    Therone Shellman, Author, Entrepreneur and Visionary says

    Greetings!
    Survivor I Changed the Rules Part 1 available via kindle
    Therone Shellman the elder of four children who were taken away from their mother when he was four and thrown into the NYC foster care system. In and out of different homes he and his sister went. He was a child thinking about adult issues like survival and having to look out for his younger sister. At the age of fifteen dissatisfied with the dysfunctional parents who adopted them both, and a school system he felt was biased he turned his back on both and sought the streets. From hustling at fifteen, to pulling stick ups at sixteen, Shellman found himself at the age of seventeen being sentenced to ‘four to twelve” years in prison.
    In an honest and brutal way Shellman tells his life story from a powerless child to a power crazed and misdirected youth, survival of the fittest on the streets and in some of the roughest prisons in New York State. Throughout the story you witness his search for self peace and spiritual growth as he sought to balance his troubled life which would ultimately lead him through real life threatening situations where by chance and a little wit he would overcome time and time again. And finally some way some how an awakening rose up within him to change his life and write stories which would help others.
    "Survivor" I Changed the Rules is not just a memoir or biography, it is a testament about how strong the human spirit is and the ability within all of us to rise above the chains which imprison us.

    A. Michaelson says

    Hello, Big mama. I’m the author of The Sandal Maker, a new novel about the public ministry of Jesus from a unique point of view, a little controversial at times, but you will see him as never before. It’s a story that will take you on a fascinating journey in first century Galilee. Have you ever wondered what is was like to live in those times? What part did women play in his ministry? Was he the first feminist? Were the miracles real? Why did Judas betray the Master? How does the gospel of Jesus compare to the gospel according to Peter and Paul? This is a “must read” for those on a true spiritual quest. You can read reviews at Amazon.com. I’m including a link to copy and paste. Let me know what you think.

    Hey,

    Not too sure if I told you, but my latest Harlequin Kimani, Meet Me In Paris is a September release. It’s been getting good reviews on Amazon and was listed as one of Harlequin’s Top 10 Best Road Trip Reads for the Summer. Romantic Times gave it 4 stars, so you might want to give it a try. Simona

  • "Mz. Cool" Author of "CHUBBY": The Hydraulics of a Neurotic says

    "CHUBBY" is urban fiction, drama, suspense, humor, ghetto, cheating, families in crisis, mystery, horror, love & sex, a could not put down, a must read and brand new. You won't be disapointed! You'll love it! Get ready to laugh, cry, empathize, anticipate and experience the hydraulics!

    Change didn't come when her father tried to open her ryes to the wrong choices she would make or when a Madame became her mentor. Or when she married the preacher's son. Not even when she became a crack addict and her girlfriend became the "snake" who CHUBBY thought was the denominator in the death of her child. Change didn't come when she was pilfered for every dime she had or when she tried to commit suicide almost rendering her insane. No, change didn't come to better CHUBBY's life until she came face-to-face with the unspeakable. Not until then was she forced to take a look at her past. Yes, this rude awakening would be the beginning of her sanity and eventually the overall sweet smell of revenge and an entire newfound life.

    "CHUBBY" is the gritty soul depiction of the reclamation of an addict's dignity. One can't help but to share her agony and think that she somehow manages to escape from the clutches of her twisted life in the streets of St. Louis.

    MARLENE says

    Hi Friend,
    My new book, ISLAND BEAUTY comes out today and I would love it if you would check it out and purchase a personalized copy. I would really appreciate your support. To purchase book or check out my other books please visit www.newworldpublish.webs.com Thank you and have a blessed day!

    “ISLAND BEAUTY is the best piece Marlene have ever written. She have really matured as a writer. I think it would even make a good movie. There is great suspense and conflict. Marlene shows life and how it really is, even when we think we have good friendships, life can throw us a curve ball. I really enjoyed reading her story it was great, the tone was good and it was exciting. Keep up the good work!”

    Gidorah Matthews Author Of:
    Methuselah's Rainbow
    The Secret Exposed: What Every Christian Should Know
    The Windowsill Children Series

    Sage Churchill has always had the best of everything, a loving father that gave her everything her heart desired and good friends to kick it with, which always made life more exciting. She thought her life was perfect, until the day her father makes a deathbed confession that shatters her world as she knows it.
    When Sage finds out that her mother, whom she was led to believe died, may be alive and living in Jamaica, her world is turned upside down. She is faced with the toughest decision of her life. Does she search for a woman she’s never known or does she ignore her longing for a mother’s love?
    Sage, Nicky, Tish, and Lace have been friends since pre-school. But their relationship suffers when they bring the drama to Sage’s doorstep. Her girl, Nicky, has gotten herself involved in the drug game and has Sage’s name all caught up in the mix, bringing the authorities to her door. Tish, has a mystery lover and when that person’s identity is revealed, it may tear the girls’ thirteen year friendship apart and possible cause one of them to lose their life.
    Will Sage find her mother and live happily ever after? Will she survive the drama? Or have a nervous breakdown?
