Hold Men Accountable

About Hold Men Accountable

This ebook is an introduction to the insightful work of Anthony Signorelli on the #MeToo topic. As he says in the opening:
“If we are going to end sexual harassment and #MeToo behaviors, we are going to do it by changing the behavior of men. And if we are going to do that, we have to understand what drives men.”
Signorelli’s work is an ongoing attempt to build that understanding so that we can solve the #MeToo problem once and for all.

Blooming Murder

About Blooming Murder

Two communities. One flower competition. So much dead-heading!

Aldermaston’s having a bad day. A falling hanging-basket has killed the town’s mayor, and a second narrowly missed him. His wife wants him to build her new greenhouse in three days, and someone is sending him death threats. This isn’t the quiet life he expected as the new Marquess of Mortiforde.

It’s the annual Borders in Blossom competition, and Mortiforde is battling with Portley Ridge in the final. But this is no parochial flower competition. The mayor’s mishap looks like murder, and there’s another body in the river. Someone desperately wants Portley Ridge to win for the fifteenth successive year.

So when a mysterious group of guerrilla gardeners suddenly carpet bomb Mortiforde with a series of stunning floral delights one night, a chain reaction of floral retaliation ensues.

Can Aldermaston survive long enough to uncover who is trying to kill him, and why? And can he get his wife’s greenhouse built in time?

An African proverb says it takes a village to raise a child; even though this is true, a tremendous amount of your life’s success is determined by your parents. Some fortunate people are born to better educated and better-situated families, therefore putting them at a natural advantage.

Raised in the Washington D.C. foster care system, Kurt Bryant was not one of the fortunate children. On the night of his twenty-first birthday, which should’ve been the best night of his life, a chance encounter with three mysterious people leaves one of Kurt’s friends dead on the icy January concrete.

Kurt wakes up in Richmond, Virginia, covered in blood with no idea how he got there—pursued by the three unknown attackers that want nothing more than to end his life.

Armed with only the dark consciousness that resides in him, Kurt struggles to stay one step ahead of the mysterious figures who now want him dead…

Invasion

About Invasion

The future. It holds all sorts of positive potential…technological advances, increased life expectancy, improvements in society. But there are negative possibilities too, and perhaps the worst of these is the arrival of an alien race…not just anyone, but a hostile one, intent on conquering humankind.

Hugh McDaniel lives in Queens, New York. He is a genius, and he has been struggling to pick one area to focus his life’s work on. His brother and best friend, Travis, is a Marine officer. They get along very well, despite the differences in their lives, but when the aliens suddenly invade and destroy their entire culture, they are forced to struggle in the ruins, at first just to survive, just to find basic food and medicine. But soon, they set their sights on more…on resistance, and on reclaiming their planet from the invaders.

The path is a long one, and almost impossibly difficult, but they begin their journey, finding other survivors and searching for food, medicine…and weapons. The enemy does not remain silent for long, and they start sending missions into the ruins, seeking to gather the humans, to carry them off for whatever purposes they have. Hugh and Travis lead a constant battle, a fight against the enemy that will not end, that cannot end, until only one side remains.

The aliens send more and more robots to New York, and the McDaniels and their followers dig in to resist viciously. But amidst the almost constant fighting, they also mount their own mission, to seek out and explore, to determine what it is the enemy truly wants.

The invaders finally launch a massive attack, large enough to utterly destroy the humans in New York, but Hugh has a forlorn plan, a way to, just maybe, defeat the assault. But while he is frantically preparing his crazed operation, Travis is leading the desperate mission to find the enemy, to discover what they really want. And when he does, it is more terrible than anything he had ever imagined. He tries to return home, to bring the news to everyone that the engagement between humans and aliens is absolutely a fight to the finish, that surrender isn’t even a possibility. But will he even have a home to return to?

Slave

About Slave

Each word that ever appeared has its own meaning, its own power, and its own purpose. But how many meanings can one word have?
Slave. The first thing that comes to mind is a life that does not belong to you. Not your thoughts, not your actions, not your soul. Everything is not yours. You have your master, your sovereign. He and only he can control what is called life. But is it really so? If you are used to serving and this is the only thing that makes sense to you, then is there any meaning in freedom?
We have the story “Slave” in front of us.
A story that began 8000 years ago and has not ended until now. Who I am? Warrior? Slave? Human? A treasure that is greater than the most precious jewels? Is there any point in freedom when you are already free? The author raises questions that you can ponder for a long time. Everyone will have their own answer. Concepts such as freedom and slavery are very close to each other, one develops into the other. There is no visible difference between them. For whom does slavery become freedom, and for whom is freedom is incompatible with life?

A slave named Rabbe is the embodiment of loyalty and strength for his king, Allagar. He is indomitable courage, reliable protection, and hope.
But this time, the execution of any order left a stamp in the heart of the slave.
He was being asked to leave the one who needed to be protected the most, during a battle from which he would not come out alive.
For what? In order to deliver a ring to the beloved king, the last gift, and the last farewell with it. Allagar’s order haunted Rabbe for a long time. Could it be that something was more important than his kind’s fight? How can it be so – his king, his patron, his master will perish, and he will leave and remain alive.
Why? The question is one of the major ones in this story. Why do we need freedom? Why do we need slavery? Why do we have to die? And why do we need to stay alive? Everything has its own story and its own meaning, hidden in the little things sometimes. Hope is not always in a raised sword that cuts everything in its path, or love in a destructive force that leaves nothing behind. Sometimes it is in a small green ring, that got dusty on the journey.
This story is structured in such a way that you become not just an eyewitness to the events that took place, but also something more. You become those who are able to see the most intimate, hidden secrets in the soul of the hero. Part of his thoughts and reflections, disguised even from himself.
So, who are you? Slave? Warrior? Human?

ADELINA by Sara Tucker

About ADELINA by Sara Tucker

Once upon a time, there lived a most wise and benevolent King and his equally gracious Queen. They treated their subjects with utmost kindness, distributing food to the poor in times of need and providing coal to all their subjects during the harsh winter months. They were well loved throughout the entire kingdom, and stories of their good deeds spread far and wide. So, it was that there was general rejoicing when they gave birth to their first child, a daughter they named Adelina, which fittingly means “of noble birth.” Princess Adelina was adorable and grew up to be a model child. Although very beautiful, she was far from vain. She carried herself with poise and developed perfect manners. Her life was one of continual bliss. Until she clock fourteen….

What happens to her at fourteen?

About SALES AND MARKETING PLANS

They say, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” I am pretty sure no one who has ever heard this and felt better afterward. This said, let’s talk about rejection. If you are in sales long enough, you will experience rejection.
You have been rejected, and now you run for your life! This is the best time to ask why, you will learn a lot about your sales process, your buyers, and more. What do you have to lose? You already got rejected. The best part is sometimes rejection is an automatic defense mechanism in the buyer’s mind. When you ask why they don’t even know why which gets them thinking and talking to you- and sometimes they end up saying yes! I swear I have seen this happen more than once when a seller has the nerve to ask why.
Have you ever thought of what to ask for? that might be less of a commitment? Think of alternative options the buyer may find of value. When you offer choices, this creates the opportunity of saying no to this, but yes to that. Try buying my book and see how many times you get a backup plan to succeed. Some examples of a great backup ask are referrals, a less expensive choice, or revisiting the decision to buy in the future. If you ask the reason why the buyer declined, you will know which option is appropriate for your backup plan.
