About The Kid on the Green Bike By Wali Mailatyar:

Release Day – June 25th!!

A Gripping True Story of Escapes, Rescues, and Fighting for the American Dream

One Man’s Journey from Afghan Immigrant to Candidate for Governor of Arizona

Wali Mailatyar was 15 years old, and he had a choice to make. Either get conscripted to fight in the bloody civil war between the communists and the mujahedeen devastating his country or leave his home and family and possibly never see them again.

Wali ended up escaping his homeland and embarking on a long journey that would eventually lead him to stand for election in Arizona as a candidate for governor.

This book tells how Wali fought against the odds to escape the horrors of war engulfing his homeland and to find the American Dream.

The Kid on the Green Bike is more than just another immigrant story—it’s part action thriller and part family drama.

Filled with cinematic scenes and heartbreaking stories of love and loss, this book shows all of us that the American Dream is still very much alive—if you’re willing to fight for it.

If you love stories about underdogs beating to odds, the triumph of love, or the importance of family, this book is for you.

Just like coming to the United States for the first time changed the course of Wali’s life, this book will change the way you see the world and America’s role in making it a better place.

Conversations with Ayahuasca by Ol Serbon

About Featured Book: Conversations with Ayahuasca by Ol Serbon

Promotional sale: E-book for $0.99. Dates: June 21st – July 26th

Description:
I wasn’t planning on becoming an author, but a writing spell suddenly kicked in during an ayahuasca ceremony that took place at one of the spiritual retreat centers in the Sacred Valley, Peru, in 2019.
Voice: “Write this!”
Me (under the influence of ayahuasca): “Write what?”
Voice: “Start writing whatever you are experiencing now…”
Me (uncomfortable since I am taking to a voice in my own head): “But … it is impossible to describe in words what I am experiencing now!”
Voice: “Stop whining and start writing.”

What you just have read is an excerpt from one of a series of conversations I had with a guide named Aya that began during my last ayahuasca ceremony at the retreat center in the Sacred Valley and which continued for several months after I came back home from Peru.

Upon my return, a strange story started flowing through me that I recorded on paper. At first, it seemed almost like a dream. The writing turned into a mental and emotional purge, which continued until there was nothing else for me to say. Once it was over, I knew that it was the end of that story. As the result, I felt transformed. I had eliminated the need to blame others for my misfortunes or to see myself as a victim of circumstance. In the process, I learned that we are the masters of our own reality. We create it one thought at a time.

My book, Conversations with Ayahuasca, is a unique blend of a memoir and ayahuasca-induced visionary experiences that began with my rendezvous with la Madre Ayahuasca and resulted not only in a complete transformation of my everyday life, but also in developing an ability to tap into what seemed to me as a different reality system, one where I perceived myself as a Lemurian girl. If this perception of me being in a different body in a different time-space reality was indeed a window into a past incarnation in Lemuria or if it was just a figment of my imagination is for you to decide.

In brief, this book is about the transformation of my perception of reality, which took place over a four-year period as a result of partaking in ayahuasca ceremonies and subsequently integrating what I learned into the way I lead my daily life with greater ease, joy, and peace of mind.

Victims Make the Best Birdhouses By Larry L. Franklin

About Victims Make the Best Birdhouses By Larry L. Franklin:

Larry L. Franklin believes he should have know on that summer day in 1950 that this was not normal. But he was the youngest and smallest of the four boys in a place where the unspeakable was normal. In 1992, when Franklin turned fifty, a chance conversation with his mother opened the door to repressed memories of physical and sexual abuse. The worst left him hugging the bathroom stool throughout the night. As his mind began to crumble, a piece here, a piece there, he learned that the trips to the barn were far from normal. Separating fact from fiction was like finding a gmat in the forest.

Franklin’s memoir is a blueprint for moving from victim to a survivor; a place where injured souls can flourish when light is allowed to shine. “Victims Make the Best Birdhouses” is an emotion-packed story designed to allow the curious reader to visit a different world.

Prophecies of a Himalayan Sage, The Journals of Explorer M.G. Hawking

About Prophecies of a Himalayan Sage, The Journals of Explorer M.G. Hawking:

