Greetings

Please read my book's summary, and enjoy;

Own Your Struggle is guaranteed, to change the way you view any challenge or problem in your life today. Even long-standing struggles will lessen their hold on you. Go ahead and read this richly original material to find out. Much of the prolonged stress and tension that people deal with, comes from how they resent being in a struggle.

A significant personal problem, is seen only the negative way. Furthermore, the human mindset is locked on repetitious thought patterns. They really block someone from recognizing the means, to deal with an unwanted situation. Therefore, a struggle has more power to shape how a person’s life turns out.

Using this book, it is very practical to see that there is no need to take defeat; while experiencing a challenge. It does not matter the extent to which you are affected. Own Your Struggle is a truly reliable leveraging tool. It equips you, the curious explorer, with sound skills and great insights, which influence how you behave; in the presence of something that is trying. Just give the book permission, to help bring your best qualities to life.

Ignacio Esteban | 448 comments Just released on Amazon, The Most Dangerous Crime Syndicates in Canada by retired ATF Special Agent Ignacio J. Esteban, author of 48 books published on Amazon including his autobiography ATF UNDERCOVER detailing his dangerous undercover cases, all his books are free for Kindle Unlimited Subscribers. He has also done numerous podcast shows as a guest discussing numerous topics including organized crime, politics, his autobiography and all his books.

Canadians refer to Canada as “The North” or “Hockey Nation” and are neighbors to the United States having the same problems with organize crime, street gangs, firearms trafficking, drug smuggling and gun violence as the U.S. The Italian Mafia, the violent biker gangs often knowns as one percenters, street gangs, drug organizations, firearms traffickers and other dangerous criminal groups thrive in the Maple Leaf nation. Many perceive the Canadian government soft on organize crime with a weak judicial system and a poorly managed socialist government. Major Canadian cities like Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver and others are gang infested with a high rate of gun violence even though Canada has extremely strict gun laws. At the end these laws only victimized law-abiding citizens from being able to protect themselves and their families from dangerous armed criminals. Gun control does not work.

In the 21st century, Canada is a weak socialist crime infested nation that has seen the violent crime syndicates grow while controlling their population in the name of socialist-leftist agenda. This is the shocking reality of “The North” and their failure to stop the growth of these violent syndicates.

He has also done numerous podcast shows as a guest discussing numerous topics including organized crime, politics, his autobiography and all his books.


In three weeks in October 2002, John Allen Muhammad (age 41 at the time) and Lee Boyd Malvo (age 17 at the time) traveled in a blue 1990 Chevrolet Caprice sedan killing indiscriminately ten people while wounding others in the Washington Metropolitan area and along I-95 in Virginia. These shootings captivated the United States and the world as the media spent hours covering the aftermath of each killing. Fear gripped the region as the shootings appeared random at any public location from gas stations, parking lots, stores and other places.
On October 24, 2002, the killers were arrested at a rest area at night in Myersville, Maryland near I-70. This would end a nation-wide killing spree that stared in February 2002.
This is the tragic story of the Beltway killers a ruthless duo that showed no mercy, killed indiscriminately and terrorized the nation in 2002.

Isa Millot | 8 comments Hello,
Here is my self-help book:

A coffee with Archangels is a self-help book about my spiritual journey, the life experiences that made me grow and the teaching of light that was transmitted to me by the Archangels.
A real practical guide that breaks the codes of classical spirituality in which it is sometimes difficult to identify, no more teachings that make us believe we are not good enough to make it! For my book, I have privileged a human dialogue, sharing life experiences that we can all encounter one day or another and the practical keys to effect a profound transformation. Because in my opinion, we all have talents, light and potential to reveal to the world... so that it can be better!

Synopsis here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

Available from Amazon: paperback: https://www.amazon.com/coffee-Archang...

Ebook actually free for kindle unlimited members:

Shakaila Forbes-Bell | 12 comments Big Dress Energy: How Fashion Psychology Can Transform Your Wardrobe and Your ConfidenceShakaila Forbes-Bell

Hello all,

I have just finished writing my debut book Big Dress Energy and I would love to have some reviews.

I think it's one of the first books of its kind, giving you a practical approach to style that incorporates scientific research, and insights into how to rewire your brain to see the deeper meaning behind your clothes, make-up and hair choices.

This is not your typical style guide! I don't tell you what to wear and how to get a signature style. I use my degree in fashion psychology to empower you with the knowledge to make shopping and styling decisions that will improve your wellbeing!

