonally as Santas, dressing up as Father Christmas and entertaining kids in grottos and such like. Who would want to kill such innocuous men as these?
The detective is flummoxed. The local community is ruffled. The press is having a field day. The top brass wants answers. Can DI Gardener overcome his grief and solve the case?
IMPURITY is the first in a series of six books featuring Leeds based Detective Inspector Stewart Gardener. They are all murder mysteries but as suspenseful as the best thrillers. FREE with Kindle Unlimited. Look out for the next in the series, IMPERFECTION, coming soon on Kindle.
If you like crime fiction that has you glued to the page and reading late into the night, this is the book for you!

Evolve Your Mind by Dean Chapels
About Evolve Your Mind by Dean Chapels
In this book, an author asks if it makes sense to seek out the purpose of life.
Until recently, most people believed in God. Then the conventional mindset has been slowly changing and today, many individuals believe in science instead. Science maintains that there is nothing extraordinary out there. Reality is nothing more than the endless continuality of routine.

Dying On Purpose by H. Richard Steinhoff
About Dying On Purpose by H. Richard Steinhoff
Dying On Purpose
Richard Steinhoff had it all—a beautiful home, a loving wife, a successful career in real estate, and a best-selling book. Then a diseased gall bladder landed him in the hospital, and a series of complications nearly killed him. While he was there, he had an out-of-body, Near-Death Experience and encountered a Heavenly being who told him to return to his body because he had not yet completed his Life’s Purpose.
He immediately set out on a journey to discover his purpose. When he found it and stopped living Off-Purpose, he knew he didn’t want to see another soul living Off-Purpose. That’s when he decided to share his story in this book. His purpose was not just to tell his story; it was to help people change their lives and live a happy, fulfilled life.
Everyone on this planet was put here for a purpose.

Her recent engagement to an Elder’s son, along with her talents and devotion to the Goddess, have all but secured her a spot as one of the village leaders. With all eyes on Rose, her abilities quickly fall under the scrutiny of the Council of Elders. Her faith in the Goddess begins to wane as doubts about the nature of the magic she forbids take root.

BODIES: Erotic Suspense
This is the third book in the Ken Ross Romantic/Erotic Suspense Series. WARNING: This book is shocking, in more ways than one. After WASTED PAIN & PROTECTION comes the disturbing story of BODIES in which Jerry and his gals are settled in their house enjoying what’s always been at the center of their lives, sex, until Jerry strays, and then… hey, things get a whole lot worse. One blunder, a major incident, and then they head to the greatest shocks of their lives. Although they’ve thought sex is everything, they eventually learn that there is no sex without freedom. Who survives to the last page? This story is not for the fainthearted, or for those searching for sweetness and light. It’s damned shocking. It’s sizzling hot. Its characters are even hotter. And after BODIES Jerry, Patsy & Erica’s adventures continue in three more shockers, MAMA, BROKEN SISTERS, and GOODBYE VIOLET.

Mermaid Cliff by Brandon Rohrbaugh
About Mermaid Cliff by Brandon Rohrbaugh
Secrets come to light in this supernatural mystery, sending one teen on a journey that will change his life – forever.
Rockport is a small, seaside town. After the new girl at school is found murdered beneath the iconic, Mermaid Cliff, a group of teens will hunt for the killer or become the next victim. The town is thrust into the national spotlight, forcing an investigation into the town’s darkest secrets.
The townspeople have always preferred to stay out of the spotlight. They have their own traditions and secrets. The most intriguing part of Rockport, however, is the Legend of Mermaid Cliff. It’s not a science fiction story of vampires or werewolves. It’s not a fantasy tale of magic or superpowers. The Legend of Mermaid Cliff is a reminder; a reminder to the townspeople of their sinister past.
One boy, Mark Parker, swears to avenge the death of the girl found murdered beneath the cliff. Mark recruits the help of some friends and begin to unravel the mysteries of Rockport. The events that transpire during the investigation send Mark on a path that will question everything he ever knew.
