- Mood Boosting Foods with Mood Boosting Recipes - 2012-10-14 03:15:00-04
When I got into my mid 30's I noticed that I lost a lot of my energy and zest. I was moody, tired and not really enjoying life that much. Little did I know, it had a LOT to do with what I was eating. Once I discovered that you really are what you eat, I started a lifelong journey in studying different foods, herbs and spices and how they could improve your health. My books are a culmination of what I have learned through study as well as trial and error. I have written them for you in the hopes that you, too, can improve your health and enjoy life more simply by eating delicious and healthy food!

Following graduation Happy enrolled in the Canadian Forces as a pilot and achieved his jet wings in 1995. After jet wings graduation in 1995 Happy served his first tour as a flight instructor on the Tutor jet, the same jet he later flew as a Snowbird pilot. In 1999 he was selected for fighter pilot training, where through hard work and dedication again graduated among the top in his class, and served as a CF-18 Hornet fighter pilot in Cold Lake, Alberta until he was selected to the Snowbird team in the fall of 2006.

- Zero Balance by Ashley Fontainne - 2012-10-14 03:17:33-04
International bestselling author Ashley Fontainne is an avid reader of mostly the classics. Ashley became a fan of the written word in her youth, starting with the Nancy Drew mystery series. Stories that immerse the reader deep into the human psyche and the monsters that lurk within us are her favorite reads. Her muse for penning this series was The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas. The revenge on all those who hurt and betrayed Edmond Dantes and the incredible rollercoaster ride his journey takes you on intrigued her. Ashley's love for this book is what sparked her desire to write her debut novel, Accountable to None, the first book in the trilogy, Eviscerating the Snake. With a modern setting to the tale, Ashley delves into just what lengths a person is willing to go when they seek personal justice for heinous acts perpetrated upon them. The second novel in the series, Zero Balance focuses on the cost and reciprocal cycle that obtaining revenge has on the seeker. For once the cycle starts, where does it end? How far will the tendrils of revenge expand? Adjusting Journal Entries answered that question: far and wide. Born and raised in California, Ashley now calls Arkansas home with her husband and four children. She also enjoys writing poetry and short stories and recently published Ramblings of a Mad Southern Woman: A Collection of Short Stories and Poetry on Life, Love, Loss and Longing, which is available on Amazon. Ashley is also a supporter of the Joyful Heart Foundation that assists victims of violent crime seek help and find healing, and donates 10% of all book sales yearly to the cause.

- 54 Ways To Save Money On Gas! - 2012-10-14 13:54:13-04
I'm Dan Eitreim and I worked as a professional photographer running my own photo studio for over 20 years. I've never apprenticed or worked for any other photographers. Because of this, I've had to learn and develop my photography skills on my own. My first attempts were dismal to say the least...so I studied, practiced and developed my photo skills and along the way I not only learned how to put the "wow" into my photos, but I've also learned how to teach others to do the same! To that end I've created a 23 volume series of photo training lessons that I've titled: "On Target Photo Training". I worked out of my home did my photo session on location - which means that I spent most of the day in my car! With the economy being what it is, gas expense quickly became a major concern. I started doing a lot of research on ways to save money at the gas pumps and the e-book: "54 Ways To Save Money On Gas" was born. I enjoy creating e-books and expect to be developing more!