It's available at Amazon for people in Europe: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Big-Dress-En...

M.A. | 1 comments Hi everyone! I am a new author. My first full-size book is "Social Skills Teens Need to Survive High School."

I chose to write on this topic after observing young adults who struggles with communication skills. I researched and interacted with teens to learn more. What I found is that they feel like they never learned how to really talk to people and they have a lot of low self confidence.

The phrase I heard most was, "l never know to say."

I tried to create a guide that will not only help them identify who they are, what their values are, and what they want, but also assist in boundary setting and assertive communication.

If you are interested in learning more, you can use the "look inside" feature on Amazon to get a feel for my book.

It is available in Ebook and print versions.

New York City's many roads, bridges, neighborhoods and institutions bear the names of a colorful assortment of people from key periods in the city's history. Learning about the people iconic Gotham landmarks are named for is a unique window into the history of the greatest city in the world.

Serving wife/girlfriend:as a wife when You first focus on making your husband happy by helping him to overcome some of the challenges he is going through,comforting him and giving him attention,he will always love you and he will always give you his best.
This is because as a servant, you have made his needs more important than your needs,and that has made you to care for him with thinking too much about what you want from him,So that has also made your husband to love you more and to always value you.So because your husband have now grown to love you more due to your care and affection,he will always want to give you what you need,and he will even buy the things that you didn't ask for.He also buy you gifts that are beyond your imagination.
But when make your needs to become more important than Your husband's needs,then you will struggle to get things from him.your husband will hardly buy gifts and other things for you.This is because the fact that you always ask your husband about the things you want from him and then care less about how is day went,how stressful his day at work was,and you rarely tell him sweet words that will comfort him and make him happy,your husband will hardly grow to love you.
This is because he is not feeling any form of Affectionate love from you as a wife.Being selfish as a woman can make your husband to feel unloved,and because he is feeling unloved,he will want to speak to you violently.This is usually as a result of the hurts he is going through due to the selfishness of his wife.

He has also done numerous podcast shows as a guest discussing numerous topics including organized crime, politics, his autobiography and all his books.

On November 18th, 1978, over nine hundred cult followers of Jim Jones were killed or committed forced suicide at a remote settlement called “Jonestown” in the country of Guyana in South America. Almost all the victims died from cyanide poisoning and according to reports others were injected against their will. The term “Drinking the Kool-Aid” was coined after the mass-murder led by the fanatical Jim Jones who allegedly also ordered the murder of U.S. Congressmen Leo Ryan and other journalists who were there to investigate the alleged abuses at the settlement. This would be the worst cult mass-murder in U.S. history.

This is the life of Jim Jones from cult leader to mass murder the likes the world had never seen. The tragedy of Jonestown and his perverse suicidal revolution.

Met the End explores the life and death of John Powell, first known victim of American serial killer Donald Harvey, through the eyes of Powell’s daughter. Through research, interviews, and introspection, author Holly Brians Ragusa steers into the tragedy of her family’s past, braced for a collision, and finds reclamation.

What is Scientology? Is it a new religion or a cult that takes advantage of their members? An American author named L. Ron Hubbard founded the Church of Scientology in the 1950s and has grown with over 40,000 members worldwide.

Many governments around the world have described Scientology as a dangerous cult with controversial business practices that is modeled more as business for profit than a religious institution while exploiting their members.

Through out the years, there have been numerous allegations against the organization to include physical violence by top officials against staff members, a disconnection policy for members against friends and family who do not support their ideas, baseless lawsuits against the media and critics of Scientology and defectors criticizing how followers are treated.
There are many Hollywood celebrities that are Scientologist including Tom Cruise and John Travolta with many in the public wondering if they are being extorted by this so-called church to retain these high-profile members.

This is the history of the Church of Scientology from its humble beginnings to a global menace around the world while seen by many as pariah preying on the weak and vulnerable as most religious cults do.

When William J. Lee wrote Us in 1974 he was concerned about our future – many of those problems still exist today.

“Why should anything I think or say have any degree of wisdom or any bearing on anyone else or the future? I cannot give the answer. All I know and feel (as I am sure so many thousands throughout the world feel and have felt throughout generations) is that the people who have lived and who now live on this planet Earth have not succeeded in so ordering their lives to live in peace and harmony with each other to obtain the best return for their labours and from the resources available to the world.

