Life After Work by Onwe P. Alita  

JP-001-fffffCopyAbout Life After Work by Onwe P. Alita

RETIREMENT and DEATH have one similar characteristic: their occurrence is as sure as tomorrow’s day break – except of course when death shows up first. This is to say that everyone must one day retire from whatever he or she is doing – voluntarily or involuntarily.

Unfortunately, many people stay aloof to the issue of retirement. Some are even deluded to think that they can avert it by some trick. And most unfortunately, this does not happen and most times, they are caught unawares.

But quite FORTUNATELY, this book has just emerged to shed some light on the need to prepare for retirement as well as some step-by-step guides.
– What is your personal balance sheet size?
• What is your networth?
• Can you prepare your personal income statement?
• Do you know how to calculate your wealth ratio?
• Are you minding your own business?
• What does it mean to mind one’s business and how does it translate to a happy retirement?

All these and many other basic financial lessons are what you’ll learn in this book. In addition to being your guide, this book will stimulate you to start now to prepare for your retirement – no matter how far or near it may seem.

Vir est suus fatum (man is his fate) goes a Latin dictum. so, why not learn from this book, how to take your financial destiny in your hands by starting NOW to prepare for your post-retirement life. Or do you want to join those who consciously plan to fail by unconsciously failing to plan?

Author Bio:
A prolific writer, teacher, researcher, mentor and personal coach, Onwe Peter Alita is a passionate believer in the youth and the tremendous powers that lie within every human being including the youths – given the right education. With this conviction, he has, through his company, Alita Consults Limited, organized several youth empowerment and entrepreneurship development workshops for students and out-of-school children with a view to helping them discover and apply their unique talents for the good of humanity.

He also conducts personal effectiveness, personal awareness and financial literacy workshops for salary earner and everyone who believes that he /she will one day retire – a major focus of his first book LIFE AFTER WORK, making tremendous positive impacts on their lives.

Onwe’s writings have been greatly inspired by the eternal truth in Robert Kiyosaki’s teachings – the need for financial literacy. The desire to add a voice to this all important but often neglected subject was actually ignited many years ago after reading Kiyosaki’s ground-breaking book, Rich Dad Poor Dad. Many of his yet-to-be-published works will still reflect this view.

Mr. Onwe has eleven years Retail and Personal Banking experience in four commercial banks in Nigeria, five of which were in managerial positions. He also has over five years experience in coaching and mentoring teens and out-of-school young adults as well as organizing pre-retirement trainings for workers.

He is happily married and blessed with children.



You Said Goodbye Too Soon: A Husband’s Journey Through Grief and Loss by Daniel Carruthers  

You-Said-Goodbye-Too-SoonAbout You Said Goodbye Too Soon: A Husband’s Journey Through Grief and Loss by Daniel Carruthers:

Just 99c, Oct 8 – 12.

One fine autumn day, Daniel Carruthers sat down and started writing a letter to his recently-deceased wife. You Said Goodbye Too Soon: A Journey Through Grief and Loss is that letter.

Daniel describes how he and Abbie met, their years together, growing-up and raising a family. He recounts, with raw honesty, the difficulties and tribulations they faced as a couple. Then, with great poignancy, Daniel describes Abbie’s sudden death and the effect it had on him and their children.

At times, brutally candid and in places unbearably sad, this short and beautifully written open letter constitutes a moving tribute to a dearly missed friend, partner and wife. This is a story that anyone who has ever loved will relate to as Daniel embarks on the lonely path of loss, grief and bereavement.

For anyone who has ever lost their wife, their husband or best friend, this letter, written from the heart, will strike a deeply felt emotional chord.

Deliverance Mary Fields, First African American Woman Star Route Mail Carrier in the United States: A Montana History by Miantae Metcalf McConnell  

Deliverance-Mary-Fields-ebookAbout Deliverance Mary Fields, First African American Woman Star Route Mail Carrier in the United States: A Montana History by Miantae Metcalf McConnell:

AN AWARD WINNING BIOGRAPHY

December 1885. Mary Fields, an emancipated slave, receives news of her friend’s impending death. She arrives in the Montana wilderness and finds Mother Mary Amadeus lying on frozen earth in a broken-down cabin. Certain that the cloister of frostbit Ursuline nuns and their Indian girl pupils will not survive without assistance, Mary stays. Resolute, she changes the lives of many, including her own.

