Everyone Gets the Blues, But Not Everyone Gets the Goldy’s Baby Socks Blues

 Judy Snider launches Goldy’s Baby Socks jazz video on YouTube..

Children’s book author, Judy Snider, wanted to put a serious author interview on her website for her children’s picture book, Goldy’s Baby Socks, but the urge to be zany took over.  Since the humorous and heartwarming book tells about a family that adopts a cat and the fun and sleepless nights that follow, Snider decided to tell the story of the book in a blues song, dressed up as an orange “jazz cat.” 

Snider hoped that the video clip would make people laugh as well as learn about her book.  Besides her website, it has been posted on YouTube, and the favorable comments certainly not given Snider the blues. 

The book is self-published in Spanish last Fall.  In the meantime, Snider is hoping her website address is spread around the world.

Published Book Features President-Elect Obama as the Choice of the World

Filed Under (Autobiography) by Gianna on 05-11-2009

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

A self-published book author publishes an analysis of different worldwide undertakings and statistics pointing to the fact that President Obama is not only president of the US, but of the world.

Philip Ephraim publishes how the world outside the United States influenced the results of the 2008 American elections in his self-published book ‘Barack Obama, The Audacity of Being a Global President’.

The book author presents statistical analysis and worldwide events that point to the fact that big and small countries all over the world, enemies of America included, want Obama to emerge as the 44th president of the United States.

Ephraim explains how world economic borders are collapsing, making more and more countries allied with the US.  The author also underscores that people all over the world are hopeful that Obama will make diplomacy a priority, double foreign assistance, build healthy and educated communities, develop markets and reduce poverty.

Philip Ephraim quotes President-elect Barack Obama in his victory speech: “And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores, from parliaments and palaces, to those who are huddled around radios in the forgotten corners of the world, our stories are singular, but our destiny is shared, and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand. To those who would tear the world down: We will defeat you. To those who seek peace and security: We support you.”

Obama is not only “president of the country, but of the world,” Philip Ephraim says.  “The world likes Obama and wanted him to win.”

The book author owns Innovative Ventures Group in Philadelphia.  He was formerly a Senior Librarian at the University of Calabar and is a consultant to the African Development Bank and Bobel International and Associate Ltd.

Ephraim has written extensively in international journals.  He is also the author of Barack Obama, The Audacity of Inspiring the World.  His books are published by Xlibris.

R. Winn Henderson shares all the program’s messages in Share Your Mission, Vol 4

Filed Under (1) by Gianna on 19-10-2009

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

A popular radio talk show program turned into book form in this Xlibris release

Based on the international radio talk show Share Your Mission, this Xlibris release was heavily inspired by the people who bring the show to life. A weekly program dedicated to helping out lost souls and individuals, Share Your Mission began in 1998 as a method of promoting personal happiness and success as an outreach of The Recovery Group which the author himself is the founder.

Self-published author Dr. Henderson claims that the most effective way to gain knowledge and understanding is by learning through the experiences of other people. Sharing Your Mission asks four important questions to the individual such as Who Am I, Where Did I Come From, What Am I Doing Here and Where Am I Going When I’m Done. Dr. Herderson believes that a person can find his own mission through these four questions so that he, too, can be truly happy and successful.

Sharing Your Mission relies heavily on the story of the guests who participated in the show. Guests who shared their messages in this book voiced out diverse thoughts and challenging roles they demonstrate to society. These guests are people who are willing to be of service to others and Dr. Henderson plays heavy emphasis on that philosophy.

Dr. Winn Henderson, a medical doctor with over twenty years of clinical experience, co-authors this inspirational book about the four questions with answers that apply to your personal achievement.

Who else can write a book on how to stop smoking than a smoker himself? Dr. Terrell Leeke has been writing his book for ten years before he self-published it. He admits to his own tobacco addiction and pledges to help people quit thru writing 100 Ways to Quit Smoking.

When a child has insufficient social skills during childhood and adolescence, it does not mean there is something wrong with him.

Self-published author Viviane Gaines has been studying Behavior Science and Special Education who said that when a child has developmental disorders such as neurological diseases, it would destroy her physically and mentally.

