About The Eyes of Courage – An Alternate History

AN AMERICA THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN. What would America look like if it had never been overrun by Europeans? This is what Tom Hathaway, a student pilot from Virginia Beach finds out when he is lured through a stone archway in 1976. He enters a world where America does not exist, and modern English is spoken by no one. For reasons he can’t explain, the technology is 75 years behind, even though he didn’t go back in time.
His new life sends him on an adventure that his friends and family back home may never learn about. Overcoming many challenges, he endears himself to the new world and, after marrying the commander’s beautiful daughter, he re-invents the airplane for the alternate history.
Meanwhile, pirates from the South are a constant menace and threaten to punish the navy of Kameechee in the erstwhile Chesapeake Bay. There is great fear in the land that this will lead to invasion and annihilation. Fortunately, Tom has taught his wife’s young cousin—the girl with the eyes of courage—how to fly. Golden Feather, the first female aviator of the world, joins the Kameechee Air Command, and at the tender age of seventeen, steps up to become the ultimate heroine of the story.

About The Speakeasy Murders

CONTENT WARNING: This book is a work of fiction. However, the author intended to create characters and settings historically accurate to the era it takes place in, the racially tumultuous 1920s. Certain terms used as racial descriptions now considered archaic, outdated or even offensive are used to reflect the past usage by both black and white Americans of that era. Particular themes regarding race, references to certain crimes such as murder and sexual assault are included as part of the fictional plot. The author provides this content description for any potential reader who may consider any of these subject matters or references too sensitive to consider.

It is the roaring 1920s in the city of Chicago. Helen Williams is an astute, but bashful upper class coloured detective. Helen obtained her position through a recommendation from her father after delaying an opportunity to attend Fisk University. Her mother spoke against Helen accepting the job. Williams assumed it because at the time, a young, refined, coloured woman being a detective was ‘unladylike.’ Her go to instrument is an heirloom magnifier she inherited from her hard working and well educated grandfather. Though some of her co-workers take some time to become accustomed to her quirks, she is admired for her detail, accepted and often called upon her colleagues for her insight. Williams has only heard of one other female coloured detective whom she never met. Helen is called in one night to help investigate some peculiar murders in which a field is often used and she now believes is the criminal mastermind’s dumping ground. After a couple of days of discussing similar cases with her colleagues, Helen concludes that the executioner is a serial killer who also orders the killings. These activities stem from an underground nightclub. A group of criminals throw a brick into the station house to warn the officers to keep their investigations to crimes above ground. Lieutenant Henry Johnson orders the station on lockdown. After he lifts the lockdown, Johnson partners Williams with Patterson undercover to further investigate murders at the speakeasy. Stephen introduces Helen to his sister Ruby to help her undergo her transformation. Williams now appears as a flapper with her station house brother, Stephen accompanying her. She is surrounded by the unfamiliar, jazz music, alcoholic beverages, and the wildest dance crazes. Williams reminds herself to focus on the investigation. One night at the speakeasy, Helen is assaulted and nearly raped by a Negro male in one of the bigger rooms to the left of the main floor. His African male accomplice waits at the threshold of the room’s door to make sure the job is done. She was able to maneuver and defend herself until Stephen nearly pummels him. Thaddeus sees the African man run and trips him, upon impact his skull is split on nails of floorboards. Helen runs out. Thaddeus carries her away and brings her to his flat. She is shy and cautious. The Englishman is protective of her. They increase in natural affection towards one another. The Englishman proposes to Helen and she accepts. One night at the speakeasy, Helen discovers a secret stairwell. It would be the gateway which leads her to solve the murders. Helen and Thaddeus will finally have the peace they earned, and the life destined for them to have–with each other.

About Mark Vardy and the School of Ninjas

Twelve-year-old Mark Vardy has always looked up to his policeman father. That’s why he formed his own junior police force. When Mark started arresting real criminals, he received an unexpected invitation to try for a place at The Academy – a select martial arts institution in England’s beautiful New Forest that hones the skills and spirit of a new generation of heroes.

Mark makes interesting new friends at The Academy, as he trains in the mysteries and secrets of the martial arts. But sinister students from the rival Shadowlands School of Ninjas begin plotting a nefarious scheme that will truly test the mettle of Mark and his classmates.

When Mark’s future, dreams and ambitions are at stake, can Mark keep his commitment to doing the right thing? And when the loyalty of friends is tested, which of his fellow Warriors-in-training will remain at his side?

Mark Vardy and the School of Ninjas is a boldly written, fast-paced read for children ages 8-12 that reinforces the value of friendship, self-discipline, and doing the right thing.

