Up Through The Thermals

Tyler Birch had always loved vultures. Ever since he was five years old and an older boy moved next door with his family. It did not take long for his neighbor to begin molesting Tyler in the backyard. But when the molesting turned to rape, Vulture came and taught Tyler how to leave his body and fly.

Vulture had been a part of Tyler's life ever since. Even as Tyler grew older and thought he would outgrow the whole vulture memories, Vulture would be flying by or on a fence post nearby. It was what made Tyler feel safe in this world.

Now, 50 years later, after losing his wife to cancer and then winning his battle with the disease, he finds out that cancer has returned, and this time there is no winning scenario.

Tyler has always known what he would do if it ever came down to this, and now is the time to get started.

The Love I Shared With 

The Mother Who Wasn't My Own:

A 2021 COVID-19 Pandemic Memoir 

Experience a Healthy New Life of Acceptance!

As we go through life, we have so many experiences - positive and negative. But what do we do with them?

This book portrays my journey of losing a great mother figure, the pillar of my world, to the Covid- 19 Pandemic. We all have lost someone near and dear to us due to the Covid-19 Pandemic or know people who have. Collectively, as a whole, in most ways, the world is grieving.

It takes time to accept our loss. But it takes understanding and ardent desire to grasp the new instant reality, and make the progress we know we should make. This is what I hope to achieve in sharing my experiences of the tragic loss of The Mother Who Wasn't My Own due to the suddenness of the Covid-19 Pandemic.

It is my belief, that as you read this memoir, you will be able to guide yourself back to a healthy new life of acceptance. And, that you will be able to find all the tools you need in life to aspire ambitiously, achieve relentlessly, and progress continually.

Kamini Mason Bio

Most writers find a story they want to tell. But sometimes, the story finds you.

From her earliest days, Kamini Mason dreamed of being a writer, but a challenging childhood made that seem like a distant and unattainable vision. That all changed the day Kamini met someone who would forever transform her life and purpose; an incredible woman whose spirit needed to be shared with the world, and—as terrifying as Kamini found the idea—she knew she the time had come to find her voice and use it.

The Love I Shared with The Mother Who Wasn’t My Own is Kamini’s debut memoir, with her second book, World’s Orphan to be released in early 2022.

When Kamini isn’t spending time with her daughter or kickboxing, the Boston native is pursuing her writing goals and looking for opportunities to support her local community. A portion of the proceeds from her memoir go towards Family Aid Boston, a charity in Massachusetts. By sharing her stories of grace, courage, and resilience, Kamini hopes that others might find their voices too.

It's a Lonely World: An Indie Author's Journey

     

It's a Lonely World:

An Indie Author's Journey

(Writing Mistakes and How to Avoid Them)

Are you the new guy trying to learn this self-publishing gig? Have you tried to self-publish your book, and then wonder why it failed to gather sales and reviews? Maybe you have a book script, but you don’t know where to start. Do you feel like self-publishing will mark you as an amateur? You and thousands of other Indie-Authors are not alone  

What is an Indie-Author? It is someone, a single individual, who chooses to publish their books without the help or interference of traditional publishing houses. The reasons are numerous for choosing such a path in life, but the core reason is freedom. It is also very hard to get attention from agents or publishing houses; therefore, self-publishing is the only way left to get your book published.

For decades, the stigma of the term "self-published" has meant bad book covers, bad interior formatting, and just a bad story in general. Back in the old days, there were no viable services accessible to the self-publishing author. You were lucky if you knew a guy, who knew another guy, who was an editor. This is no longer the case these days. There are thousands of editors, artists, and promoters out there, in the land of the internet, to help you.

With Amazon publishing thousands of titles per week, there is no reason why you, the Indie-Author, should fail in launching your book with - at the very least - moderate returns on your hard work.  

In this volume, you will learn:

• Why you need an ISBN
• The purpose of a Library Control Number, and why you need one
• Copyright
• The Hero’s Journey, and the importance of structure
• A checklist for your book launch
• What editors look for in a story
• Plagiarism
• Why you need to read

Among these critical keys for the success of your book, you will find plenty of other information regarding my journey into the world of self-publishing. My mistakes are there for you to learn from.

