About You. The Marketing Professional Next Door. Opportunities. Growth. Money
You. The Marketing Professional Next Door. Opportunities. Growth. Money. is my answer to where marketing has come from, where it is today and where it is likely to go tomorrow.
I wrote The Marketing Professional Next Door to help those who are new to marketing and aspiring to get into the line, make the right decision. Should you take up marketing as a career?
To strengthen your foundation and help you understand the traits that define the best marketers, I have summarised the history of marketing and explained how it stands in the context of other key business functions like finance and sales.
In The Marketing Professional Next Door, I have busted the myth that you need the gift of the gab to excel in marketing. Within marketing, there are many niches that aren’t customer-facing, where people with an analytical mind can do wonders.
I will tell you why marketing is a more accessible field than say, engineering or medicine. I will also tell you how to go about learning marketing.
A mentor can make a significant difference to your prospects. I explain why, and suggest who might make a good mentor.
Which marketing channels have existed since the last century, which new channels have emerged and gained popularity alongside the internet and how has the evolution of digital impacted the evolution of marketing?
With the rise of satellite internet, global apps and internet users, the global digital ecosystem is changing before countries are able to bring in any digital regulation. Digital marketing—founded in what I call digital snooping—has only strengthened after Covid-19.
In fact, the rise of digital noise and information overload has made it very challenging to distill the information needed to take a call on marketing as a career. A course that may seem like the stepping stone to a promising bright career could turn out to be a white elephant. I will help you figure out if a career in marketing is worth your while and how to prepare for it, in an arena where the game changes every so often.
A few interview smashing tips to help you land a job despite the competition, and successfully negotiate your way through the corporate maze will follow. Finally, I will share my vision for marketing to help you assess what kind of jobs may come up five years from now.
When you step into new territory it helps to hear from those who’ve been there, done that, and made it good. There are plenty of tomes on marketing out there, I know. So how is The Marketing Professional Next Door different? I offer you a pithy narrative based on my millennial perspective and cross-country experience straddling the marketing department of corporations as well as running a business. Marketing is all I have been doing since I graduated.
You may be…
A high school student considering what line to get into,
A graduate looking to identify skills you can quickly acquire to land yourself a job,
A junior or middle management executive wondering if a career switch to marketing would be the right move,
An entrepreneur wanting to know the basics of marketing to grow your own business,
Someone looking for an interesting job that keeps you on your toes, or
A person wanting to know if you can make good money in marketing,
… The Marketing Professional Next Door will answer all these questions and much more.

About DNA Demons N Angels
It’s weird how every woman reacts differently. How each pregnancy differs.
Mine is definitely unique.
My sense of smell became stronger, picking up the faintest odors, and my stomach was in constant turmoil. Those were the first signs.
And then I started eating. And eating. If I don’t, I get a migraine and people’s faces become blurry. Electronics seem to malfunction in my presence. And the nightmares—they don’t stop.
Something is changing my body.
Something that should have never happened.
Something that my husband and I had prevented from happening.
Something people say is miraculous.
The bigger I get, the more frequently I encounter people who become possessed. And the more often I wind up questioning if I am carrying a miracle baby.
The closer I get to the due date, the more I love this child and the more confident I am that I will protect my baby from anything.
Even its fate.