Free on Amazon June 6th thru June 10th. Explore the extraordinary wisdom and prophetic Insights of a true Himalayan Sage. Every thinking person recognizes that humanity is in crisis, ecologically, spiritually, and very clearly politically; in fact, any way you look at it. Theology has crumbled and political theory collapsed; technology complicates life and war; “critical race theory” and media corruption subvert truth to enthrone ignorance; religious fanaticism terrorizes citizens, inflames the world, and imperils every rational nation on our planet.
Radicalism is not alone in imperiling democracy worldwide. A spreading plague of misinformation gives rise to a corollary to Gresham’s Law (“bad money drives out good”)—misinformation pushes aside knowledge. Democracy is the most difficult of all forms of government since it requires an educated voting populace and the widest spread of undistorted information. We must not forgot to keep ourselves truthfully informed if we are to keep ourselves free and sovereign.
“At every step history teaches us how fragile and superficial a structure civilization is, and how precariously it is poised upon the apex of a never extinct volcano of oppressed barbarism, superstition, and ignorance. Modern civilization is a thin veneer superimposed upon the Middle Ages, which always remain.”
Why is this happening? And why at this point in our civilization? Are there answers to these questions?
On an extended trek in the remote Himalayas, explorer M.G. Hawking chanced on an extraordinary opportunity. A series of adventures led him to an ancient Oracle Temple where he encountered a true Himalayan Sage. The author’s discussions with the savant covered a wide range of subjects, revealing a series of profound insights: “In your country what was once a government of reason and law has been replaced by a tyranny of men. The sovereignty of the people has become a sovereignty of manipulators, politicians as conscious agents of a great deception, the power of which dements even more than it corrupts. Your society is divided into a tiny group of men who choose and decide, and a small number of others who know far less and decide nothing yet wield power in conformity with the hidden policies, those who gather in your congress to go through the motions of democracy’s ghost…” —The Sage
Explore knowledge that has long remained concealed under layers of deception and secrecy. A truly incomparable book for anyone interested in the welfare of their country, their personal welfare, and that of their family. 2021 Edition Kindle Unlimited Book, e-reader page count 353 (estimated, actual count varies with the reading device). For more information, please see the ‘Look Inside’ feature on the book’s Amazon page. Thank you.

PLAYHOUSES

About PLAYHOUSES:

Three cousins fiercely defended their roles within the sanctity of their playhouses. But a six-year stint in a fundamentalist religious organization thwarted Scott’s understanding of sexual orientation. Homosexuality was an insidious, infective spirit that conferred fear upon her adolescent naivete, eventually eroding relations between the cousins.
“Reconciling who we were took years, but survival led to relational ties without fear and a heart for activism in the face of rising institutionalized discrimination.” PLAYHOUSES is a journey from corrosive indoctrination to celebrating the difference in others.

How I Learned to Like My Mom: Forgive Those You Love … Before It’s Too Late by Dorenda Doyle

How I Learned to Like My Mom: Forgive Those You Love … Before It’s Too Late by Dorenda Doyle

Set in Southwest Oklahoma, this is the story of a beautiful, talented woman who drank too much, parented too little, and married SEVEN times. She just happened to be my mother, whom I loved, but decidedly did not like. Miles and years later, after being required to prepare her eulogy, I began to unravel my mother’s complicated life. The more I uncovered, the more I realized I had not known my mother well enough to like her. So, this is MY story as well–how I learned to like this mom I loved, how I came to realize that forgiveness is one of our greatest gifts, and ultimately, realizing that Mom, despite her many faults, taught me a most important lesson–to pull myself up by my bootstraps! This book is for anyone who had a difficult or traumatic childhood because of alcohol, abuse, divorce, neglect or poverty; most especially, it is for someone who needs forgiveness in their life.

Journey Through Fire and Ice: Shattered Dreams Above the Arctic Circle

About Journey Through Fire and Ice: Shattered Dreams Above the Arctic Circle:

At the age of twenty-three, Deanne Burch accompanied her husband, Ernest “Tiger” Burch to the Inuit village of Kivalina, Alaska, a barrier island 23 miles above the Arctic Circle. Tiger was conducting a participant study of the natives, whereas Deanne was a city girl – ethnocentric, naïve, and completely unprepared for the journey she was about to embark on. In Kivalina, she lived on the edge of two worlds – the one she left behind and the one where she reluctantly participated in all aspects of the women’s lives. Skinning seals, cleaning and drying fish, cutting beluga and caribou to store became her way of life. Plumbing, running water and electricity were not available. Loneliness was a constant companion, although she tried to be accepted by the Inuit women who were suspicious of all white women. Gradually Deanne adapted to living in a culture she knew nothing about. The midnight sun was followed by relentless darkness and brutal weather. With this came a journey into the unknown. First was a fateful camping trip where they nearly lost their lives, followed six days later by a fire in their house, an event that left Tiger badly burned. During the three months Tiger spent in the hospital, his only wish was to return to Kivalina and finish what he had started. Despite horrific burns on his face and hands and seared lungs from which he never recuperated, Tiger and Deanne returned to the village to complete the study. Instead of believing in fairy tales and happy endings, Deanne became a woman of strength ready to face the next challenge. Over fifty years later she remembers the young girl who left on an unknown journey. A journey that will live in her heart forever.

