    No matter how immense or unsolvable our situation may seem from the vantage point of the earth, they all seem small and manageable from the vantage point of the heavens. Our Heavenly Father is more than able to deal with anything we are confronted with in life.

    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.

    NEW EXTENDED VERSION OF Secrets of a Kept Woman by Shani Greene-Dowdell is available now.

    They say, truth shall set you free. Hmmm, well...

    Shayla, Rhonda and Gladys have been best friends since high school. Thicker than thieves, they have shared a lot over the years and it is their loving bond that has kept their tattered spirits alive. These ladies use their strong sisterly bond to coach each other back to sanity daily.Shayla Wilson is married one of the most influential players in the east Alabama drug ring. Though her lifestyle is lavish, she's unhappy in her marriage and dealing with her fly-by-night husband, Titus. An unexpected visitor at her doorstep might give her more than she asked for and she won't be sure if she can say no. Gladys LaQuinn has had it up to her neck with her cheating husband and after deciding to throw caution to the wind and go away for a weekend vacation...alone, a run in with her ex could be the life and death of her spirit. The way he awakens her mind, body, and soul leaves her with a lot to consider. Rhonda Jackson has lived beneath Shayla's wings for years, from being the second best majorette in high school, to the last chosen by men, to being an underrated data entry clerk by profession. She is unfulfilled, envious, and feels inadequate, but most of all she is struggling with a secret that will no doubt rock the very foundation this trio was built on.

    Every friendship is just one dark secret away from shattering it into a thousand pieces. They say the truth shall set you free -- but will it?

    In a moment of pique and frustration Virginia wrote an open letter to Oprah, and shared it with a few writer friends who are going through the same thing we are. Now the letter has started to go viral--getting a lot of repostings and inclusions in blogs, newsletters and on Facebook, so in case you hadn't seen it, we wanted to share our plight, the plight of many black authors with you, readers who have supported us all these years. http://twomindsfull.blogspot.com.

    In reality Oprah is just a metaphor--a name that might get this subject the attention it deserves. Because when you have a publication like Library Journal listing their 31 Best Books of 2009 http://ow.ly/HDU7 and the "genre" fiction list includes Street Lit --8 books but no category for contemporary African American writers, we are really in trouble.

    We are trying to encourage diversity in reading--we believe books should be windows, not just mirrors...

    Here is a blurb about my new book—ON THE CREST. Comments welcome: Tige Anderson goes through a series of emotional, physical and psychological adventures in this coming-of-age roller coaster, balancing his life among his romantic trysts, his ambitions, his humanity and his gay best friend. The one thread that connects all of the people in his life is the fact that the cycle of life puts everyone through a series of ups (‘on the crest’) and downs. Whether an individual winds up on top of the wave or under it depends on them. Please let me know if you would like to read the prologue. Tony Carmine.

    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?