Powerballs

 

Powerballs: Be careful what you wish for.
by Jimmy Clifton

A sudden windfall – and the money to make every dream come true…

With finances and marriage strained to the breaking point, Rose and Henry Ball dream of new lives filled with romance and adventure. Then Fortune takes a hand. Against all odds the couple win a record Powerball lottery. The sudden windfall is the answer to all their prayers. Or not.

Helpless to resist the sirens’ song, the Balls leap feet first into the intoxicating world of the super-rich. Henry drifts into treacherous waters on a mad Russian oligarch’s yacht, while Rose throws caution to the wind and rushes headlong into the arms of a beautiful, dangerous stranger. The Balls are in way over their heads by the time Fortune reveals her capricious nature. A swashbuckling investment banker entrusted with their wealth has rolled the dice and lost. Now, money can’t save Rose from a terrible fate. It’s up to Henry to come to her rescue.

The pleasures and perils of sudden wealth spring to vivid life in the rip-roaring POWERBALLS, where wealth and security are illusions – and only love endures. 

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

JIMMY CLIFTON was reported lost at sea in the early morning hours of June 7, 2020. His crewmates on the fishing boat Miss Rosie Mae remember his prodigious capacity for rum and a gift for spinning yarns that helped captain and crew endure those tedious stretches on the open water. He left a loaded .45, an old photo from better times, and several manuscripts as the only clues to a life well lived.

But the tale doesn't end there.

The task of curating the Jimmy Clifton series and bringing this gifted writer's intriguing novels to light has been left to MICHAEL HAYES, Clifton's only known living kin. As a longtime ad man, Hayes shares Clifton's talents for weaving tall tales and stretching the truth.

This first one’s called POWERBALLS. A cautionary tale if there ever was one about the perils of sudden wealth, and what the almighty dollar can do to a man’s, or woman’s, soul. In the immortal words of Jimmy Clifton: Be careful what you wish for.

We think you’ll like it.

Calm Your Chaotic Mind: 

The Guide to Beating Anxiety

and Grounding Yourself

Tough times are part of life, but the good news is that every situation is only a temporary season. Unfortunately for us, it can sometimes become extremely difficult to escape our negative thoughts after we’ve been through a tough patch. Reliving these experiences in our minds usually causes us to be anxious, gives us the fear of the unknown, and makes us afraid of failure.

With the right tools, however, we can build our resilience so that we can get through hard times without crumbling down.

It becomes possible to overcome any kind of hardship, and also work through any negative feelings that may come afterward.

This book is written for the sole purpose of teaching you how to deal with anxiety. The lessons are taken from years of experience followed by intentional cognitive behavioral therapy to build resilience against fear. They worked for me (still do), and I believe they will also work for you.

Why this book is the best for helping you deal with anxiety:

• Helps you learn how to be calmer and more resilient: It is said that tough times never last, but tough people do. The pages of this book contain the secrets to help you become a mentally tough person. Remaining calm and composed even in the face of difficulty is something we all can learn. Difficult situations will have nothing on you.
• Written from a point of first-hand experience: The tips shared in this book are not compiled from ‘self-help’ handbooks. They are tested and proven over years of trial and error going through situations that caused me to be anxious. These steps are what I use every day to stay on top of any situation and not sink into an abyss of anxiety and despair.
• Great workable tips if you are already feeling anxious: This book has you covered whether you need help getting out of an anxious stage in your life, or want to prevent future anxiety attacks. The steps recommended are practical and work across the board for just about any situation - from losing a job to dealing with a pandemic, and everything in between.
• You can get started NOW! There is no right age to start working on becoming a better you. This book is great for people over 20s. It’s about making those small incremental steps that make your tomorrow better than today.

So why wait? Get a copy today and begin your journey to calming your chaotic mind. It is a journey worth undertaking.

A uniquely original story filled with properly unexpected twists and turns, Winterset Hollow delivers complex, indelible characters and pulse-pounding action as it storms toward an unforgettable climax that will leave you reeling.