This Xlibris release offers exercises that fight against the social demons that one encounters everyday.

The ultimate goal is to be socially successful in any environment. When incarceration is such a huge setback in today’s society, it is right that one pays attention to his behavior in society by applying the skills he has learned from this book.

Self Published Author Gives Practical Tips on Preventing Spread of Viral Diseases

Filed Under (Health) by Gianna on 23-09-2009

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , , , ,

With most of the world getting wary of the swine flu outbreak, one can just wonder if it is only a matter of time before they too can be infected by the H1N1 strain of the swine influenza virus.

Recent reports have indicated that locations as remote as China, Mexico, Colombia and New Zealand have either had confirmed cases of the swine flu or are already affected by the looming threat of the virus. In the United States, cases of H1N1 flu virus outbreaks have been reported in the state of Wisconsin, while the state of Minnesota is awaiting for confirmation of suspected cases.


This is not the first time an influenza scare has taken a grip of global awareness. A few years back, the world faced the threat posed by the avian influenza virus or the H5N1 flu strain. In much the same way, the swine flu has put people in a state of awareness and fear of catching the virus. However, the same preventive measures used against the avian flu can be used in preventing the spread of H1N1 virus.

Aside from the obvious use of vaccines against the swine flu virus, health experts have recommended practical methods such as the washing of hands with soap and water in preventing the spread of the virus.

In the book ‘Health Lifelong Project: With Healthy Recipes, Beauty Secrets, and More’, author Marina Marcetic presents several preventative measures that solves health problems with natural cures. She shares her knowledge of natural products and cures that were collected from her education and experiences around the world.

Marcetic suggests that “eating right and using alternatives, such as natural cures, does not have to be expensive or complicated. Whether we realize it or not, most of us have kitchen stocked with food. All we have to do is prepare and eat them properly to protect ourselves from illnesses and give our body more energy and a healthy glow.”

Although the H1N1 strain vaccine is still in development, boosting the human immune system through natural and alternative methods can help fight the swine flu virus or any other diseases that may threaten the human body.

The book author adds that, “vitamin supplements are certainly useful. However, in this book I will show you a simple, healthful, time-tested ways to protect yourselves from diseases and nourish your body to stay fit and beautiful.”

Health Lifelong Project is a self-published book, which Marcetic hopes will enable the readers to discover some alternatives, natural practices, and ideas to enrich their own life and overall health. Whether preparing preventive measures against the swine flu or just simply boosting one’s health, this book is a practical guide in finding inexpensive and natural ways to ward off viruses and diseases.

Health Lifelong Project is published by Xlibris.

Xlibris author gives a spiritual guide on India’s cultural activity

Filed Under (Travel) by Gianna on 15-09-2009

SUMMARY
21 Days in India is a journal from self-published author who is convinced that that there is more to India that meets the eye

BODY

When tourists travel on foreign lands, they arm themselves with maps of the city and hope to help the economy with their retail therapy. It is quite different with David Carducci’s case because bringing home souvenirs was not the first thing that came to his mind when he travelled to India.

David Carducci self-published his book and fashioned it after the journal entries he made of his experiences for twenty-one days with the beautiful continent. His fascination with the ancient teachings of the Indian spiritual masters and his friendship with a wise Indian sage Surendra Vishwas enlightened his whole grasp of the Indian culture. Revelations of his social commentaries are patented in 21 Days in India and episodes of his adventures explain supernatural, paranormal and the unknown events that can only transpire in the continent.

“Of course, I did not know it at the time, because God and the Truth (one and the same as Gandhi would say), works in mysterious ways,” claimed self-published author of his new findings. Despite the cultural war now between India and Pakistan, David Carducci documented in his self-published book that India is capable of sharing spiritual enlightenment and cosmic energy that can perhaps alleviate all the bad activity the countries are constantly balling at each other.

Surendra Vishwas said, “You should simply spend 24 minutes of each 24 hour day in quiet meditation. You cannot achieve it by anything I say to you or anything that you read. Speeches and books are just words. It takes practice to achieve the goal.” David Carducci spent 21 Days in India to accomplish such goal.
