After the Voyage: An Irish American Story by Brenda Murphy
About After the Voyage: An Irish American Story by Brenda Murphy
At the heart of After the Voyage is an arranged marriage poisoned by well-intentioned lies. From different counties in Ireland, Maggie Qualter and Richard Terrett both sail to America as young adults in 1870 after surviving Ireland’s Great Hunger as children. Maggie works as a maid for a wealthy family. Richard finds work in a tannery. After the death of the young wife he loves passionately, Richard marries Maggie with the help of a deceptive go-between. They raise three children in the midst of Irish American culture, the Catholic Church, and Richard’s battles for the workingman in the Knights of Labor. Daughter Mary dreams of being a nun, while Josie seeks the freedom of big-city life in Boston. Neither reckons on the future she will face. Son Tom escapes factory life by joining the Navy, manages to see the world in the midst of two wars, and comes home to marry his sweetheart and start a new life. Their stories are both remarkable and familiar to everyone whose ancestors made their way to and in America.
The events in the Terretts’ lives are as they emerge from the public record. But their inner lives, their thoughts, their relationships, their words are imagined as a route to understanding these five complicated and fascinating people.

Another Day to Love by Kolein V Carlson
About Another Day to Love by Kolein V Carlson
Another Day to Love began as the musings of one woman and her broken heart. After being rejected and slandered by 250 of her former church friends, Kolein found her voice through her pen. With Sundays now free, she began to examine religion, love, true communion, friendship and the voices in her head and heart. Through these words, all of them written at the moment on dozens of Sunday mornings – never planned out – simply Kolein and her morning cup of coffee sitting in front of her laptop – she allowed the voice within her to speak. Nearly all of her ramblings were shared on social media over the course of 6+ years. The words, written as a list, often include the goings-on of her sweet family life with her husband, their two sons, their art and music, their pain and joy. Each list ends with the same words: “It’s Sunday. Another day to love. Happy Sunday.” This is her first book. However, she has several others that exist in her mind and laptop waiting to be released. Her hope is that at the very least you, the reader, will find a piece of yourself in her words. If you do, please let her know. She is truly honored that you are here. You can reach out to her at freetofindpearls@gmail.com. Kolein is available for counseling, speaking engagements, workshops, singing performances and book signings worldwide.

Ainavel: Episode 1 – The Curse of Two Houses
About Ainavel: Episode 1 – The Curse of Two Houses
As the old tale says, two powerful Houses ruled all of Erydan once. Their representatives protected northern borders from the creatures of the Chaos. The unknown evil destroyed this order many centuries ago.
Now the sun is dying and the Mysterious Void is circling around the Five Lands of Erydan. The chaos is rising. However, the most powerful descendants of the Two Houses don’t think about uniting their forces and still quarrel with each other.
If the prophecy is true – only the lost heirs from the noble Houses can change the fate of the world. A man from the House Alvedrion and a girl from the House Lohelin who are connected by a strong bond.
But mysterious curse keepers haunt all living descendants.
Young Ainavel, who sails with his father, an experienced Guardian of the Sea, lives like ordinary Sea Man. He doesn’t know yet that he will have to face these evil creatures one day. He also doesn’t know that he will be forced to embark on a dangerous adventure – a death game that will change him forever.

Trump 2020: The Case for the Re-election of Donald J. Trump
About Trump 2020: The Case for the Re-election of Donald J. Trump
As the time for another election approaches, it is high time for the American people to make yet another decision. Did Trump keep his promises? Is he the right person to Keep America Great? This book answers some critical questions on the eve of the 2020 election. First, before moving further, you need to know why Americans chose Trump to run the country. The reason Trump got elected is that he gave people a vision. He gave the people of America hope. And his optimistic view and hope of making AMERICA GREAT AGAIN put him into the oval office.
Donald J. Trump, like or hate him, is the President of the United States. There is no other political figure in recent memory that has been so polarizing. Despite this, he has accomplished so much in so short a time for America. Trump is already a consequential President in American history. He is the first US President to meet with a North Korean dictator. He is the first President to attend the March for Life. Under his administration, we have experienced the lowest Black and Latino unemployment. Women have experienced the lowest unemployment rate in 50 years during his first term in office. In this well-researched book, Josh takes you on a journey and shows you why Donald Trump became President of the United States in 2016, and why he is likely to be re-elected in 2020.
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT DONALD J. TRUMP
Hillary Clinton’s chances reached 91 percent last night — their highest point yet in this election cycle. The latest rise comes from gains in Arizona and Georgia, as well as hints of further weakness in typically safe red states like Alaska and Utah.From the beginning, Donald J. Trump faced a challenging electoral map, and his campaign has not improved his chances. At this point, even a large polling miss would not be enough for Mr. Trump to win — it will take a sudden and striking change in the fundamentals of the presidential race. As a rule of thumb, we should expect Election Day polling averages to miss by as much as 3 to 4 points: Mrs. Clinton’s current lead in the national popular vote is around 6 to 7 points and growing.—New York Times 2016 Presidential Forecast, Tuesday, October 18, 2016 (nytimes.com)
It really does now look like President Donald J. Trump, and markets are plunging. When might we expect them to recover? A first-pass answer is never… So we are very probably looking at a global recession, with no end in sight. —Paul Krugman of the New York Times the day after the election (investors.com)
Trump’s ‘Haters’ Are the Ones Breaking America—Kimberley Strassel (cited by The Daily Signal)
I’m Concerned If We Don’t Impeach This President, He Will Get Re-Elected—Rep. Al Green (Real Clear Politics)
I like almost everything about him. He’s, I would say, a very refreshing figure in American politics. And of course, that’s what makes him a disruptor.I guess his ability to see things slightly differently is what’s most refreshing, his ability to look at an issue and say, “Why don’t we do this?” And everybody says, “Well, you can’t do that.” And he says, “Well, why not?” He has that side to him, and I think it served him very well in a number of ways.I think that’s part of the reason a lot of Christians turned to Trump, because they saw that somehow he gets this. This is not somebody we might have picked first and there still may be many issues that we would quibble with, but honestly, getting that is so big.—Eric Metaxas (Interview on The Daily Signal)
For God’s Sake Trump’s Tweet is Not Witness Intimidation—Gregg Jarrett (thegreggjarrett.com)
Reminder that the Clinton campaign and DNC secretly hired a group to put together a dossier with demonstrably false dirt on Donald Trump and its author claimed it was sourced to people linked to the Russian government.—Mollie Hemingway (Twitter: @MZHemingway)
Dems ‘chasing rainbows’ with impeachment, Trump headed for ‘landslide’ win—Governor Mike Huckabee (FoxNews.com)