To the contrary I consider humanity is racing towards destruction at least economically if not physically.

In this climate therefore I have felt obliged to write this since I do believe that I shall pass through this world but this once and therefore if I can do anything to highlight our desperate situation in the hope that it may inspire as many as possible of US to do something for ourselves and future generations I shall feel that I have not lived in vain.”

Ignacio Esteban | 448 comments Just released on Amazon, The Face of Domestic Terrorism: Timothy McVeigh by retired ATF Special Agent Ignacio J. Esteban, author of over 60 books published on Amazon including his autobiography ATF UNDERCOVER detailing his dangerous undercover cases, all his books are free for Kindle Unlimited Subscribers. ATF Undercover is now available as an audio book on Audible. He has also done numerous podcasts as a guest discussing numerous topics including organized crime, politics, his autobiography and all his books.

On April 19, 1995, Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols planned and executed the deadliest act of domestic terrorism in United States history at the Alfred P. Murrah federal building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. These two anti-government extremists used close to 5,000 pounds of ammonium nitrate fuel oil (ANFO) in their domestic attack using a Ryder truck that was parked by McVeigh in front of the federal building. He would use a fuse to detonate the bomb inside the truck killing 168 people, injuring over 600, destroying the building and damaging others in a 16-block radius causing over 600 million dollars in damages.

This heinous act committed by McVeigh and Nichols would lead to their arrest, conviction and sentence. On June 11, 2001, McVeigh was executed by lethal injection at the U.S. federal penitentiary in Terre Haute, Indiana. Nichols received a life sentence for his role in this gruesome attack.

What drove McVeigh to commit this unspeakable act of violence towards innocent people killing nearly twenty children in the buildings’ day care center? He was a decorated Army Gulf War veteran and became very angry against the U.S. government for their roles in Ruby Ridge and Waco and wanted to inspire a violent uprising against what he saw as a tyrannical government. This is the life of Timothy McVeigh from war veteran to the worst domestic terrorist in U.S. history.

Peter (pdinuk) | 14 comments Hello all,
My third book on the British WW2 Special Operations Executive was published on 4th April.
Return to Vienna The Special Operations Executive and the Rebirth of Austria (Special Operations Executive #3) by Peter Dixon is available worldwide. The Amazon link https://mybook.to/Vienna now takes you to the ebook (at a reduced launch price), paperback and hardback formats. Many, of course, do not hold Amazon in high regard, but any book store can order it (ISBN 978-1-9160273-9-8 Paperback, 978-1-915842-00-8 Hardback).
Return to Vienna is especially for anyone with an interest in history, but according to one 5* editorial review, 'at its heart, this is a human story brimming with emotion, triumph, heartache, and tragedy'.
Of course, I welcome feedback (and reviews!).
Peter

Maria Fledgling Author  Park (windy1one) | 1 comments Hi everyone! I'm writing a memoir of my life covering my recovery from childhood sexual abuse by my father, the Catholic priests and the adult experiences of rape, being shot and knifed by employers and intimate partners.

I now live a very vibrant life full of joy and hope to provide a roadmap for people who have had similar experiences to get out of the trauma cycle sooner.

I'm actively looking for mentors and/or fols who have experience self publishing similar books who would be interested in communicating with me.

Thank you!

J.J. Suff | 2 comments Greetings! I’m a newbie stumbling along, finding it all very fascinating. The proverbial “The more you learn the more you realize you don’t know s---!” seems to understate my start in the Indie Author realm.

My first book is out in spite of myself, Amazon link is below. I chose non-fiction since it does center on US Federal Government dysfunction and waste, and suggestions to help reduce it. But it’s also a funny memoir of the possibly disturbing story of my 30 plus years being in the middle of a gong-show I still am strangely grateful for too. My valued Homies who helped develop it seem to love how it turned out, but it’s of most interest probably to fellow Feds or others toiling in government or similar giant disorganizations.

One of the many points I didn’t have much of a clue on was trying to get reviews. I’ve seen great content elsewhere on this site regarding that, including that one should not trade a review for a review. But if “Bureaucracitis” interests a fellow Indie who may want a complimentary copy to review, please email me at jbed54@yahoo.com.

Thank you all for this group. I’m an optimist, even a trusting fool at times, but I believe there’s a sense of teamwork here with most wanting the best for each other and not seeing it as competing authors at all. Let’s support each other’s writing goals!

JJ Suff (Pen-Name)