About Lean Season: Contemporary Tales of Primordial Terror
When a gang of rednecks kills the mate of a local sea legend … the result is bloody terror.
From Lean Season:
“Shut up, ” said Handlebar. He wiped his lip. “Listen.”
The floorboards were shifting beneath their feet.
Carl looked around. “What is it?”
“Is it under the dock?” said Ned.
Handlebar ignored them, listening. The planks of the pier flexed and fell like piano keys.
Lonny retreated still further. “Maybe we should get back inside.”
“You gonna swim for it?” said Stanley. “We’re cut off.”
Lonny looked at the cedar pole laying across the deck, and the downed lines which popped and frizzled. His lower lip started to tremble.
Suddenly, starting at the apex of the dock, the floorboards jumped—rifling and breaking and splintering in a line. The men clambered off Chin, scattering as something split the dock up the middle, like a torpedo. Chin turned, saw a wave of busting boards rushing at him. He scrambled to his feet and dove out of the way, landed at the edge where he saw a dark shape sweep past just below the surface. A tail—long as the first creature’s entire body.
Everything stopped, and there was a silence.
“Stay alert,” shouted Chin. He scrambled away from the edge. “It hasn’t gone. It’s still under the dock.”
Everyone looked at each other as wood creaked and water lapped. Even Handlebar seemed frightened and disheveled.
“Screw this shit, man,” said Lonny. He backed toward the cafe, toward the spitting electrical cables. His eyes were bugged out and his flesh had gone white as bird shit. He dropped his rifle.
Handlebar stared at his own boots, which were soaked in blood. He seemed to be having some sort of internal crisis. He reached up with a trembling hand and twisted his mustache repeatedly. He came out of it suddenly and looked at Lonny.
“Hey. Kid. Listen.” He walked toward him, changing clips. “You’re taking all this too seriously. It’s toying with us, that’s all.”
He held out his shotgun to him. “Here. The goo—Chin—he’s right. It’s still beneath the dock. Probably scared. Why don’t you do the honors?”
Lonny hesitated, trembling. “Y-you mean it’s just trying to scare us?”
Handlebar tweaked his nose. “That’s right.”
The fire returned to the young man’s eyes—almost. He looked around the shattered dock, at the riddled corpse and the oily, bloody water, at the spitting power lines and the dead lights, the peeling boardwalk on the shore.
He shook his head. “No, it’s not. It—it doesn’t pretend, like you. It’s gonna kill us, that’s all.” He stepped closer. “Can’t you see that? You posing hillbilly? The spill’s given it a—a lean season. It’s sick, and it’ s hungry, and …”
He glanced at the corpse. “We probably just killed its mate.”

About Flashback: 28th Anniversary Edition
A funny thing happened to Roger and Savanna Aldiss on the Interstate. They hit a dinosaur. But that’s nothing compared to what awaits them down the road … for something is at work to reverse time itself, something which makes the clouds boil, glowing with strange lights, and ancient trees to appear out of nowhere. Something against which Roger, Savanna, and a handful of others will make their final stand.
From Flashback:
The cop was just standing there, staring at the trees. And staring at the rex, too—though he clearly didn’t know it.
“My God,” Savanna pleaded. “You can’t just let him be ripped to pieces …”
Omar raised an eyebrow. “No?” He slid off the table and approached her. “And why not?”
She hesitated. His face hovered in her own like some foam-latex Halloween mask—Uncle Pervis, perhaps, or Baby Stinky. “You, you just can’t,” she stammered.
He cocked his head to one side and smiled broadly, wickedly. “You ever been to prison, sugar-muffin?”
His teeth seemed covered with a yellow, pussy substance which reminded Savanna of that gummy liquid SPAM was packed in.
She shook her head.
“That’s too bad …. they’d like you there.” He stepped closer and Savanna felt his coat pressing against her breasts, the reek of liquor-sweat and pitted-out leather seeming to radiate off him in waves. “You ever heard stories about what goes on inside?”
Again, she shook her head. The glass of the window was cold against her back, as if it had frosted on the inside.
“They stick you in a little room to rot,” he said, and with the word rot came an invisible cloud of stale barley which made her eyes water and her throat want to close in on itself. “But the trick is, they don’t put you in there alone. No, they always put you in there with some shifty-eyed S.O.B. who’s crazier even then you are …” His voice had become a quavering hiss, like sparks running along a fuse. “They put you in there with some poetry-writing faggot, or some jittering crackpot who’s so hard-up for a cigarette he picks butts out of the toilet, or some darkie …”
He glanced sidelong at the cashier and menaced him with molten eyes, but the stout black man was unmoved. “… who’s built like Mike Tyson and wants you to be his joy-boy. And if that’s what he wants, that’s what he’ll get … because you’re not going anywhere. And don’t think the guards will help you, sister. Because they won’t. They’ll just walk right by whistling and swinging their keys. You’re helpless, just like you’re helpless now …”