- 30 Scrumptious & Nutritious Vegetarian Dinner Recipes (vol 3) - 2012-10-14 18:42:27-04
Hi everyone! Im Lisa M.K, I am currently 26 years old and I have been a vegetarian and writer my whole life. Why vegetarian? Well to be completely honest with you, it all comes down to the fact that myself and my body does not need meat at all! You can cook the same amount of recipes, if not more, without meat! My mother was a vegetarian since she was a child, however on the other hand, my father was always a meat eater! This was sometimes a bit hard to cope with in the kitchen at times, nonetheless, I got on with it and kept on lapping up all the goodness! Why did I start writing recipe books? Well it all began when I was searching for good vegetarian recipe books, but just couldn't find one that actually offered me a diversity in food! Just because I'm a vegetarian doesn't mean I do not like a pile of american pancakes! So writing has now led me in doing a master collection of Vegetarian Recipes: - 30 Scrumptious & Nutritious Vegetarian Breakfast Recipes Vol.1 - 30 Scrumptious & Nutritious Vegetarian Lunch Recipes Vol.2 - 30 Scrumptious & Nutritious Vegetarian Dinner Recipes Vol.3 - 90 Scrumptious & Nutritious Vegetarian Recipes (Master Collection) I hope those who purchase my books enjoy the recipes within them! :-)

- The Long Thorn by Charles Steed - 2012-10-14 18:45:15-04
I used to say that my high school graduation party lasted six years. That was supposed to be a clever way of saying I lacked direction early on in life. So in 1978 I joined the Navy and became a medic. Within a few months I found myself being responsible for lots of people’s lives. After the Navy I stayed in healthcare working various jobs until I decided to become an RN. I worked nearly 15 years in one or another healthcare role. In the 1990s I switched careers and became a real estate investor. Within four years my wife at the time and me closed on nearly 60 transactions. I felt it was again time for a change so I wrote a book about my real estate investing titled, The Streetsmart Homebuyer – Investor’s Secrets Anyone Can Use To Buy A Home. Two more nonfiction books followed, then a short collection of inspirational stories titled, The Legend Of Kokobono. I took some time away from writing earlier in the new century and have recently returned with a couple of new novels, a novella and several short stories.

- Think About Love by Vanessa Grant - 2012-10-14 21:27:45-04
Vanessa Grant's love affair with writing fiction began during a protracted illness at the age of 12 when she decided to write a novel of her own, sitting up in bed using the typewriter she'd been given for her birthday. Not a computer, not an electric typewriter, but a then-state-of-the-art manual typewriter. The story, a romance, ground to a halt on page 50 but Vanessa never forgot the excitement of bringing her own characters to life. She later wrote three unpublished novels, developing her skills as a writer while living on a remote lighthouse during what she thinks of as her baby-making, basket weaving, beach-walking days. In 1985 Vanessa's novel Pacific Disturbance was published in hardcover by Mills and Boon. She now has over 10 million books sold and has been translated into 15 languages. She also has written what one critic described as, "by far the best writing book I've ever read." Writing Romance, published by Self Counsel Press, won the Under the Covers Best Writing Book Award, and is currently in its third edition. Over the years her love of storytelling and her curiosity about people led Vanessa to study psychology, volunteer on a crisis line, complete individual and relationship counselor training, volunteer as a peer counselor for a family life organization, and tell stories about life, love, and secrets. Vanessa is also an accountant, a university professor, a publisher of educational materials and eBooks, and a popular international speaker with considerable media experience. Vanessa and her husband have lived on an island in the Pacific Northwest since returning from a two year sailing cruise to Mexico some years ago. Vanessa loves hearing from readers and from other writers.
- Brightside by Mark Tullius - 2012-10-14 21:28:09-04
I'm a father and a husband, a brother and a son. I'm an Ivy League grad who worked in a warehouse, an MMA fighter with too many defeats. I'm the bouncer and bodyguard, the drunk guy in the fight. The jailer and the jailed, the guilty and innocent. I'm a writer shaped by influences, too many to count. I grew up on King and Koontz while force-fed the Bible. I narrate Dr. Seuss and Disney nearly every night. Like you, I've seen things I wished I hadn't, heard some truths I won't forget. Writing is my heavy bag, the sparring partner that doesn't punch back. It's where I shed my armor and cast off the blindfold, take a look at myself and the world around me. The writing takes me wherever it wants. Dark alley or dinner table, classroom or morgue. I go along for the ride and try to capture the moment, show life like it is and let you be the judge.