When Covid hit the UK, C.J.T. Wilkins had to close their martial arts school. When reality stopped, fiction took over and the idea of Mark Vardy was born. C.J.T. Wilkins imagined a boy who wants to be a police officer like his father with all his heart. When he loses his father, he gets invited to a special boarding school called the Academy which teaches martial arts and raises a generation of Warriors for the forces of good. But where goodness and light exist, so also can wickedness and darkness. Mark’s martial arts Academy comes under attack from the rival Shadowlands School of Ninjas and great adventures ensue across a series of novels.

Being a real-life martial arts instructor with wide knowledge and deep understanding of the martial arts, C.J.T. Wilkins writes about the esoterics and simple spiritual messages of non-violence and creating harmony from physical conflict. The wisdom contained in these books is presented simply for younger readers, but even a black belt adult is likely to find something new and informative hidden amongst the stories.

C.J.T. Wilkins is inspired by C.S. Lewis, Enid Blyton and J.K. Rowling and writes books which may be read by children and adults alike.

About Blueprint: Commercial Loan Workouts

Save your property with this straightforward loan restructuring formula

Nearly two-thirds of businesses that closed during the pandemic will never re-open again. That’s what all the financial predictions say.

But you don’t have to be among that unfortunate group.

Many of these businesses are closing because owners can no longer make the payments on their commercial real estate (CRE). Most CRE owners are facing the following challenges:

· Fall in their net income
· Unable to meet debt obligations
· Defaulting on their loans

Do you think you’re holding the wrong property, in
the wrong location, and that it’s best to just hand over the keys?

Before you make such a life-changing decision, you will want to read Blueprint: Commercial Loan Workouts. Lenders want their money, and who can blame them? If you can’t make their commercial real estate turn a profit, they will find someone who will.

But, truth be told, they don’t really want to do that.

If you can show your lender the path back to profitability, chances are they will be more than willing to give you a second chance. It’s all about executing a loan workout and, with 30 years as a financial consultant and over $11 Billion in transactions, Steven Shipp is ready to share his winning formula for saving your business.

In this concise guide, you will learn about the 3 Ps:

· Plan
· Project
· Propose

You will need to write a new business plan. Steven will tell you the key elements you need to persuade your lender.

You will project your future cash flow and Steven will explain how to speak in a language that your lender will not only understand, but also find convincing.

Finally, you will propose a method for restructuring your loan. Steven highlights all the key requirements needed to win back the lender’s confidence.

So what have you got to lose? If you apply the 3Ps, certainly not the business you’ve worked so hard to build! Blueprint: Commercial Loan Workouts is a simple and easy to guide that shows you how.

About Conquer Logical Fallacies: 28 Nuggets Of Knowledge To Nurture Your Reasoning Skills (Critical Thinking & Logic Mastery)

If you don’t know who to trust, keep making stupid mistakes, and question your own judgement… Then keep reading
Why do employers judge candidates on the first impression they make, even though they know it’s wrong and often misleading?

Why do people smoke, drink to excess, and eat things they know are bad for them?

How do normally intelligent people wind up believing fake news stories?

To find out, let’s take a trip back in time to Victorian England.

A famous story from the Victorian days is that women had to wear corsets. It’s debated how commonplace corsets actually were, but they squeezed a woman’s body like a snake – making the waist look smaller.

Corsets worked – but they were so tight, they caused internal damage to women. They also caused a woman’s lower back to atrophy.

In fact, corsets were so restricting that women often fainted wearing them!

But here’s the kicker…

Fainting from wearing a corset was actually considered to be a good thing! It was thought to be a sign of good breeding.

Or so the story goes.

Historians debate how often corsets were actually used. But they’re a testament to the power of a cognitive fallacy.

Poor reasoning, inability to tell facts from fiction and flawed decision-making cause these kinds of fallacies.

They’re the reason most people never live up to their potential.

Even the smartest people in the world are prone to unconscious bias. A Nature.com study in 2015 (“First results from psychology’s largest reproducibility test”) examined over 100 psychology studies to see if they could be reproduced.

Only around a third of the studies could be replicated! Researchers found a full two-thirds of the studies had been skewed by errors or unconscious biases. They couldn’t be trusted.

It’s not that most people are stupid; they just don’t know how to see biases and fallacies.

That’s why we wrote this book. Inside, you’ll find:

The false beliefs that led to Aztec human sacrifice, and how they’re STILL common today
The ultra common fallacy you’ve probably already been exposed to in your DARE class
The easy-to-follow five basics steps of critical thinking. Apply them and you’ll make every decision with confidence!
Rats spread pestilence and plague – but in India, a “Temple of Rats” was constructed because of this false belief
How to make yourself “dumb” because smarter people are HARDER to teach!
Why you should be skeptical of anyone quoting an authority figure
Historic Islamic banking projects, and what they can teach you about false logic

Can a group of elderly drag queens save a 1950s nightclub from being taken over by the mob?