About Forbidden Secrets: Egypt, The Lost Knowledge by M.G. Hawking, Jenna Wolfe Ph.D., and Amber Chellings
Free on Amazon October 13th thru October 17th. Explore the Lost Knowledge of the Antediluvian Civilization of Ancient Egypt. Thousands of years ago a small Neolithic community in the region of the lower Nile abruptly rose to create the most majestic and enduring civilization of history. The rise of Ancient Egypt to a stunningly advanced state of culture lasting thousands of years demonstrates advancements that have long eluded explanation.
“Ancient Egypt presents us with an impenetrable mystery. How may we explain a Neolithic desert people spawning the most majestic civilization of history? Their rapid ascension from a primitive state to a previously unapproached zenith of technology and culture demonstrates advancements that utterly elude explanation. Many of their artistic and architectural productions are unequalled to this day. What could possibly explain vast technical knowledge and sophistication appearing so fully-formed so suddenly?” —Legendary Egyptologist Flinders Petrie, Archaeological Journal (1911)
What long lost knowledge underlies the unprecedented technology, artistic creations, and cultural sophistication of Ancient Egypt? The voluminous lore of ancient Egyptian tradition relates that in the antediluvian time of zp tpj (generally transcribed as Zep Tepi), the “first occasion” or “first time,” mysterious, highly enlightened “gods” appeared in Egypt, bearing previously unknown technology and knowledge. The texts inscribed on the walls of the Temple of Edfu in Upper Egypt contain explicit descriptions of the time of Zep Tepi and the coming of the “bringers of knowledge,” said to have occurred, the texts tell us, circa 18,000 B.C.
In the Sahara Desert of southern Egypt is an area known as Nabta Playa. Here an ancient stone calendar circle, along with 25 other megalithic structures, was identified by archaeologist Fred Wendorf in 1998. According to an extensive analysis by NASA astrophysicist Thomas Brophy and his team, three stones inside the Nabta calendar circle represent the belt of Orion, just as the three pyramids of Giza align to represent that same constellation. The stones of the Nabta Playa’s stone calendar circle and the corresponding stars in the sky aligned on summer solstice nights as they appeared circa 16,500 B.C. Based on these and other analyses, Brophy’s team concluded that the ancient builders of Nabta Playa possessed highly sophisticated astronomical knowledge, the type of knowledge we associate with advanced civilization.
Plato (c. 428-348 B.C.) writes of Egyptian masters presenting him with historical records extending back some 18,000 years: “Egypt has recorded and kept eternally the wisdom of the ancient ages, all coming from time immemorial when gods governed the earth in the dawn of civilization.” Herodotus tells us that when Hecataeus of Miletus (550-476 BC) boasted to the Egyptian priests that he could trace his ancestry through fifteen centuries, they quietly showed him, in a hidden sanctuary deep under the sands, the statutes of 345 high priests, each the son of the preceding, making 345 generations since their “gods” had appeared in the Nile valley and marking a timeline extending back one-hundred-eighty centuries.
This ancient evidence reveals that a sophisticated Egyptian civilization existed long prior to the last glacial period, and most importantly prior to the ‘Younger Dryas Boundary’ cataclysmic event as well. The ‘YDB’ event, which occurred circa 10,770 B.C., is thought to have been caused by the impacts or air-bursts of several comets, resulting in massive shockwaves and firestorms sweeping across continents, initiating a 1200 year-long epoch of terminal environmental change and catastrophic faunal extinction, effectively wiping all but traces of early civilizations from the historical record.
This book reveals and fully explores the forbidden secrets and profound lost knowledge of a magnificent civilization, long concealed in myth and legend. An important read for anyone seeking greater personal knowledge and power. 2021 Edition, e-reader page count 302 (estimated, actual count varies with the reading device used).

About LandLady Love
“Age is not a barrier…Many a good tune is played on old fiddles”
I can still remember the first time I found out what it was to be a man. I guess I was about eighteen at the time and living in a rented room somewhere in the city. My landlady, whom I had always referred to as Mrs. McLaren, had been kind enough to take me in at a reasonable rent when she found out that I was struggling through university. That was eighteen months ago.
My studies had kept me from pursuing the pleasures of female flesh so I was still a virgin even though I had reached my majority. The only ‘loving’ I had known since I was old enough to get an erection was by wanking and that
seemed pleasurable enough to get me by up until now.
It was a Saturday and the big exams had come and gone leaving me with nothing to do except wait for the Monday morning plane to take me home for the end of semester break. I had bought myself the latest copy of a popular ‘girly’ magazine and was now settled on my bed, dressed only in my jocks, with the magazine open to the centerfold. The girl was posed presenting her buttocks at the camera, her legs spread and her face turned to pout from the page. Two huge tits were pointed down at the bed and her cunt gaped out at me inviting me in. In my imagination I joined her on the rumpled bed, dreaming of how that sweet, wet cunt would taste if I could only get my mouth onto it. It didn’t take long for my right hand to find the huge erection that burst from my jocks and I began slowly wanking as I
dreamed of wild sex with the Goddess in that picture.
I don’t know why Mrs McLaren came into my room…..