She builds a hennery, makes repairs to living quarters, cares for stock, and treks into the mountains to provide food. Brushes with death do not deter her. Mary drives a horse and wagon through perilous terrain and blizzards to improve the lives of missionaries, homesteaders and Indians and, in the process, her own.

After weathering wolf attacks, wagon crashes and treacherous conspiracies by scoundrels, local politicians and the state’s first Catholic bishop, Mary Fields creates another daring plan. An avid patriot, she is determined to register for the vote. The price is high. Will she manifest her personal vision of independence?

MCCONNELL’S RESEARCH enabled USPS to verify Mary Fields as the first African American woman star route mail carrier in the U.S. A chronicle of Fields’ life in Montana from 1885 until her death in 1914, the narrative examines women rights, bootleg politics, Montana’s turn-of-the-century transition from territory to state and its scandalous 1914 woman suffrage election.

Praise for Deliverance

McConnell has fashioned a historical narrative marrying prose and poetry, fact with creative writing. With the discerning eye of a photographer, the deft hand of a historian, and the literary heart of a poet, the life of Mary Fields, legendary black woman of Montana, rises off the page into living history. If the reader has any interest in Mary Fields, aka Stagecoach Mary, Deliverance is the one book you must read.
—Cowboy Mike Searles, Author, Professor of History, Augusta University, GA.

A great story and history of Mary Fields, an important black westerner. A must read for youths and adults. —Bruce A. Glasrud, Author, Professor, California State University.

Stealing Magic by Alex C Vick  

x-defaultAbout Stealing Magic by Alex C Vick:

There’s no such thing as real magic. Everyone knows that. At least, Shannon thought she did. Until that day. The day that changed everything.

So put yourself in her shoes. What would you do? Would you open your eyes, if you were the one that heard them? Two magic-takers from another world, arguing about whether they can collect what they came for before you wake up. It sounds like a crazy dream, or maybe a practical joke. But what if the air around you started to vibrate with an invisible force field? What if, all at once, it felt terrifying yet familiar too?

You would have no way of knowing that your life would change forever. That this discovery would set you on a path no-one from our world has taken for centuries. Towards a deadly enemy, and a fight that you will almost certainly lose. All you know is that your heart is beating so fast you’re worried they will hear it, and your brain is starting to buzz as the force field reaches it. Would you open your eyes?

Stealing Magic is the first book in the Legacy of Androva series, and it’s free on the Kindle store until October 9th. Join Jax and Shannon on the most exciting and terrifying ten days of their lives (so far)!

I love reading stories about magic, and I’m always hoping that I might actually encounter some. It got me to wondering why magic is so hard to find. Perhaps, a long time ago, magic was everywhere. And then maybe we were forced to give it up. For a very good reason, of course, with a properly signed treaty and everything. Then I wondered what would happen if someone broke the treaty and smashed the secrets wide open. What would the consequences be, and would everyone survive them? That’s Stealing Magic.

My real life (when I’m not writing more books in the Androva series) is split between family time with my husband and two daughters (my first beta readers!) and working in finance. I also love photography. My website has an interview with two of my main characters that takes place just before the first book starts, so that you can get an idea of what they’re like.

Fouling Shot  

512dG1c6B1LAbout Fouling Shot:

Fouling Shot – Plot Synopsis

Will Gunnison (a successful hunting guide) is on a hunting trip with clients, John Buckhart (the CEO of an international investment firm), Alex Wooldridge of Woods Petroleum in Australia, and John’s son – a 21 year old rich kid with attitude.
John is Will’s biggest client and source of referrals. Alex is a new client for Will and a potential client for John. Alex is in the states working on a contract with the Federal Government because he has developed a new solar panel that will put the Chinese manufactures out of business. At this point no one knows this. John only wants to represent Wooldridge’s investments.
John’s son, Tyler, is the typical entitled millennial that was raised with money and was never really paid attention to by his parents. He hates is father and hates his Dad’s new trophy wife even more.
As they are hunting along the Canadian River in Oklahoma, a small plane seems to try to land on their location and then explodes over them. In the wreckage of the plane Will finds evidence that the plane may have been spying on Alex Wooldridge who dies in the explosion. The plane was owned by a rival petroleum company.
While the FBI are their investigating it is discovered that all three men’s wives were abducted from the Scottsdale Arizona Resort that Will’s wife had been entertaining them while he took the group hunting. Someone was paid to kill them but decided it would be more profitable to sell them to a Mexican crime lord.
From there Will elicits the help of his best friends, Carter Trace (homeland security and ex special forces), and Dustin (the comic relief of the book) to go into Mexico to rescue his wife and in doing so exposes a sex slave operation that he feels compelled to stop because of his own childhood experiences. This separate plot takes them up against the most notorious and bloody crime lord in Mexico (this was written before El Chappo…) who’s right hand man is Carter Trace’s rival in his Special Forces days.
In the meantime, the FBI continue to investigate who would have tried to kill Alex Wooldridge and the investigation leads them to John Buckhart (Will’s mentor) because of some computer activity from ones of his firm’s office locations.