Backbone By S. Lynn

About Backbone By S. Lynn:

FREE on Kindle Unlimited!!

This is a story of growing up in a dysfunctional and abusive household and still managing to survive and even thrive

Unfortunately, I am not alone in having an abusive childhood and far too many people find themselves caught in a similar situation. They all have a story to tell; this is MY story.

I grew up in a small Southern town in the 1970s and 1980s. My father was an abusive alcoholic and my mother was co-dependent. The writing of this book was not easy for me. I had to revisit deeply painful moments from my past as did my siblings and mother who shared with me, their own recollections.

My wish is that my story will provide hope and encouragement for those who find themselves caught in dysfunctional families and relationships.

For those who are lucky enough to have had a more functional childhood yet now find themselves in a relationship with someone who didn’t; I hope this book provides a better understanding of the affects childhood trauma can have on the adults we become.

The time is now for me to share the story of how I learned that in spite of any circumstance, we have the power to change, rise above, face down our own demons and have a Backbone.

Secrets of the Masters, A Season in the Light by Michael Hawking, Jenna Wolfe Ph.D.

About Secrets of the Masters, A Season in the Light by Michael Hawking, Jenna Wolfe Ph.D.:

Free on Amazon April 13th and 14th. Composed from the journals of explorer Hawking’s sixty-two months in remote Himalayan regions of Nepal and Tibet, this book transports the reader into a legendary realm of light, a journey that leads to the discovery of the most refined and powerful paranormal knowledge possessed by the human race.
Explore a comprehensive account of Hawking’s various experiences and conversations with the legendary masters and sages of the Himalayas, including first-hand accounts of the extraordinary powers and abilities he witnessed and in-depth descriptions of the esoteric knowledge that make such remarkable capabilities possible. “There is no true teacher who in practice does not believe in the existence of the higher self, or in the magic that acts on it through the pursuit of knowledge. There is no desire more natural than the desire for knowledge. Learning is the movement from darkness to light.”
“Light is the fire that burns and the sun that gives life. Light is the wind and the rain and the thunder in the sky. Light is the heavens and the earth, what is and what is not, and what lies in Eternity.” —Seneca (4 B.C.-A.D. 65)
“A book, too, can be a star, a living fire to lighten the darkness, leading out into the expanding universe.” —Madeleine L’Engle
From the Author: “The secrets of the masters are powerful and profound, and one hopes they will bring great light into the lives of our readers, will offer them insight and guidance, will greatly expand their knowledge and power, will be validated by their experience, or, at the very least, will stimulate them to search further on their own. The philosophy expressed by the masters reflects as well the broader search of our culture at this particular stage of its development. The evolutionary viewpoints in this book reflect the emerging pattern of a seeking for our true place and direction in the Universe—a reawakening of a search begun by the original pre-Socratic philosophers, one that goes further back than even the roots of religion—the search for a true connection with our origins in the Cosmos that gave rise to us and within which we continue the creation our individual lives and the mass co-creation of the world we all share.” —M.G. Hawking
For anyone seeking advanced knowledge and expanded awareness, this is a book you will not forget. 2021 Edition Anthology, e-reader page count 320 (estimated, actual count varies depending on the reading device used).

King of X

About King of X:

Hello Readers! King of X is my autobiography( or Memoir), which depicts my life as a young adult in the 80’s and 90’s, and how I rose to power with the manufacture and distribution of a then popular drug known as Ecstasy. The story by no means is intended to glorify drug trafficking in any way, but to merely show how easy it is, especially at a young age, to get caught up in the lure of fast money.

Not in Vain, A Promise Kept By Melissa Mullamphy

About Not in Vain, A Promise Kept By Melissa Mullamphy:

FREE on Kindle Unlimited!!

While we waited for what was supposed to be a 24-hour biopsy turned into a four-day wait, nothing could have braced us for what came next. A nurse casually walked into my Mom’s room wearing what looked like nuclear fallout gear, dragging multiple yellow liquid IV bags and saying, “Hello Ms. Burns, I’m here with your chemotherapy to treat your cancer.” She had no accurate diagnosis, no doctor explanation, no staging or prognosis. Our Mom immediately started to cry, and any hope that we had that this nightmare mass could be benign was now gone. I was enraged, and this would be just the beginning of numerous medical mistakes, poor communication, false hope, and feelings of helplessness.

My goal in writing this book is to keep the promise that I made to my Mom, one late night in her hospital room while she was suffering yet another complication from cancer, to share her story, so others don’t go through what she and my family went through.

You can have input, control, and make a difference in your loved one’s healthcare.

You can be their best advocate.

You will learn lessons and tips to help you support your loved ones through example, help you find your voice, and understand your rights in a very complicated and imperfect healthcare system.
