College Life of a Retired Senior by Yvonne Blackwood

College Life of a Retired Senior by Yvonne Blackwood

“Blackwood’s appealing attitude and resilience keep readers turning pages, rooting for her success. Ultimately, this is an inspiring story of an older woman’s quest for knowledge. A Reader’s Guide is included to spark discussion.”—Blueink Review.
Seven years after she retired from a lengthy career in banking, Yvonne Blackwood surprised her friends and family by returning to school at age sixty-four to pursue an English degree. Her purpose was fueled by four powerful reasons—to add texture to her writing; to ward off dementia; to enhance structure in her life; and to inspire her two young grandsons to continue their education after high school. But as she stepped onto the campus of Canada’s third-largest university, Blackwood had no idea of the hurdles she was about to face.
In a retelling of her journey into a new beginning, Blackwood details how, after enrolling in York University, she struggled to maintain her established lifestyle, attend class with hard-to-connect-with millennials, and face a series of challenges that included two strikes at the university, a campus lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic, and a shocking health diagnosis in her final year of studies. While leaning on the university’s motto—the way must be tried—Blackwood tells an inspiring story of how she persevered and learned to rely on her faith as she bravely conquered her fears and vulnerabilities to eventually achieve her goal.
College Life of a Retired Senior is a true story of a former bank manager’s experience as she returned to college in the third act of life to earn a degree in English.

Giving Chase by JoMarie DeGioia

About Giving Chase by JoMarie DeGioia

One heated night under the stars

A reunion that could change everything

Can he give her a reason to trust in forever?

Or is he pushing for too much too fast?

Chase Harris has always longed for family. His mother ran off when he was a kid and his late father was distant at best. He was still stinging from his divorce when he met the woman of his dreams at his cousin Billy’s wedding in Cypress Corners. Their night together in a rustic tent-cabin gave new meaning to the words “great outdoors.” When Billy asks him to go to Serenity Shores on business six weeks later, he jumps at the chance to to escape the Valentine’s Day celebrations in Cypress and reconnect with the girl he just can’t seem to forget.

Carrie Boyles is never impulsive, but Chase was the perfect balm to her bruised heart that magical night under the stars. She’d been cheated on and dumped, and Chase was sweet and the hottest guy she’d ever met. Now that she’s back to work at the Serenity Spa in the Crescent Resort, she realizes that her one fling will have forever consequences.

She can hardly believe it when Chase shows up at the resort on the very day she discovers she’s pregnant. He stirs up all sorts of feelings, tender tempting feelings, but she doesn’t want to be hurt again.

When Chase sees Carrie, it’s like lightning struck twice. He wants to find out what they can be to each other, and her little surprise just might give him what he’s always wanted.

Will Carrie give Chase the chance to make them a family?

Or will she protect her heart and risk losing any chance at happiness?

From Socratic Insights To Platonic Wits: Your Complete Guide To Socratic Virtue And Platonic Wisdom For A Sharper, Smarter, And Strategic You

About From Socratic Insights To Platonic Wits: Your Complete Guide To Socratic Virtue And Platonic Wisdom For A Sharper, Smarter, And Strategic You

Do you struggle with big questions like what is Truth? Or even smaller ones, like the best way to make a difficult choice? Maybe to go forward, you need to step back… about 2,000 years.

The last 170 years have seen a rapid expansion in human thought and technology.

It’s strange to think there was a time when you couldn’t instantly communicate with anyone.

The answer to any question is just a click away.

Yet, we seem more lost than ever.

The interconnectivity of modern life has left many people feeling overwhelmed.

Today, we wrestle with the consequences of information saturation.

In fact, in the 2019 study “Accelerating Dynamics of Collective Attention,” scientists presented empirical evidence showcasing the escalating trend of our collective attention span’s fragmentation.

Published in Nature Communications, the study provides supporting data on how today’s modern world hurts the quality of information we consume.

But beyond that, it can also lead to insights on modernity’s negative effects on our critical thinking, decision-making, and even empathy.

Greater access hasn’t always translated to material gains for many people.

Worse, we appear to be more divided as a society and public distrust in today’s experts is at an all-time high.