Author Bio:
Hello, I am Deborah Maragopoulos MN FNP, a board certified family nurse practitioner,
specializing in hormones and natural therapies.As an Intuitive Integrative Nurse Practitioner, I bridge together the science of medicine with the art of healing. For each of my patients, I strive to get to the root of dis-ease.

At the surface, the roots are biochemical. Diving deeper psychological roots can be uncovered,
but the core issues are often spiritual. The soul speaks through the body in the symbolic language of dis-ease.I try to help my patients reach their greatest potential by creating Joyous Transformations—body, mind, and soul.

Being a woman in the midst of the menopausal rollercoaster does not make me an expert but it does give a lot of empathy for your hormonal issues. Being a neuro-immune-endocrine specialist for the past twenty-five years…well, that does contribute to my expertise regarding hormones.

My specialty of natural hormone balancing has grown to encompass the gamut of endocrine disorders—diabetes, thyroid disease, adrenal deficiency, growth hormone deficiency, low metabolism, insomnia, fatigue, infertility, andropause, PMS, digestive disorder, neurological disorders and immune disorders.

Just after I began my holistic health care practice, I got a call from a local gynecological surgeon. “Deborah, I’m sending you all my weird hormone patients.”
I thanked him and asked what was so “weird” about them.
“Well, in medical school,” he answered, “you learn that A leads to B and occasionally C, but I get to Z and still can’t figure out these weird hormone cases.”
“That’s because, Dr G,” I explained, “endocrinology is not an exact science. It’s an art.”
“I’m a surgeon” he sighed. “you’re the artist, you can take care of them.”
That’s when I came up with the term—Hormonally Challenged. Health care providers are as challenged by hormonal issues as their patients.

The time is ripe for me to share my pearls of wisdom with the world.

Do you feel Hormonally Challenged?



The “Good” Girl by Tobie Reynolds  

TheGoodGirlAbout The “Good” Girl by Tobie Reynolds:

Taylor was the fun girl, the life of the party, cute and popular and ran
with the cool kids. Her life turns upside down when her neighbor boy, her
childhood friend, is killed in a car accident. This is a coming of age
story about an all American ‘good girl’ who learns about life, love,
relationships and control as she explores the world of sex.

The girl who had it all. Good family, good friends, went to all the good
parties with all the right people. We live out her story as she dates a *bad
boy*, a *soldier*, a *friend with benefits*, an *adorably
sweet boy with whom she had all the right chemistry with* but at all the
wrong times. Then she meets Hank. If she had known him in high school she
would not even look his way. Hank is the one boy who is everything that
Taylor never knew she wanted. He opened her up to a whole new world – his!
And being cool and going to parties didn’t mean a damn thing to Hank. He
fell for her, the real her.

Author Bio:
This is my true story, but I honestly believe that anyone can relate to this ‘coming of age’ tale about discovering your true self, boys and sexuality. I have been married to the ‘hero’ of this story for 37 wonderful years! We have three grown children and nine Exceptionally Talented grandchildren (lol)! I grew up in a small town, the youngest of six children. I found out later that my mom got pregnant on purpose to try to keep my dad in the marriage….so basically I was a ‘trick that didn’t work’! I was lucky to maintain a good relationship with both parents even though they didn’t live together. As for myself as an adult, I am a sign-language interpreter, a photographer, a writer, a St. Louis Cardinals fan, and a complete idiot over my grandchildren. I fight depression and alcohol addiction. I am in a Sorority and the secretary of our Ladies Council at church. I’ve performed as ‘Edith Anne’ on several occasions and venues. I am a struggling Christian and a bad cook. Not sure what else I can say about myself except that I have mastered the appearance of ‘being fine’ when I’m really not!