It’s 1956 and television is stealing Alice’s nightclub audience. Known as Al to everyone in the club scene, she has to try to prevent the mob from taking over her crippled club and turning it into a strip joint.

Her one solace: Juliana, the woman who haunts her memories and fuels her dreams of a brighter future. But the last time Al saw her was the day Juliana’s husband caught them in bed together.

On the brink of losing her love and her livelihood, Al makes a bold decision. She arranges an extravagant production starring aging female impersonators, even though funding the show means going into debt.

Will the show succeed in saving her club and helping her find her way back to Juliana? Or will Al’s big risk result in losing everything? Although the book is the fifth in the series it can read as a standalone.

DO YOU KNOW DOROTHY? is the fifth book in the Juliana series of historical LGBT fiction, but you can also enjoy it as a standalone novel.

About The Girls of Cemetery Road By Twyla Ellis

There was something very dark about Kitrina Katim’s part of the Big Thicket. It had taken Libby, one of Kit’s best friends, in the dark of night when Kit was just a girl. Kit couldn’t imagine leaving her life and he best friends, the Sisterhood of Cemetery Road. But leave them, she did. And she did not return until ten years later when she was forced back to sell her parent’s house.

Nothing had changed, including Mad Maddie McPhearson, who lived down the road, always sitting on her front porch, always trying to make Kit’s life miserable. Miss Maddie, an angry elderly woman, owned Bellewood, an old Plantation house that was crumbling around her. Kit’s attemps at kindsness only fed the old woman’s hatred. But Kit didn’t understand why. Not then anyway.

It was that hatred that awakened dark voices in the thicket and threatening figures that terrified Kit. Was it Libby? Had she come back to them? Or was it something else, something horrifyingly familiar?

Would it be the Sisterhood, or handsome Colton or his brother Jackson, who would come to Kit’s aid when the time came to do battle with the dark forces that were slowly overtaking the Big Thicket?

Author Bio:
Twyla Ellis is a descendent of pioneers who came to Texas in the 1840s, while Texas was still a Republic. She grew up roaming the dense pine forest in the Big Thicket around Livingston, Texas, at the home of her grandmother, great-aunts and uncles, and cousins. Her family was one of the founding families of Livingston, and her great-great-great grandfather was the first city treasurer in the 1840s. She fell in love with the haunting feel of the Thicket; its sounds and sights and smells. Her goal is to make people aware of the mystique and uniqueness of this novel part of Texas, one of only four rainforests in the U.S.

She holds a degree from Howard Payne University and has taught English and Music, and has been a member of NEA, TSTA, and TETA. She was a statewide officer and conference speaker with TETA (Texas English Teachers Association).

She has run her own children’s party and event planning business as well as Remembrances Antiques and Gifts in the Houston area. She is certified in computer graphic design and free-lances in her spare time.

Nothing makes her happier than road trips with her family to interesting old Texas towns. She loves church, antiquing, fossil hunting with her husband and sons (they hunt, she writes), Big Bend, the Alamo (Don’t all Texans?), exploring deserted buildings with a camera, and especially, the Big Thicket of deep East Texas.

If she had to give you a one-sentence bio of herself, she would probably say, “That obnoxiously joyful, hug driven, southern relative that you’d like to hide in the attic, just might be me.”

About Poisoned Jungle By James Ballard

In a powerful human saga, Andy teeters on the chasm of survivor’s guilt, desperate to find equilibrium in his life. Deep down, he wants to live but doesn’t know how. Poisoned Jungle is an intimate glimpse into one veteran’s struggle for meaning after experiencing the despair of war.

Poisoned Jungle speaks to the long psychological tentacles war has on the lives it touches, and the difficulty of breaking free of them. Realizing changes have occurred deep within, Vietnam War medic Andy Parks must reconcile his new reality to establish a life worth living-not an easy task. How will Andy Parks ever dispel the images he brought home with him? He can’t live with them-or outrun them. Even in sleep he finds no rest.

“The napalmed children peered at him, uncomprehending, not understanding what happened, and asked him to fix their burns, alleviate their pain. He tried to explain- such a terrible mistake. No words came out of his mouth.”

Author Bio:
James Ballard intimately knows the subject matter he explores in Poisoned Jungle. His tour as a medic in Vietnam’s Mekong Delta altered the course of his life. War has consequences, and he has not only lived with them, but spent a lifetime examining the impact of Vietnam on his and other veterans’ lives. In that regard, Poisoned Jungle, the author’s first novel, is a work fifty years in the making. In his author’s note, Ballard writes, “The impact of war is not only transformational on the human psyche-but ongoing.” Retired from beekeeping, the author is free to pursue his passion for literature, reading and writing it. He has other works in progress and continues to write every day. For more information visit james-ballard.net.