Who do we turn to for answers?

It may be that we need to see our modern problems through an ancient lens.

This deep dive into Socrates and Plato’s lives and teachings presents a fresh perspective and guidance for those striving for success, work-life balance, meaning, and direction.

It’s a compass, offering practical insights inspired by their timeless wisdom, that questions assumptions, engages in meaningful dialogue, and embraces Socratic and Platonic philosophies.

Whether you want to enhance your decision-making skills or are simply on the lookout for some personal growth, this book bundle is all you’ll need to navigate life’s challenges.

This book bundle includes:

The Socratic Wisdom: Think With Clarity, Speak With Precision, And Act With Integrity Through The Timeless Lessons From The Life Of Socrates
Plato’s Wisdom Handbook: Equip Yourself With Timeless Insights That Will Help Guide You In These Modern Times

Here’s just a fraction of the wealth of wisdom you’ll find hidden in each page:

This childlike trait can help you channel your inner philosopher and apply your knowledge to various fields.
Two easy approaches for diving into Plato’s profound body of work based on your reading style and personal interests
Before you invest in new tools or technology, it’s important to take THESE necessary steps to optimize their use and ensure they work to your advantage.
How to set goals based on your ideals and hold true to them… even in a world that doesn’t share your values
How to prevent becoming a laughingstock and efficiently distinguish between constructive criticism and slander.
How to plot your path from self-development amateur to mastery using Plato’s Allegory of the Cave
“Dumbing down” your arguments won’t benefit anyone—do THIS instead (achieving the maximum level of persuasion through your speech).
What Plato believed you needed to be happy… and no, it wasn’t vast amounts of wealth or fame

…and much, much more.

Each passage will pique your interest and inspire you to learn more about Socrates and Plato and live a life you’ve always dreamed of.

The book also provides practical ways to lift the philosophers’ advice off the page and leverage it to greater success as a critical thinker, debater, problem solver, and leader.

Why live in doubt when you can live a life of tranquility and success? Your self-discovery journey begins here—scroll up and click “Add to Cart” now!

About The Adventurers of Jimmy Crikey: Radioactive! by Wallace E Briggs

Jimmy Crikey, the orphaned alien who chose to make his life on Earth, is not magical, but he has unique skills that come in useful when his family of friends in Roombelow need help.
Roombelow is suffering from the aftereffects of the rock-chewing Scarab beatles that undermined the town and the world of the Diamites, and even the water-world of the Aquamites is crumbling.
Unexpectedly, a hole appeared in the centre of the Aquamites’ Emerald Lake. Not only does the lake begin to empty, but thirty Aquamites have been swept away in the flow and end up in the lake belonging to the Tritians.
Rescue cannot come soon enough because the Tritians live in a radioactive environment that poisons the young Aquamites, and Jimmy’s close friend Annison is seriously in trouble.
Jimmy organises for the young Aquamites to be rescued by his technologically advanced home race in the star world of Attalia. Twenty-eight Aquamites were saved, but one was beyond help. To Jimmy’s dismay, Annison refused treatment until all her friends had been treated. As a result, the Attalians could not save her. Annison slipped into a coma from which they could not revive her.
Is Annison doomed to a living death, or can Jimmy call upon aid from a higher authority?

Natural World Restoration by Adebola Adekiitan

About Natural World Restoration by Adebola Adekiitan

This is an inspirational book written under the guidance of God. The end of the ‘wicked and artificial’ world is imminent. The revelation on Natural World represents the way God intended for our existence on earth. The essence of humanity is to enhance the value of nature, not in terms of money, but to live a life that radiates joy and happiness to all. The organization structure of the Natural world has been highlighted. Issues relating to poverty eradication, governance, religion, marriage, child adoption, family wealth, wars, the wellness of the body, mind and spirituality are of great importance to the Natural World. An incomprehensible sense of euphoria accompanies the knowledge of the Natural World. This understanding offers a vision of a joyous world where a quality life is guaranteed, provided that citizens rise to the occasion and adhere to the guidelines presented in this book. I envisage brighter and more civilized societies, free from poverty, enslavement, wars, terrorism, racism, and the many other vices currently plaguing the world.
